    I came here to pick apart your instructions like some kind of popcorn elitist, but this guide is very similar to my method. You have excellent taste! I will try that specific brand of oil.

    Here is the guide I wrote to myself a few years ago. I've sent it to many friends:

    Fill silicone popper with "Mushroom" kernels to the line (1/4 cup, 50g)

    Add refined coconut oil 1 tablespoon

    Add flavicol 1/2 teaspoon

    Put on the lid

    Microwave until popping is 3 or so seconds between pops, or lid starts coming off.

    That's it! It turns out exactly like movie theater popcorn.

    I'm surprised you're the only one to mention mushroom kernels. They make a huge difference!

    Almost done tapering off escitalopram (lexapro). I've been on it for 14 years or so? The taper started 4 months ago

    Still think it's a good idea. I got an autism diagnosis last year and that plus exercise seems to work better for my anxiety.

    I'm in a different place than I was in 2012 that's for sure. We'll see how I feel a couple months from now.

    Growing up, I had a sick tree fort with a copy of the 4 player version permanently set up inside. Loved that game.

    btw I had an index and I can't imagine using VR without hand straps. I also had a 3rd party headstrap (something with a counterweight ) which I would consider essential, but I dunno with the frame...

    I also had a 3rd party headstrap (something with a counterweight ) which I would consider essential, but I dunno with the frame cuz it's much lighter.

    Yo, congrats, I'm excited for you!! Did you get the 256GB or 1TB? I think they're still being gradually sent out so fingers crossed for me, but it's also ok if I have to wait.

    Funny, I was editing my home assistant's yaml file this morning. Perhaps I should install the nuclear holocaust prep plug-in.

    I enjoy this quite a lot. Any chance of an android app? Or a way to get an email when you release the iOS app ( to try on my ipad). Thank you.
