When you carry it around, do you carry it fold up or fold down? Or carry it flat? If so, West Coast up or east coast up?

A miasma of post-Doritos farts, ass sweat, and uncleaned litter box.

The feeling of the spray hitting your skin will be akin to feeling piss aerosols/drops hit your leg when wearing shorts and using one of those urinals that extend to the floor.

I haven't set an alarm for work in like 10+ years—i mostly trained my body to wake up around 6am. I say mostly because I do have the occasional hiccup and oversleep and I do set an alarm for important stuff (e.g., flights in the morning).

It's not that I'm not a morning person, it's that I hate the realization of having woken up again.

Yeah, my partner bought me one for my birthday and it works great for my different coffee needs. My only gripe is that it's loud as hell.

That's a valid point. For me, I use my siphon sparingly nowadays (maybe once a month), so it ends up being every time I use it. So, in the grand scheme of things, not much I think. When I was using the siphon more often (maybe 3 or 4 times a week) I would boil it at the end of the week—much higher impact for sure.

If I were going to plan this out a little more for my current routine/usage, I could boil it inside my kettle when I do my monthly descaling, but that might degrade the cloth much faster.

I have one for my siphon—filters the grinds perfectly well, but as others have touched upon, it's a bit of a chore to keep clean. In addition to cleaning after each use, I boil the crap out of it every now and then for extra measure with a touch of vinegar and it seems to keep it clean.

I still use paper filters for my v60 and I've never used the coffee sock on it. Maybe I'll give it a try.

They sent me an email once inviting me to be a guest editor. I thought it would be a cool experience and a neat thing to have on the CV.

I mentioned it to my advisor at the time and they told me that frontiers does that pretty often and that these special issues don't amount to anything.

Frontiers isn't alone of course. MDPI is notorious for shitty editorial practices too.

I've heard some of my more senior colleagues call frontiers a scam even before this regarding editorial practices there.

It's actually furstratingly common for some reviewer comments to be completely ignored, so it's possible someone raised a flag and no one did anything about it.

I usually do natto and an egg (fried or raw, depending on how I feel). If I feel extra fancy, I throw in some shiokara in the mix—add some nice, salty ocean flavors to the slimy goodness.

I'll just book AAF for 10 consecutive shows where they're only allowed to play the smooth criminal cover.
