what is everyone drinking now that alcohol has stopped being fun
a spreadsheet nobody asked for is my favourite genre of message in this entire archive
💀4
i made a spreadsheet nobody asked for, is there a channel for that or does it go here
for the archive somebody shared a spreadsheet, then somebody shared a better spreadsheet, and that is how this channel works
coming back after 11 months, whats the current in joke, i have lost track completely
does a cat knocking things over count as a cold chain incident
what do you tell visitors the little thermometer in the fridge is for
i miss coffee more than beer, and the coffee is still there, it just does not like me anymore
did anyone watch that last night or am i the only one still awake at this hour
how many people in here own a jewellery scale for entirely legitimate reasons
i checked the milk with the vial thermometer and now i am cross about the milk
right so cooking a curry i will eat a third of and enjoy every bite of. that is the deal now
not mcg again
raining here too. it has been raining here since approximately the founding of this channel
i own four thermometers and i can explain three of them
while im here the jewellery scale gets used for coffee beans more than anything else and it was still a good purchase

the sharps bin lives next to the kettle and visitors have opinions about it, someone check my working

36 degrees today, which is a weather problem and also a shipping problem, n of 1 obviously
the dog has learned the fridge sound and is furious every single week that it is not for him, from memory
*week 14 not week 2
sport went the way sport always goes, which is badly and late, your mileage will differ
the smugness is the prize. there has never been another prize
recipe that works in four bites: anything at all on a smaller plate. the plate is the recipe

for the archive is there a sharps bin that doesnt look like a sharps bin, my mother in law is visiting

somebody will correct the mcg thing before i finish typing this and honestly good
the fridge thermometer has become a personality trait and i am at peace with that
is anyone else oddly attached to their sharps bin
raining here too

*PeptideMeter not the other one

while im here my money is on nothing shipping and all of us still arguing about it in 2028
cat got onto the counter and took out a whole tray, anyone want to guess how many survived

the smugness is the prize
Batch lookup G-0641: 3 independent reports on file, earliest 2025-06-27.
check the milk
seven tabs
who is winning the bet and are they going to be insufferable about it
we absolutely counted the cat incident as a cold chain event and the pinned table has a footnote about it
i have the spreadsheet nobody asked for, it has seven tabs, and one of them is called cats
Batch lookup SG-1177: 3 independent reports on file, earliest 2025-10-10.

alcohol free lager has got genuinely good, which is the single most useful thing i have learned in here
how hot is it where everyone is, purely for shipping reasons obviously

the mcg thing has happened four times this year and somebody catches it inside ninety seconds every time
