That wind is still freaky. I live in a brick building -- I shouldn't be hearing the wind like this!
My chickpea tofu experiment is now cooling and will supposedly be ready to cut and eat by tomorrow morning.
Mal: Go on. Get in there. Give your brother a thrashing for messing up your plan. River: He takes so much looking after.

Just overheard at the bar
"Of all the assholes we worked with at that joint, Kelly was definitely the best asshole."
Also, they seem to think calling someone "brah" is some kind of smack at hippies. I think they do not know the word hipster.
Also - the Chilean peninsula, really?

Someone built an IGLOO (or a cave, really) about 3 doors down.
Still the best Christmas present ever (after the 100 subway tokens my Dad gave me the first year I lived in NYC).

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
NYC has snow melting machines.

Because books.
Cash, I think some of it goes into the rivers, iirc. Or what Tom said!

Ben builds an igloo every year! Just big enough for him to sit in, but still. Very cool.

Now tagless for your comfort.
I had no idea a snow melting machine existed. Neato.

Note to self: when cooking something that is supposed to solidify as it cools, wash out the pan while it's still warm.
I just tried a little bit of the chickpea tofu. It tastes kind of eggy, which I was not expecting.

Baltimore got a special environmental dispensation to dump snow in the harbor.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I feel like it just doesn't stay cold that long in NYC, usually, as well. Most of the time I lived there, it was slush, not snow, we were actually dealing with.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
To be fair, a lot of NYC's snow also just winds up in big piles on the sidewalk corners. Anything that falls on a street in Manhattan melts pretty quickly because of the subways running underneath 24/7 (keeping things warm), but sidewalk slush can stick around for a while.
