Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: YouTube: I’m baptising it the Carmen Miranda dancing fungus.; ९/७/२४, १०:३९ AM
NKP म्हणाले...: A question for the hostess or fellow commenters:

Is there a way to access comments I've made here in the past, by my commenter ID?

Easy peasy on Discus. Not much help on Blogger.; ९/७/२४, १०:४४ AM
Hassayamper म्हणाले...: Looks like the golden oyster mushroom, Pleurotus citrinopileatus. Not only a choice edible, but an invasive species. Better go back and collect it all!

If I'm not mistaken, you photographed this same species once before.; ९/७/२४, १०:४६ AM
NKP म्हणाले...: P.S. Nice fungus. Maybe best yet.; ९/७/२४, १०:४७ AM
Mike (MJB Wolf) म्हणाले...: Ooh pretty!; ९/७/२४, १०:५८ AM
Mike (MJB Wolf) म्हणाले...: Is there a way to access comments I've made here in the past, by my commenter ID?

Not that I've found. For fun I clicked into 2013 and boy has the commentariat changed since then. But it's not indexable.; ९/७/२४, ११:०३ AM
n.n म्हणाले...: Mushrooms are very versatile and really taste great with many spices and herbs, for example, Cilantro, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, chili, basil, chives, cinnamon, garam masala, Kadai masala, curry powder, ground coriander, cumin, turmeric, clove, black pepper, rosemary, thyme, marjoram, dill, tarragon, ...

Served with a glass of Chianti, pethaps.; ९/७/२४, ११:०५ AM
NKP म्हणाले...: Thanks, Mike. Odd that Google would lack such a useful info tool. Maybe it's a feature?; ९/७/२४, ११:२२ AM
Mike (MJB Wolf) म्हणाले...: Google stopped improving Blogger as soon as it became popular.; ९/७/२४, ११:२५ AM
traditionalguy म्हणाले...: How do you keep that fungus blooming? Do you water it? Maybe the wife would like a bouquet. So much stuffyou can learn on Althouse. Funguses are fascinating.; ९/७/२४, ११:३८ AM
Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: Is there a way to access comments I've made here in the past, by my commenter ID?

Althouse did something like what you seem to be asking for, with a commenter that died. She used a code on Google's search bar with the commenters name and shazam.

Let me see if I can find it.; ९/७/२४, १२:०८ PM
William म्हणाले...: Even a fungus, generally so humble in its aspirations, reaches for beauty and symmetry. Do good looking, symmetrical fungi have any evolutionary advantages?....Animals that taste good certainly do. Is beauty like BBQ simply a homo sapiens prejudice.; ९/७/२४, १२:२२ PM
Breezy म्हणाले...: That’s a beauty…!; ९/७/२४, १२:५० PM
Dave Begley म्हणाले...: Biden press conference this week.

I certainly hope a member of the Press asks Joe how much he wants as a bribe in order to step down.

Just say the quiet part out loud. He's so senile, he might even answer the question!

Never in my life did I think I'd witness such corruption at such a high level in our republic. The Press knows Biden has been bribed but won't investigate.; ९/७/२४, १:११ PM
rehajm म्हणाले...: Live opening of the Rolex eaten by a cow; ९/७/२४, १:२८ PM
rehajm म्हणाले...: Tough day today- the weems I promised to the wife runs perfectly in the flat but stops at the nine o'clock down position. The balance wheel has a bunch of funky looking screws. i should have known it was a bodge job when I had to move the regular to the far side of the slow end, My fault for not catching it. Now I have to dig deeper, likely start over...; ९/७/२४, १:४४ PM

There may be a way. Click Here to see how Althouse did it.

She typed site:althouse.blogspot.com username on the Google search; ९/७/२४, १:४९ PM
rehajm म्हणाले...: That IS a nice looking shroom...photogenic winner; ९/७/२४, १:५० PM
Hassayamper म्हणाले...: Is there a way to access comments I've made here in the past, by my commenter ID?

Not that I've found. For fun I clicked into 2013 and boy has the commentariat changed since then. But it's not indexable.

Even Googling "hassayamper +site:blogger.com" returns nothing for me. Google seems to actively block Blogger searches.

I suspect our days of enjoying free speech here are numbered. It's only a matter of time before Google gives in to its insatiable urge to memory-hole anything on the Internet that doesn't conform to urban-coastal center-left pieties.

