There is cooklang which I use in Obsidian. Maybe there are shared repos out there. They have a discord server you could check on

Living next to a straight major road is annoying. I've lived in a couple places like this near the richer neighborhoods. Rich assholes keep racing their sports cars very late into the night.

I brought it up with neighbors but they just turn into Karens and call the police, who do jack shit. I've considered throwing some spikes on the road lol but I don't wanna screw up the tires of everyone who passes by

Yes! I grew up with Indian style porridges like khichidi and upma with Indian pickles, but went through a phase preferring sweeter Western style breakfasts. But lately I'm turning back to savory. I think the heartiness makes me feel more full and for longer

One Western combo I came up with and really like:

• Oatmeal
• Chopped Field Roast vegan apple maple sage sausage
• Fried onion
• Fried garlic
• Generic Western herb mixes (Italian blend, herbs de provence, table blend, etc.)
• Some vegan savory flavorings and salts (soy sauce, MSG, yeast extracts, mushroom extracts, vegetable stock or bouillon)

Yeah you're right. I guess I mean outright ignoring one part is worse than not focusing on it. For example with language, you could just say there is a language but not actually flesh it out and translate things, or even just have a babel fish universal translator contrivance.

Although I was also thinking more like the Bangladeshi independence struggle, which was rooted in linguistic identity. It's one thing to never explain why the aliens in the MCU all know English, but entirely ignoring the role of language in human history seems flawed.

Especially since I consider language and culture in general as important to species-essence or human nature as much the ability to perform labor, so it should be present in the dialectic of history

Same here, but I also got disillusioned with the online communities and fantasy/scifi literature. I feel like there's a lot of focus on "hard" worldbuilding which is to say magic systems, tectonic plates, and deterministic (and somewhat racist) theories.

But not enough of the social aspect like language and culture which linguistics/conlanging and anthropology covers. Dialectical materialism then ties them together, the physical and the social. It's the final stage of worldbuilding quality you could say

But a lot of worldbuilders hate on the above because it's too much work apparently. Though I find that weird when they are still willing to draw detailed maps and calculate tectonic plates movement idk.

I remember watching Brandon Sanderson's lectures on writing when he said to ignore language. I vividly remember my disillusionment starting then.

Someone who ignores details of the real world to create a fictional world but still calls it as detailed as the real world is very suspicious to me.

Sounds like you might enjoy people being honest to you rather than enjoying compliments or criticism. Criticism is more blunt when said to someone's face, but compliments can seem disingenuous, so maybe you don't believe the compliments subconsciously

If you can put the grounds in a bag or filter, it'll save a lot of time in the future when you might want to filter it so it's not like drinking sand or silt.

Also if you choose to filter, know that filtering can take a long time because the smaller grounds can clog up the pores. So go from filtering course to fine eg. use a sieve, then cheesecloth, then paper coffee filters, etc. based on how filtered you want it or your patience

I'm liking cold brew, served hot. Tastes more chocolatey and less bitter than hot brews

We have our senses in the form of our physical sense-organs, and the nervous system centralized in the brain to make sense of the sensory inputs to the organs.

That's about it in terms of individual bodies. We can communicate with other people and things which extends our range.

Internally, there is a lot of "range" ie our mind can figure out or guess at things, but it's not always correct, and any information we gain from this is stuck inside our heads.

Even when we act on thoughts, the thought is still inside us. However much we describe our thoughts, we don't really transfer them so to speak. Thoughts don't impart physical actions as much as me writing down my crush's name on a piece of paper causes a relationship to form. It's material things and people who ultimately cause actions.

There's a scenario in philosophy, in the west called Gettier problems. Using the Indian philosopher Dharmottara's words:

A fire has just been lit to roast some meat. The fire hasn’t started sending up any smoke, but the smell of the meat has attracted a cloud of insects. From a distance, an observer sees the dark swarm above the horizon and mistakes it for smoke. "There’s a fire burning at that spot," the distant observer says. Does the observer know that there is a fire burning in the distance?

This is to say, we can get all the information we think we need, process it correctly, and be correct, yet not correct. This is how I would consider scenarios which feel like something freaky just happened

He's a capitalist, he should know buying out competition would be preferable to destroying them and letting the capital go to waste
