I'm not native, but have lived in Philly. The bell peppers bother me. Wiz, American, provolone, or Swiss all are pretty common in my experience. As is no cheese at all, which this appears to be. But then it's not a cheesesteak, it's a steak.

No, that's a person who always believes they're sick. You're thinking of hemophiliac.

I've been running opensuse for years now. It's great. Welcome aboard

It Could Happen Here is often talking about what's going on that week in the world. I wouldn't try to listen to their whole backlog, but I usually catch an episode or two a week.

Behind the Bastards is great. Since I found it (Summer 2020, I'd reckon), I've listened to most of what has come out since.

Cool People who did Cool Stuff is a sort of spin off of btb. Deep dives on people and movements who were resisting the bastards. It's only been going on a couple of years, so the backlog is more manageable if that's your thing.

I listen to Past Times on the Dollop feed most weeks. The Dollop is another deep dive history podcast. On Past Times, they read headlines and articles from different newspaper every week. Usually from the late 19th through early 20th century, but they've gone as far back as the 1600s.

Anything by Jamie Loftus is great. She's mostly done short run things on a single topic. She's on the Bechdel cast, too which I listen to occasionally.

You might enjoy The Deprogram, which has a less daunting backlog.

Before covid lockdown I made my living as a street performer, doing magic shows for crowds of strangers. In that very niche community, "Fat hats!" is a common farewell or replacement for "good luck". In this case "hat" refers to the donations in the hat rather than the actual hat.

Sounds like they have been.

On your phone? As someone who lives in emacs and has done aoc in the past, I'm impressed

I spread pesto inside my grilled cheese sandwiches

There's not a complete sentence after the period, so no.

I hadn't seen the spam myself, but I think it's to do with this.

I've heard that the issue for some cats isn't that they can see the bottom, but that their whiskers hit the side of the bowl and that's uncomfortable.

I had the same question, and decided that the pour over is the closest in the image. I've been an anarchist a long time anyway.

Hasbro was founded in 1923 and has a history of over a hundred years.

Yep, that's how years work.

He wrote a decent number of books aimed at kids. There are the Tiffany Aching books in Discworld for a start, as well as non discworld books like Only You Can Save Mankind or the Bromeliad books.

I wouldn't stop a 10yo from reading any of the discworld books if they're enjoying them, mind. There's lots to find funny anyway, and we all had to start building our "reference vocabulary" somewhere.

Amusingly, there's an issue with the app I use for youtube that means I'm stuck with a dubbed version in a language I don't speak.

I also miss his presence on the internet, but part of what drove him away was the reaction to him promoting a block list that targeted trans folks

The discipline is "mathematics." It's really not unreasonable that in some parts of the world, it got shortened to maths.

Had you?

I use keepassdx which has an extension for working with Firefox. I use syncthing to copy the database file between my phone, laptop, and backup location.

Canadian here.

I said "sorry" (I have no idea why)

I may have a guess for you.
