thank you for answering my questions!!

if I find shittakes again I will try the water and chunkier pieces for sure!

i was trying to find your recipe to verify the steps i have memorized and I figured it out. tumblr has actually blocked the posts where you explain how to make shittakes (pictured) and their family very deliciously. "redirecting" goes to random other posts, if I had to guess it's picking a post with a similar timestamp. tumblr doesn't understand that I'm not getting high i just want to enjoy a delicious meal.

ANYWAY. thanks again. the only thing I'm not sure about is the temps for each step (no oil, then w a little oil) and whether the shittakes go in the pan cold. they turned out really good this time tho I think there's enough flexibility in the recipe that it doesn't matter a ton, can you confirm? like, I probably should've used a little less heat/time on these since they started out feeling drier than my usual buttons--it's my first time with shittake, I never find them in the grocery store.

if you ever wrote a recipe book or started a blog or podcast about cooking I would be your biggest fan. just so you know. hope you're doing well.

once again i tried to find this post but i cannot even tho i swear i included other tags so i could find it again but of course either i can’t remember the tags or tumblr is just being bad

for shiitakes specifically i would recommend quite counter intuitively to add them to a heated sauté pan and then add barely enough water to cover the bottom of the pan, and then cook it until it goes away

shiitakes specifically can just evaporate into nothing after you remove the water. this way, you get the benefit of breaking down the cell walls without them losing everything they have. especially the thinner shiitakes.

the next time you use them try cutting them into quarters or into 6ths (cut in half on the longest side, and then turn it 90 degrees and cut each half into 3rds) depending on the size of the caps to get chunkier pieces. i think the texture is nice this way and it’s more forgiving than thin slices which many recipes will have you do.

generally speaking you will have faster results with higher heats at all steps (preheating the pan some before any mushrooms go in, and moderate heat afterwards) but you don’t gotta use high heat, a solid medium ish will get you there

thank you for asking questions!!

"I'd be immune to Audrey II offering to have me date Heady Lamarr or meet Jack Parr or whatever 🤪" No shit, Sherlock, they wouldn't mention them to you. They mentioned those things because they were relevant during Seymour's time. You think the plant wouldn't update their tactics and references if they were to change the setting to a modern one? You think it wouldn't try to tempt you by making you popular on your favorite internet platform? You could argue that it still wouldn't work on you, but you can't say they wouldn't try that.

Also, those things didn't work on Seymour either. You know what did work? Offering to help him get with the woman he'd been crushing on for years. By the time the plant started talking they had spent enough time with Seymour to know what he likes and what to say to persuade him into doing what they want. Audrey II works like a siren: tempting their victim with what they desire. They wouldn't try to win you over with meeting celebrities from the fifties, they'd offer something that's deeply relevant to you.

"Some Asians say its good, some Asians say its bad"

Where are the ones that say its GOOD? All I've seen are neutral and "interesting" (both of which are "I have a friend" and "someone on reddit once posted", not once have I had an actual AAPI person try to discuss this with other AAPI *and* have this stance), I have not once seen an AAPI say "Oh wow I'm glad "tulpa"mancers are using the term "tulpa"! It helps me and AAPI so much!"

If you have a group of people saying "this is actively hurting me!" and a group of people who say "this is not hurting me" and you choose to continue doing it because its "not hurting some people" then infer what that means about you yourself.

Tell me, what GOOD does white people appropriating and bastardizing the TERM "tulpa" do for AAPI? "Cultural Exchange" OK what did we get in return? Hm? What is the greater good that outweighs the damage done to justify using the term "tulpa"?

It is May 6th, 2023 and I feel duped. The Earthlings began to use the term “rizz” and I, in fear of not fitting in, made sure to know what this word meant.

