cabbage with beef and carrots 1/2 lb ground beef (i used 80/20 ground chuck) ~cup of sliced carrots, steamed, cut into coins, then frozen ~1/4th head of cabbage (use as much as you want, you can stretch the flavor from the beef and sauce quite far) 4oz white wine 2oz soy sauce 2tbsp ground ginger 2 tsp turmeric 2 tsp paprika 3tbsp orange marmalade (if you aren't using a very sweet one, you will want sugar/corn syrup to add to taste) 1tbsp red wine vinegar
skillet or frying pan on med-low heat, crumble the beef into pea-sized bits and add to skillet with frozen carrots, trying to cover the most surface area possible let them be for a little while while they build up a fond, you want them to get rather crispy on the bottom and you don't want them to burn. this stage took about 10 minutes for me, but stoves vary once the fond is pretty decent, stir a bit and let the other sides (previously the top) of the carrots and beef brown a little while you raise the heat after 1-2 mins, place all the cabbage (sliced into shreds, about 1.5cm thin and a pinky's length-ish) on top of the beef and carrots, add the spices and wet ingredients (except the marmalade, hold that!) and leave covered on low heat for about 5 minutes or until the cabbage has softened (but before it gets too floppy, this is a preference thing though so don't worry too much about being exact) then cook uncovered on medium heat, stirring occasionally until the liquid has reduced heavily, almost gone. add the orange marmalade and cook for 1-2 more minutes
serve over white rice or noodles, but with rice let it sit for a few minutes while the sauce seeps in
!C0.PerkELE
frozen? gives them crunch?
Anno
>>834642 nah, for storage, but i figured i should mention because if you use raw carrots or carrots that aren't cold it wouldn't work if someone followed this recipe
Anno
oh also, i'll try this recipe once quarantine is over with more traditional asian ingredients like rice vinegar and mirin limited options at the moment because supplies can be difficult to acquire
Anno
Would you be subbing out the white wine and red wine vinegar for the rice vinegar and mirin
Anno
>>834645 yeah, and probably using fresh ginger and maybe even a dried chili in a mortar and pestle instead of the ground ginger and paprika
Anno
Feels like it starts to have a lot of overlap with Japanese-style curry. Not that it's a bad thing just an observation.
The curry place I visited in Japan had a thing where you could literally get as much cabbage with your order as you wanted. And the basic serving you could already get basically came with a mountain of the stuff too. Shredded cabbage is a pretty good complement to those kinds of dishes.
!C0.PerkELE
i should make borsch or cabbage soup i miss my 10l pot
Anno
i have a tendency to dislike adhering to traditionalist ideas when i'm cooking i use a lot of methods borrowed from different styles of cooking with pretty much anything i make so like the japanese style of shoyu, mirin, and komezu used in almost everything is kind of like a principle i apply to a lot of dishes except it's more like (wine/alcohol), (vinegar), (salt+glutamate source) i really like combining the mexican pilaf method of making rice (with tomato sauce and spices and onions) to a more curry-style of flavor and ingredients in fact i think doing a pilaf with fried rice ingredients is usually an easy way to make a fried-rice adjecent dish without needing leftover rice on hand or using a lot of oil
Anno
>>834641 Would you say cooking the cabbage in with the rest adds something to it overall or would it be fine to keep it aside and serve it relatively uncooked. I kinda like the crispness of raw cabbage.
Anno
>>834650 if you want the cabbage to be really crispy and raw, i'd just skip the steaming step you'll definitely want to use a deep frying pan (or even one of those half-woks//// actually i take that back, you'd want a frying pan) instead of a skillet, but i think the flavor of cooked cabbage is a little better and you want the cabbage to really get the sauce in there so maybe reducing the sauce a bit first and then adding the cabbage near the end and skipping the steaming step would get you the best of both worlds i used a skillet and if i didn't steam the cabbage it wouldn't have fit at all but a large frying pan would've been a better choice from the beginning for either method
Anno
We've got large frying pans, decently deep skllets, a small-size wok. My mother really likes collecting kitchen utensils. Could add the pre-requisite cabbage to the dish and just keep some on the side to serve raw. Kinda hard to have too much cabbage.
Anno
yeah i wasn't sure what to notate for the amount of cabbage because i only used about 1/3 a head of cabbage but i figure more people would want more meat and carrots maybe but you could honestly use more than half a head of cabbage with the same amount of beef and carrots because the cabbage is so good on it's own and the other ingredients are mostly there to lend their flavor to the sauce and therefore to the cabbage and rice

