made this dish just yesterday for my meat munchers with roasted pork leftovers, peppers and cumin/smoked paprika/rosemary/msg/espresso/sugar/garlic powder
if you use an instant pot you don’t need to soak the beans just high pressure for an hour gets it done. I pop it into the oven for a couple hours to get the maillard reaction flavoring anyway though. Didn’t do any mashing on this batch as well, by request. a family favorite for sure i do this weekly!
1lb of dried pinto beans, 48oz of veggie stock, garlic, onion, cumin. Cook on high pressure for an hour. Mash it all up and mmm mmm mmmm
omfg are those jammies that is so cute

Hello dear. I’m trans and Hexbear is pretty much my favorite place on the internet. Here’s a link to the current trans mega! https://hexbear.net/post/4407227
I love it so much!
There’s a lot of content so you can browse whatever interests you. My feed is mostly girls (almost) kissing, street food being prepared, pets and interesting questions being discussed. Fashion dancing. There’s this bass guitar girl who is the coolest person i have ever seen she’s like a character from a movie. I have found many queer and transgender people there which makes me feel very welcome. I haven’t received any guff from being openly trans there.
There are very few ads. What there is is influencer style product placement stuff easily avoided. I truly love this aspect.
There is almost no contention. The moderation is swift and heavy handed and if things aren’t kept light they get removed. I have seen serious topics like transgender rights being discussed but no arguing seems to be tolerated and no hate speech. There’s been a couple ‘transgender is a mental illness’ posts i saw before they were deleted but they were all by americans. I understand that political posts are removed.
The people are lovely and amazing. I have a post of my cat with 100 comments saying how cute she is and showing me their adorable cats. Everyone i interact with is very nice and positive and they seem to be genuinely caring. Most of them seem truly delighted that we are there. Some Chinese living abroad lament the anglicisation of what was for them a remote window back into China.
the interface is very usable. I use a translation app to write my replies but XHS added an inline translation button and you can long press some other text for translation so understanding things is generally easy. I take screen captures and my photo app translates any other on screen text.
You can’t use the shopping tab. Eventually you’re presented with a list of chinese cities to choose from and can’t input your own city.
big fat raise
I knew a painting contractor and he swore by KILZ if there was anything like nicotine or smoke on the walls beforehand. He said any regular primer and it would seep through but KILZ would block just about anything.
AWWW!!
I bought myself a new dress, not my first dress but the first one I picked out myself. It makes me feel unreasonably happy just big huffs of euphoria on tap. I’m temporarily wearing another dress so i don’t suck up all the happy too fast gotta ration it out so it lasts longer.
it’s a little sappy but Chappel Roan’s Red Wine Supernova is what finally broke through my thick skull and cracked my egg 7 or so months ago. Specifically the line about standing there in gogo boots and a short skirt waiting for a pretty girl to bite on you. I kept listening to it over over and i just thought it was neat and then this lightbulb went off and i realized oh hey i want that to be me. I’m the girl in the skirt wanting to be bit!
we all float down here

What indian food did you have?
I finally had the chance to use a modern heat pump and they are FANTASTIC, I have only seen it in heating mode but even with very low temps it was very warm and cozy.
about a tablespoon of each for full batch like that. The espresso is freshly ground. I think i may have added cayenne and onion powder too.
