  • The third digit for the diastolic blood pressure suggests they expect a number over 100.

    That would be very bad.

  • Sweet: Instant oatmeal - can add fruit, cinnamon, honey Fruit salad Smoothie - can hide a few greens in there, thicken with peanut butter, protein powder Frozen waffles - can add fruit

    Savory: Toast/bagels - can use butter, peanut/nut butter, make a sandwich with deli meats Omelette - many options, cooks quickly Frozen hashbrowns and peppers and onions - can season, add spice

  • If he’d killed Hitler like he tried to his mom might not have died in 9/11.

  • The nice thing about smaller communities is that it’s more like going to the pub than speed-dating; there’s an increasingly familiar regular crowd that feels like community, rather than a focus on quick content, hoping for a spark of interest.

  • And those communities haven’t a fraction of the drama and hostility. Mainly because they’re small and new, but that’s why you move to a new site, anyways.

  • Disney’s Robin Hood, more like.

  • The perfect is the enemy of the good, and demanding a politico-savior will leave you wanting forever. Keeping your hands clean betrays your selfishness, not your commitment.

    Violent revolution that results in a population moving left is so absurdly unlikely as to be dismissed, and any planning that depends on it mere daydream to salve frustration.

    The liberal and the centrist who together elected a moderate in the face of a reactionary have done more to save you than all of your theory has done to save them.

    And I wish none of that were true.

  • Can you describe what it feels like? Is it more about the pain or the temperature? Brain freeze to me is far more about the pounding pain with quick onset.

  • “To sign up, please complete this simple route problem: there are seven bridges in Königsberg…”

  • Hey, sidenote: you guys know you can wash your dishwasher, right? There are specialized cleaners for it. If you keep getting residue or small pieces of food left on dishes, you can check if the blades are clogged but also cleaning your dishwasher might help.

  • Oh you should check Stardew mods out! There are plenty of them that are very lore-friendly without being game breaking.

    I can’t speak to the others, though. Kinda avoiding Factorio because I know I’d lose months to it.

  • You can add a couple hundred more hours if the games have a healthy modding community.

  • And go to bed early. Don’t spend two days fucking up your sleep schedule: that’s MY job.

  • Although ticket prices for the fundraisers ranged from $50 to $20,000 and the highest sponsorship package of the sold-out summit was $50,000, when asked about how the organization is funded, the group claimed that t-shirt sales were its "biggest source of funding."

    Well-funded ones!

  • “I just think it’s important to oppose these people with words, you know, like a real marketplace of ideals,” said the hand-wringing liberal while the neo Nazi nailed a “NO QUEERS HERE” sign outside the marketplace.

  • “How do I swipe left on swiping”

    I’m guilty of that…

  • What did they use to make the bun black? Squid ink?

  • SPLC's description of Moms for Liberty.

    Here’s a quote to give you a taste:

    In 2021, a Tennessee chapter of Moms for Liberty was the first to file a complaint under the state’s new anti-CRT bill. The chapter took issue with a book by Ruby Bridges on her experiences integrating a school and also one on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., which they called, “Anti-American, Anti-White, and Anti-Mexican.” In their opinion, these books focused too much on the negatives of history and would prefer that their children’s schools have books that focus on heroes like Clarence Thomas, Morgan Freeman, and Condoleezza Rice. The chapter specifically took issue with Bridges recollections of a White mob yelling at her on her way to school and pictures of firemen hosing Black children in the MLK March on Washington. Instead, Moms for Liberty recommended using The Making of America to teach history. This 1985 book by conspiracy theorist and John Birch Society supporter W. Cleon Skousen portrays slave owners as the "worst victims of slavery" and claims that although the Founders wanted to free slaves, most slaves were unprepared for lives of freedom.

    Read the entire “In Their Own Words” section to get an idea of the way they think.

    Unfortunately, the article here isn’t enough: it briefly mentions one of the members citing Hitler and banning books, but this really isn’t an introductory article to the group. I could see people walking away from this thinking that they’re overbearing and out of touch, but that’s not what MFL is; they’re worse than that.

  • Should you draw a picture if a more popular artist has already made it, or should you do what you enjoy?
