Oh, Tanel... Just come visit the US already! Let’s see how many first times you can have in a day. ☺️🫂

i would absolutely love to, i'd love to learn some cooking from you 💜☺️

i am now even curious where would i even fly, but absolutely, let's make it happen 🤗

You say when! 😌🫂

time for #tanelvisitsamerica ? 😂💜

The hole!

Go to NYC and then have a bagel Tanel. Everywhere else pretends to have them, NYC does it best though.

dude, i would absolutely love to visit NYC

curious how many nostriches live out there

Walk around in the city on shrooms -- it's a stellar experience!

wait, is that true?

i've never tried, so i'd be curious to give it a go

A shroom day in the city is good for the soul. 🤩

i need a special #tanelhasnt list just for america it seems

How much time do we have? 🕰️

Kidding. 🤭 Let’s do it!

⌚️👀 *takes a look*

seems like we really are on the clock here

feel free to bombard with some have you ever questions, you'd be amazed 😂💜

I’ll write down a list of them, first. 😌 Then get back to you. 📋

just checked, that a roundtrip on it's own would cost me around a $1000 😳

you always have the best gifs at hand 😂

I’m a gif junkie. 🫣

Sounds about right. We’ve paid more for a similar trip about a year ago.

Try the skyscanner app for good deals.

that's where i was currently looking, i don't unfortunately have the facilities for that, so maybe next time 💜

Go Bitcoin! 🚀🧡

Keep stacking and you'll have the freedom to move anywhere on a long enough time horizon.

need actual work for that, most of the spots want 9-5 availability, which i can't provide while in uni

You’ve got this! 🫂 Just keep stacking all the while.

you're always so positive and optimistic 💜

love that 🤗

I try. 🫂💜

For public settings, stick to less than 0.5 grams. Remember to take deep, steady breaths and keep in mind it's just a trip (Such is life).

If you're taking higher doses, do it alone (or with an experienced user) in a calm environment and prepare yourself mentally and physically (mindset and setting are crucial) because you'll experience various states of being (the merging of higher and lower selves might be unsettling initially).

Ultimately, it's a spiritual journey that demands utmost respect.

hmm, are there certain environments to do it at?

Where you are most at ease; and not indoors.

Personally, I prefer the beach or pretty much anywhere close to nature.

For instance, situating your avatar in shallow water (like sitting on a sandbar) has to be one of the most incredible sensations I've ever felt -- it's absolutely divine and feels so purifying. 😌

If you’re ever out here lmk. We got a good group of nostriches out here.

oh absolutely, let's make it happen

i want to meet all the american nostriches finally

Yes NY does it best.

Not too dense

Perfectly toasted

With cream cheese

But no giant chunk in the middle

And in two slices, not mashed together

You're description is making me hungry

dude

i need to now, this sounds absolutely lovely with some morning coffee

Odd pairing but worth a try! It’s a moist, lightly onion flavored bread, with a generous amount of flavorful seeds on top. 👌🏻

what would you usually pair it with? i am completely unaware here

I was thinking simple juices, went to google that and learned that I was wrong. There are many lists of excellent bagels-coffee pairings, apparently. I’ll try that with you. Oh, and 🍷!

oh, a freshly squeezed orange juice sounds heavenly

absolutely, let's give it a go 🤗💜

This! And you also want it to have a good chew. Nicely cooked outside from the boiling step of bagel making, and fluffy gluten goodness on the inside.

wait

you boil bagels?!

i am learning so much here

i just found out too 🫨

haha, yeah, you boil bagels, if you do them properly

the romanians do really nice ones tied up in knots... when i was homeless in bucharest the day i discovered them was quite a nice day... tasty and full of energy and chewy and yum and chewy

i think the water needs to be really salty tho

also the bread needs to be really oily

wow i had no idea, dis is fascinating

boiled bread 😂

never have i ever looked at bread and thought

"ah fack, i wish this was boiled"

Yeah! Boil for a minute or so on each side, then bake. That’s how you get the chewy outside! 🤤

i've never ever even considered the concept of a chewy bread

i am not sure i even understand

You must have some badges!

My favourites are:

Hell Thread 6 Survivors

69 Gang

Free Ralf

The Tanel

Pizza Day (only 21 of 'em)

The Burger badge

I survived the '23 banking crash

... and probably 20 more lol.

ser

read again 😂💜

don't post notes before my 3rd gallon of coffee!! 🤣

i dint think i ever had a good bagel

i remember just dry ones

only ate them 2x in my life never again

rly good questions here

the bagel-like things they sell in Bucharest are pretty awesome... super chewy...

are they more like doughnuts?

no, i mean rubbery like chewing gum but tasty

i think part of the trick is they are boiled

boiled bagel? im confuse

that is awesome thanks gon watch maybe try out soon even

it helps it get that whole chewy thing going on, idk how to explain it... different heat... slower, deeper

less crispy more rubbery

yeah, shit, it might even inspire me to start making my own bread damn...

i have been on this OMAD since i started eating giant buns filled with eggs, serbian style (you remove the insides of the bun first) the shit is sooo filling and tasty

ah yes and i have been eating 30-60g a day of cacao butter, but i think that any kind of ruminant dripping (beef dripping, lamb, goat) will have similar effects

seriously fucking panacea... the fat of the lamb... so to speak... can also be cow or steer, or goat or mutton

making the "lepinja" (lepinya) bun by doing this boil thing might just turn it from mmmm to HOLYFUCKINGSHIT

i hope rope is taking notes here, wen proper bagel date 👀

Bagels are a conspiracy 🥯

🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️

Bagel is ‘le Gab’ spelled backwards 🧐

As much as I don't enjoy big cities, I have to admit NYC has the very best bagels. Supposedly how they're cooked I think (and the fact that they're always fresh) but don't know for sure.

Nowhere else are they quite the same (at least not that I've experienced).

One made in New York

NYC has the BEST bagels! It has to be boiled first.

There’s a big taste and texture difference in a proper NYC bagel.

Great Bagels obsession is a thing
