*Not* a hugging sort (and the pandemic has kind of forced me to double down on it).
That being said, positive energy and hope for everyone, even with it feeling dark and grim right now.

Hugs are a staple of Freeholdian economy, particularly in a bear market.

On another note, I just want to briefly vent in a place where I don't get debated by transphobes.A thing that really sucks about stuff like the current paizo controversy is that every time it happens, us trans people have to deal with all of the s%*#ty people coming out of the woodwork to debate our existence. It's so exhausting that we can't even call out transphobia without having to also argue with people about whether we exist or not.
Well, that's my vent. Love and hugs, especially to anyone else feeling drained and frustrated by this stuff.
Yeah, honestly, I don't want to say it in the other threads, but I'm almost as frustrated with the community as the company right now. For some reason, the small cluster of Devil's Advocates is really bugging me.
Sending hugs and/or fresh banana bread everyone's way. <3

One of the loaves has chocolate chips, though, if you're into decadence. ^-^

I know right? People insist on ruining so many nice things by hiding raisins in them. Raisins are sneaky betrayal fruit.

This is one of many reasons why I take a strong stance against the "QUEER" term (Questioning, Unsexual, Estrogenhater, Estrogentaker, Raisinlover). I can't believe some groups try to sneak in under the umbrella like that.

In Borderlands 2 the character Tiny Tina sends you to destroy all the cookie vending machines after she accidently finds out they're all raisins and not chocolate chips.

If one is expecting chocolate chips and gets raisins, that's horrible.
If one is expecting raisins in their candy bar and they get some rando fruit that's nothing like raisins that's even worse, imo.

That second one is also somehow the fault of the raisins though. Everything is the fault of the raisins.
Also, anyone who is expecting raisins in something and then willingly eats that thing has serious issues.

I've been having fun with this recipe, which is honestly fantastic. I normally don't much care for banana bread, but this stuff is worth all the bananas I buy for my girlfriend for her to forget to eat.

It lost me at sour cream but it still looks tasty.

Sour cream is just a cheat code for superior baked goods.
My second foods teacher in High School (who was also the American football coach) taught us that cooking superior baked goods doesn't require a lot of 'cheat codes' but 'attention to detail', 'paying attention', and 'lots of practice'.
I guess I don't know much, then.

Well, its fun, but its kind of the opposite of calming? I have a natural talent for making really good and interesting collage art, but the process is mostly me suffering and hating collage for the entire day, then somehow something really good comes out the end and then it was all worth it.
It's good for my mental health though.

Anyone have pets? I have two cats (their names are Smudge and Saucepan). Smudge is the sweetest most perfect cat, and Saucepan is the worst.

Two cats - Derek and Ietsie (pronounced “itsy”).
Ietsie doesn’t think much of me. Derek thinks I’m the best. Pads around the house following me like a hound. <3

Ferris Mewller, my girlfriend's cat, a big tuxedo kitten who's very bad at boundaries but who'll let you pick him up and cradle him like a baby. He's not a cuddler, but he'll nestle between Ash and I when we're sitting together. He likes to hunt flies, spiders and my feet.
Princess Meatball, sometimes called "Rat Princess", is our roommate's cat. He's an absolute cuddlebug, but hates being picked up and will claw to kill if he's not in the mood or you pick him up clumsily. He's very small and we found him recently as a stray - not yet neutered, but the vets are backed up, so we're hoping he can hold off from spraying until November. He and Ferris get along great, for the most part, except when Princess steals Ferris's hammock or Ferris corners Princess because, y'know, boundaries. Capturing Meatball was a whole terrible ordeal involving a yellowjacket nest, me losing my glasses, and a few scratches that still haven't fully healed.
GLaDOS is my own very most loved fluffball. She's living with my folks right now, because this small apartment wouldn't be enough for her even without the two cats already living here. She's wriggly, but never claws or bites seriously, and adores getting attention as long as she doesn't have to cuddle for it. I miss her terribly. Here's a picture, just so you know that she's the best.
When I get out of this apartment, I'm also determined to get chickens again.

I'm renting a room in my friend's house. I'm not allowed to have pets. Their cat, Loki has made it clear that he will not tolerate anyone except us monkeys. I do mean tolerate. He puts up with us in his home.
I do visit another friend at least once a week and she has 2 cats, 2 bearded dragons, and 3 snakes (2 ball pythons and 1 corn snake). The cats and the beardies get along great. One of the cats and the snakes get alone wonderfully, but one cat wants to smack the snakes so we have to pay attention to him when the snakes are out.
The beardies and the cats actually play with each other. I've watched them chase each other down the hall.

My partner’s cat, Jinx, has been having some tummy and appetite issues this past week. He’s young and healthy, so I’m not too worried yet, but I’d love any good vibes folks can send his way?

Aw, sending all possible benevolent energies his way! And since his name is Jinx, might I add: "Pfft, what's the best that could happen?"

I would like to invite everyone to the beach in NYC on Sunday. It is going to be sunny, warm, nice waves, and a gentle breeze.
The eastern-most end of Jacob Riis Park is the LGBT area, and also an area where people play club/disco music, and show lots of skin. When I was there earlier this week, an impromptu dance to the Cha Cha Slide broke out among over a dozen people in various states of (un)dress. It is basically like the super cool, 100% inclusive party that never existed in the suburbs, but now happens every nice day. But this weekend should be extra special!
I'll probably ride my bike from Grand Central around 11am, and get to the beach around 2. If anyone would like to join me, or meet up there, post here or pm me. Or just show up! It really is amazing!
EDIT: You can drive, ride, take the subway, or a ferry from Manhattan or Brooklyn. There might be a parking fee (I don't know) but the beach is free in every sense of the word!
