Take a Sip of Beer
Now take a deep breath. Ignore the fascists on the right who project Nationalism while slowly picking away a ta fund for the people (can you say socialism for the 1% disguised as Nationalism?).

Why is there no modern counter-culture? I feel like listening to some Against Me! What’s his name again? Fuck, he is a she and now I am the asshole.

How much money is left in the Bank? Enough for now. But the government funds run out at the end of the month. Good! I’m tired of not earning money for myself. Even in a situation where I lack control, I want to contribute. People typically want to contribute with the exception of lazy socialists. I loathe being comfortable on common wealth money.

What is there to do in a world slowly falling apart? Drink and bake. Drinking and baking is the solution to your problem. But not just any sort of drinking and baking. I am talking about Christmas baking, the kind of baking that might give you diabetes. And Christmas drinking, the kind of drinking where the more you drink, the more you tell your family how you really feel about them.
This year has really hit the metaphorical shit storm of shit storms. In December, the average working man decides, “fuck it! and checks out for the entire month. However, in 2020, that starts now, in July!
Xoco Bites with Stone Xocoveza
Chocolate bites have been my guilty pleasure of the past 5 years. A versatile, yet unique pairing of chocolate and fat. Sometimes butter, sometimes coconut butter, but always chocolate. Flavors seem to figure our the palette more so than most humans these day.
When I’ve made Xocoveza cupcakes in the past, they key ingredient was been pasilla peppers. Pasilla peppers was a key ingredient when brewing Xocoveza so we want that flavor integrated into the recipe. However, after the first tasting, I felt a mild spice and earthy flavors. Something more eye-catching was needed. the only thing that could bring this up a little is Korean chili powder. This helped.
On the first batch, I accidentally put in mint extract instead of vanilla extract and created a smooth flavor that absolutely obliterated the palette with mint. Not spice was to be found in that batch. In the second batch, I found myself engaging the senses with spice. It was everything I wanted in a summer Christmas!
