A lot of the original versions of the brothers Grimm stories. For example Cinderella, one of the sisters chops off bits of her feet so that she can try and get into the shoe Cinderella dropped. I think the Prince only figured it out because she's dripping in blood.

He was all into the conspiracy theories though, even in news radio!!

Im partial to just a bit of lemon myself. That sauce looks like it could be nice but put it on the side and preserve the crisp!

I didn't say you would be screwing the boss. What you are doing by tipping is letting them away with it. I understand the expectation, I think it shouldn't exist, I think it's wrong. I also refuse to take a job like that which I believe IS the way to change it.

I really really don't agree with this. They have already been screwed by their boss, you are choosing whether to Bail the boss out or not. The dynamic will never change by continuing your stance, you'll just keep on bailing out the rich guys.

It's not the articles that are horrifying. It's the words and actions of these politicians that should have been a political death sentence. About half of the US seem fine with lies, racism, and homophobia. Even name calling was considered uncouth and it's just mud flinging now and they love it. That's what's horrifying. It wasn't the journos who did this, it was regular normal people.

It's inherent in the two party system I feel. It's analogous to that analogy about the two guys on the beach selling ice cream. They start at one end each but in the end they move closer and closer to one another in the middle of the beach or where the most people are. So the Democrats only have to be just "better" than the Republicans to look good and they definitely want to take some of the votes closer to centre.

That being said, they have FAR better stances than the Republicans on many things.

I can fit the majority of my little finger up my nostrils. My nose might be slightly larger than normal and my hands are about normal. It just fits up there with a little twist.

It really helps choosing the things that work best to freeze. For example chicken breasts suck when reheated, it's the nature of the cut of meat. It's so easy to dry out chicken breast. Additionally, I never freeze starches unless they are "drowned" in sauce. Freezing a bunch of fries is not going to lead to a nice meal later but freezing a stew which has potatoes in it works. Minced meat is very forgiving, same too with chicken thighs, drumsticks. Anything with a higher fat content and already has sauce.

Good Examples: I'll freeze Bolognese sauce, no pasta. Cook the pasta on the day. Curries without rice. Stews. Soups. All of these with fattier cuts of meat and with sauce covering the food. Maybe it protects it. All of these can even taste better from the freezer somehow.

Bad examples: lean steak, pork chops, vegetables. Essentially, anything which has to be cooked almost perfectly to be good. Fresh fruits are gonna suck texturally also but they will be absolutely perfect in smoothies, sauces, syrups etc.

That kinda sucks. I'm an odd one myself in that I'm extremely interested in history and as an extension war since it has been a huge part in shaping.... Everything. I am simultaneously very anti war politically because of the horrors of course but I do also want to think about strategies etc. Are there any good communities that discuss this without just descending into who's side people should be on. For example I'm on Ukraine side but I can totally enjoy thinking about the question "what do Russia need to achieve to take region X, why is it important to them, what's the timeframe and what equipment is needed". I have read/watched plenty about war strategies up to WW2, maybe a bit of Vietnam etc. Nothing modern really.

Pull it out and leave in on the mayor's lawn. It'll be disposed of in no time. You know, even just deface it with a chisel.

Yeah there are already a few splits. The Aldi equator, the Weißwurstäquator.

Fucks sake. I just looked this up. Is it a requirement for a GOP appointed judge to be a sexual predator, looking at you kavanagh. Any others?

They are protesting because Tesla want to extend their factory and chop down a forest to do so.

I saw a comment on here I think which said that a big problem in parks which have bears is that it's really difficult to design a rubbish bin which is simultaneously too difficult for the smartest bear to open but also easy enough for the dumbest human. These types of anecdotes make me believe that more and more.

I like to turn that one around and say: nobody says on their death bed that they regret spending so much time with their kids.

I recommend doing it about 30 minutes before sleep. My sinus will continue draining for a while after doing it which is harder for it to do if I'm lying down. Good luck.

I think loads of things got better but advertising just got worse and worse. It's everywhere now. The Internet used to have no advertising. For live sports they have screens on the side of the pitch which constantly change the ads. There are sometimes ads superimposed (computationally) on the pitch grass. Sometimes they make the viewing size of the screen smaller so they can show you an ad around the edge. Or the worst, they just have a banner at the bottom with ads scrolling. Sports jerseys/vehicles etc are more and more cluttered by ads. Obviously the big change in the opposite direction is with streaming vs classic cable but even now streaming is trying to ram ads back in there. As an adult for me Mobile phones have always been available but we're talking pre Smart phones. Smart phones are just another place that I look that has ads and older phones didn't have ads. They had shit screens of course but no ads. YouTube, more and more ads. Podcasts, loads of ads, there used to be none.
