Yeah… I pay attention to UK politics mostly to avoid hyper focusing on depressing domestic politics, and it’s devastating to see Labor shit the bed the way they have.
Like, you guys are supposed to be better than us (it’s a low bar)! But they squandered their mandate in the most perverse and infuriating way. I’m sorry. Shit sucks.
Anyway, that’s my half-assed perspective from listening to Pod Save the UK, the Bugle, and reading the occasional article.
I had never heard of cookie clicker, assumed it was some youtube personality, and was vaguely annoyed at the implication that this imaginary person was somehow responsible for popularizing regular-ass chocolate chip cookies. Having investigated, I’m mystified by how such a “game” accrued any kind of success. I guess I’m flummoxed by the concept of idle games in general. May as well just watch a screensaver.
Anyhow, cookies are great, and easy to make! I like to use parchment paper for mine, but I used to have a silicone baking mat which also worked well. Neither are really necessary, though—just a humble cookie sheet is all you need.
