- Comment on Evading suffering is _itself_ a form of suffering 1 day ago:
as a buddhist i think this refers to the inherent struggle that is life itself. every organism is born hungry and needs to fight that constant hunger or die. life IS suffering, because only the living need to fight for every minute to just exist., All of our existential suffering falls from that

oh that’s pretty neat! This is going to cut my cost per gallon by a decent chunk that Côte des Blancs champagne yeast is not cheap but i’m also lazy so bought more instead of washing. Being able to stretch it even a few batches is cool. I checked it again just now and it’s going strong, too!

it’s looking good! I poured my juice and some invert cage sugar right into the lees in the primary and about 12 hours on i can see bubbles so it looks like it started! Pretty cool if it takes this will be the first alcohol I have made without directly tesring a yeast packet.
i wonder how many times i can do this before the primary needs to be sanitized.

I have to rack a bunch of hooch tonight and start a new batch and i’m going to try this thanks for the advice. i have looked into washing the yeast but it never occurred to me to just toss the few extra cups i get after racking into the next batch.
i switched to raw sugar and made invert sugar with that and it’s the most active batch of yeast i have seen yet so i think it should work well!

- Comment on Please settle a debate. A kid in the womb is better off listening to stuff like cat in the hat so it can be read to it at bedtime? Or history of the world during the womb and read it later? 1 week ago:
I read to my child every night while they were in the womb and when they came out my reading voice was like drugs it would knock them out so quickly if they were sleepy!

- Comment on A Polish jalapeño pastry 2 weeks ago:
the ‘joke’ is that they are spicy (jalapeno) because poles are stupid. unless there’s some interpretation that isn’t really shitty that i’m overlooking it’s a classic right wing ‘joke’.

I know www.rainbowrailroad.org is an org that facilitates this and www.translifeline.org might be able to get you with the visa and such.
I wish you luck. I would be heading out as well if it was feasible.
