Former Marine Corps crayon-eater turned healthcare worker. Overly fond of whimsy, mostly feral, nocturnal, soft squishy underbelly, prone to rolling into a ball.

I'm a nobody, but, if I could have any wish come true for 2026, it would be for the horror of what that woman experienced at the hands of the Cornell 7-Rapists result in a more powerful and enduring #MeToo movement. So many men have gotten away, with inflicting pain for far, far too long.

One of my legit favorite things about German is the fact they have words so long I'd need to stop and take a breath halfway though them. Also that breakfast is a banger. ##foodporn

Election Day should be a national holiday. Everything but essential services should be closed. Tthose places that need to stay open should be required to ensure they arrange staffing so everyone has time to go vote.

Commissioner Frank Strada botching his 5th execution in two different states (at least) doesn't strike me as incompetence. It strikes me as sadism masquerading as incompetence.

Your quality of life is important enough to not spend one more second than necessary tolerating a person or a situation that makes you feel like sh*t. No matter what that voice from your past is whispering in your ear— or screaming in your face— as you read this.

Spicy Honey Mustard! Not the greatest photo in the world, I admit. More involved to make than the basic Black Mustard, but only a little. Well within anyone's capabilities. Especially good with pretzels and chicken tenders. Rcipe in alt text
Ingredients 
6 Tbsp black mustard seed
½ cup cold water
3 Tbsp white vinegar
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp black pepper, freshly ground
4 Tbsp raw honey
~1/2 cup mustard powder (brown), added later to thicken as desired

Method:
Grind seeds well, in pulses, so the seeds don't heat up. That can hurt the flavor.

Add the cold water, stir well, and let it rest 10 minutes. You're essentially blooming the mustard grinds, letting more complex flavors arise.

Add white vinegar, garlic powder, black pepper, honey, blend well.

Rest 8-12 hours

Blend in mustard powder 1 Tbsp at a time to preferred consistency.

Transfer to jar

Refrigerate to rest 24-48 hours

A simple Black Mustard recipe that comes together in less than 5 minutes and contains no salt, preservatives, sweeteners, or unpronouncable mystery ingredients. Full recipe in alt text! #cooking
Salt-free, preservative-free, sugar-free.

 A simple coarse ground black mustard with a solid punch.

I use a Magic Bullet as a grinder but you can use whatever you'd like.

Ingredients 
6 Tbsp black mustard seed
3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
4 Tbsp cold water
½ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp black pepper

Directions:
Dry grind seeds 30-45 seconds. Don't shake too much when grinding, having uneven distribution for the sizes of the seed pieces is part of the goal.

Add vinegar, water, and spices directly, blend 15-20 seconds to combine.

Transfer to jar

Refrigerate to rest 24-48 hours*

*Resting is vital. Taste it immediately after you make it, you won't like it. It takes time for the chemical reactions to play their roles.

Black Soybean Salad! Recipe in alt text #cooking

Black Soybean Salad
1 can Eden Black soybeans (no salt added)
½ cup finely chopped celery
¼ cup finely chopped red onion
1 garlic glove, finely minced
*Everything mixed well, makes 2 cups
 
Dressing
4 Tbsp Red Wine Vinegar
2 Tbsp low-sodium miso paste
2 Tbsp regular low-sodium tamari
2 Tbsp sesame oil
½ tsp garlic powder or 2 fresh garlic
A squeeze of lime juice
 *wisk or blend together 


2 Tbsp of dressing per cup of salad is what I like to use. Mix well and chill before eating. 

I think it's better then next day because the soybeans really soak in the flavor. If you do that you may want to add an additional Tbsp of dressing prior to eating. Trust your tastebuds.

I recommend no salt added soybeans, low(er) sodium miso paste, and low sodium tamari because all together they still have a good amount of sodium.
