dandelion jelly time!
once again i am begging you guys: make dandelion jelly this year. it's incredibly delicious.
Ingredients
- 2 cups dandelion petals, lightly packed
- 4 cups water
- 4 cups sugar (2-3 if using low-sugar sure-set pectin)
- 2 Tbs. lemon juice
- 1 box powdered pectin
Instructions
- Cut the green part of the flower off and place the petals into a quart canning jar. (i have the best success cutting them in half with my thumbnail then slicing just above the seed line)
- Pour 4 cups of boiling water over the flower petals. Allow them to cool and then place into the fridge for 24 hours.
- Strain the flowers well and squeeze out as much dandelion tea as possible. Using a clean dishcloth is better than a metal strainer.
- Place into a large pot 3 1/2 to 4 cups of dandelion tea, lemon juice, and pectin. Bring it to a boil.
- Add sugar and return to a boil while stirring. Boil the jelly for 1 to 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and pour into canning jars. Let the jars cool to room temp then pop them in the fridge to set overnight.
- Dandelion jelly lasts 3+ months in the fridge and 6+ months in the freezer though I've unfrozen perfectly fine jelly 9 months later. This isn't a good recipe for shelf-stable, room-temperature preserves, though. Keep the jars cool as much as you can.

I bought this expensive ass yogurt as a gift to myself so that I could make little candles in the tiny terracotta pot it comes in and it turns out it is the best, creamiest, most buttery heavenly delicious yogurt I have ever tasted and I’m now addicted
sometimes things that are expensive are worse but sometimes things that are expensive are astronomically better and that’s where the real problem lies
YOU CAN TORRENT GOOD YOGHURT. If the good yoghurt has a live culture you can use it to make a whole pot of new yoghurt with the exact same bacteria culture. You'll have to add flavoring yourself but it should be similar.
HOW?? YOU CAN CLONE YOGURT?
(for anyone curious)
To clone a yogurt you need:
- Some of the yogurt you want to clone
- A sterile jar with a lid
- Whole milk
Process:
- Put milk in jar
- Put a couple spoonfuls of yogurt in jar and stir
- Put lid on jar
- Put jar in fridge
- Wait
To make large batch,
Bring while milk to boil, let cool to 112-ish°F. Stir in a couple spoonfuls of yogurt you're cloning, put into double walled, steel thermos, wrap in towel and place in oven or other out of the way non drafty place and let set for at least 8 hours. Will have to strain a bit of the liquid out, but it's still perfectly good if you dont.
I do all this in my instapot and do the 24 hour incubation. It's so much cheaper then buying store yogurt in bulk. A gallon of milk lasts most of the month

i was with my mother’s family and they were talking to me about my religious studies major. my great aunt asked me what the definition of hell was, and i responded “well i suppose it depends on who you ask.” and nearly all the protestants in the group decided that hell was “the absence of god” which i suppose is a fair answer, albeit not a universal one. my cousin’s wife was playing with her 3-year-old daughter and she says “well mommy says that hell is a mcdonald’s playplace” asdfghjhgfd
this 3-year-old girl is so fucking hilarious. her mothers have signed her up for a toddler yoga class, and so she has adopted a very unique language. this child also has an imaginary friend named “mom” which is, in her mind, the boss of her two mothers. for example, my cousin’s wife explained to me how her daughter got mad at them one time. the little girl situated herself in the corner of her crib, pretended to type on a cell phone and said “im writing an email to mom right now and telling her how bad you two are. namaste.”
the family’s Big Theory about “Mom” is that both my cousin and her wife are referred to as “Mommy” and “Mama.” The nickname “Mom” is not used in the house because it would just be confusing. However, when interacting with the world, people tell their daughter that they will “tell her mom” if she is doing something wrong. so this child automatically assumes there is this greater “Mom” figure that is responsible for distributing universal justice.
To be fair to the toddler, that’s pretty much how religions get started.
Our Mom, who art gonna hear about this,
i think it's pretty awesome how all public transport is free actually, it's like really nice of them how you can just not pay if you don't feel like it or can't afford it
this is a post about fare evasion #fare evasion gang
one thing I never see mentioned anywhere but which was pretty much standard in left wing circles when I was a teenager is that when a random ticket check happens on the train and you actually happen to have a ticket, then you take an incredibly long time to look for it in your bag even though you know exactly where it is so other people have time to get up and change waggons or even get out. I also knew some white cis guys who would just routinely act suspicious by getting up and looking over their shoulders at the ticket control guy in the hopes that they (with actual tickets) would raise suspicion so the ticket people wouldn't just go straight to the only poc or homeless looking people on the train.

Just saw this last night
This may seem silly but it's often the only way to find out what systems are really in use.
People get so many damn emails every day that something from IT saying "hey we're shutting down Foobar001" is basically invisible to them.
But if you turn it off, they'll notice. Especially because often the reason no one replies is that they honestly DON'T use Foobar001, but they use BazQux069 which itself uses Foobar001, and they don't know that.
This is why it's very common to do "soft" shutdowns. You turn it off, but leave everything in place in case someone screams and you need to bring it back. A week later, you archive it, but keep the files on hand so you can easily put it back together... And you don't delete that for at least a year, if ever.
What's really cool is thanks to some petunias we can do this with genes now
Explain?!
They were trying to make some petunias Extra Purple so they put more Purple Gene in and instead they turned out white.
It turns out if you add an additional copy of an existing gene, the organism will assume it's a virus and just turn it off
And this has become hugely important in genetic research because now we can turn off genes one at a time to see what they do
EDIT: it's not like an automatic thing there's some specific mechanism with like an r in the name? But I have forgotten it. There was a video once.
RNA interference (RNAi)?
