My favourite filling was probably chestnut paste because YUMMMMMMM, but I could be down with sakura-based stuff. Cherry-flavoured items are usually either amazing or terrible for my tastes.

Re: Interrogation Room - dunya
The doctor is (sorta) a panda, the world is beautiful and surreally animal-forward, and the anime feels like a show from the 90s, in a good way. Like Bebop/Trigun good way.A plague-like wind blows across the arid, sandy expanse of a post-apocalyptic Japan. As it sweeps over the living and nonliving alike, rust is all that remains in its wake. The cause of the catastrophic state of the world is believed to be mushroom spores. Bisco Akaboshi, known as the "Man-Eating Mushroom," is a wanted criminal archer whose arrows instantly grow mushrooms wherever they land. However, he is in truth a "Mushroom Protector," a person who spreads fungi in order to enrich the land and return it to its previous state.
Alongside the crab Akutagawa and young doctor Milo Nekoyanagi, Bisco ventures through the wastelands of Japan searching for the legendary "Sabikui"—a panacean mushroom said to devour all forms of rust.

One of these, probably, though not sure. My mind sometimes sorta mutes the direct pained elements and leaves the "low self-worth" and general sad/upset elements.

Re: Interrogation Room - osieorb18
Still pandas though clearly dunya might make that change to snakes.
Procrastinating on tasks, not contacting people for a long time, not folding my laundry.
Probably not by most people's standards, but I don't think it's a bad one. I only talk with them once or twice a month.
"Hey Osie, open up about your fears on the internet." Heh.
Spiders are fine. I don't care for overly large ones, but I recognize that at any realistic size, they're more scared of me than I am of them and they fulfill an important role to keep away things that carry diseases.
- Slight fears of heights and germs.
- Fear of losing close friends and loved ones by not being good enough.
Only if I knew how it would affect things and probably only if I could take 1-4 people along. The problem for me though is that I wouldn't want to go back to a time of high enough risk, and life expectancy generally goes up over time... So probably something relatively minor, like within the last 50 years. Definitely not far before the birth of my parents (1960s).
What's a weekend? The days all blur together.
I kinda want to go to a farmer's market. Cooking some hotpot on Sunday.
Once I get out of the shower, I'm headed for a walk.

Hmm...
The last sandwich I had was a vegan reuben. Reubens are probably not my favourite type of sandwich, but I do like getting them occasionally.
In terms of something a bit more exciting, I think I'd go for putting romesco sauce and charred scallions on a sandwich, but that feels a bit naughty.
Hummus + Arugula/Sprouts/Cress + Sliced Almonds + Cucumber + Lemon Zest gogogo.
- Hot dogs with Vanilla icing.
- Celery, Peanut Butter, and Sriracha. (Until they try it)

I don't watch a lot of live action stuff, but I binged most of Blacklist semi-recently.
Some actors definitely seem overpaid. On the flip-side, most production crew members are underpaid.
Uhhhhhhhhh... Smoking cigarettes in public should result in death by burning at the stake?
It is difficult to think of a good answer here...
Anyone who desires to enact legislation in regards to prisons should be required to stay in a relevant prison as a prisoner for a year?
Kennedy was one of the worst US presidents?
"People who act edgy or memetic on the internet are compensating for an inadequate sense of self-worth." is a good one, albeit probably not that unpopular.