>>834658 The price arc generally follows a pattern, so unless you're feeling REALLY lucky and you'll get an exception to the pattern, you'll usually get your highest prices on like Wednesday or Thursday. Waiting until Saturday trying to hold out for a better price is usually just gonna end in tears. They should have just sold on one of those days and cut their losses, the pattern usually has a sharp decline in prices Friday and Saturday.
I bought the turnips for 110 Bells so I'm still technically in the green, although a nine Bell per turnip profit would be pretty disappointing. But it means the price could still dip a bit and I wouldn't lose much. So I'm comfortable waiting to see how things turn out.
rook

But that takes all the fun out of the risk!
If I didn't want to gamble I'd just keep an eye out for people with good prices that are inviting people over. There's like millions of people playing the game there's got to be on any day of the week at least a few people with prices in like the 500-700 range.
go for maximum profit and keep paying that infinite debt
Anno
But I'm already on the final debt. It's only 2.4 or something million Bells. I'll probably want another few million to make sure I've got enough funds for all the relocating and building I'll be doing with my island design but after that, I'm pretty much down to no major expenses.
The day-to-day turnip checking and calculating/hedging bets is a lot of fun for me and honestly a driving motivator for me getting out of bed before noon these days. I don't want to spoil that just because I could more reliably make faster profits.
The delays keep coming and they don't stop coming, eh.
There's been quite a few shows this season that have had delay announcements.
It's nice that the game and animation studios are giving their employees, well, not a break, but the time they need to shift into a work-from-home environment. But I do worry there's gonna be a drought of content in the next few months. I'll shrivel out without content!
>>834665 this is an indie studio I think, but for some reason I just read the >There have certainly been challenges in adapting to game development in a Work From Home environment azx "It is hard to make people crunch at home"
Anno
Having spent a bit of time how game studios do production pipelines, learning how even, I'm a bit familiar with the infrastructure. There probably is some time needed to adapt that localized infrastructure into something that can be securely accessed from remote locations.
Also the employees might not have the hardware at home to develop and test the things they're working on at the studio, which means they either need to set up new stations at the employee's home or move the hardware from the studio to the home.
Like I get you like to pick the cynical hypothesis in pretty much every situation but there are very understandable issues of logistics here that would interrupt the work flow.
I got like an hour of sleep after the game last night which kept me functional enough to at least make it through anime. But then when I went to sleep for the night proper I ended up waking less than three hours later. Guess I don't get to be well-rested yet.

he ended up losing to the final guy, who I think was also the 1st one to enter the ring

