I just finished watching "Galavant", which means I wasted six years of my life not watching this musical two-minute nugget of perfection youtu.be/4iCzOllSjLU
Has anyone else made these honey pistachio mooncakes (epicurious.com/recipes/food/…)? It says the dough is for 12 pieces, but it makes enough for at least 24. It seems like such a big error though that I've been questioning if I know how to do math (I..I think I do?).
Few things make me laugh as much as the AI Weirdness newsletter. Feast your eyeballs til they puke on these AI-generated food trucks janellecshane.substack.com/p…

三毛 (Sanmao) getting an English translation = I AM EXCITE. A few years ago, my mom gave me a copy of 撒哈拉歲月 ("Stories of the Sahara") after telling me about Sanmao's greatness. I proceeded to "read" one page (aka I used Pleco to look up every character) before I gave up.