I began to use the Earthling-Creation by the name of Google, very rudimentary in comparison to our system the P̷̪̝̖͔̭̻̻̭͉͊͂́̀̏̆̉̽̾̋̅̒̽̓̽̅̂́͆̈́̅̈́̂̾̓́̌̿͐͂̇̄̚̚͜͝ơ̸̢̡̧̟̭̟̼͖̝̫̤̙̮͉̼̙̜̠͙̱̼͚͖̤͎̦͛̃́̍͑͗̀̔̓̂́͑̈́̃̎̆̀͂̓̇̌̌͋̊̕͘͜͝͠͠c̷̛̛͉̞͎̹̫̳͖͍̤̭̫͓̰͇̼̳͕̭̜̬̀̊̐̂̏̽̓̇̽̂́̓͗͐̐̚͠k̷̡͖͓̘̜̺̣͓̼̟̼̙͖̝̥̳̲͍̇̓́͋̅̋̀͒͗̀́̉̿̑͆͌̊̐̎̌́̍́͋̀͑̈́̕͘͜͠͝ͅͅͅé̵̛͉͙̺͕͔͕͖̀͋̓̒͂̐̂̈́̀̐̉̓̑̿̒͝t̸̢̧̧̨̙̠̥͕̹̼͙͔̲͍̼̝͚̘̺͚̳͙̥͚̺̄́̀ͅ ̷̧͍̳̟͚̦̝̹͈̄̏͌́̄͌̓̈͆̎ͅP̸̧̛͍̭̯̺̱̗̺̪̗͕̠͖̭̗͉̞̝̬͈͚̯̯̱̣͍͎̞̲̳̥̬̈́̍͐̊̑̇͒̍̋̀́̒̈́̐͗̍̇̏̏̀̈́̇́͑̈́̌̄̎̿̕̚̕͘͜͝͝i̵̧̛̛̫̝̞̳̝̳̬͉̭̙̟̺̦̻̝̰̼̲͑̂͌̍̊̒̀͂͌͐̄̊͆̒̎̎̓̓̓̅͑̽͋̅̇̔̕͘͜͜͠͝x̷̛̛͈̂͑̍͊̿̎̄͝͝į̴̢̡̤̼̯͕̩̗̩̙̘̩̭̯̺̖̞͈̥̜͕͍͖͖̫̥͎͗̐̽̅̄͒͆͜͝ͅͅͅȇ̷̛̗̯̠̳͔̖̜̙̤͕̱̝̊̒̾̿͂̅͌͛̈́̿̂̉͒͂̃̾̕͠, and happened upon its definition of highlighting the sapient quality of “charisma” - “rizz”.

I continue to scroll, I need examples, dammit! until I’m shown videos and I no longer need examples.

The Wheel croaked and came to a halt right in front of their eyes and no one seems to bat a lash.

And now, it begins to turn back.

However, they do have something here that perhaps might taste even better than we have there, a confection of the most unholiest sweetness that I desire in my unending quests from the Universal truth:

I am an island. 

My friends come to visit every now and then, the birds that decide to land as they fly over my trees and shores. I listen as they talk about their lives and suddenly everything feels so distant. 

I am watching from the corner of the room, floating above my body and watching the time pass. I hear the laughter but it’s muffled. 

I am underwater now, and I watch as my friends fly away. They never stay.

Other found family tropes are cool and all, but true found family comes when they add you to their health insurance.

Now that is an unrivaled commitment.

Like, "Yeah, I'll pay a bit every month of my entire life/have a bit of my pay deducted to go into a health insurance premium for the rest of the time I'm employed so that in the event you get injured or sick I'll be able to pay for help for you to get better."

*Disclaimer, I'm not in charge of insurance in my household. I've got a few more years before I have to finagle that, but I thought the idea was cute. This might be inaccurate to exactly how health insurance works (I'm basing it off of minimal research and things my parents have mentioned in the past). I just thought that including someone as a dependent in your health insurance is a major commitment, and aside from adoption, it's possibly one of the most major things you can do to show exactly how prepared you are to include this person in your entire future.

It's kind of just a way of saying, "I'm sticking with you, and I'm planning on sticking with you for a long, long time to come."