Yesterday I got informed by my parents that over the next month they're gonna be seriously packing up the house and getting it ready to be sold. Which comes with the added detail of us having to be out of it so people can come in to tour it. This isn't a big deal for my parents, since they've pretty much all but made the cottage up north their main home during the pandemic, since my dad can quite easily work remote and there's not really a school system in place at the moment for my mother to be working in. But for me, it kinda throws a lot off kilter. We're supposed to some time this year have condos in the city finished that we can move into but definitely not in the timeframe that my parents have for wanting to clear house. And I really don't want to be up north in the country for however long it would take for them to be ready. I just don't really enjoy being up there.
Thankfully there is a second option. My brother and his girlfriend are much more content to spend time up north -- over the weeks we've already been in shutdown they've all but moved in up there anyway, which means their apartment here in the city is all but being left unused. Apparently they'd be quite fine with me setting up camp there for the interim period we don't have a house in the city ourselves. It's still a good bit of an unnerving notion, since I'd have to be moving and for the first time have to figure out sustaining myself on my own, but on the other hand, I wouldn't have to totally abandon the city. Plus I don't think they need me to cover rent for them? So it sounds like a really good deal.
In the long term though it's a much larger problem though since I thought I had until winter to get set working and have money for rent for living by myself. Now I've got a much smaller timeframe for that, and there isn't exactly a whole lot of work for me to apply for since everything is shut down. If I can't provide rent for myself I'd be stuck in the one of the two city condos my parents are
my boss is surprisingly good at paying me for my work when i was doing 40 hour weeks for no pay he's the one who took the initiative to start paying me i am underpaid though lol
idk if i'll do this for him yet might be a pain
Anno
>>835015 keeping for the family (they want to rent the second out), which is a two bedroom apartment. My imouto would probably still be living at home, and apparently she already gets the second bedroom, which would relegate me to a personal space of the condo's den, which probably wouldn't have much than enough space for a sofa or narrow bed and a desk, which sounds pretty awful. I've talked about beign the renter for the second, single-bedroom condo they also bought, but again, no work, no money for rent.
So short term, things are a bit troublesome but probably fine, but this news has really messed up any plans I've had for long-term situations.
>>835015 >>835020 One month is really short notice. Even if it didn't mess with long term planning, that would be really stressful.
If you don't have to cover rent staying in the city, that might be a good idea. But would you be able to afford food and stuff? Living on your own for the first time is pretty weird and scary but I think it's a valuable experience.
especially, you could maybe dish out to someone you know who works in the field
!C0.PerkELE

Anno
>>835022 There's a students benefit as part of the Covid-19 emergency response that I'm pretty sure I'm applicable for, which would be 1250 CAD for four months. That would barely cover rent here but if I don't have to pay for that, it'll easily cover living expenses otherwise. Plus I can probably save the rest and maybe use it as leverage to get my parents to take me on as a renter for the second condo.
!C0.PerkELE

>>835026 If I wanted to live in anything more than a studio or single-bedroom apartment it wouldn't even. It also wouldn't even cover if I wanted to live someplace decent. Rent here is expennnnsivvvve
But also probably on a downswing because for the period of the pandemic, landlords have been forbidden from putting up rental places for short-term tenants like AirBnB. So all of a sudden they're panicking pretty hard since all their profitable rent investments don't have suitors and it is flooding the rental market with a bunch of new units. And y'know, basic economics, sudden influx of supply into a market usually drives prices down.
four years ago the cheapest most derelict apartments i could find in this city were $800/mo today they're probably $900 minimum since the rent goes up so much every year

Dr. Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
>>835035 Yeah, that's a good point. Why is it being sold so soon, anyway?
Anno
My parents want to put it up for sale ASAP, probably because they're really banking on the sale providing them with money. They've raised four kids and at least tried to put them all through post-secondary education, on pretty average middle-class incomes. That probably results in quite a bit of debt built up. Over the years this neighbourhood has had quite the large increase in land value, I think when we bought the house as a bungalow it was like 250,000, now with it renovated as a two-story and in the neighbourhood, it should probably easily go for over a million. With a place up north and looking to have two condos owned, plus this house, that starts to be a lot of property my parents are owning. They want to retire up north so they're looking to keep that place for several decades, the condos in the city are interim living spaces until they can retire. By process of elimination this house is of no value if not sold, and they probably want it sold by the end of the year so they can stop paying property tax on it.
So they probably want it sold quick so it stops being a money drain and so they can pay off their debts and retire comfortably within the next five years.
!C0.PerkELE
just a weird timing to do it hope they don't have to wait super long to get it sold my father when he sold his last place took around 4 months or so to get it sold
then again it was an unconventional 2 story appartment house in a region that doesn't have the best fame
Anno
In any other timeline the house would probably go fast. Like I said, or well, maybe insinuated, this is a pretty hot neighbourhood as far as real estate goes. But it's already been observed here that people aren't exactly looking to do a big move in the middle of the shutdown. So yeah, could just sit empty for a decent while.

