Today I think I am finally going to take a Sunday off and make chicken mole with spanish rice. My mom used to make this for us when I was young it was my favorite meal she made us.

Yesterday I did a little grilling at the lab and it came out great everyone seemed to enjoy it.

Been on a cooking kick lately.

reply

I will be grilling a beautiful sirloin steak later today. What is your go-to method that you recommend for the perfect steak?

Would love advice from @DarthCoin as well 😂

reply

I am not entirely great a cooking steaks on a grill, I just try not to over cook it but @k00b is

reply

Advice: wait for grill to be very hot and only give it a few minutes on each side. When it doubt, or if you're picky, use a meat thermometer.

reply

I am a simple guy, I like simple things. I like to make the meat on a big hot rock. Slowly... Just put some salt and done.

Meat on rock is rock'n'roll baby! https://postimg.cc/YGgjYJgp

Reading an interesting ZeroHedge article this morning https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/currency-wars-versus-gold-standards

Will be grilling a steak later. What's your favorite method?

reply

Nothing beats a grilled steak but pan seering in the kitchen is my most frequent method

reply

Absolutely. Especially when you live in a place where grilling season is 7 months. Will be manning the bbq later today.

Today is figure drawing day for this pleb👨‍🎨... excited because I haven't done figure drawing in a while... also because it's a free session and is hosted at a local beer brewery in Charlotte NC (Free Range Brewing) AND this will be an opportunity to scout new plebs into BTC, let's see how that goes 🤞

Series to watch in weekend:

  • Yellowstone (Kevin Costner)
  • 1883 - spin off of Yellowstone
  • 1923 - spin off of Yellowstone (With Harrison Ford)

Really good ones. Enjoy!

reply

Those are all so good. Patiently waiting for the second half of Yellowstone's latest season.

The grandson of the real life owner of the Yellowstone ranch is a friend and a bitcoiner.

reply

the episode with the proposal to sell meat directly to restaurant chain was immediately make me think to bitcoiners and beef initiative. Maybe they were inspired.

reply

It made me think of the beef initiative too!

reply

2 episodes into the last season of Yellowstone. Haven't watched the spin offs yet.

hahahaha people should more often do this: "fuck it, I will not do anything else today, will just do (watch, read, listen) what Darth said many days ago."

And don't forget: Smile, tomorrow will be worse.

Sometimes, myself, I have days that I DO NOTHING. Just sit and look to the sky, maybe think. Sometimes, "empty days" are really good.

reply

not just from you, but also many good inputs from other stackers.

When I'm doing nothing, it might end up being one of the most creative/ productive days, so I enjoy doing nothing, no plans, no phones, nothing.

Preparing my backpack. Tomorrow will go back to my citadel to see if I can continue a bit more to work through all these rainy days.

reply

Do you usually get good days this time of year?

reply

hardly. 2-3 days of rain, 1-2 days of sun. I need to push as much as I can to continue until I finish those 3 walls of bags. Is almost done. The hard part is to fill the bags with very wet dirt, is sticky and hard to manipulate. I hope October will be much sunny and calm.

Fun fact: if you ever wondered why my name is Natalia, because I really like Natalie Portman from black swan, so I chose her name Natalie, but there are many Natalies.! I didn't want people to be confused, so I changed to the Spanish one: Natalia

Then later I realized that she was in Star War too, what a nice name I had chosen 🥸

reply

Black Swan scared the hell out of me.

reply

why, it is such a nice one; I don't remember exactly why I like her so much after this movie, maybe I should rewatch it too

deleted by author

Amidala (Natalie) it represent FREEDOM in the movie. Anakin / Darth loved so much freedom.

His whole struggle was all about loving freedom. Few people understands the whole story.

Now I'm reading it's a Tibetan Buddhist imaginary place, I guess.

reply

I just know Three Days Grace

listening to your song now :) I like the instrumentals at the beginning

Also reminds me a bit of CCR

edit: Actually, I was looking for this song from CCR because of the instrumentals at the beginning

reply

I am a big CCR fan. I never got to see the original lineup, but I saw John Fogarty live about 10 years ago. I still remember where I was the moment I first heard Bad Moon Rising. I thought for sure the lyrics were "There's a bathroom on the right". Loved that as a kid, if course. I had all their albums, and Fogarty's solo later on.

reply

Same time period. I like the band's name. Some reference to an old description of a cold night as three dog night, because you slept with three dogs in your bed to keep warm.

ᕦ(ò_óˇ) Day 2 of exercising everyday before the saloon opens

I went to the calisthenics park without much of a plan. My goal was just to keep it easy since this is just day 2.

When I arrived, I decided I'll start with 10 counter push-ups, 10 squats, about 10 lunges (just lunged across the width of the park which is about 5m and back) and 10 inverted rows.

I then did this 2 more times. I already struggled with the push-ups and rows on my first set but I kept trying as good as I can without getting too sloppy.

Then I wanted to do some knee raises since I like this exercise.

Did 10 and then I felt like maybe this was too much now.

Back home I just sat down for a while since I struggled with the stairs to my apartment at the fourth floor. Had to take a break.

I think tomorrow I'll sure just go for a walk, lol

Great job

I must expand my horizons. I'm still mired in the early 1970s with a few exceptions.

reply

Nothing wrong with that lol!

reply

I second that. 70s were good times

reply

Of course I agree. The problem is I will make snap judgments about music instantly. Like, I have an aversion to anything that I feel is overproduced, which basically means music that could not be recreated live by say a 5 member band.

reply

Over produced is an interesting term.. I dislike music mass produced, maybe which is sterile or chemical (perhaps even ‘fiat’).

Would you describe ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ as over produced? I think it’s an amazing song and very innovative and strange and complex. And almost impossible to perform all of it live in it’s day.

I always tend to think if it’s not able to be performed live then its not worthy.

reply

Perfect example! I was not a huge Queen fan, but that song transcended my narrow rules. There are other exceptions too.

One of the most interesting things I have learned from my travels and experience is that the best place to live is often well-kept, and there are many unknown ( often easy ) ways to get residencies, but not many people promote those because, well, why attract more people to destroy the beauty and peace? 😂

But then you would see many marketers promoting those expensive ones yet with averaging living quality, because more money is being made in those well-designed programs.!
