Cake day: September 22nd, 2023

  • The seitan was probably more meatloaf than turkey but it was alright, not great if I'm honest. The cheesecake was pretty legit though. I wanna ask the owner what the recipe is lol.

    Someone on the Vegan Home Cooks discord server sent me a video or recipe for the wash method for seitan but it def seems like a lot of work. I haven't done the math but if vital wheat gluten is still cheaper than then like hamburger, I might go that route. I'm kind of weird about it but I price check my vegan protein sources against the omni counterparts and if it's cheaper, it's justifiable.





  • My partner started smoking recently and I loved telling her all about what it was like back in the day, when weed was illegal in every state, so you had to trust your brother's friend or the weird guy at work wasn't a nark. Then you'd proceed to buy the shittiest weed on the planet that took a whole bowl before you felt anything. Then came the era that I was hanging out with bikers a bit and I was getting my weed through my bestie whose step-dad had ties to The Hell's Angels. My bestie would always go on about "this is two toke shit right here" and it was. It was really good.

    But my partner, you see, got the industrial grade treatment out the gate. Like she jumped straight to OG Kush lol. Completely missed out on that high school weed era. Also this past week was my first time trying Banana Kush and oh my god.


  • Probably not super disabled related(unless you count autistic rigid rules/schedule) but today is my first day flying solo for my job. I did my on the road training last Wednesday and I guess they wanted me to wait until I forgot how to do anything to throw me into the grinder. I've been working over how this morning will go in my head the entire time since it's the most chaotic part of the day.

    • get to work,
    • clock in
    • wait around until we get shuffled off to the vans
    • do "standup"
    • log in to phone we use
    • log in to both apps
    • start pre-shift vehicle inspection
    • get in queue to load van
    • pull van into loading bay(lights on, hazards on, windows down, radio down, 5mph
    • get go ahead to get out of van and go grab my carts, bring to van and scan in
    • get van loaded in a organizational method that almost makes sense
    • be done in 12 minutes
    • wait for bullhorn dude to say my lane can leave, then leave
    • also wait until first stop to reorganize packages as I need them

    After that, I get to establish a routine which is nice. There are gonna be a few bumps along the way though. I am dreading dealing with large dogs and language barriers. But once I get this all going, I get to listen to music and just vibe while delivering Amerikkkans there 2 day delivery treats.

    Anywho, I hope everyone who had a shitty Genocide Celebration Day in the SStates is able to recover today. That's probably my only real complaint is that I'm still buzzy from overstimulation due to yesterday and now I get tossed into the grinder. I don't get my required 36 hours of decompression.















  • I am basically on my phone or kindle at every holiday. If it wasn't for my kiddos, I'd just stay home. I don't celebrate or care about holidays. They are just excuses for corpos to put their treat machine into overdrive so they can have shitty sales. And for the most part, holidays just feel fake. Everyone pretends to be nice with each other because they are "family" whatever the fuck that is supposed to mean. But also lib family members just have the shittiest takes imaginable.

    I'm trying to psychologically prepare for whatever this aunt ends up saying to pretend I didn't hear it. But I suck at masking.
