Hi! A group of us are organizing a zine celebrating the 10th anniversary of the show. We've progressed a LOT and it's gonna have a ton of fics and art, plus some essays, but there are some gaps, and as the token member of the editors who has been on this sub for a LONG time, I wanted to reach out to this sub in particular to see if anyone's interested in helping out.

Specifically, we are looking for anyone who is a HUGE fan of one of these side characters: Ivan, Mylene, Nathaniel, Marc, Rose, Juleka, Max, or Kim. If you stan of one of these characters, I would love to talk to you about maybe having you write 300–500 words (basically one page) arguing why you love that character.

My friends, I am desperate to figure out how to replicate the Chilaquil "orange salsa" at home, and I'm hoping there's an employee here who knows how to make it. It is the best salsa I've ever had in my over forty years on God's green earth.

I don't live near the restaurant, so just going and getting this salsa isn't practical. I only ever have it when I'm near a Merit and can pick some up with a breakfast taco.

I don't know the real name. Everyone at Merit calls it "orange salsa." It's spicy, and I assume it's got a base of habaneros. When I look at the restaurant's menu, they list four salsas, and I know those salsas, and none of them are this. It's certainly not their salsa verde or sal

I've pulled a vacuum on a 2-zone minisplit system, single hose setup with a digital vacrometer at the king valve.

The pmp quickly evacuates down to around 200 microns. I close the valve on the pump hose and turn the pump off. The reading rises over a few minutes to 520 microns and then levels off to seemingly not move at all as I watch it. But I'll walk away and after thirty minutes, it's risen to 590 microns.

Is this acceptable for a new install, or does it need to hold indefinitely, like after an hour or two, read the same on the vacrometer?

If not acceptable, I need to push nitrogen into the system and look for a leak?

Thanks. I'm trying to decide if this is right and I proceed to rel

I've have been reading and reading, trying to understand the queue(s?) at the Tower.

There are all these companies offering tours that allow you to "skip the line," but the official Eiffel Tower website allows you to book entry for a specific time slot.

Are the tours a scam trying to make it seem like you can't get a timed entry without them, is this a holdover from a time when you couldn't buy times tickets online, or what? Is there some line you must wait in even if you buy an official website ticket that you do get to skip with one of these tours?

Thank you!

As the subject says, I'm trying to remember a podcast I listened to religiously, years ago, up until it was cancelled because the male co-host got accused of sexual harassment (or maybe even grooming underaged girls?). I just remember it being a scandal. I think this was pre-#metoo.

I remember it was a male and female co-host, and they had a really interesting chemistry where they would take shots at each other, insult each other (lovingly), and just seemed like a couple insanely knowledgeable buddies.

After it was cancelled, I think it went on hiatus for a while until the female cohost launched another podcast maybe?

I think the female cohost might have been a writer at Television With

Hi! I have a project to finish by end of February because I'm flying to another continent to, among other things, deliver it in person.

Every site that sells PVA warns that they can make no promises about it being not ruined when it arrives at my house due to PVA degrading in freezing temperatures.

I'm in South Texas. It basically never freezes! Any tips for sourcing PVA right now? Know of any sellers that ship from near the equator? :P

Thanks!

Hi all, so I used to drink keto chow with heavy whipped cream as the fat wayyy back in the day. Think 2015. But I had kids and cooked all our meals and wasn't gonna eat separately.

But fast forward many years, and the stress of many kids, being on the road all the time, etc. has left me feeling crap. I've come crawling back ;)

I remember how fit I used to get before I was performing in musicals, costumiers always had to take in my costumes right before opening night, and I had blood work done w/a physician before and after a two-month cycle of KC and my numbers improved so much.

HOWEVER, KC has changed as our wonderful creator grew the company. It used to be these cheap silvered baggies w

I'm writing a story involving a woman and a teenager, and the woman is talking to a friend of the teenager (another teenager) right now. Their relationship is one of colleagues despite the age difference (if it matters, I don't think it does).

The first teenager has just "scolded" the woman.

Other teenager: 这是你第一次被她骂吗? Woman: 不是

This is supposed to be the teenager joking *Is this the first time she's ever scolded you?" and the woman answers No.

Later on, in response to the teenager being stunned into silence, the teenager's friend jokes to the woman: 我以前从未见过她不说话。 This is supposed to be I have never seen her not talking before (although I would've liked something closer to *I have nev

Je m'excuse pour le français maladroite.

J'écris un roman. Une mère accompagne sa fille se faire masser. Je veux que les faits soient culturellement exacts.

En France, les mineurs se déshabillent-ils complètement pour les massages, ou portent-ils un maillot de bain ou autre? Dans mon roman, la mère remarque des bleus sur sa fille, et c'est au spa qu'elle les voit.

Je ne trouve pas de réponse en ligne car rechercher « naked French minor massage » n'est pas un bonne idée!

(Une amie espagnole a dit qu'ils garderaient leurs sous-vêtements, mais il est possible que la culture soit différente, je pense.)

Merci beaucoup!

I have two sisters from Shanghai (middle aged in the early 00s) who live in different Western countries. For reader purposes I want to add a little Shanghainese without the conversation being in the language.

I need a vibe check. I know enough Mandarin to get in trouble, so I was legit on a Mandarin -> Shanghainese dictionary, but I know that's not enough for what I'm doing. There's gonna be cultural stuff a dictionary doesn't explain.

This is my attempt. The English parts, I want to stay English, so I need to know only if the Shanghainese sounds right:

A: Ue? B: Hello, Me-me. C: Oh, Jiajia aa

That's it. Wei -> Ue, Meimei -> Meme, Jiejie -> Jiajia, and after reading a whole lingu
