from the first 70 pages of âwhiskey words & a shovelâ by r.h. Sin
 â youâre so used to being mistreated. âÂ
â youâve gotten so used to being hurt that happiness scares you. âÂ
â who robbed you of innocence? âÂ
â who was your first? âÂ
â and the saddest part of all? youâll cling to the good memories, as if there were any. âÂ
â the pain will always be there. âÂ
â so many people are setting the bar really low. âÂ
â you get what you allow. â
â i was never what you wanted. âÂ
â i was just the one you settled for. âÂ
â youâre an experience. âÂ
â meet me here. âÂ
â you were never the one. âÂ
â this was never love. âÂ
â you were simply necessary. âÂ
â i had to be hurt by you. âÂ
â i hope you find what youâre looking for. âÂ
â i hope you find the truth. âÂ
â and thatâs how they control you. âÂ
â our version of living feels more like death. âÂ
â i understand you. âÂ
â i was forced to survive in your absence. âÂ
â i was faced with the realization that I never needed you. âÂ
â youâre always apologizing. âÂ
â one day Iâll stop listening. âÂ
â we grew apart.âÂ
â we stopped trying. âÂ
â iâm trying to get better. âÂ
â iâm trying to get better at walking away from unhealthy situations. âÂ
â i struggle with the idea of anyone loving me unconditionally. âÂ
â sometimes I wish you waited for me. âÂ
â i got tired of going through the same shit with different people. âÂ
â itâs not your fucking fault. âÂ
â you canât change a man. âÂ
â the thought of being in love is blinding. âÂ
â bargaining using sex. either way you get screwed. âÂ
â the memories hurt the most. âÂ
â sometimes i get tired of thinking about the things that i donât want to think about. âÂ
â sometimes i get so fucking tired. âÂ
â tonight, youâll be the death of me. â

cannot believe people actually buy rice makers when regular rice itself is stupidly easy to make
no, white nonsense is people paying over $50 for an appliance that can only do one (1) task
rice cooker doesn't just make rice; it can make extra thicc pancakes too.
ok I understand rice cookers even less now!!
You can steam veggies too
Grew up in half Japanese household. Have rice maker.
Dated Korean girl. Had rice maker.
Care to explain how this is a white thing?
Its a yank thing
Man sure is nice to have a versitile cooking component to do soft omlets, steamed vegetables, unleavened breads, sauces and of course rice in.
Wait it's a white thing now even though it came from Japan and most Asian households own one because it's convienant?
So I don't want to get into that. It's kinda narrow visioned to think something can only do one thing. But the history of the development of the rice cooker is super interesting and marked by many many failures. It also is about science, invention and trial and error.
The gist of it is in 1937 the Imperial Japanese Army had the first electric rice cooker which was really just a box with a heating coil under it. It worked but was not great. In 1945 Mitsubishi made the first commercial rice cooker but again it was as pot with a heating coil and required constant monitoring or the rice would burn. There had to be a better way.
In 1956 Yoshitada Minami working with Toshiba made the first true set and forget rice cooker. It required hundreds of hours of experementation in all weather to work it out. His wife was pivitol in the development. At first he had the idea to do a bimetal thermostat switch meaning that as the water boiled off and was absorbed the temp in the pot rose and when it hit a certain point a piece of temp sensitive metal would bend away just enough cutting the flow of power. However the metal was very suceptable to hot and cold weather. The solution was to encase it in it's own pot shield and thus the true rice cooker was born. Now you could simply add water and rice, turn it on and when it was done cooking it'd turn itself off.
That lead to a massive development boost in automated cooking technology in both the commercial and private sector for a million different applications.
Back to the practical application of a rice cooker though. It may sound like it only does one thing but it's an electric pot that won't go above a certain temp. You can make pizza, bread, pasta, cake, soup, yogurt, potatoes and cook fish and meat dishes too.
Now, that's all I got to say about em.
bruh just use a pot of hot water
But that can boil over because it doesn't regulate its own temperature
The one I have turns off when the rice is cooked and switches to a warming mode so you can focus on the main meal
You can also make egg fried rice in it
â... white nonsense ....â
Whut.
â... appliance that can only do one (1) task â
If only there was a group of people who typically did that task everyday.
I went to a school that was over 50% Asian students and almost every dorm had a rice maker wtf r u on about op
The sheer ridiculousness of this entire post to me is the fact that no one has yet pointed out why Asians even have rice cookers.
Cooking rice is not "stupidly easy". Yes, it is doable, but it's not that easy for something that has to be done consistently everyday. For the record, cooking rice on the stove involve boiling cleaned rice on high heat, then covering the pot and lowering the heat to low until the rice is done. And just because the water has dried up doesn't mean the rice is doneâyou cook it with steam a bit more, which I'm sure most if not all cultures in Asia has a term for. There are also things you should not do if you don't know what you're doing: do not open the pot, do not release the steam, do not mix the rice, etc.
This is why a rice cooker is one of the first appliance purchases for Asian households. It's cheap and it frees you up to cook the rest of your meal without having to watch the rice. It's not about multiple functions. It has ONE function, but it's a pretty important function for a culture that requires something done right everyday.
yeah cooking rice on the stove is a skill that even once you're good at it remains an active task the whole time you're doing it. i CAN do it but i'm sure as hell not going to when i could push a button and forget about it for 20 minutes and have it come out way softer than a pot without a pressure seal could hope for
This is such a weird take that Iâm kind of wondering if OP closed their eyes in a department store, turned around in a circle, and pointed randomly to determine what they were going to mock as âwhite nonsenseâ today.Â
(Rice cookers are great.)Â
Send âđâ for a random yet completely useless headcanon I have
Gentle reminder that the human eye is naturally drawn by noise and movement, so the next time you walk into a crowd or a bit late into a lecture or something like that, theyâre not staring at you or judging; itâs just an instinctive reaction that has nothing to do with you doing anything wrong.
This really helps my anxiety.
Itâs literally a threat assessment/food gathering instinct. The steps your brain is doing, subconsciously.Â
-Check to see if movement is lion in grass.
-Also check to see if possible game animal and edible.Â
-No itâs just Dave getting into lecture hall a few minutes late.Â
-Thatâs boring.Â
-Lose interest.Â
