found this weird portent on the ground the other day. it is somehow simultaneously the joker and the ace of spades (?)

a beat up playing card advertising a custom card company. it says joker at the corner but also has a single big spade pip at top and inverted at bottom

a car took out a few of the fenceposts around the empty lot where a nearby burrito truck lives, so now the fence is being held up with barrels of toxic waste instead 👍

this company is leading the way in the tex-mex equivalent of body horror

two old el paso food products side by side at the grocery store. the one on the left is obscenely wide taco shells with flat bottoms so they stand freely on their own. the one on the right is a kind of a flour tortilla sock, intending the user to make a kind of fucked-up burrito by filling the sock with whatever is at hand

if you look from just the right angle you can see a hint of this ballard restaurant's ~secret past~

a blue awning with text in white: AUTHENTIC INDIAN RESTAURANT. if you look around the middle word, it is clear that it used to say SCANDINAVIAN and they painted over the letters just-so to make the change

when surge came out in 1997 it marked the advent of the wide mouth can, and every teenage nerd was like "holy shit i am gonna neck these fuckers so fast at the lan party". anyway i found literally the widest mouth can possible at the asian grocery the other day. just look at it

a can of mango cube soda with a pull tab that covers the width of its entire cap

the same can, open. it is almost like a cup. one with razor sharp edges

behold, internet! i made nixtamal orgeat. rinsed the mote pelado thoroughly and soaked it overnight. blent it finely with some of the soaking water, then pressed the milk from that using a nut milk bag. added an equal volume of sugar and a dash of everclear for stability. it tastes awesome, too

cooked the apple cider levain bread from evolutions in bread over the weekend, which is basically the final boss battle of that book. it was indeed a pain in the ass! but oh my god, delicious

top down view of a gold and brown boule of bread

side view of a gold and brown boule of bread. you can see one place a cube of apple was sticking out and got blackened in the oven

bread from the last two pictures sliced, with a fine crumb that gets kind of mushy towards the bottom, suggesting that it was mildly overproofed. which it was.

a friend got me one of those tiny yellow-top bins for xmas. i've decided that the best thing to put in there is desk antacids

it looks like a black bin with a yellow top like you see in the storage areas of any hobbyist, only it is five inches in diagonal and filled with white tums

did u know, the address for dade murphy's childhood home from hackers is a real seattle address and you can walk there, just like i did an hour ago? it looks nothing like in the opening montage tho, but instead like the third attachment to this post
