So I was gonna finally break the spine on the Max Miller "Tasting History" cookbook, but after perusing it, I'm thinking it's going to be more a "fun" cookbook, versus a "daily" cookbook.

I have a few of those, where I make something fun for the weekend, but it turns out having a week's worth of ancient food requiring expensive specialized ingredients that I may not like is a bad thing.

But darn it, I'm gonna make some globi and even though the recipe isn't in the book, Texas Chili from his website (how is that not in the book?!). Being from San Antonio myself, I have to earn my reputation as a chili queen.

Is this any different from living down the street from North Bend?

From an unexpectedly busy day, to a life getting more complicated way sooner than I expected. In a good way.

Karma delivers, but shipping takes four to six weeks for delivery....

Woke up to an unexpectedly busy day. In a good way. But a busy one.

Nintendo uncensored the fact that Vivian is canonically trans in the Paper Mario The Thousand Year Door remaster. This was originally censored out of the western release of the original GameCube version but is back now on Switch :blobhaj_flag_transgender:

(thanks @lycanmatriarch )

I heard the good news about the upcoming Thousand Year Door remake, and decided to stop drawing my regularly scheduled trans girls to draw some different trans girls for a while. Congrats on finally getting to be yourself, Vivian! ^_^

Now back to drawing MY trans girls. XD

LB: My #1 problem with Linux were people doing that to me. "Maybe Linux isn't for you." It'll never be if you don't give me a chance to learn.

I'm just glad I had a Linux guru who helped team me with a good distro, and offered help and advice.

I'm now fifteen years into daily driving Linux, and offer help whenever needed.

OK #Linux community, listen up.

MS have done it again and people are looking for a way out.

DON'T TREAT NEWBIES LIKE SHIT.

DON'T ATTACK PEOPLE FOR ASKING QUESTIONS.

DON'T ATTACK PEOPLE FOR HAVING PROBLEMS.

DON'T TELL PEOPLE TO "GOOGLE IT" WHEN THEY COULDN'T POSSIBLY KNOW WHAT TO SEARCH FOR, OR HOW TO INTERPRET THE RESULTS THEY'D FIND.

DON'T BE A DICK.

The fact that Microsoft's new Recall thing won't capture DRM content means the engineers do understand the risk of logging everything.
They just chose to preference the interests of corporates and money over people, deliberately.

Tek Jr just texted me those words every parent wants to hear:

"Dad, can you help me install Linux?"

I think I'm crying.

Here is the church..
Here is the steeple..
Open the doors..
EAT ALL THE PEOPLE

Making myself available as a resource for anyone leaving Windows for Linux due to Recall (as if the ads and other built-in spyware weren't enough...).

#Recall #Windows #Linux #Microsoft #FreeSoftware #Freedom #Privacy #Security #LinuxOfficeHour

Adding my name to the hat.

I use #Linux Mint, a version based on the widely-used and -supported Ubuntu. It's pretty easy to use out of the box; I like it a lot.

If you try using it and have an issue, I'm willing to see if we can find a solution. No guarantees on solving every problem, but I won't make you feel silly for asking.

LB: Nintendo has been trying to put trans characters in as far back as Catherine/Birdo for Super Mario 2.

Legend of Zelda had a few planned that were very...badly portrayed...for Skyward Sword. They didn't follow through, though.

Here's the original Japanese for this Vivian line.

それに じつは アタイ・・・
体は オトコのコだけど
ココロは カワイイ オンナのコなの

"The thing is... I...
I have a boy's body, but my heart is a cute girl's!"

(using feminine first person pronouns)
