Ha! Touché. You are one with the memes.

Digredior was a shit attempt at me trying to come up with the Latin word for destruction for a new WoW character I was making some around 15 years ago. I don’t know what stupid fucking translator I used, hit it essentially means, “I digress”. However, I’ve always liked how it sounded, so I’ve used it here and there for various alternate accounts on various platforms…

lol, I can dig it man.

Not saying Ukraine isn’t a quagmire for Russia, but the US’s role in Vietnam bears little similarity to what NK is trying to accomplish in Ukraine. The US wasn’t licking France’s boot as a geopolitical move. This is 100% Kim Jung Un trying to get into Putin’s good graces.

That sounds fucking awesome. I’ve also done it with some home made apple pie filling I had leftover from Thanksgiving and also some dried apricots.

Oh shit. I’m sorry about that.

Does your rice maker look like this guy?

Or does it look more like this guy?

That second one is the one I have and that recipe works as described in that rice cooker. If you’re using one that’s more like the first one, it may heat too quickly and boil over if I had to guess.

If that’s the case, I’d probably just halve all the ingredients… a whole cup of steel cut oats is 4 servings based on the Nutrition Facts on the carton, so depending on how many people you’re feeding so your mileage may vary. If you find you’ve got room in the rice cooker with half the ingredients above, then adjust accordingly.

Keep in mind, raisins soak up quite a lot of moisture when they cook… more or less on the raisins will change the texture of the final porridge, so if you go less with the raisins, you might consider cooking it longer to evaporate some more of the moisture off and get a thicker porridge.

Again… sorry I wasn’t more explicit with my description in my first comment. Good luck on the next attempt.

No problem. Made some this morning not long after this post. It was amazing… again.

We’ve been getting insane mileage out of our rice cooker since we bought it back in May. It gets use almost daily, if not for rice but for oatmeal in the morning.

It’s a 3 “cup” Toshiba rice cooker (as in the cup that came with the rice cooker which seems to be 3/4 of a US customary measurement cup) and has all sorts of fancy cooking modes.

1c steel cut oats

2-3 cinnamon sticks

1/4 tsp each of ground ginger, cardamom, and allspice

1/8ish tsp ground clove (that stuff is so freaking pungent)

Some fresh ground nutmeg

1/2c raisins

1/4c ish of brown sugar

A good knob of butter

Steel cut oats go with around a 4:1 ratio of liquid to oats, so I usually do 2c of milk and fill it to the 0.5 line on the porridge scale written on the cooking liner. Takes a full hour and a half, but is worth the wait.

And it makes cake. The mother fucker makes CAKE! Love it so much I gifted one to my parents for Christmas.

For standard utensils, silicone spatulas are great, but I recently discovered this thing that is basically a silicone spatula in the shape of a butter knife. AMAZING!

I’m not clicking that link… care to explain the experience?

Bet the dude is happier than most.

Idk, I kinda like it.

Dicks for St. Nick.

Lemon party just freaks out the squares…

I looked at so much depraved shit on that site, the only thing I remember seeing there specifically was the glass jar guy…

And maybe goatse…

Everything else is a blur

Not often I’m reminded of my younger days on Stile Project, taking in all the weird horrific things the internet had to offer.

Things are so much more tame these days.

I need to go watch that again.

I’m not sure they don’t realize they’re not the same thing…

Omfg, is that what he’s saying? He’s misunderstanding people seeking asylum and people from insane asylums?

This is why sycophancy is so dangerous…

Because fuck ‘em, that’s why!
