I cracked open my and OMG volcanic CO2, again. Drat!

I think I'll have to break a rule and burp the bottle as it ferments, because the pour was literally all head.

Not a bad flavor though. Light, but with a backdoor bite. This is the first pour that actually tasted like a traditional beer.

@kara_dreamer yes, that's my guess too. Seems a lot of clickbait artists start out sensible but then get too much money going yellow :-(

So I'm researching the clickbait phenomenon and I see a journalist who wrote respectable pieces in e.g. Dallas Morning News, but now edits a screaming-bloody-murder webzine that puts out "Ghetto Michelle Obama" bilge. Makes me sad.

How to Find a Radical

Search on Google using this WordPress-capturing pattern:

"/category/{topic}/page/{howradical}"

(don't forget the quote marks!)

where {topic} is a category word like "dogs" or "politics", and {howradical} is a number from 1 to about 300, gauging enthusiasm towards the topic (50 seems enough IMO).

Example:

google.com/#q=%22/category/cat

It tends to find out-of-mainstream sites with, uh, let's say... "exuberant" content.

@Ari Heh, no, sorry for the misleading toot! I just finished Madoka, and I can't decide what to think of it yet.

@MightyBigCar welll, I had to sprinkle it with some lemon juice if ya know what I'm saying. I think I fermented it too long and it got bitter. ๐Ÿคท it was a burp factory too lol

@XavierJulep Wow, yes, that would be amazing!

@MarkSilverMedia@mastodon.rocks Thank you very much for the info. If it's fixable, it's promising to me! I haven't quite got linux JACK to not destroy my takes yet ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

@MarkSilverMedia@mastodon.rocks I'm Jealous! How does the audio perform on it? I've had trouble with linux & DAW on my laptop (Ardour/Jack or even simple Audacity), and am curious if Antergos + System76 might work...

I need some help. I pulled an upright Seven of swords but the reverse message applied to my situation more. Do I go with it or do I listen to the uprights message.
