They also still sell the fried apple pies (maybe shorter, though), and their ice cream machines aren't always broken.

Almost all fast food chains in the Philippines has fried chicken with gravy and rice, even Burger King. They're competing with Jollibee's menu.
"McDo" is their nickname, like "Maccas" in Australia or "Mickey D's" I guess. The "Chicken McDo" is what they call their fried chicken.
They also have a "Burger McDo" which is their budget burger, a patty (maybe different from their regular patty) in a plain bun (no sesame seeds) and sauce.

It's a hamburger steak (a burger patty or 2) with a peppery mushroom gravy over rice.

Oh I was wondering if it was a clone or a regular evil twin.
Everyone on this ship got in there either by fraud or nepotism. Of course all the important people think it's important to be in the important people room.
This show almost stumbles into being an amazing social commentary on corruption in governments and corporations.
Biggest surprise is that the sex therapist influencer is actually doing the job she got dragooned into and is actually good at it, and she hilariously set up her sessions to look like she's going to sex them better even if they're just going to talk. It's not even the bed, it's everything else she's doing. And then it's just a counseling session.

It would have served them better to not include any attempts at seeming like they're using any science at all and just technobabbled everything.
I had decided they have the magic artificial gravity but that the Steve Jobs type forced them to have spinning parts and domes and fake spin gravity. Because skeumorphism. A Steve Jobs type would totally add those.
I lasted until last week's hallucinations episode. Maybe I'll try again later.

The worst thing is they pepper in attempts to show they pay attention to science like it's a hard science show only to completely disregard that point specifically.
"Oh what about solar sails to push us away from its path? What, we're too far from any suns!"
then later
"Oh, wait, the asteroid is a comet, you can tel by its tail!"
Comets only have tails if they're near a sun.
And nevermind all their inconsistent stuff about gravity.
Establishing the spinning is required for gravity and then... they have gravity on the bits that don't spin. And on the bit that spins, they walk where the ceiling should be and have domes implying they'd be bowl shaped if the gravity was working correctly.
Plus, they're under thrust! They're ignoring thrust gravity, too.
Also, where do they get their seemingly infinite supply of oxygen anyway? They have a leak and suddenly, the air gets refilled just by being to locate the leak, not by actually plugging the leak.

Now it feels like the overhanging plates could accidentally be tipped off the table by a stray knee or hip.
But I only feel that way because it would totally happen to me.

Reply to comment by NeoNoireWerewolf in Paramount’s $1.5 Billion Write-Down Is the Bill for Peak TV Coming Due | Analysis by flowerhoney10
Then MTV hilariously cut its runtime, created a new program they hoped to promote to the demo, so they put it between RuPaul's Drag Race and RuPaul's Drag Race Untucked.
This made it so the new show can be easily seen as to blame for stealing Drag Race's runtime, maybe making people want to watch it even less when some of its cast already made some Drag Race fans not eager to watch it.
So... made Drag Race shorter and noticeably missing segments, made people have to wait for Untucked, put a person of questionable popularity among the audience in said show, and made the show look completely to blame.
And then nobody wanted to hate watch.
So... that was a great move on MTV's part.
(Also, made a Teen Wolf movie without writing a script first, and without one of the core characters.)

Fried pea snacks are great. Some of them are also coated like peanuts.

Not OP, but that's definitely tofu. I think they use firm tofu in kimchijjigae.
But while I'm here, this isn't the dish in the post, but I do have a tofu dish I think you can try from the Philippines. Tofu Sisig is a non-vegan one that I have tried but this Vegan Tofu Sisig looks good, too. Might not even need mushrooms.

I guess it's pretty interesting to see a 1942 walis (broom) that seems to be a thicker walis tambo with a heftier handle instead of walis tingting seemingly for outdoor use.

Walis tambo are usually for indoors, and are smaller/thinner.

I think the last time there was a pit sweat LPT, someone mentioned that you're supposed to put anti-perspirant the night before to give it a chance be absorbed into the sweat ducts.

I think maybe that's sugar peas/snap peas/snow peas or as I learned from watching Uncle Roger's review of Jamie Oliver's Thai Green curry recipe "Mangetout."
I believe the quote was "If vegetables taste like sad, mangetout tastes like terror."
