It's got a name? It's not just some space bug?

Peking Duck with plum sauce and gua bao is a supremely decadent meal that I love as a treat for just this kind of occasion. Anything with duck and fruit, really. Duck l'Orange, Gaeng Phed Ped Yang (Curried Roast Duck with Pineapples and Tomatoes), Roast Duck with Cherries, I could go on.

I think Peking Duck usually takes the cake as far as special meals go, though, and it's fun to make with it's unique technique for separating the skin from the bird and roasting upright for maximum crispy goodness. Gaeng Phed Ped Yang is probably second on the list for me, but the fluffy, soft, wonderful gua bao (which are deceptively easy to make) takes it over the top for me.

Also, you can reserve the bones and fat from any of the recipes for a killer stock and the fat is great to use in any application you'd use schmaltz.

Some people really like in-person socialization. There's something lost in the webcam only meeting. I'm glad you adapted well to the circumstances of the pandemic, but not everyone faired so well. I can tell ya I went a lil bonkers not being able to see people in person.

Now do American companies and institutions

Nice! The first one was well done and a great resource for running a game, but some streamlining could be useful.

Wild question I never thought I'd be asking, anyone know a stripped down SMS app I can use instead of the default?

I don't want to see AI features and I don't wanna participate in helping anyone build a LLM

Goddamn I want a $7k new car that's fucking awesome

We badly need a ten thousand dollar car in the US. The price of a new automobile has gotten batshit insane and I look enviously overseas to places that can get cheap, modern Chinese EVs.

American automakers are doing the country a disservice by not following suit.

Or, dammit, let me buy a fucking Chinese car.
