This one seems pretty easy to flip.  Just get 10-20 thousand people to put on masks and stand in a public spot.  Could even offer music and snacks.  Cheap and effective at showing the law means nothing and will be quickly reversed.  It's not often that peaceful protest is so easy to achieve.

Or, or,  or,  H5N1 2024,  2 million more people die.  Let's see how this goes.

I thought I had bought a bitter melon at an Asian food store, but when I cut it to prepare it I found that it was just a very knobbly cucumber ...

Hello :)

I found a set of GMK Metropolis R2 (Base, Sign, Blocks & Deskmat Standard). They are Completely new and in Original packaging.
Could someone tell me what they would be worth if I would sell them?

Thanks for the help.

Less than retail, as they're in stock at NovelKeys.

No way, Ron Desantis has the power to stop climate change in its track.

Houston, Texas devastation. 1 million people without power. Concrete highrise = deathtraps ?

Climate change is fake news. Even florida legally denies its existence.



Honestly though, why do we even put glass on highrise windows. Why not use plywood with some holes. What's there to see. It's a city, we're in a cage.

Those windows will cost $millions to fix.

Cool, so tp, help me with this one - this is sushi rice - cooked in those proportions, rinse like 15 times till water is not misty anymore, then keep it for 20 minutes in cold water, then bring to boil under lid, low simmering for 15 minutes, then gas off, keep under lid for next 15 minutes, then take out. Basically those steps are taken from the rice box instructions.
Rice comes always so freaking sticky that it very hard to spread over nori. It pisses me off, tried different cooking timings, diff amount of water etc
I know obviously sushi rice is supposed to be sticky, but when I wtch people on YT doing sushi, it is not that bad. I even tried different rice brands.
I use wet hands to spread, but they would need to be seriously wet to avoid rice to stick, which is bad as I then transfer water to nori, that gets soggy and everything goes to bin...

Sometimes I think I should just get a rice cooker...

When washing rice, you want to use cold/room temp water, and only gently swirl them, do not grind them in your hands, which will lead to more grains cracking. Soak for at least 1 hour, overnight if you can wait till next day. Do not use warm water.

Are you using the cold vinegar+sugar spread to toss the rice after you get it out of the pot? That should make it easier to work with.

Getting the right rice is important. For Sushi.  Tp4 recommends 50% of a (cal rose) variety, and 50% (sweet rice).

Do not buy on amazon at these ridiculous prices, Look for asian grocery stores, they got rice like this for much cheaper. For example, 50% of something like this, Sekka and 50% this, Sanpatong

Rice cooker will make this a bit easier, as long as you get a neuro fuzzy logic model.

You do not need japan radiation $3-500 rice cooker. Tp4 can't in good conscience recommend them due to radiological concerns, but there is no denying they are very good rice cookers.

Zojirushi has models that are made in China, and they're cheaper.