Hey, me too!DaughterOfOmega wrote: ↑Tue Feb 01, 2022 3:04 am I'm fat, and I have a hard time losing weight. It's mostly stress driven in my life, but do you have any kinds of food that I should make that can be filling without making me hate my body?
I tend to go for bitter greens, personally, like Kale and Arugula. Having a simple salad at least once a day makes a bit of a difference.
I also like having Celery and Peanut Butter. It feels childish, but especially adding Sriracha to it makes it a great snack for me.
I avoid eating a lot of bread in a day; at most something like a bagel and maybe a small roll, at which point I don't have more than the latter on the following day.
Beyond that, limiting proteins to fish, chicken, and the occasional egg can help. I have duck or lamb every once in a while as a treat.
Cutting sugary drinks and carb-heavy snacks out of one's diet entirely is a big step. Similarly, my personal sugar and alcohol rules for this month plus are 0-3 days with dessert and 0-2 days with alcohol in a week.
Another thing that I personally find helpful is to have a rigorous set of rules for some of the basics. Here's at least some of the ones I try to follow (and at least sometimes succeed at).
- All technology off by midnight, if not sooner.
- First tasks when waking up are a drink of water, then a shower, then a 30-60 minute walk, followed by breakfast, in that order.
- When you feel hungry, first have a drink of water, then wait a bit. Usually it's your body saying it's thirsty, not hungry.
- Make sure the snacks you have around the house are low in sugar/carbs. Having a snack or two at some point in the day can be fine. I personally am partial to a small handful of unsalted cashews.
- If water feels boring, get the zero-sweetener flavoured waters like La Croix/Soleil/Waterloo/(Some San Pellegrinos). They can be an adjustment, but are worth it in the long run.
- Have one, moderately full, plate of food for a meal.
- Take at least an hour break from technology at some point during the day.
- Don't eat between midnight and 7 AM. Those are sleeping hours. Your metabolism is slowed, so your body saves calories as fat.

Re: Interrogation Room - osieorb18
Quick-grilled or broiled to Jelly Bean texture, IMO. Though you can even just throw salmon in the microwave for 4-5 minutes with a bit of lemon juice and olive oil.
Internal temperature of 135-145ºF, depending on personal preference. As a general rule, I avoid undercooking white fish since it's generally riskier than salmon (despite the similar name to a certain foodborne illness).
Breast? I like baked in olive oil, garlic, and balsamic vinegar. About 30 minutes or to an internal temperature of 165ºF
That said, thighs are usually superior.
The latter, easily. Heck, I'd generally just rather fight a human than a marmot any day.
Both. I find cats slightly more enjoyable but have more respect for dogs, I think would be the way to put it?

About 3 inches longer, on a guesstimate.
I've only done so in a very controlled environment, but it seems like a fun experiment at home. The main thing I would recommend with any of those sorts of things is to designate location/equipment for it and make sure you'll remember it. I tried making injera batter over lockdown in 2020 and it stunk up the whole house. Smelled like sewage.

Re: Interrogation Room - osieorb18
Not much; I made some insensitive jokes and was a bit of a brat at times as a kid. But anything I've done in my life has gotten me to this point, so I don't know that I would change anything. I suppose there were a few moments when I lost my temper that I would have preferred to have weathered through, potentially. Finding ways to avoid hitting rock bottom when that happened would be a thing, but again, it helped me grow into who I am today.DaughterOfOmega wrote: ↑Mon Jan 31, 2022 5:00 am What is something you participated in that you regret?

- I was born in Chicago, IL. (1993)
- We moved to New Haven, CT.
- We then moved to near Sacramento, CA (With possibly a bit of time in Berkeley along the way), the area in which I grew up. (1996-2010)
- My family went for sabbatical for a year to Ithaca, NY while I was still in middle school. (2005)
- After I graduated from High School, I went to college for Math near Albany, NY. (2010-2014)
- After I graduated from college, I then lived in Madison, WI for a couple years, during most of which I worked for a corporate culinary group at the headquarters of an insurance company. (2014-2016)
- I then went to culinary school in upstate NY (between Albany and NYC). (2016-2018, with an internship in Boston, MA during the summer of 2017)
- After I graduated from culinary school, I then lived in Denver, CO for a while, near the beginning of which I started a long-distance relationship with another mafia player. (2018-2020)
- In August of 2020, having returned to Denver about a month or so prior, I left Denver to avoid being around for a covid surge and chose between Portland, San Francisco, and Seattle. A buddy of mine in the Portland Metro Area offered me a couch on which to crash for a bit, so I stayed there for a while (read: until March of 2021), then worked in the area on and off over the rest of 2021.

In terms of movies... I don't know that I watched any movies in 2021 that I hadn't already seen. I've been intending to watch Shang Chi and Encanto.
In terms of all-time favourites...
Castle
Good Omens
Sherlock
Hellsing
Trigun
Trinity Blood
12 Angry Men
Rocky Horror Picture Show
Triplets of Belleville

Not often, outside of flavour for games. I used to write restaurant reviews for a short time when helping out with the newspaper in college (the first time). Funnily enough, I do read a lot and could see myself writing a fiction story, but it'd probably be some kind-of surreal insanity.

