I obviously never make bread, I never even eat it much, so I'll probably forget about it and it'll die. I made soda bread once before and that actually turned out nicely. I didn't get buttermilk so I just soured some regular milk with lemon juice.

Is there anyone who gets to quarantine anymore? Cases never really went down here but things have been on a gradually opening up trajectory after like 2 months in spring of a halfhearted shutdown. We have unsurprisingly hit some record high rates recently. I can only imagine thanksgiving will spike It further. Even local schools are moving to a hybrid model where it’s like staggered in person classes alongside the distanced learning despite things being objectively worse than when the same schools initially made the decision to move to distance only.

I work for a school system and we have hundreds of kids and teachers quarantined. And the school system is hurtling towards a shutdown (return to 100% online learning) very soon. With many schools already shut down due to no teachers or substitutes. In other news: My kids and I have started studying for the technician license for HAM radio. It's just 35 questions (and you can do it online as long as you can set up a camera for them to watch you) and it's good for 10 years. We also found a radio for 30 bucks. spacetoaster fucked around with this message at 18:34 on Nov 13, 2020 |

I keep saying I'm going to get my amateur license but never study for it. I have the book and everything. I just have no discipline. That's really cool that you can do it online now.

After a full day of chores for me and WAH and going into the lab/production area for the Mrs, we ate a snacking dinner of nice cheeses and olives and bread, watched PBS Newshour while snuggling on the couch,(a Friday tradition with us) and now she's taking a bubble bath in our whirlpool tub and reading her book and I'm dippin' out to post after taking our two fat old hounds (70-80lb Plotts) out for their nightly duties. One of whom has collapsed behind my chair, the other is buried in a blanket in the guest bedroom. Life COULD be worse. Big Beef City fucked around with this message at 02:35 on Nov 14, 2020 |

Cases never really went down here but things have been on a gradually opening up trajectory after like 2 months in spring of a halfhearted shutdown. I was, bullshit-ily, declared essential so I haven't had a single day off work except for the one the day after the shelter at home order came down in march and I texted my boss should I come in, he said "I guess not", I show up around 1pm to grab my work computer and the place is humming because, apparently my boss's boss, since retired, got overruled by the ceo. But fortunately I have close family nearby that takes this poo poo seriously so we've been able to bubble up and hang. Outside of protests I haven't had really any face-to-face socialization since march and don't intend to until this stuff is over. I run and I'm not looking to have my lungs perma-ruined. Basically I went from the least possible amount of isolation in march to the most possible in November without changing anything. The numbers are hosed. I said when the governors were talking about their re-opening plans, it's just a feedback mechanism to keep a constant infection level between 2% - 7%. And wouldn't you know it. The number of people baking bread, brewing beer, and in my case both those and growing mushrooms, you think there'd be more bedrock understanding of how much work it is to fully sanitize a space.

Having symptoms, testing negative, and getting told it's fine to come back to work even though the policy is to stay out for 14 days from the onset of symptoms. Because the tests can't possibly be wrong.

Nope. Regular test. The only thing different this time was that they asked me to blow my nose first. This seemed a bad idea in such a small room, but they said it was part of the procedure now.

I dropped a bottle of Dr. Bronner's peppermint soap on the shower floor and it landed right side up, the lid broke off, and it shot a stream directly into my eye. It's been 20 minutes and it still burns like poo poo and is all blurry. Kinda worried here. That's what I'm doing in quarantine right now. I actually started Couch 2 5k and showered afterwards. That'll teach me to shower again. I always get eye damage somehow, which is the worst. I got laser surgery in maybe 2014 and I have permanent eye pain when I push on them. I scratched my cornea last year and had to go to the emergency room. Now this. Pennywise the Frown fucked around with this message at 20:34 on Nov 14, 2020 |

Well poo poo. Here's the Material Safety Data Sheet for Castile Soap.quote:Section 4: First Aid Measures poo poo lol. It's burning less. I flushed it for quite a while. Eye drops hurt badly. I called the VA and they said I can go to a local ER here and hopefully they'll pay for it since all of their in-network stuff is closed right now. I might wait a little while though since it feels a little better. My vision is still blurry but it isn't as bad as before. Hopefully it gets better on it's own. I was googling "castile soap in eye" and saw a few anecdotes about people getting chemical burns. Wtf is this poo poo?

My first home built PC was nearly 20 years ago and was an AMD Athlon 1.4. Over the last week I have completed my Magnum Opus. My greatest PC ever. I love it like one of my children if I had a children. But I had to dismount the graphics card from the cool vertical mount because it blocked every single loving expansion slot and I needed a place to plug in the wireless Vive card. I'm wondering if I got an E-ATX board if the extra length might provide enough room below the graphics card. That first PC was built into a Lian Li PC-60 and ever since I've had a case fetish. I thought my previous build in a Silverstone TJ-07 might be the pinnacle of PC towers but the Phanteks Enthoo Elite is loving insane and blows it out of the water. Which it should because it costs a fuckload more. vertical mount:  horizontal mount

Probably explains why it burns my balls and taint too. I didn't know what a castile soap is. I had no idea it could be used as a general cleaner. I've just always heard it was a body wash. I'd have read the label, but, well.

I've used that soap regularly for probably 35 years and I've gotten it in my eyes plenty of times and have never had that kind of reaction. I even use it for toothpaste and mouthwash when I go on extended backpacking trips. Granted, I don't remember ever having it squirt undiluted directly into my eye but I'm sure it isn't fun. What flavor was it? Peppermint? Lavender?

I just ordered a shower shelf. Right now I have my stuff sitting on the little tub edge along the wall and it doesn't fully hold it. Hopefully this won't happen again. After sleeping my eye feels 10x better. It's still red and burning a little but nowhere near as bad. I have to put an antibiotic gel in my eye every two hours for two weeks but whatever. I'd rather not have an infected eye.

I hate that you hurt your eye. Hope it gets better soon. We've been using homemade soap after making a bunch for a family science project when this pandemic began. Walmart sells 100% pure crystalized lye in the plumbing isle. That plus distilled water and light olive oil will make some completely odorless, really long lasting, bars of soap.
