as a universe balancing act, i'm gonna not post

i think that has to do with baby bottle tooth decay, instead of it being a warning about materials inherent in ikea's kitchen products themselves? i wonder if they use that exact boilerplate for every food-related product that's aimed at children

i think that rocks but also it's separate somehow? like, your problem is you have a good tea but with bad snacks, and you solve it by having better tea but still bad snacks? that analogy is kinda doomed from the beginning

some more stuff because i'm shadowboxing with a guy i made up in my head and losing:

i don't have any problems with beyonce doing country. i actually think the songs sound cool! please don't lump me in with the folks who are criticizing her for that. god knows there are actual, more profound criticisms of beyonce that could be had (s/o to oolong for sharing that article here a few back). though i guess that's not my place specifically to do that. so i'll stick to the more superficial stuff. hee.

if i was an anime fan i would say that ten is my "waifu". but i will not say that because i'm not an anime fan

sometimes i think about how 17776 is big on tumblr and how tumblr folks are completely going crazy over a sportswriter. always gets me really giddy

radical political position: all teas are valid

first thing i did was pour milk three times. i crylaughed and never really recovered
(i'm sleep-deprived too, that probably doesn't help)

i love this

i've never played a single minute of a halo

checking in: a cheap teabag (that i still think is nicest when drunk plain anyway), three teaspoons of powdered milk, sweetened with stevia, and a pinch of salt.

...maybe the salt lifted the drink up a bit? it's a sideways movement at worst. maybe using stevia for sweetener messes up the flavour profile? possibly. not really a big fan of regular sugar, though.

you could argue that by this point it's not even tea any more; it's just some abominable hot cocktail. i'd again argue that we're past that point when we added milk into it

But still, how can you call yourself a true tea-lover if you destroy the flavour of your tea by putting sugar in it? It would be equally reasonable to put in pepper or salt.

haven't checked yet, but just like how adding a little bit of salt into your chocolate drink works well, i think we could be onto something with a little bit of salt in your milk tea?

anyway, two can play that game: i don't think you should even add milk if your leaves are that good. are we tasting the tea or the milk here, hm

my personal tastes: i don't put sugar in tea, but occasionally some cheap tea that's a little bit too sweet is nice i think. it's difficult to get milk that's not flavoured/sweetened in my place anyway so any milk tea would be sweet by default, so no milk either. but when i do put milk in it, i make it a little bit too sweet, again. for some reason i can never get it "sweet enough", but "not sweet enough" is by far the worst thing for me.

what if i ask you to explain yourself. would you write a 1,500-word explainer on "craiglist jackoff necklace guy". what if i ask nicely

i don't drink coffee so i'm drinking milk in honor of you
