That's fair. Even without inclusions there are lots of other ways to play with different recipes though: different grain/flour blends at varying levels of hydration, different mixing and shaping methods, milling your own flour, cold bulking/multi-day fermentations. The more you experiment the more you'll learn about breadmaking in a wholistic way. Speaking from experience, it's easy to get sucked into making one recipe which works well over and over and get bored/think you've mastered it, but really there's always so much to learn if you choose to!

    Looks good! I reckon you could push the bulk another ~30 mins next time.

    I try to mix up my loaves when I start getting bored: soy & linseed, rye & guinness, gochujang & roasted garlic, etc. Find fun inclusions, mess around with different loaf types / shapes, make baguettes or focaccia. There is a whole world of amazing bread out there to be curious about!

    I absolutely agree on the consent bit, but it already seems to be well and truly normalised IMO. Banning it in porn is madness though - those with healthy boundaries already understand porn isn't real life, and those who don't aren't going to suddenly learn about consent if we ban certain (arbitrary) acts. The correct measure, as usual, is to invest in proper sex education instead of prohibition.

    I enjoyed Galley House but not as much as Roottrees, although I think I'm in the minority there. The supernatural conceit of the game took me out of it a little bit and the way the story unfolds, while incredibly clever and satisfying in many ways, didn't lead to the same draw to uncover every little thing for me. Don't get me wrong though, it is an absolutely stellar game and one you should absolutely play if you like that kind of puzzler.

    Another game I literally just heard about along the same lines is called Message from Deep Space and looks fantastic. The puzzles/deduction seems more like Chants of Senaar though, if you're familiar with that game.

    I'll check out Dupery - never heard of it!

    Inkblood, and Funeral for the Sun. I played both Roottrees are Dead and Incident at Galley House earlier in the year and have been keen for more deduction-based puzzlers. Also played and loved Obra-Dinn when it came out so anything in that vein holds an immediate appeal for me.
