Happy Sunday, comrades!
This thread is a space for you to talk about anything cool you've got going on, anything you want to vent about, or whatever is on your mind. Hope you've all been doing well!
For my own part, been inside trying to stay warm the last 2 weeks or so. Tried to go on a few dates, but either my mental health stopped me, or the person and I just kinda stopped talking. Didn't really feel much like leaving the couch. Today, however, I'm getting stuff done, and them going to stay a few days with my primary partner.
Had a job interview on Friday that I'm actually kind of excited about (aside from the 'hey you need income' thing) - it's a position that would see me working with nonprofits in a consulting capacity that I will not explain here at the moment. We'll just say its a tech role, with salary comparable to my last job that I got let go from, which is a good thing. Also doing my taxes now and that'll be a big help with stuff.
Beyond that, finished Jojo's Bizarre Adventure and loved it. Anyone know where to get an English version of Steel Ball Run?
Hope you've all been doing well, and remember, you are loved 
How the heck do you get your booch to carbonate? Mine was always nice and tart but could never get it to fizz.
I'm still experimenting a lot. My first 2 batches ever were really fizzy, but they were in smaller containers.
I think it might have to do with whether the scoby seals to the edge of the jar. I could be wrong though.
What kind of water do you use? That's another thing I've sort of always wondered because I'm a trash human and just used tap water.
I also use tap water; maybe I'll try bottled or filtered or distilled at some point.
