I prefer local markets for fresh and domestically grown produce, and because I prefer giving to the community instead of to chains. However, there are things which can only be found in larger markets because they are not grown/availble locally or currently not in season.
Local markets for quality and price, supermarkets for variety.
That’s a nice idea. When cooking for a large group, I like to have a variety of foods on the table to make sure everyone can find something they like. Sometimes I’ll make a large stack of crepes with sweet options (Eurocrem, jam, fresh fruit) and savory ones (cheese, shredded meat, ketchup, hot sauce, ajvar). I’ll also have hummus and crisp vegetables for dipping into it (carrot, celery, cucumber) and salad options. Other times I’ll make French toast and have a platter of assorted meats and cheeses. I also like making something similar to burek or pita with various fillings (spinach, mushrooms, potatoes) and cut them into smaller pieces. Ooh, and of course coffee, water, juice, and spirits to go with it.
Veel plezier! :)
Local museums, galleries, and exhibitions for discovering art in-person.
Lemmy has a community for sharing art, !artshare@lemmy.world , and there might be more niche communities for specific art styles depending on what you’re looking for. Art communities on Reddit have some very talented members (you can use a front end to view them if you don’t have an account).
Artists that document their process and have art in the portfolio in a similar style from before AI took off are more likely to be genuine.
Miso soup is something I make often and guests have commented that there is a seafood-like taste.
Mushrooms cooked the right way can be used to imitate mussels.
Seaweed/kelp in any form add an oceany flavor.
I haven’t tried these recipes yet, but maybe you’ll find one that you like: vegan seafood recipes.
Tactical salad, lol.
(While chewing lettuce) “Some of you may die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make.”
With the right marketing, it’s a sushi bowl now. Different arrangement, same taste. Besides, it’s all brown in the end :)
Spending time with my favorite people, helping others, finishing goals I set for myself, being outdoors, and listening to music are the big ones.
Then there are smaller everyday things like autumn and winter weather, good food and beverages, good books and films, putting effort into looking nice, and so on.
How about you, OP?
Is SantasMagicalComfort like a limited holiday edition that is brought out once a season?
Love seeing original references to usernames and inside jokes in the community.
It’s in the reflection of the monitor.
I don’t want to have to create an account for everything. Even when account creation was required in the past, it would be enough to have a username and password (sometimes email address). Now often times there are so many unnecessary mandatory fields.
I like my devices and appliances to have one dedicated function and to do it well, without extra features, preferably available offline. Music is listened to on the mp3. The TV is only the display and never the content source.
I still prefer in-person interactions, jobs, lessons, and shopping to online ones (but support having online options for those who prefer them).
If everyone was discouraged from writing because of the amount of existing reading material, we would never have anything new. That’s only putting unnecessary pressure on yourself if you are writing recreationally. Write what you like and adjust it for an audience later if you have to.
Write down any ideas or thoughts that come to you - they don’t have to be organized. Once enough of them are on paper, you’ll instinctively look for ways to connect or refine them. Ask for feedback, look for works in your preferred genres for inspiration.
For this example, I would loosely define an event or item as historical if it was characteristic to a recognizable time period that people can instantly associate it with, or if it evokes feelings of nostalgia.
You’re right, sorry about that. Since top-level domains are allowed, I have been able to find most books in various languages using resources provided either on https://fmhy.net/reading or on VK.
The article specifically mentions young people who use AI social chatbots. The type of person who turns to AI for companionship probably struggled socially even before its invention. Spending most of their time talking to bots who are designed to always be friendly, agreeable, and never offend or reject them is setting them up for disappointment when they have to interact with real people who don’t behave that way.
If you share the title and author, I can try searching for it.
Adding a few other alternatives not listed on the website: Tuta, Mailbox.org, Mailfence. There’s also StartMail if you don’t mind a paid option.
Shrinkflation has been common for a while already, so it’s probably safe to assume the product is smaller. For food products, I try to shop at places that sell by weight instead of by package. It’s often cheaper that way too.
Dark jokes aside, it’s common for symptoms to change during the timeline of the pregnancy. Some women say they start to feel more energetic and less nauseous during the second trimester, for example.
