Contact Page Coming Soon

 Hello. C J here. I have one last task to do in order to set up this website. I need a Contact page with my social media on it. You’d expect Facebook and X along with maybe tiktok or Instagram. Nope. I’ve reliably learned that these platforms are not the right place to meet people. My goal here isn’t some strange abstract concept involving keywords in a post’s heading text or content saturation by day at 4 AM EST. No, I actually want to meet people and not bots and Avon salespeople.

I’m sticking to the social media for the Contact page that I know I can manage and that I know I can use. BARQ, thank god, exists. I make mostly furry stuff and that furry stuff needs to find people who are already in the fandom and that means BARQ. I’m also on Discord and I will be launching a ton of my art and text on SoFurry. Discord and SoFurry were picked very carefully as my other two I can manage at once. But there’s a rule I’ve learned about what social media works and what doesn’t.

I’m trying to meet furries but furries who would enjoy my games. So I need people who are in the fandom who play games. The sad truth is that most board games such horribly and so we the fandom don’t have a board game enthusiast community. We have a Minecraft community though and it spans several social media platforms. Minecraft is a great game. My point is that we have taste. The largest group on BARQ is the BARQ Video Games group and they’re on a couple other applications as well. They’re a great community.

I need to meet people who have taste because my games are supposed to be actually fun. If you find fun on the internet then you find us, the fandom. The fandom like games. So I’m sticking to the gaming groups or chats within these social media platforms. I’ve found that so long as I do this I reliably find people and not people selling me the next generation of the ShamWow. The community is more important than the medium. This sounds like what we do as a fandom. The fandom work together, mostly to beat games. The page itself will take a while because the page isn’t my main goal but it’s being worked on.

Four New Recipes for January

 Hello. C J here. I've got four new recipes for everyone here. We have everything from Chinese chicken to homemade hot apple cider. Enjoy. The Emperor’s Potatoes Here we have the first food item I ever finished designing for Food of the World – Carthia. I tried three combinations of traditional Asian ingredients and pasta under the assumption that I was doing Italian-Chinese food for the book. I could not for the life of me get any of them to be exciting. They were fine. I don’t eat fine. I got bored of the pasta thing and then thought to myself, ‘what happens if I swap the pasta for another starch? What about a potato?’ It worked. Really well. It worked so well I named them The Emperor’s Potatoes. They’re mashed potatoes and I left the skins on because I like vitamins and then that got me thinking about the traditional medicinal food of Ancient China, ginger. Could I put ginger in a potato dish and have it work? Yes. I can. That surprised me. Be warned, these are almost dangerousl...

Recipe - Lemon-Lime Soda

 Hello. C J here. I have here a recipe for homemade lemon-lime soda. This beverage is just as sweet as the original brand it’s based on but has actual lemon juice and lime juice in it. It tastes similar but not as acidic. Strangely this recipe worked the first time I made it. It’s mostly glucose syrup, which any chemist with my knowledge of food could make in a home kitchen. The recipe makes four cups, each one to be served over ice. One cup is mostly enough for one person. Ingredients One Cup Sugar One Half Cup Water One Tablespoon Lemon Juice Three Tablespoons Lime Juice Two and a Half Cups Soda Water For the Glucose Syrup Mix the sugar and the water in a medium saucepan. Put over medium heat and stir frequently until the sugar is dissolved and the liquid is clear. It should still be thicker than water. For the Soda Measure out two and a half cups of soda water. Pour into this the glucose syrup in a heat proof one quart measuring cup or other heat proof vessel. Add the lemon juic...

Chocolate and Barbecue Sauce and Truffles Oh My

 Hello. C J here. I've got two new recipes for everyone today. I meant to type up a third but for the life of me I can't find the paper index card I wrote it down on. I will have to make it again and post it later once I double check I have the right proportions. I know what's in it but the proportions are done by taste. It's for Asian style ginger baked beans as part of my Asian-barbecue book I'm working on. The book might actually end up being cards for the card game because the recipes are so simple they fit in that format. That makes my job easier. Here's our two recipes for today. The first is a new Asian style barbecue sauce I invented from scratch. This isn't based on an existing sauce. It's the product of a lot of planning and research. It's great. The second recipe is for my final draft scratch made dark chocolate. This stuff is good. I still have some of the batch I made three days ago on hand. It's too tasty to eat. There will be a mil...
