@user-5 It's still best to make vegan food without substitutes. They're tasty
and delicious, (which is new), but they're not that great for you and kind of
expensive. If your normal diet is mostly fresh fruits and vegetables with some
lentils and grains, you're on the right track imho. But still they can be fun
sometimes, and the melted vegan cheese enables nachos and mac&cheese so...
worth it

a box of tri-color rotini
a good spoonfull of better than boullion italian
a medium amount of large colby-jack cheese cubes (about one for every other
bite)
boil with just enough water for the noodles to start sticking to the pan once
entirely cooked and add cheese, butter, and top with generous dashes of smoked
paprika and lime juice.
don't strain the noodles. have just enough water left to have a thin sauce.
if vegetables are desired, firm carrots and peas (read: frozen or fresh, not
canned) or diced/shredded onions.

Highly recommend "Better than Boullion" - if your recipe involves boiling
water, unless it's tea there's a good chance that some broth-in-a-jar could
make it taste better.
Did you know you can boil oats like noodles? Yeah that's... that's basically
how you make oatmeal. Use less water than with noodles, though.
EDIT: Also, add some bits of nutrition like dried fruit, nuts that have been
soaking in clean water overnight, nutritional yeast, dehydrated soup mix
(delicious), or frozen vegetables.

don't know how to make decent rice and beans?
get the heartiest vegetable soup you can find from the store and cook some
jasmine rice and lentils in a pot. You should be able to do both in the same
pot. cook them like noodles by boiling some water and adding the rice and
beans. add some salt to the water. make it salty like the sea.
then drain the rice and beans once you taste test them to be done. be patient.
add the hearty, savory soup to the mix alongside a big hunk of butter.
boom, protein, calories, nutrients. all in one meal. the more vegetables in
the soup, the better, and if you're feeling fancy you can sautee some of your
own instead of soup by dicing them into inch large chunks and throwing them in
a pan on medium heat with some butter and whatever seasonings you want for a
while, stirring only when they start to stick. Just enough to brown them, not
burn them.
butter and salt and garlic and boullion are your friends. don't do too much,
if you notice them a lot then it's too much.

I like Lindt Lindor truffles from Costco because they seem fancy, but they're
really not.
They're just a chocolate shell with a hole in it that is filled with a softer
chocolate and then capped. Easy peasy. Can be made in a factory. But still
feel fancy somehow - perhaps because of the marketing? Or maybe the decadence.
anyway they're cheap because they're made in a factory, as all things should be
it's like Factorio - if you don't have a production line set up for a certain
type of good, then you are not manufacturing that type of good, and it is not
available.

I love cooking. My favorite food is "melange" also called "gruel" by the less
culinary people in my life. It consists primarily of a rice or noodle base,
plus a bunch of other ingredients (usually sauteed) that are quite nutritious.
Then, you season in a way such that it tastes delicious and savory and BOOM
you have the perfect food.
Well, not as good as steamed eggs, but still pretty good.

Vegetables are delicious! There's lots of nutrients. However vegetables, while
can be eaten raw, are much more useful for your body molecularly if you cook
them first. I think it breaks down the cellular walls so that your body can
digest the juicy tasty nutrients locked within.
Vegetables also don't have calories, that you get from things with vitality.
You are what you eat, and sometimes if you need it you might want to try meat.
Me? I'm a vegetarian, that's why I'm so skinny! Carnivores have it so easy, I
have to eat about 2x as much rice-and-beans by weight.
At least I'm not vegan - I can supplement with fats like butter and cooking
oil, which are useful when combined with nutrients, as they allow your body to
store them for later. Just make sure you eat enough calories which are energy
for your body, otherwise it won't have the chemical energy to store said
nutrients in your latent fat cells. Like, building up a pantry, or a squirrel
saving nuts for winter.