Anno
>>835052 So pretty much what already happened here, hah hah AirBnB got more or less banned and all of a sudden the rental market was flooded with a Totally Inexplicable supply of units.
Yeah, airbnb has actually caused quite a crisis in most of the world. It's lowered the number of apartments and stuff available which has caused prices to skyrocket even more. And because they aren't long-term homes, it's become harder for people to find housing. Airbnb is really a blight on humanity.
and to think it started out as "you individual, make some extra cash, rent your sofa"
Anno
It Sounded Like A Good Idea At The Time
I think it doesn't help that the owner doesn't really need to have much of a local presence either. Though this might be entirely incorrect since I don't know how setting yourself up to rent works in it.
A lot of Canadian real estate markets are being used as fortunes holding for people from overseas, which ends up meaning a lot of empty units in condo buildings. It's such an annoying aspect but every time a deterrent is put into place to try and reduce it, the investors just ignore the extra costs and keep doing it.

The government paid him well for every bushel of alfalfa he did not grow. The more alfalfa he did not grow, the more money the government gave him, and he spent every penny he didn't earn on new land to increase the amount of alfalfa he did not produce. Major Major's father worked without rest at not growing alfalfa. On long winter evenings he remained indoors and did not mend harness, and he sprang out of bed at the crack of noon every day just to make certain that the chores would not be done. He invested in land wisely and soon was not growing more alfalfa than any other man in the county.

i see lots of interesting psychopathology as a psychologist but somehow the degree of delusion i see on twitter always amazes me
>Philip K. Dick belived that he was a Christian from Roman occupied Syria in the year 50 and all the intervening years were lies meant to trick him into giving up his christianity and I'm literally a fae who replaced a human baby in childhood, so I can relate. is something someone just told me unironically
>>835155 >This guy who did a shitload of hallucinogenic drugs throughout his adult life believed some real crazy stuff so it's totally normal for me to as well.
that is at a point where you don't even know where toapproach it from
Dr. Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
seriously i'm someone with six years of mental health experience who has successfully defended a dissertation for their doctorate in clinical psychology and there's nothing i can respond
>>835164 I think all that can be really said is there is documentation of him being a normal human being before his history of recreational drugs. Or, there's no evidence to prove that people have past lives they can remember living and everything is conjecture. If they're uninterested in believing in normalcy I don't think there's much to do for them though. People will want to think they're unique or special until they come up against the flat rock wall of they aren't.
>>835172 In the end, don't we all live in our own realities
Anno
Sure, but there's a difference between living in a reality based off the mundane world around us and living in a reality based off a supernatural fantasy.
Dr. Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
i mean it's fine to live in a supernatural fantasy world if it doesn't get in the way of activities of daily living and your ability to function in society go ahead and believe that you're a fairy if you can still do everything you need to do, i mean, who am i to tell you not to
but most people who have these weird delusions cant even step outside this same person told me that measuring rice with a measuring cup was so stressful for them that trying it would make them break down in tears
Anno
That's a level of neurosis I really can't fathom.

In a lot of ways I doubt it's possible to reach that level of neurosis and still be able to spend all day on twitter lol idk these people are weird
Anno
And I'm someone who insists on measuring out rice by the cup because I need my ratios to be PRECISE
>>835179 i was trying to teach people to make rice in a group chat that im in and i told them that it doesn't need to be 100% perfect with the cup line and they said that it did and trying to make it level caused them to break down in tears lol

>>835176 Honestly, I think believing you're a fae is inherently incompatible with the activities of daily living and to a degree your ability to function in society. Fae are usually creatures of absolute selfish interest and sociopathy to anything that doesn't strike their fancy. If you're an actual sociopath and you earnestly think you're a fae, sure, I guess you picked your crowd accurately. But y'know how a lot of people these days think they can act like an asshole here or there and think "Man I'm such a sociopath". Believing you're a fae is gonna make you want to act like one, but you're not actually acting like a sociopath you're just being an ass. Go too far and I think you'd be acting in a severe detriment to yourself.

