Happy 4/20 everyone! I recently started drinking coffee in the last year after never really liking it. Growing up I would try my mom's coffee every once in a while but it always tasted burnt and bitter. Looking back I realize that I didn't like that coffee due to my mom usually steeping it in a French press for 15-20 minutes.
I got into coffee in the last year due to my roommate who worked as a barista making me some and it being actually flavorful. But we were using a drip coffee machine and it wasn't strong enough for my liking. Before I actually started drinking coffee I liked to watch coffee gadget reviews cause I thought they were interesting? Which is how I found out about the aeropress which is my way I make my coffee in the morning.
The aeropress is kind of a three one thing cause it's a pour over, French press and manual espresso machine all in one, in addition I use a hand crank burr grinder to grind my beans and typically only add a bit of creamer as I want to taste the coffee as much as possible I also usually use medium roast beans.
How do you take your coffee/tea?
CW organized international transphobia attempting to try and ruin the life of a specific trans woman
The Australian/UK tabloids (they're owned the same people) have doxxed Beth Upton the doctor who received all the transphobic harassment in Scotland (leading to the transphobic Supreme Court finding), she had moved to Australia and is working and training here. They found out through her AHPRA registration (the list of registered doctors and healthcare providers), meaning some ghoulish interns had been checking anglophone registries to find her. The headlines have been dogshit calling her "controversial". There has been discussion by local reactionaries about her being registered as female on AHPRA and how that shouldn't be allowed. This is despite the fact most Australian states and territories have self-ID for sex and there are plenty of trans doctors, nurses, psychologists registered on AHPRA.It just so fucked