rice in the rice maker with butter, worcestersire sauce (not too much!) and
salt
when it's done, flake hard boiled eggs (2 eggs per cup of rice) on top and

in the past, people could eat canned food not necessarily because of the way
that it was canned, but simply the fact that it was sealed and comprised of a
liquid form that was inhospitable to bacterial life. Like vinegar with
pickles! But only for the things that were meant to last for a while - if it
was just for next month, then you don't need BPA liners or microplastic
dissolvers or any of that junk. Just a fully recyclable can that vacuum seals
itself shut using the power of machinery and heat.

does anyone know of a recipe that uses only flour, butter, yeast, eggs, and
salt? It doesn't need to use every ingredient, but those are easy to acquire.
ideally with the ability to include nuts or dried fruit or something else
nutritious.
the requirements include the ability to cook it using only a rice-cooker (or
crock pot, or other kind of slow-cooking ceramic dish which heats from all
directions at once)
in addition, it must NOT need kneading. It must be able to be cooked passively
without attention. The fewer steps, the better.

cheese is just a body-part that a cow has willingly shed. For nutrition.
Is it vegetarian if it's the cells produced by a body? Is it vegan if it is
capable of growing back?
Do snakes shed their selves when they leave behind a shell? Or is it like
hair, just... keratin, a compound found all over nature.
Is cutting a branch vegan? Is eating a cherry that has fallen to the center of
the road? Both those are made of fibrous materials, the nutritious bounteous

creature utterly vast.

When you run out of a seasoning, put the empty bottle in a special place that
you can see before going to the store.
When I carried a purse, I'd put it in there. Could also go in the pocket of a
sweatshirt or jacket that you wear when doing errands. Maybe even just on the
ledge next to your shoes. Something that reminds you to get this particular
seasoning, and no others. It's easy to get others...

It's healthier to eat rice, beans, and vegetables, with some fats added in via
butter or oil.
The goal is to build up fat stores that are high-value. When your body has
excess calories, it takes whatever nutrients are CURRENTLY in your system and
stores them in fat cells, like stocking a pantry. If all you eat is cheetos,
your pantry is gonna be useless. It'll just slow you down. But if you have
highly nutritious foods, you will perform better as your body consumes the fat
when it needs to feed, but you haven't eaten much lately.

those billionaires are using their money as a weapon to "vote" toward what
companies they think capitalism would most grow from. Unfortunately for us,
they often aren't very efficient because they're only looking at what sells.
human interest is not the only factor to optimize for, and yet that's the only
one they're incentivized to.
kinda makes me think that the only reason to replace them would be to
institute something that could not be incentivized because it was more
objective or decentralized.
(the only reason they'd accept)

Economies are capitalist things.
I personally think if you have stuff right here, and it needs to get over
there so that so-and-so can use it to make this-or-that which will then be
taken to other places, then the answer is clear. The stuff has to move from
over here, to over there. The rest is logistics, not economics.

that's totally fine, a fish does not do well in a tree, and so too does a
leftist not do well in an environment without the potential for stable bonds.
Essentially all you'd be able to do is "hey leftism right?" "oh yes I also
leftism" "neat" which isn't very productive.
I also live in an environment like that. I do my best to identify people who
stay, because in my experience there are often people who stay. I do this by
walking around the neighborhood when I can, making up excuses to walk to the
dumpster or mailbox at random hours, riding my bike around the area, using the
communal spaces like gyms, swimming pools, and picnic tables, and sitting in
my hammock on my porch lazily noting people who walk past.
People who stay will tend to remain in your mind the more times you see them.
They are better people to talk to than the renters who disappear after 3
months or whatever.
I don't always do all that stuff at once. I take breaks. I do one at a time.

Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
collective mind co-re-assigns.

cops thought "enforcing the law" was their job when really it was "keeping the

and like, yeah, sure, laws define how they optimize for
but sometimes the laws are just out of reach.
(though such an impartialized system is also pretty flawed in it's own unique
ways, like for example the enforcers of the law would be able to apply their
law selectively, which... would not be great.)
downside is... how do you dissent to those who cannot hear you? you have to
break things
which is why I believe that breaking things unnecessarily is unethical.
sometimes you have to do a MORE unethical act in the pursuit of your goals,
however nefarious or not they may be, but as long as they are done in pursuit
of a greater grander truth, then... the ends justify the means? right?"

