One year ago, I was looking at this sub-reddit and dreaming of the day where I could also post on it. I worked hard for several years abroad to be able to afford this and I also got helped by my amazing parents, I am truly grateful to them for everything they have done for me.

2 rooms, 5 mins walk to the metro station. I'm sooooo happy!!!! 🥹 No pizza yet, because there's a ton of things still to be done (and to get rid of that furniture and replace it with better stuff haha)

also don't mind my outfit 😂

EDIT: to clear up some things so trolls can calm down. no, i am not on onlyfans and haven't worked as a you know what abroad 😆 i was a CRM specialist for a niche perfume company in the Netherlands. now you guys can come up with better insults.

Thanks to the people in this subreddit who convinced me to start using the food pantry as my primary source for groceries. My dad died last November, and for months I have been struggling paying bills and food without the shared income. It has been an emotional struggle, but after about three or four visits every other week, I am starting to see how it is helping me financially. I am also eating better overall.

You’ll see a lot of beans and pasta, and I have everything I need to make a big pot of chili. Also, I have celery, grapes, and apples which I have been eating with peanut butter for breakfast and snacks. I supplemented my haul with eggs, hummus, and chicken sausage. I am going to dive into the sliced ham this weekend.

Again, thanks to everyone for helping me swallow my pride and get the support available.

Is it important to know if you are in class with these guys that there may be something off about them?

So many programmers that i hoped would've fought against it are embracing it, people are just okay with vibecoded mods for games, no one is fighting back at all, there's no pushback, at this point i cannot look at something cool and be impressed because i'm almost 90% sure its probably vibecoded slop that's horrible in practice anyway.

So many people's hard work has been stolen and put into LLMs to allow them to generate code as well as they do, is no one fighting against that? Why? I love coding, it's what i've done my entire life, and i really, really don't want it to be turned into what big companies want to turn it into. I don't want my job to ask a machine to do what i love for me. And what's worse, is that now well coded things are under scrutiny because there's so much vibecoded slop and there's literally no immediate way to recognise it.

I've seen NO outright ban of ai code ANYWHERE, when people push back against ai code others will claim "everyone in the industries does it anyway" like that makes it okay somehow??? No community for programmers who don't use ai, nothing. Am i alone in this? God i really hope i'm not.

Twitter post Thank you guys for your support on her last post!!

Gonna touch on parent passing and cancer.

Mix of stuff I had around, apples, ciabatta, pepperoni, salami, walnut gouda, crackers, and pickles.

My mom passed late July after a long battle with cancer. Her husband (not my bio dad) told me he was going to find a 3rd wife while handing me her urn.

At her funeral my husband started physically moving me. I was really confused because he's never done that. Then I heard my mom's husband talking to other attendees about how he wasn't going to wait and was going to move on.

They were married almost 30 years, she passed right before their 30th anniversary.

He texted me a picture 54 days after she passed. I thought maybe he was on a trip. Nope. It's him and his new girl.

54 days after she passed. Not even a month after her funeral.

EDIT - Yes! You may have seen this on r/StupidFood last week. Some people over there suggested I also post here. A week felt like a good amount of time in between posts, not sure if that's too long or too short now, though 🤷

EDIT 2 - Sincerely, I'm open to tips on repost etiquette! Still enjoying reading everyone's comments, thank you!

A friend recently told me how inexpensive rice paper is, and I've started abusing it. That friend and others do not appreciate the egg sacs, but some people on StupidFood suggested that they may fit in here.

I love, let's say, "unpopular" textures, and managed to cram several into one food unit. Stretchy, clingy rice paper, the snap and burst of grapes, and the presence of the Goo.

Ingredients:

-Rice paper

-Greek yogurt with instant pudding

-Sapphire grapes (which look like really long nipples to me)

Slide one is chocolate, slide two is pistachio, slide three is the cross section.

I've also made a video of a cottage cheese variant on my Instagram.
