Happy happy birthday, I can't sing here on Fakku
Yeah, enjoy the sad rhyme. Happy birthday, though! Hope it is a lovely one.

SWEET I can make my fig cup things.
Hmm... but maybe something with fresher ingredients would be better.

Made my own Nutella pastry puffs! REALLY GOOD. And fairly easy!
So I checked out a few other Nutella pastry recipes, but none were exactly what I wanted (pure Nutella filling, nothing else). So I made my own variation on them.
What I used:
* Nutella (six spoonfuls, for six puffs; if you want to use a full pastry sheet, you’ll need 9 spoonfuls)
* Frozen pastry puff sheets (I only had time to use 2/3 of one sheet; refreeze the second sheet in the box quickly so it doesn’t go bad once you remove a single sheet)
* Egg wash (one egg + 1 tsp of water, whisked together; apply with brush)
* Some kind of brush to put on eggwash, and a fork for crimping and whisking.
* Floured surface for rolling pastry out and cutting. Make sure to let the sheet defrost before rolling it (I let mine sit for 20 min, and by then it was ready to use).
Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees~
2. One recipe I read suggested rolling out the sheet on a floured surface, so I did that. Thinned out the pastry sheet and made it larger. Trust me, they’ll still be quite puffy when done!
3. Just took 2/3 of one sheet of a frozen puff pasty sheet (defrosted), divide into squares (each sheet is 3 long strips, so divide each strip into 3 squares/rectangles depending on if you want triangle or rectangle puffs)
4. Divide up your squares and pick one to start on.
5. Plop some Nutella in the center! Mmmmmm Nutella. Don’t eat too much of it yet!
6. Brush some egg wash onto the parts of that side that were not covered by Nutella, so that when you do the next step it sticks closed when cooked.
7. Fold over your square/rectangle so it forms either a triangle or rectangle shape. This seals the Nutella inside.
8. Brush some egg wash onto the top of the folded pastry, and sprinkle a little sugar on top! Then use your fork to crimp the edges shut.
9. When oven is ready, pop em in on a cooking sheet. I didn’t butter mine or anything (not sure what they’d require) since I have a teflon sheet here at home.
10. Set timer for 20 min, and remove when you see they are golden browned on top and puffed up! Mine took just under the 20 min that were suggested by a similar recipe, so just wait until you smell that yummy pastry smell, then check on them!
11. Let cool when done, then INDULGE IN THE AWESOME.
I can say from experience, make these for friends or something, because I was the only one home and I ate alllll mine. Nom nom, my friends!


I also posted this on my Procraftinate tumblr, derp.

Hey, liking that you guys got Sumo to do ads on the site!
I tried to click one to check it out, but it loaded the page in the ad's frame somehow, instead of opening a new tab or loading the site in the current window.
Just a little thing, but yeah, fyi.

Are you guys doing Another Anime Con? I know I saw your booth there once in the past, but it's in October right?
Just didn't see it on the con page.

So from the general response, this isn't a big issue because most of FAKKU does not use a major provider or because it's not an issue period. is this correct?Actually it *is* a big issue, since this is a big step against net neutrality and even the lesser providers may be influenced through the chilling effect of this turn.
Yep. Hope to heaven this crap doesn't pass.
Seems that since they judge netizens/weeaboos as being instant pedos, one may want to hide all tech devices and/or anime merch out of plain sight before traveling across the border.
Never hurts to act normal, as long as you aren't concealing anything you know to be truly illegal.

I love how the EFF has been trying to tell people this for years. And no one cares until it's too late. D;https://www.eff.org/
I'm sorry to ask but, who are they exactly? Haven't heard about them until just now.
A leading research and interest organization on digital rights, issues and causes.
They've gotten press in recent years for their beliefs and spearheading campaigns to ensure 'net neutrality'.