which might explain this comment about philip k dick >He was clearly a horrible person, but he was also very relatable in a lot of ways.
Dr. Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
>>835186 Unfortunately, one part of these types of delusions is "Yes, it's different from everything recorded, but the records are wrong, as evidenced by me, a real life fae." We see this pretty commonly with people who believe they're the devil or Jesus you point out contradictions in their logic and they immediately have an excuse as to why that's not a contradiction
they're delusional they don't want to be the devil, they just believe they are the devil and that they dont have any choice in that matter i've seen others believe they're being forced to join ISIS and shit like that lol
If you want to really get into how ridiculous these delusions can get, check out Three Christs of Ypsilanti A case study of what happens when you put three people who delusionally believe they are Jesus Christ together
Dr. Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
>While initially the three patients quarreled over who was holier and reached the point of physical altercation, they eventually each explained away the other two as being patients with a mental disability in a hospital, or dead and being operated by machines.[5] The graduate students who worked with Rokeach on the project have been strongly critical of the morality of the project because of the amount of dishonesty and manipulation by Rokeach and the amount of distress experienced by the patients.[2] Rokeach added a comment in the final revision of the book that, while the experiment did not cure any of the three Christs, "It did cure me of my godlike delusion that I could manipulate them out of their beliefs."[2]

>dead and being operated by machines How on earth did they figure this to be as feasible as being a patient with a mental disability.
Though the latter is getting hilariously close to ironic selfwareness.
Dr. Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
>The Christs explain one another’s claims to divinity in predictably idiosyncratic ways: Clyde, an elderly gentleman, declares that his companions are, in fact, dead, and that it is the “machines” inside them that produce their false claims, while the other two explain the contradiction by noting that their companions are “crazy” or “duped” or that they don’t really mean what they say.

Dr. Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
>>835195 I love the idea of it. It's been hilarious to me for years and it makes so much sense that they'd see it that way but it's so funny
Anno
In the end you can't argue someone out of a notion they fully believe in. No matter how polished your rhetoric or solid your evidence. And when they're legitimately delusional about it then its your evidence versus their evidence. People are gonna usually want to side with their own evidence rather than let another replace it.
>>835199 Yeah, it's totally sensible. That's why I don't even try to challenge delusions. It's impossible. All you do is end up wrapped up in the delusion. If I tell you that you're not actually Jesus, then I'm going to end up as a demon, and nothing I can do will be able to help you in the future.
So how do you actually cure delusions speaking of delusions https://mangadex.org/title/45491/reiko-s-style-despite-being-mistaken-for-a-rich-villainess-she-s-actually-just-penniless you might find this manga funny
Some psychotic episodes are brief and go away on their own. When the episode ends, the delusions typically stop or can be corrected at that point. Typically, you want to treat delusions with antipsychotics, though. Once the person can think again, you can work with them.
Sometimes delusions spontaneously end as well but that's pretty rare.
Delusional episodes can also occur from sleep deprivation and later develop into a fullblown brief psychotic episode.
>>835202 >But little could she expect that, on her very first day of classes, she would be tackled from behind by another girl who, convinced that she's been reincarnated into the world of an otome game, accuses Reiko of being a wealthy villainess...!
>>835203 yeah the girl is delusional and thinks she is reincarnated into an otomegame as a side character
it is bit of a deconstruction of the otomegame isekai thing as is, but amusing atleast 3 chapters in
!C0.PerkELE
the setting itself, the characters and so on https://www.novelupdates.com/series/kenkyo-kenjitsu-o-motto-ni-ikite-orimasu/ all are clearly inspired by this, which is much more straightforward normal story tho a fun read too

>>835210 Have you had a chance to get into Tower of God's anime yet?
Anno
My scalp is really irritated today. Especially along the hairline. >>835213 Yeah that's what English is usually getting at when they talk about a body part being irritated. At least when it's skin-level.
>>835212 irritated translates to "ärsyyntynyt" which in this case would mean like sensitive, sore, etc but not itchy per se
Anno
Because there's a degree of inference going on. My scalp is being irritated by something, ergo it is itchy. Itchiness is a symptom of the problem, not the problem itself. Though it is annoying in its own right.
I am bit curious on how did they actually remove them
really illustrates how buildings, atleast here - especially in the 70s and 80s, are just giant lego houses