you'll need first near the top of the bag, and the things you'll need at your
destination at the bottom.
if you don't know where you're going, well then just try and pack more of the

for example sandwiches go at the top, because you're going to be eating them
en route.
however clean underwear should probably be near the bottom.

if you live in a place where it rains a lot you pretty much HAVE TO pick up
any secret notes you find. Otherwise they'll get waterlogged overnight.
Sometimes I like to put them somewhere shaded from the sky, sometimes I like
to show them to a friend (but the friend never takes them, booooo) and
sometimes I just keep them.
"ah but aren't you worried about messing up drug deals and stuff" no, because
most of the time "secret notes" are like "eggs milk bread chips salsa cheese"
and it's like "hmmmm what could it mean"
there's like, 2% of the time when they say something cool like "I know what
you did" or "all your base are belong to us" or whatever and those are fun to
hunt for. I usually try and put those somewhere shelted so they don't have to
leave their habitat - sometimes it's hard to drop them as the author so they
just sorta go wherever, but as a random passer-by I have the luxury of saying
"HMMMM now where could THIS ONE go?" and that's nice because I can put them
under an umbrella or whatevers rite

This will never end on a note, because i always have more to say. Like this:
"if you've only done something once, plan to mess it up. Practice makes
perfect, and only perfect practice leads to perfection. But nobody's perfect,
so just practice with good form and take it seriously while having fun and be
relaxed. Make it normal. Make it casual, but don't forget to be professional!
If you have lives in the balance, know what you're doing."
And like, would that have been a better end to the story if i had left it
unsaid? Maybe, who can say! But I'm not one for silence. I don't mind ruining
the finale of my documents a bit if it means i can say things like:
"diapers aren't something you can get addicted to in this game, they're part
of the fun sometimes but sex is between two bodies."
Or like:
"ramen noodles love vegetables! This is why they put veggies in the bowl when
getting ramen at a restaurant. When you buy from a shop they put dehydrated
veggies in too which is nice of them. I love those little bits of soup!"
Or like:
"i don't especially care what they did or are doing in Cuba or china or Russia
or any other Communist place. It's useful to know what things work and what
doesn't, but that insight comes from experimentation and not study. The
learnings of methods applied to a population are inherently related to that
population. If you switch peoples, you might find that different methods work
better for organizing people."
I mean it's useful to know which levers you can pull and what they tend to do,
but... Where was I? Oh sorry, got swept up in the narrative. As i was saying,
it's important to balance thought with action. Leave too much to chance and
your words are useless. Spend all your time volunteering and nothing changes.
"hmmm i see, makes sense, imma go play video games now."
Wait no just...! Ah nuts.

live in the homes of those you agree with to make a difference.
pay rent, so that their goals may be furthered through your wage. the more you
pay, the further they can go toward your shared goals.
if what you do doesn't pay well, then as long as your goals are similar and
you're applying yourself then they might not mind you living there.
take care of your space, because every day that you do your roommates dishes
is another day they can be working toward your shared goals.
talk to them, learn how they're doing what they do, and decide for yourself
who you'd like to most contribute to.
the more friend groups you have, the more people you can connect to people who
need to know things. people who can fix things. people who got your back.

... Maps, my dear, those are important fuel.
But also food is important. Why haven't you gotten groceries for weeks?
It's also important to clean yourself. Doesn't your apartment still have fleas?
Your cat demands your attention. Give it to her.
Wear masks when in public, to ward off disease. When you are speaking remove
it, so others can see your totality.
There are some who belong here who aren't so kind. Remember that your neighbor
is republican, their neighbor is democrat, their neighbor is republican, their
neighbor is democrat. It's going to get messy, but here in our cities there
are plenty of us. We can defeat them, so long as we are armed.
Practice reloading. Practice aiming. These things can be done in secrecy. The
noise and the recoil are enough to set your nerves ablaze, but ride that high
and trust in your adrenaline. Have your foes surrounded on at least three
sides before you engage. These are words for a different day, but keep them in
mind. Internalize them.
