problem is, I don't drink alcohol, so when something is described as "peaty" I don't know if this means "peaty the way we've all decided Scotch tastes" or "literally smells like a bog"

I've been using flavor wheels to get a better sense of what I'm experiencing https://teamasters.org/itma-tea-aroma-wheel/

@alicegoldfuss ("mx claws") replied to a tweet by @alicegoldfuss:

my palate preferences are teas that naturally taste like honey and fruit, so puerh is a whole new category for me and I'm still learning how to discuss the flavor

@alicegoldfuss ("mx claws") replied to a tweet by @alicegoldfuss:

I tried Pin a few weeks ago and found the mineral taste/smell too much, so I opened Repave to see if airing it out would improve things

and it did!

My plan for a Corporate Minimum Tax will stop billion-dollar corporations from fooling around with loopholes in the tax code to get out of paying anything. They’ll have to pitch in—and we’ll use that money for child care, pre-k, fighting climate change, and more.

Democracy being hijacked by a concerted plan to subvert the integrity of the electoral process. But just more partisan “battles” and “crafting” of “election bills.” It’s so frustrating, and was so when many of us rang the alarm in 2013 & 2014.

@bcantrill @codinghorror I was pronouncing it EEniac in the mid-1960’s when I took an NSF summer course at Penn down the hall from where it was built. That’s how I heard it from people there.

Someone downloaded 80,000 Winamp skins and is now selling them as NFTs. The person has been reported, and it'll wind down, but I'll say again that this isn't some strange anomaly; this is the very nature of what NFTs are. Absorb everything you can modularize into the goo. Forever

Hilarious that they're still pretending this is about "indoctrination in schools" and not a fight about whether it's OK to teach children that racism is bad.