Now that you're retired, Ann, maybe you want to look into a free-speech blogging alternative like Substack or (if you're really ambitious) self-hosted WordPress or Joomla, before the Google octopus strangles your page.; ९/७/२४, १:५६ PM
rehajm म्हणाले...: This is a quiet backwater of the internet. For some reason GOogle lets it continue. Some reason...; ९/७/२४, २:०० PM
Hassayamper म्हणाले...: @n.n: Mushrooms are very versatile and really taste great with many spices and herbs

I'd put tarragon first, not last. Salt is indispensable, and a bit of pepper or dill or a light kiss of garlic is often nice. Most of the rest are OK but not necessary. The mushrooms have their own delicate and delicious flavors that shouldn't be swamped with spices. It's more important to figure out cooking methods that bring out the best flavors. Matsutake doesn't like fats and oils, and is better in broths, for example. On the other hand, a lot of varieties benefit mightily from lipids and can be bland without them, in particular morels.; ९/७/२४, २:०४ PM

FullMoon म्हणाले...: ही टिप्पणी लेखकाना हलविली आहे.; ९/७/२४, २:०७ PM
Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: Headline: "Former Obama official defends keeping Biden on ticket: 'Presidency is more than just one man'" (bold mine)

Headline (same news aggregation page): "Donald Trump Says He 'Needs' Project 2025 Group to Enact His Agenda"

Project 2025 is about making sure, if and when Trump wins a second term, it will be more than just one man, unlike the first one. But that is not how the pro-Biden news media is characterizing Project 2025.

The double standard is that brazen.; ९/७/२४, २:२० PM
Narr म्हणाले...: I was out a while ago making a Kroger run and stopped at the nearby Gibson's donuts on the way home. Who should come in right behind me but Jerry "The King" Lawler and two somewhat younger and attractive women.

I was waiting for some coffee to brew and we nodded and exchanged pleasantries, and left at the same time--one of the ladies held the door while we shuffled out. Lawler isn't that big, but you can tell he lived hard--he's a bit wall-eyed and stiff.

He makes three people who I have met that might be considered well known to the general public--Xi Jiping, Ben Stein, and Jerry Lawler. Oh, and I had a nice conversation once long ago with Rufus "Funky Chicken" Thomas. So it's four. Ken Burns. Five.; ९/७/२४, २:३९ PM
Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: BIDEN: "I'm the guy who shut Putin down!"

A couple days later, Putin got up and shot missiles at the Ukraine capital.

What are the people around Joe telling him?; ९/७/२४, २:५० PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: "Althouse did something like what you seem to be asking for, with a commenter that died. She used a code on Google's search bar with the commenters name and shazam."

Just do a site search on Google:

site:althouse.blogspot.com

Begin with that and add whatever you're looking for.; ९/७/२४, २:५२ PM
NKP म्हणाले...: The rule of Lemnity, Hassayamper and FullMoon, I thank all y'all for trying to help me recover what I've posted on this site.

Tyranny does not rhyme with Trump but it might rhyme with Google.

I failed. Probably did something wrong. Wasted enough time. Moving on...; ९/७/२४, ३:२१ PM
rehajm म्हणाले...: The results of that kind of search give me the post where I commented but in order of...what? Relevance according to the search engine?; ९/७/२४, ३:४२ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: "Even Googling "hassayamper +site:blogger.com" returns nothing for me. Google seems to actively block Blogger searches."

Search like this:

site:althouse.blogspot.com hassayamper

You get tons of stuff:

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: For all blogspot blogs, just search this:

site:blogspot.com hassayamper

Your mistake was using "blogger.com" instead of "blogspot.com"; ९/७/२४, ३:५७ PM

I've been here for 20 years and I might be the most prominent blog on Blogger. One of the most, anyway. Why would they want to destroy me... after all these years?

I don't know why you trust other places not to commit acts of censorship. I feel safer here because I'm prominent and because they've been good so far. Plus, I don't want the trouble of moving. I'm doing the same thing in the same way for 20 years. I'm not going to just hop somewhere else on the theory that it's better. I'm into the continuousness here. This is my 7,482nd straight day.; ९/७/२४, ४:०३ PM
NKP म्हणाले...: Thank you, Ann, for chiming in. I gave it one last try.

Maybe I didn't express my query following ".com" correctly. I tried comments, comments/NKP, NKP, my Google username.

I'm sure there's a way and Google could make it easy but chooses not to. I've probably maxed my profanity quota for the day so .......; ९/७/२४, ४:०५ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: @NKP

Try it with quotes around your name. It worked for me:

site:althouse.blogspot.com "NKP"; ९/७/२४, ४:०८ PM
Lem Vibe Bandit म्हणाले...: site:althouse.blogspot.com "NKP" works for me and I’m using Safari.; ९/७/२४, ४:२६ PM
NKP म्हणाले...: Notice to All Hands!

Chrome delivered two recent posts: one on wearing ties and one on gender identity.

Safari delivered many more.

Thanks again to all who took the time to guide me.; ९/७/२४, ४:४१ PM
Ann Althouse म्हणाले...: "If I'm not mistaken, you photographed this same species once before."

On 2 other occasions, I had something people thought were oysters:
