empathic powers will always be my favourite narrative device especially when used dissociatively like yes please do refuse to show the slightest outward expression of emotion even as glass trembles and shatters when struck with the force of your grief and the wall at your back warps and chars in the molten heat of your rage it never gets old
you say you aren't happy to see me but your blade is glowing bright as fuck and shaking like an overeager puppy as i approach so either somebody's lying or i'm even more of a pervert than i thought
For those of you looking for these recipes, they're from Cooking for Engineers. Which should shock nobody. But it's a great site. Sadly seems to be defunct, but I can personally vouch for the recipes being presented in a foolproof* manner. Not only is the card layout great (honestly, just having the oven temperature right there instead of having to keep trying to find it in the recipe is a game changer), but every step has a photo. None of this "until done" rubbish, it'll have a photo of "yeah, here's how it should look, and no, this photo isn't overly produced".
And unlike most cooking blogs, the commentariat substitutions are generally competent!
If you're still not sold on the site, may I add that he once took a pair of calipers to Chili's to test their claim that "their new Smokehouse Bacon Burgers [...] have 'the thickest bacon you've ever seen'."
Unsurprisingly, his verdict was:
(on Friday, April 13, 2008 at the Chili's in Santa Clara, California) they served bacon that was (to an accuracy of 1/128th of an inch) 3/16 in. thick (4.75 mm ± 0.2mm) after cooking. [...] Does it truly hold up to its claim that it's the "thickest bacon you've ever seen"? My guess is that for most people that's true, but for me it was most definitely not the case.
So yeah, definitely check out his website, whether you're a novice or experienced cook, whether you're an engineer or someone who didn't even know what a caliper was before you started reading this. I highly recommend starting with the shepherd's pie (yes, it's the same one from Joy of Cooking), and either the creme brulee or the biscotti for dessert. The recipe image OP used was for espresso brownies. Presumably roasting your own beans is optional, though.

All of these really made me laugh, and laughter is a very good thing sometimes. All of the time, actually. Unless you're doing something that requires a still hand or silence I guess.
If I may add @sgt-cookie-2's masterpiece:
I love that Jongho didn't even figure out the puzzle. He just found a hammer, put 2 and 2 together that he needed to HULK SMASH one of them to get the code, and got lucky picking the right bust to hit.
Choi Jongho is the unbothered king of nonchalant competence.
