I decided to make another batch of makgeolli (Korean rice-based alcoholic beverage), I even had the nuruk starter culture soaking to activate it beforehand, but I couldn't find the sweet rice I bought for it. So having already looked up how you'd do it with other kinds of rice that are "SNAP EBT eligible" and that I already have here I'm going to do that. Duckduckgo's AI even gave me a suggestion on how I'd make a fermented adult beverage with oatmeal and ordinary yeast (both SNAP EBT eligible) I started that before I went to bed, and the yeast and sugar are chugging right along in that old coffee canister.
So today, while I empty out my kitchen for a major cleaning in preparation for Thursday's genocide of cockroaches, I'll be soaking and steaming some brown rice to make makgeolli with. The just-add-water instant version I bought a few weeks ago that started me off on brewing the real stuff from scratch is made from brown rice, so it should turn out okay. As for the oatmeal and yeast stuff, well, it's okay if that doesn't work because I already had lots of oatmeal, more than enough yeast, and I'm not out of white sugar yet.
Another good thing about this hobby is there isn't much actual work to it. Soak and cook rice (or make it with oatmeal which doesn't even need cooking), put that in the container you're using (I have a couple old plastic canisters that coffee came in), add the starter culture to it, pour in some water (the instructions I found say if you use tap water it's better to boil it first to gas off some of the chlorine), and let it sit for a week or so. Making cider and kombucha take even less actual work, so I'm planning to try one or both of those soon.
My main hypothetical goal, teaching myself to write fiction so I can actually output output before I die of sheer frustration, requires as much time and effort as I could possibly give it, which I haven't really gotten around to yet. Maybe after the kitchen has been specifically* cleansed I can sit here sipping the results of my experiments in fermentation and finally put my brain to use in a form somebody might enjoy reading, as opposed to this crap.

* GPT-4o mini, Duckduckgo's AI, said the adjective form of the word "species" is "specific."
So getting a species out of a place is" specific cleansing." I like that. You can say that without anybody catching on that what you're talking about is the mass murder of a local population of a species called Blattella germanica that doesn't mean to harm anybody, they just happen to take up residence and do what they do where you don't want them, while unintentionally spreading germs and allergens all over the place. Some religions, like the Jains of India, would find killing those creatures (almost?) as blameworthy as murdering a human, so they'd be as horrified at me for specifically cleansing my kitchen as y'all are by Israel ridding Gaza of its allegedly aboriginal inhabitants.
One might even say that before Israel's mass murder the Muslim Arabs of Gaza were, like the cockroaches in my kitchen, just going about doing they do, which in their case involves praying five times a day, not eating pork, executing "sodomites," and wishing they could kill every Jew they see (even occasionally doing just that, which the Israeli government especially frowns on).
For some reason massively killing the inhabitants of Gaza for doing what Palestinians do horrifies Western ultraliberals far more than eradicating the insects in my kitchen, even though until 1945 that was regarded as a normal part of warfare and conquest: Julius Caesar publicly bragged about the hundreds of thousands of innocent Gauls he ordered murdered or enslaved, the British colonists of North America intentionally set out to practice their creed of "the only good Injun is a dead Injun" with horrific and almost total results, and so on.
Yet somehow a bunch of Germans following their Leader's directive to rid Europe of TheJews(R) ruined everybody's fun forever after. Nowadays you can't just cleanse away an ethnos without some distant strangers, who've got nothing to do with anything, getting their bloomers all bunched up. They call it "genocide", which technically means the murder of an entire genus (such as Homo, which is a good idea), and they wave their signs of slogans at TV cameras in your honor while vehemently chanting the most impolite things.
What might the avant le letter Americans of the 17th, 18th, and 19 centuries say about such "protests"? Some Israeli soldiers even maintain they're merely following Divine commands, as the colonists did to the "redskins" they found here. Becoming outraged at the eradication of a few hundred thousand "innocent" people is an entirely modern invention, tha wasn't really a thing until the "Judeo-Bolsheviks" (literally the Soviet government and their erstwhile allies among the Yiddim) insisted that the "United Nations" throw themselves one humongous show trial for all the world to see.
And then the Zionist leaders of certain factions among TheJews(R) used that "genocide" and the subsequent proceedings as an excuse to settler-colonialize a small section of the Levantine desert, doing to the Palestinians they found there exactly what the English did for several hundred years to the native inhabitants of the island of Ireland. You see, you come, you conquer, that's just how things go. Or it did, until a party of "Communists" and a sect among TheJews(R) convinced the world that after al, it is not the right thing to do. (There's a bit of cognitive dissonance in the dream of Zionism.)
So what am I to make of this? Well, for these and a brazilian other reasons I myself advocate for radical measures, the specific cleansing of the Planet Earth, indeed the murder of the entire genus of Homo (as some people argue that for example Germans and Rwandans are of different species), All I want for Xmas, and for my birthday, and for every other commemorable anniversary such as that of my wedding, all I really want in the world, is the extinction of humans from it. Everything we do, everything that comes naturally, such fucking and killing and gambling and waving signs, is bound to annoy some people, who the go on to annoy the rest of us with their annoyance.
Marrying people of the same sex, chopping down the Amazon forest, sacrificing beeves to an idol named Ronald, enacting cognitive dissonance on a province of Queer-killers, everything that anybody might think is fun, someone will somehow get all upset about. Very excitedly, often noisily, and when they can in awfully large crowds.
These categories of actions, certain people doing what they do and certain people loudly disliking it, impose unwelcome distractions on sensitive mentalities such as mine. What would Stalin do?
To hell with you all, I say. Get rid of genus Homo. Let "everybody dies" go from caustic quip to categorical imperative. What we really ought to do is to finally solve every problem we have, to put an end to everything we object to, to extirpate thus genus from Gaia. It's about time. It has been for millennia.
Humans OUT of this whole Earth.
From pole to pole NO human soul.
"Save the planet, kill yourself."
