Dunno if it's good advice, but when my stomach's a bit wonky I tend to gravitate towards dry snacky foods, like pretzels or crackers or dry toast. Combine with non-milk-or-sugar-based drinks. Hot tea is nicest, though maybe not if you have a fever.

Agreeing with this, also plain rice (maybe a bit salted), generally not terribly hard foods, but ones that fill you up a bit.

Terrifying of the day is thinking about the upcoming summer, because if we're having 20 degree weather now, and the summers usually peak at slightly over 40, I dread to think what this one could bring, whatever it is, a single AC will not be enough :C

Plain brown rice, if it's an option. Not the white stuff. It's helped me through a few of the more recent stomach emergencies. Shame it's as annoying to cook as it is, though, and somewhat hard to find decent plain-ish stuff in restaurants, 'least in my neck of the states.

Saltine crackers are excellent for stomach-related illness. They're light, almost flavorless, cheap, and don't make much of a mess if they come back up. That, and it's easy to control exactly how much you eat.

Oh god not even half way done moving text from Bay12 to FiMFiction.

I'm not sure if I should be terrified or wtfing, but I feel this fits in here better :P

Porting text from Bay12 to Fimfiction? What is this, a fortress of ponies? :P

Disappointed I didn't find anything in the featured box, now. This is relevant to my interests.

If you want a link I'd be happy to share. Always glad to do stuff like that :P

EDIT: IF you're anything like me, just do what you normally do in terms of food :3

They're also scratchy if that's what you want, or you can chew them slowly to soften. You can also tart them up if you're feeling adventurous. And you can eat them with zero prep time.

Excellent suggestion.

The only thing olives go well with is fire when they burn for being terrible.

Get back from plasma donation, beginning weekly cookery project, drink many glasses of water. Later, check email, find out there's been a boil advisory for local tapwater on account of a broken water main. Here's hoping it was an unnecessary precaution to warn everyone to boil their water!

In the days when Sussman was a novice, Minsky once came to him as he sat hacking at the PDP-6.
“What are you doing?”, asked Minsky. “I am training a randomly wired neural net to play Tic-Tac-Toe” Sussman replied. “Why is the net wired randomly?”, asked Minsky. “I do not want it to have any preconceptions of how to play”, Sussman said.
Minsky then shut his eyes. “Why do you close your eyes?”, Sussman asked his teacher.
“So that the room will be empty.”
At that moment, Sussman was enlightened.

My only regret now is that my art skills aren't up to scratch for mocking up an Inquisitor of the Ordo Olīva.

Actually, my only regret is ever tasting an olive, putrid things. Even worse than the vile flavour that is garlic.

You best take that back right now. :P

Although, straight garlic isn't that tasty. Just like straight ginger. When it's used to give flavour to dish, though? Fuck yeah.
