  • Upfront, they were not perfect. The recipe I got was good/treaty and it definitely scratched the same kind of itch, but I don’t think it was particularly close in terms of flavor.

    HOWEVER, I think there are several factors to improve results.

    1. Not everyone you could hire is going to be the same caliber. Some will be better than others and finding the best may not be easy. I don’t think I ended up hiring the best candidate.

    2. Actual sample analysis. I was prepared to send the scientist a sample of the drink but they claimed they didn’t need it and I trusted their judgment. In the future, I would look to hire only someone who will analyze the sample with lab equipment.














  • I’ve recently started putting together a home studio and made the mistake of asking online what I should consider before painting my monitors. Nearly half of the people who responded said, “Don’t do it, it’ll ruin the resale value.” Like dude, I’m not here to be on a god damned gear treadmill. I’m here to make music. Gear is just a necessary evil to me and if I never have to buy monitors again I would be so happy. So, If I can get some extra joy out of them and make them mine, I’m gonna.





  • Thank you so much for saying this! One time there was a Twitter thread that started with someone asking, “What are some things that people believe/accept without having liked into it further.” Someone responded with this “the original phrase is… covenant…womb” and the OP replied with someone like, “yeah people are such sheep”. I wanted to explode.

    But to back your point, you can go and read for yourself the very first instance of this phrase in context as the very old book it comes from has been digitally scanned. It’s old enough to be in middle English, but I still thought it was fairly easy to make out the original phrase as we know it today.


  • Haven’t seen these mentioned yet:

    1. Terror In Resonance

    This is one of the newer shows made by Shinichiro Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo). Follows the crew of a small terrorist organization as they implement their various plots - lots of intrigue that makes you want to keep watching.

    1. Megalobox

    Follows a boxer’s journey in a semi-dystopian future. Very mature and themes of adulthood, especially season 2. And I mean real life mature, not gore and titties. I’ve never watched an anime that I found so relatable as an adult human being. Music is also extremely top tier and I’m personally a huge fan of it’s animation style.
