20:21 <Thelema5> So cookies next

20:23 <Fluttershy> Hello everypony!

20:23 <Thelema5> Hi there!

20:24 <Thelema5> Hmm, this soup is actually rather tasty. It has some sort of aromatic spice in it that I'm not familiar with

20:25 <Schism> Oh, vegetable soup with pasta... that sounds familiar.

20:26 <Schism> Black and sour soup?

20:26 <Thelema5> The one on the right https://www.aldi.us/en/grocery-goods/new-at-aldi/new-at-aldi-detail/ps/p/deutsche-kuche-german-soup-assorted-varieties/

20:27 <Schism> Oh, nice.  That does look more western European, but still, tasty.  Though I'd be more interested in the one on the left, which seems a thick stew.

20:28 <Thelema5> agreed.  I'll have to look for it next time

20:28 <Schism> I don't know if it's sold anywhere south of the border, but look into Habitant soups.  They have an exceptional pea soup.

20:30 <Thelema5> Here it's sold as "Canadian Pea Soup"

20:31 <Schism> Which is not wrong, but not entirely accurate.  Still, it's tasty stuff.

20:32 <Thelema5> Sadly, looks like it's made with lard- so it's off my menu

20:32 <Schism> Oh... crud.  Yeah, it also has pork bits in.

20:34 <Schism> I think the most ridiculous thing is ice cream.

20:35 <Schism> Thelema5: When so many products contain gelatin, made from stomach lining, nothing surprises me anymore.

20:35 <Schism> And bones.

20:35 <Ali> Or enough salt to stun a yak

20:35 <Thelema5> Yeah

20:36 <Schism> Wait, no.  Stomach lining is used for other things.

20:36 <Thelema5> Rennet for some cheeses

20:36 <Schism> That's the one.  Though at least in that case, a small amount goes a long way.

20:36 <Thelema5> Most US cheeses have moved over to microbial enzymes instead- it's cheaper.

20:37 <Schism> Yeah, so it makes sense.  Not that the US doesn't have its own set of cheese problems.

20:37 <Schism> Specifically, there's /too much cheese./

20:38 <Thelema5> Ah ha ha

20:38 <Schism> No, I'm serious.

20:38 <Thelema5> I know it

20:38 <Schism> It's the stupidest problem ever.

20:38 <Thelema5> Gotta subsidize dairy farmers somehow, I guess

20:39 <Schism> There are ways and ways, though.

20:39 <Thelema5> (subsidies are dumb, though)

20:39 <Schism> And yeah, US dairy farmers are subsidized to such an extent that Canadian dairy farmers are threatened.

20:40 <Schism> But the fact that the US has a cheese reserve is just silly.

20:41 <Ali> Welcome to America, you think you do it well?  We do it better and overkill it.

20:41 * Ali adds more salt

20:41 <Thelema5> At least we'll have a good source of protein and fats to feed the new conscription armies during WWIII

20:41 <Schism> Oh, I'm not throwing stones at glass houses here.  We have a strategic maple syrup reserve.

20:42 <Thelema5> Armies march with their stomachs, after all

20:42 <Schism> Swear to Eris, it's literally named that.

20:43 <Schism> Ali: You folks in the US think you overkill?  We do it, and we do it with style.

20:43 <Thelema5> We have a strategic apple reserve; each year's crops are placed into cold storage under nitrogen, and not sold until the next harvest. The apples we get in most markets are at least a year old.

20:44 <Thelema5> Unless it's a small, local orchard

20:46 <Thelema5> It's good to have a reserve like that on major exports in case of a failed crop

20:46 <Schism> Wait, wait wait.  So we're actually having an /ecological/ contest of this nature.

20:46 <Schism> Which I can't call out for what it is because this channel is PG-13.

20:47 <Thelema5> Curious

20:47 <Schism> Fun, tho.

20:48 <Schism> I dunno, though.  Unless I bring up local groups like St. Jacobs, you probably win for now, Thelema5.

20:48 <Schism> I mean, we have strawberry-picking fields... :P

20:50 <Thelema5> Farm markets are a different animal, though... I'm thinking more in terms of industrial scale production

20:51 <Thelema5> DashedRainbows, how's your recovery going? You're home now, right?

20:52 <Schism> You may be mildly amused by the fact that the St. Jacobs farmer's market lets you pet the animals.  No sausage machines are in evidence.

20:52 <Thelema5> Heh

20:52 <Schism> Lots of sausages are, though.

20:53 <Schism> Sorry, that's a horrible thing to be amused by.  XD

20:53 <Thelema5> Looks like a super-popular place, nearly 5000 ratings on google

20:53 <Schism> Oh, totally.  It's a staple of the city.

20:54 * Thelema5 is a google local guide so always checks ratings and reviews

20:55 <Schism> When you invariably find yourself here, you simply must visit.  They also have the best apple fritters, ever.

20:56 <Thelema5> Will ad it to my bucket list

20:56 <Thelema5> *add

20:57 <Thelema5> I'm still working on overcoming my agoraphobia, but I'm making great progress and I hope to travel more in the future

20:57 <Schism> Every step is worthwhile.

21:00 <Thelema5> Yep! I managed to travel  nearly 60 miles and cross a major bridge to make it to my mother-in-law's for Christmas

21:01 <Thelema5> (Bridges are a major obstacle for me)

21:01 <Thelema5> Thank you, drugs!

