Today sucked for pain but I saw a skink in my house. Which was interesting. I’m glad Melbcat didn’t see it because even at her age she is a fantastic hunter.
No idea how it got in. Considered catching/shooing him out to avoid brutal murder by cat, but didn’t want to traumatise him or make him drop his tail. So I didn’t get any closer. Hoping he finds his way safely out.
Watching Terms of Endearment because it's supposedly famously melodramatic. Why is everyone in this movie so horrible/creepy. John Lithgow has such an innocent and smooth face though
E: how was this such a popular movie, so much schlock. I hate almost everyone in this. So manipulative! What a sign of changed morals...
Early night tonight. Goodnight everyone ❤️
see you tmr
I had this plunger thing I bought from Daiso that was great for making scrambled eggs. The MIL managed to break it and she couldn't find another one at Daiso recently.
It was already a cheap plastic French press, so I'll see if I can find an actual French press and replace it with that
This sounds ridiculously cute and now im on a mission
This is what it looks like. There are two discs at the bottom full of holes that mash and aerate the egg. It did a good job

I find the idea of using a plunger to scramble eggs way more repulsive than I should
It sounds odd using a French press. The cup from Daiso is this cute plastic thing with a little chicken on top of the plunger.
But damn, it scrambles the eggs well and is easy to clean
So does a fork.
A fork in a glass works well too, but I found my little plastic plunger to be a bit more consistent
I don't even pre-scramble anymore, just bust em up in the pan 🤷♂️
I second this method.
for whatever reason the south bank five guys didnt quite taste like five guys the two times i went
this QV one though, it is perfection
Some guys taste different. Nobody can explain it.
sth to do with bananas or is it ananas

Why thank you. My very first LemmyGold.
Uni meeting didn't go as badly as i thought, but I've been feeling really out of it and congested most of the rest of the day. Brain really has taken a battering after the past few days and there's no rest in sight as I've got a major job ahead with cleaning up the house for inspection next week, and also starting to line up rental inspections myself (fuck that noise majorly, but I got no choice).
It's a real effort to try and relax and not constantly feel like I should be doing something