Cooking takes time and attention. A lot of people get frustrated and/or give up because they don't want to spend one or the other. Patience is a virtue.
Rene Redzepi.
I wanted to do bioinformatics (e.g. indexing the human genome) when I first started college. My thesis was on Kasteleyn's Theorem; which in one real-life form can be stated as "The number of ways you can tile a chessboard with dominos can be expressed as the permanent (a slightly complicated sum of the elements) of a matrix." (A part of Graph Theory, and relevant to crystal structures and flow rates.)
Sorta in that I have used my ability to use a computer well to be more effective in menu planning and research. I've had some morbid curiosity in the "Neural Network creates recipes" experiment, though.
I'm gonna be a bit basic here and say blue as an overall answer, but realistically it absolutely depends on context.

The first thing that comes to mind is a degree of belief that all members of organized religions were comedically stupid and/or disturbingly evil. That was quickly disproven by actually interacting with people. Turns out that critical thinking helps to dispel prejudice. Who woulda thunk it?
I listen to a lot. As somewhat of an audiophile, I've found myself using Amazon Music nowadays since most music is in some degree of HD quality.
My go-to genres include but are not limited to: classical music (since a young age), musicals, trance/dance, anime music, latin pop, asian pop, eurovision music, a bit of "adjacent to whatever my friends and family listened to at some point", and relatively acapella/drums-and-bass music. Also a lot of random comedy stuff.

Re: Interrogation Room - osieorb18
- In elementary school, comfortably literature, though it shifted into math/CS later on.
- When in college for Mathematics (originally Computer Science), probably my undergraduate thesis by a decent margin; I got pretty bored with a lot of the bureaucracy in the introductory classes.
- When in culinary school, my favourite subject would be either Cuisines of Asia or Food History.

Re: Interrogation Room - osieorb18
I was finishing a bachelor's degree in mathematics and was doing food service on the side both as a job and a hobby. I started out in front of house, waiting tables, then shifted into back of house, cooking food. I've always enjoyed cooking, and had some degree of inspiration from my maternal grandfather and paternal grandmother.
No idea in the long run, but a few dishes I prepared prior to graduating high school include:
Tuna Pasta Nicoise (a concept from my dad) - Macaroni and Canned Tuna with Green Olives, Scallions, Mustard and Vinegar
Tummytickler (from Roald Dahl) - A 2-layer quesadilla, again with olives and scallions in addition to mustard and mayonnaise, pan-fried
Pizza Bagel - Bagel with tomato sauce, cheese, onions, stuck in the microwave
The first dish that I prepared FULLY from basic ingredients (not counting something like scrambled eggs) would arguably be one of these three:
Cold Noodles and Cilantro-Peanut-Soy Sauce - Somen Noodles with a ton of cilantro, scallions, fresh tofu, and cilantro-peanut-soy sauce.
Bokkeumbap (Korean Fried Rice) - Rice with Shrimp, Lap Cheong Sausage, Garlic, Ginger, and Oyster Sauce
Mushroom Stroganoff - Linguine with Mushroom-Cream Sauce
Heritage? Not unless you count 1880s Soviet Russia (Which is now Eastern Europe).
Background? I have an aunt-in-law, girlfriend, and many close friends who are of Asian heritage. Most of my interest in Asian cuisines comes from personal experience. Despite the rest of my body rejecting it sometimes, I've always had more of a palate for Asian and Latin cuisines. (And while I still usually find them enjoyable to cook and/or eat, most non-Latin non-African Western foods, be they American or European, don't usually EXCITE me in the same way.)

Re: Interrogation Room - osieorb18
I usually design or host instead, but I think I'd have to go for... Lights Out 3 where I won the game for Town. Though that's only sort-of Mafia... Hmm. For something more traditional, let's go for Zero Escape Mafia since despite all of the insanity it provided a lot of good memories.fingersplints wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 12:16 pm What has been your favourite game of mafia you have ever played?
Creepy Doll (Role): The Creepy Doll passes a doll to someone on Night 1. Whoever has the doll can pass it around as a Night action. The Creepy Doll wins the game if a person holding the doll dies before the Creepy Doll.fingersplints wrote: ↑Sun Jan 30, 2022 12:16 pm What is a mafia ability you have not received that you would like to?
Panda. I even enjoy the taste of bamboo!