>>835217 Also you should grab and watch episode three of Kaguya-sama season two. It was the moonviewing chapter this episode and it did Shirogane babbling about the moon and Kaguya short-circuiting for five minutes justice.
I suggested to a classmate that I was a bit disappointed that nobody made sure I knew about that zoom thing the other day because I would have gone, and they just stopped responding to me completely lol
'deed but apparently they finally realised that their whole womble cringe approach to customer service and marketing didn't pay off
"so hey, we have this good program that could easily be marketed to other people than nerd and gamers, who also btw hate our shtick, so how about we drop it and actually behave like a proper company and maybe spread out during this global shut down where communication devices and applications are key"
!C0.PerkELE
personally I'd recommend jitsi no need to install anything works on any browser
Anno
Zoom also provided the service for free when the pandemic started increasing remote work neccessity. So they seduced a lot of people in with that and then basically rode to stardom on the positive news.
Well jitsi would prolly burn into ashes if it got 100 million users out of the blue or something
needs a large company like zoom to actually tackle the needs Dunno if discord could do it their servers are quite bad already with mainly gamer/etc userbase
I feel that's kind of on them as much as it's on the porting company. Did they just ... not keep communication with the porting company on the state of their game? I think that's kind of irresponsible on their part.

>>835242 It seems like it's a fine Switch port. There's just some weird circumstances around its release that left the developers in the dark of when it was releasing.

I wish the next cat I get, is a cat that likes to ride on shoulders/head
!C0.PerkELE
maybe I should go to russia to laern how to tame cats
Anno
I wouldn't want a cat climbing on top of my head. Shoulders are one thing, but claws digging into my scalp as it tries to keep comfortable sounds like a nightmare.
russians/eastern europeans seem to have some trick of getting cats to behave they walk their cats with no leashes etc and they just follow them around
or go outside, and obediantly wait at some point at SET time when the owners come back from work
like this one cat at my father's palce, that pretty much just walks around a parking lot wall *on top of a parking lot wall and then jumps on the owner's head/shoulder, when they come back from work and then they take it back inside
there is some weird trick that the slavs know on how to get their cats to be basically "leashed cats" without the leash
Dr. Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
my cat likes to ride on my shoulder and be carried around in fact lazarus' favorite thing is to hang out on my shoulder while i walk around
Anno
Mine haaaates being carried around. She'll be okay with being held some times as long as you're standing still, but the moment you start walking she wants no part of it.
If I can ever get another cat in the future I'm gonna try and get it comfortable with a cat leash. I'd like to let it walk around because I'll probably be cooped up in apartments or condos for the next decade or so and I believe that cats lead more full lives if they can go outside instead of being housecats 24/7.
>>835249 >>835250 i am technically of slavic ancestry since my family came from ukraine
I think it's more Lazarus than me, though. He gets anxiety if he isn't around me. He follows me into whatever room I'm going into, even if I'm only going to be in there for a minute.
I think there's some kind of Canadian Covid-19 charity concert on the television in the living room and I am once again reminded how little I want to be stuck in close proximity to my family for extended periods of time.

was anyone in the movie "evil" no the main family was always looking for itself, no matter what the rich family was always looking for itself, no matter what the other familywas alwauys...
so when the Father decided to go full stab stab on RichFather, that was in a way uncalled for Richdad, could not have known, that it was poordad's daughter who was dying
ofc there was also the elitism etc in the game but well, if your "servants" smell bad, why would you keep them that is risking yourself potentionally to diseases if you can afford to switch them why not?
it is like switching bad boots or moving to a better place from a moldy appartment
Only thing that really took me out of the movie was the family's decision to ALL go out and start boozing themselves in the mansion
like what? why would you ever do taht complete lunacy that spellt "PLOT IS HAPPENING" ofc I couldn't predict what was going to happen and how it ended up, which was damn welcome surprise but nonetheless I could predict DRAMA AND FUCKTON
best scene of the movie nonetheless is the monsoon/typhoon storm and how rain and shit keeps draining downwards and how the mainfamily gets the worst of it
but the rich family is all "man this storm sure made the weather good and clear"
I think that line alone tells half of the message the movie tries to tell
and people ask why do we have an employment shortage, and at the same time HUGE youth unemployment levels