21:04 <Schism> ...

21:04 <Schism> Um...

21:04 <Schism> Good that you got there, but... why did you go to such an extent?

21:04 <Thelema5> ... prescribed medications

21:05 <Thelema5> XD

21:05 <Schism> How was obvious, I meant /why/.

21:06 <Schism> Though... I guess that works as an explanation, but I can't imagine that you'd subject yourself to that just because of drugs.

21:07 <Thelema5> By "drugs" I mean an SSRI and a seditive my doctor has prescribed to help me get past my anxiety disorders

21:07 <Thelema5> Why: because I could barely leave my home beefore

21:08 <Schism> Being by your SO probably also gave you some measure of strength...

21:09 <Schism> But I was also wondering why you subjected yourself to that.

21:09 <Thelema5> Yes, having a companion is a super important component of getting out for people with agoraphobia.

21:09 *** Joins: Reia (Reia_Hope@TheCowPony)

21:09 <Schism> That's like leaving a calm pond and immediately leaping into a volatile ocean.

21:10 <Thelema5> Yah

21:10 <Schism> I mean, great that you did so, but I'd be too terrified to leave anything like a good impression.

21:12 <Schism> I'm not knocking you for doing so, just... that's nothing I'd ever even imagine doing.

21:12 <Thelema5> Nah, it's like any other medication. Doesn't affect my state of mind or lucidity- just turns down the volume of the anxiety

21:13 <Schism> I'm not talking about the meds, man!  I mean that I would be flipping right the crap OUT.

21:13 <Thelema5> Oh, hmm

21:15 <Schism> On the other hand, you remained stable enough, it sounds like, so good.

21:16 <Thelema5> :p

21:16 * Schism gets a call from his mother, asking about cashews. Nods, finds them, and carefully tucks them away so that he doesn't roast them with honey and devour them.

21:16 <Thelema5> Hmmmm

21:17 <Thelema5> Cashews are amazing.

21:17 <Schism> They are.

21:17 <Schism> I did pick up a bag of cranberry cashew trail mix for myself, so I shouldn't be too tempted.

21:18 <Schism> Also including pumpkin seeds.  o3o

21:18 <Thelema5> Cranberries are amazing, too

21:19 <Schism> The worst thing about cashews is that they're probably the most ecologically irresponsible nut in existence.

21:20 <Thelema5> Yeah, but the fruit that they come off of are eaten locally I think

21:20 <Schism> Not sure about that; it's terribly poisonous.

21:20 <Thelema5> Hmm, I know the covering of the "nut" is, I'll have to look into the fruit

21:21 <Schism> If I recall correctly, anyway...

21:21 <Thelema5> The nut covering has urishol oil, I think, same stuff as poison ivy

21:21 *** Joins: MiLLiYetchi (FaRiD@Pony-r5f.e52.76.40.IP)

21:22 <Schism> What gets me is that there are a lot of similar tree nuts, with similar coatings.  Cashews are an odd duck when you consider the majority.

21:23 <Schism> Pine nuts are of course harvested, but what makes cashews particularly unique?

21:24 <Thelema5> They're a member of the Sumac family? I don't know, but poison sumac also produces urishol

21:24 <Schism> Hmm.  Well, potatoes are a nightshade.

21:24 <Thelema5> Also tomatos and peppers

21:25 <Schism> Yeah.  Hrm.

21:25 <Thelema5> Evolution is weird

21:25 <Schism> And humans have been poking at it for millennia.

21:28 <Schism> We're terribly weird, Thelema5.

21:28 <Thelema5> XD

21:30 <Schism> Darnit.

21:30 <Schism> The knowledge that there are cashews in the apartment makes me want to eat them.

21:32 <Thelema5> I'll happily remove them to reduce the temptation

23:44 <PinkieShy> O.o

23:44 <PinkieShy> What's that.

23:44 <Schism> It's an old RPG about time travel.

23:45 <Schism> Very good, by all regards.  By modern standards, there are a few points which could be sanded off, but it still holds up extremely well.

23:47 *** Joins: Reia (Reia_Hope@TheCowPony)

23:48 <Schism> PinkieShy: It would be absolutely wrong of me to say that I would send you a copy of Chrono Trigger so that you could give it a try for yourself.

23:48 <Schism> I am an upstanding and forthright person and therefore would never partake in such shenanigans.

23:48 <SunsetShimmer> of course

23:48 <SunsetShimmer> we know you're 100% the most legit of legit

23:48 <Schism> Especially since Square-Enix has no intention of ever releasing it in a reasonable fashion.

23:49 <SunsetShimmer> Square have always been a weird bunch

23:49 <ADragonDreaming> It would be even more wrong to say that you assist with the acquisition of software that would allow for the game to be run on a personal computer.

23:49 <Schism> Enix have, too.

23:50 <Schism> Adra: But of course.  Nothing of the sort is going on here at all.  (Though emulators are perfectly legal even by the most esoteric standards.)

23:52 <Schism> PinkieShy: So there is no possible way that I would ever provide you with, nor would you ever be interested in, the code for one of the finest jRPGs ever to exist.

23:52 <Schism> That would be wrong.
