nigea sourdough starter is just an artisanal tamagotchi for millennials
s4m3nt@koalaslament - this hits.
ACAB for Cutie 
@koalaslament but Tamagotchis were the regular Tamagotchis for millennials!
I had a Giga pet. It was a cat 🐈

Abby Snow@koalaslament Provocative point. My millennial son suggested we build a starter in late 2019. In early March 2020, I suggested we put off creating it since we were planning a cross-country move from NYC to Phoenix sometime in the next year or two.
Then the lockdown in NYC in late March and I could not buy the great sourdough breads from Eli Zabar so I started making my own.
It took about a year, but I am now making all our breads at home with that NYC sourdough.
@JonkroAbby lovely!
Otter MD 🦞@koalaslament Wrong! A good sourdough starter is a living respirating metabolizing organism which will live wildly at room temp, do delicious and useful things in your kitchen, and then subside quietly back into the refrigerator and wait with minimal attention until you next have time to deal with it. There is no other being in your life that fills that low-maintenance niche.
secretsloth (she/they)@koalaslament am a millennial and I still have tamagotchis. They have color screens now. 
Jesse@koalaslament Tamagotchi beeped at me. The dog passive-aggressively paws at her bowls. The kid shoves Cheerios at me. If it can’t tell me it needs feeding, I’m not interested
Helen Robertson 4@koalaslament 😂😂😂 The difference being all the little yeasties do die if you don’t look after it, just like ginger beer plants!
Saul Sugarman@koalaslament Now I need a Tomagotchi.
Bee@koalaslament I just put my bread in the oven, sat down for a nice mindless scroll, and then I was viciously attacked 🤣
Liza@koalaslament don’t you dare talk about my Gal Gadough like this
