  • It’s definitely not for everyone, but the only thing stopping me from making a mac and cheese sandwich is shame.

    I will say, most of the mac and cheese pizzas I’ve had were more enjoyable(for me) than good and the texture is the reason. To do it well, you basically just need a good thick cheese sauce that coats the noodles well enough to insulate them from getting simultaneously soggy and burnt, but the best sauce for that is not the best sauce for standard mac and cheese








  • Darning socks and replacing buttons/zippers are absolutely cost effective unless you’re making money money. Depending on the size/shape/location of tears in other pieces of clothing it might be, but it takes approximately one minute to sew a button back on and once you get the hang of it, under ten for socks or a zipper, working without a sewing machine.

    Sewing your own clothing is a totally different ballgame. There you need patterns or significant planning time, and fabric is not exactly cheap. I’m sure people still do it by hand, but that’s hella time consuming and much more difficult than with a machine, which is also an investment (though you can often find them second hand at very affordable prices).




  • It does look weirdly ai though. I’m not saying it’s fake, because frankly, I don’t think there’s an ai yet that can create that much sensible text, and the details on his hand and arm are true to life (based on that thumbnail, he should probably take a multivitamin).

    Anyone know what’s so off-looking about the handwriting though? I figure it’s a weird angle and that’s why the text fades towards the right side of the page, but it’s a very strange picture all around. Maybe things just get funky when you take pictures at that level of zoom.
