@SarahMAnderson1 Hello, Sarah! I write romance also. Welcome to #CoSo! ☕ 🍪

@annamousse Vinegar is honestly magical. I'm now waiting for it to steam the charcoal away. Thanks again for the tip!

@DavidJett 😵 I also did not know one could do that and now I worry that it will happen! I'm not experimenting with my toaster anymore.

@see_the_sus Oh, definitely! 🤣

@annamousse I should have known! Have you seen my previous thread on vinegar? Vinegar is always the answer. Thank you. I'm going to do that now.

"And so she turned to the children of Adam and said, 'Children do not let your buns rest on toasters unless you watch them close. For it is written that the line between warm toasty goodness and burnt dread is finer than a single hair on this poor woman's head."

And the children nodded, and they heeded her warning, and they ate many happy meals.

"And so it came to pass that the foolish woman who failed to monitor her buns while they rested atop her toaster was plagued by the scent of charcoal for four full moons. And she did regret her life choices. And she did wail, 'why me?' But nothing would free her from the smell of burnt bread because the touch of fire endures...

Random fact: The scent of burnt buns has a very long life cycle.

I burned burger buns that I set to warm on the toaster nore than two and a half hours ago. The scent is still going strong. I opened the windows (only for a while because it's really cold out there). I set the kitchen extractor fan. It endures. The burn persists.

I'm sure this is parable-worthy.

@WILDKATZ ❤️ Also, cute kitties!

@th3j35t3r Done. Great article!

@AkomoCombine I love this song with all the nuclei in my cells.

@thedisasterautist This is the kind of fashion advice I can really get behind. 🤣

@DoggFacedGamer 'Buy it to break it' is not even an original strategy. The man's not a genius. He's just a soul sucking jerk. (Credit to Beck.) He's a corporate raider. But in this case I firmly believe he's not interested in retaining the assets (users) for resale in parts. He and his financiers are only interested in breaking it apart because Twitter works(ed) really well as a global alert system. It makes me wonder what kind of hell they plan to unleash.

@KodoAndSangha IRL I am a side hustle. 🤣

@redenigma Yes, I pity all the children of these sad, lost humans.

@KodoAndSangha Shh! Don't remind them we exist! Between 1965 and 1980 NOTHING HAPPENED. That is the rule. 😉

@stueytheround It has always been deliberate self harm. He bought it to break it.
