I'm a trombonist- performer and educator- based in the Midwestern USA. Besides that, I cook a lot, hang out with my lovely wife, enjoy movies and video games, reading and walking, building Legos, cars, football, etc.

Plus every commercial (that isn't either an overtly racist or dogwhistle racist attack ad against Al-Sayed) is for either polymarket or kalshi

Oh those can be great when they're made well- it's tricky to get the batter/breading to stick to the peppers, since basically nothing wants to stick to the outside of a pepper. Top-tier flavor combination though

Yeah, it was definitely a system seller. I had a couple friends who were really into it when the game first came out, so I wound up getting into it I think the next year. It honestly took me a couple tries to get into it, since it was also my first RPG but I've been hooked ever since

Yeah, thats the way to go- I did that, plus some apple cider vinegar and hot sauce (valentina)- not enough to make it spicy, just enough for you to go 'oooh what's that in there?'

Ooooo yum! What was your glaze? I made meatloaf a couple weeks back when it first started getting chilly, and it was one of those things where I was like, damn why don't I make this more?

Goddammit, Slotkin. Not surprised to see her there, but that doesn't mean I can't also be dissapointed.

Well, more folks have played for the Mariners in the playoffs than have played trombone in the Seattle Symphony, so there's that at least

This is reminding me that I haven't made pesto in a while too, probably about time
010
Stefan 🇺🇦 @bassclefstef.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
Oh those both sound great. I think i tried it once because I was making pesto, and we had pine nuts around but I think they had turned and gone rancid. My wife is Turkish though, so we pretty much always have pistachios around, so I figured I'd give that a shot.

If you've still got basil around and want to make more pesto, pistachios make a neat swap for pine nuts

That's a good move. I could always get the Thai iced tea at that place in particular, but it's a dollar extra

There's a small (like, 5 locations) fast-casual Thai noodle chain in our area that I really like, except they just switched from Coke to Pepsi and I was devastated

Seriously. I've got to go in next Thursday for a physical to get ready for a procedure that I'm doing next month, and they're telling me to plan on the appointment (next week) being TWO HOURS long. I'm dreading it already

It's crazy to me that in the Year of Our Lord Two Thousand Six and Twenty, that the way that we have for determining the spot of a ball is still someone trying to watch the play and saying 'Yeah, I think it was right around there maybe!'

Way back when I was a kid, I went out for Dim Sum with my dad, my sister, and my stepmom. At one point, dad and overheard two people chatting at the next table over, and one of them said 'yeah, ever since you pointed that out, hamsters have always looked so tasty to me!'

Toss it with roasted brussels sprouts, especially with some toasted pecans and sliced shallots
