I’m at an Indonesian bazaar in San Francisco and they have an indomie eating contest. The prize is 6 boxes of Indomie. Can I be persuaded to join?

wilson,

@skinnylatte i wish i’m there to take pics of you with indomie

wilson, to random

it’s a chicken sandwich that screams california (it has kale and avocado, you know i’m right)

on airport food standards, i’m pretty happy with it

wilson,

@paris starbird chicken! they’re all over bay area now hahah

$14.50 at the SFO, which i think is $2 or so more expensive than other locations

easily wins alternative offers compared to other nearby stores

Things I’ve signed up to photograph (for fun) in the coming weeks: an Indonesian bazaar, a banquet for queer AAPI activists, an Indigenous canoe launch

San Francisco is better for me when I keep busy with people and film things.

wilson,

@skinnylatte indonesian bazaar??

LA food diary.

Some of you know I’m a big fan of LA food. I think that dollar for dollar you get a tremendous amount of cuisines, varieties of foods, in this melting pot which feels to me like it has far more immigrant and working class food than the Bay Area. Even the density and quality of ‘fancy food’ is high!

I’m keeping a record of my LA 2024 discoveries.

wilson,

@skinnylatte ah sorry should have given you the heads up on this one!

wilson,

@skinnylatte oh i miss hanbat so much

I want to pair with someone to try to understand how I can fix a few things on my site. Preferably with someone who knows more #11ty and #JS than I do. This might take an hour on a call. You don't have to turn video on.

In return, I'll curate a list of five recipes according to your food preferences. Or teach you something in photography or food!

wilson,

@skinnylatte if you want to bring your laptop on saturday, we can hack on it together!

i don’t know 11ty much, but might be able with some JS

This weekend, I hacked together a markdown documentation generator for Postgres in Go. It should be extensible to other databases, as well as including other properties from database.

It's called SQLDoc — please check it out!

After playing a couple of big PS5 and PC games I find myself a little burnt out on big AAA games. Some of them are very good but I am tired of endless questing and adventures. I just remembered how much I like small games (I especially like resource management sims) so am spending more time on my Switch. Kind of feel the same way, I think, towards restaurants, life and other hobbies.

wilson,

@skinnylatte if you want more resource management games @chrisyxlee has tons of those!

Filipinos have a strange custom of putting water around a bottle of peanut butter to keep the ants away. I wonder, do other Southeast Asians do this? 😊

wilson,

@jikodesu my parents do it for condensed milk! #indonesia

Re SOFA (start often, fuck achievements)

I’m having a lot of fun starting even more things!

I just started a 6 weekend typography class. I am the only not-designer person. I will probably not be ‘good’ at it but that’s okay. I wanted to take my first ever design-adjacent class!

I also just started a swimming class. I have a deep fear of swimming due to some childhood incidents, even though I really loved it before that. Swimming without expectations feels freeing

wilson,

@skinnylatte i’d love to hear about your typography class sometime because i might want to do it too!

Without knowing about this movement, I’ve unwittingly become a part of it.

@skinnylatte especially relatable:

wilson,

@skinnylatte typography class as in... fonts? that sounds interesting!

My mission this year is to buy pants that won’t break or have holes. I don’t understand what I’m doing that all my pants have holes. I do Asian squat a lot, but I think it might just be that I haven’t been paying attention to quality of materials and things like that.

I don’t ’like clothes’. Very apathetic to fashion. But I know I am morally opposed to fast fashion. So I’d really like to get something that lasts.

Is workwear the sort of thing I should be looking at? Like Carhartt or Duluth?

wilson,

@skinnylatte @chiraag if you have the patience, sometimes good deals can pop up on wornwear.com for patagonia items with varying condition. they’re pretty good about describing the blemishes so you’d know what you’re buying!

As an #ActuallyAutistic person, I had many difficulties with #food when I was younger. Many vegetables were extremely difficult for me, because of sensory issues.

Somehow I ended up writing about food, for a job (in the past). It became a special interest. With repeated exposure to things I don’t love. I have learned ways to turn them into things I love.

I never loved salads, but I realize (1) I don’t like salads other people make (2) if I make my own, I can decide what goes in it.

wilson,

@skinnylatte …oh shit i’m the same!! i never liked scallions until i ate them in korean food

wilson, to rust

trying out #rust again — is there ever a scenario where self is desired in function parameter, as opposed to &self?

This is the best frozen har gow. It tastes better than many lower end takeout dimsum spots in San Francisco. Just steam or microwave it yourself at home.

I know this because I’ve eaten many bad frozen har gows before finding this one!

The main culinary highlight of moving to this side of the world is how much good tacos, tamales, and pupusas I get to eat

wilson,

@skinnylatte during my most recent long trip to asia, the thing i looked forward so much from the end of my trip was burritos / tacos
