Are people actually using this place for fun yet or is it still just insufferably serious faculty lobby discussion room

Yes

"i just use AI for-" say no more, i already think less of you

Ya any time !!

I never log in on here anymore but I did just in time to see this so I am getting u on Venmo from username yolo goat

lol thank you

I was about to write this exact thing that twenty years from now ppl will be citing our tweets lmao

Please tell me there’s a section on DSA Twitter beef

Absolutely gorgeous zibibbo from patelleria made by gabrio Bini. Peaches and stone fruit, spicy acidity on the finish, insanely perfumey and aromatic, rare and tiny production but so glad I got one. It’s from 2022 and zibibbo is a type of muscat but this isn’t sweet at all

I just listened to thantifaxath and couldn’t get into it. Just sounded like that whole crowd of post-DSO bands. Do I just not like metal anymore??

Ya a friend and I made some pumpkins !

I wanna try that!! I took some glassblowing classes this winter and that was fun

Lmao that demographic (Covid conscious sober asexual queer) is so Lex coded. Just say ur a loser

Cinsault, Aramon, Syrah and perhaps other grapes, this is a red field blend from languedoc made by Jeff coutelou. He consistently makes deep, complex wines that are also super drinkable and this was no exception. Spicy, floral, with some mushroom notes and deep red and black fruits, mostly berries.

Unsurprisingly, the research team includes racialists lol

There’s a new paper by some geneticists and linguists about their latest theory of a PIE homeland and they’re seething at the criticism that this is all made up and spurious research

Proto indo European

Reading the linguists on twitter say “Bruce Lincoln is a creationist basically” has been eye opening lol

What’s the state of the discourse re that PIE paper on here? People realize that field is full of shit and has no credible theory of history yea?

Tasting these was a blessing, one I may never have again lol. That Brignot is like $600

Oh mannnnn last night I was invited to come meet this guy who had just been to a wine auction and brought in his haul? Some very hard to get Japanese wines, a beautiful PN from Alsace, and an ultra rare brignot savagnin 2004 from the jura

Give it a couple years they’ll come back around again

Idgaf if they’re not in anymore tbh it’s all I’m wearing. I still like the feel better and can’t stand having extra fabric rustling around

This is so fucking good. It’s a triple cream cow milk cheese that is so creamy it just falls apart and oozes out when left at room temp. I finished this 12 ounce wheel in three days

Jura savagnin from last night. Bright and floral, not oxidative at all, which is a little uncharacteristic for the region. Lemon, lemon leaf, very soft and rounded and lovely with a tinge of beeswax and pollen. Very spring time wine

Forgot to post this one. The first natural dessert wine I’ve ever had, from one of the all time greats of natural wine, oh my god this is good. Sure, it’s got silky botrytis and honey, but it’s also got a background acidity and savoriness to it. I could drink this all day ngl

Last thing we opened last night was this. It’s a … cider? Idk man it’s a coferment of Syrah and some sort of apple. This might have been my fav thing from last nights soirée. Sharp, toasty, awake and delicious with a beer like texture

Second is the new vintage (2023) that just released from Andrea Calek! This one’s 80% Viognier and 20% Chardonnay. Like all ardèchoise natural wines this one’s got lots of acidity and minerality, with a nice mild smoke and unripe stone fruit taste (peachy/aprioctish). Loved it!

Two wines from this Friday. First is Gregory white, 2022 chenanson — a grape no one’s ever heard of, or at least none of us had? — from languedoc. 1L bottle for $27, fucking party wine lol. Actually tastes like grapes. Light, flowing, graceful and fun
