There are usually safe ones as well, just some that might need to be frozen instead of left out.

Fwiw, I always assumed tortillas were just like…flour and water and a bit of fat. Had no idea they had preservatives because I never paid attention to the label until I saw an article on surprising UPF foods in the NYT a few months ago. I’m more careful with my consumption of them now!

Cows and bears. Both put the wumpus on you if your dog irritates or frightens them, especially if they have their kids still with them.

Cut down in it’s prime :(

Will that achieve anything?

Yes! Various countries implement a “traffic light” style health meter that is legally required to be on the front of packaging that also gives a little subtext to say what causes it to be yellow or red (least healthy). So it will say stuff like “excess sodium” or “too much sugar” which actually does work. People don’t even realize that some staples are considered UPFs because of preservatives (Tortillas), or are otherwise unhealthy (too much sugar and preservatives in ‘health’ cereals and yogurts).

This allows people to find staples that do not contain shocking amounts of sugar, preservatives, or highly processed options within the same category. It’s worked when implemented well :)

Wow, if I was a customer, I’d be dropping them immediately even if I didn’t pirate. That is sketchy as hell.

2,000 people is a ton! Sounds like a really good event. Looking forward to their next one :D

Looks interesting, but it will probably need to be way brighter for daytime use.

Eye tracking is a no-go for anywhere with bright snow in the winter time where you need sunglasses, or in the summertime and need sunglasses.

I could see it being useful someday.

More than just climate. Huge infrastructure acts that are helping rebuild our our states. Helping us add stuff like protected bike lanes, too. Capping prescription costs, which is huge.

Massive investments in our economy and R&D, something we have been sorely lacking.

Some queer rights and even some small but humanizing stuff, like letting bi and gay men donate blood like the rest of humanity, and making the bar safer for everyone.

In addition to all the other stuff, like stopping the pandemic, pulling the economy out of a nosedive under Trump, reversing schedule F (think Trump’s version of Order 66) for federal employees who actually keep the lights on and the country going between multiple presidents, forgiving tons of student loans, and curtailing the damage from abortion being revoked where he can.

Not to mention his accomplishments on background checks for guns, pardoning federal Marijuana offenses, and slapping the dogshit out of Russia via our friends and allies. ❤️

Edit: Damn, there’s actually a list of accomplishments. He’s done a lot of good shit even if he’s kind of a bad public speaker.

Pretty sure Iran adopted “Axis of Resistance” already. Least they already know what side they are on.

Really getting sick of people deciding to just like…starting shit instead of focusing on constructive competitions like science or space races to other planets. Why do people feel the need to kill the shit out of each other and subjugate their population whilst climate change is bearing down on us? :p

Work would freak out if I accepted a gift from a client. I’d probably be fired. Yet somehow, this is okay for servants of the public.

Don’t forget to vote this November. We are stuck with these dickheads until they die or retire because we fucked up in 2016 and Trump installed these assholes in rapid succession after McConnell refused to let Obama seat a justice. I’d also really appreciate more of the capped prescriptions Biden has done, paying $35 a month instead of hundreds for insulin. If he can cap some other medications, we will be one step closer to universal healthcare.

As the article mentions, I applud efforts to up-armor existing bike lanes to make them safer against car and truck intrusions.

But we should be pushing a lot harder for more bike lanes that are protected by concrete barriers AND more connections to things like south Seattle, west seattle, and greenlake.

It’s really frustrating to watch massive roads go into places like the waterfront that are just going to ferry cars between North and South seattle. That money could have been spent better elsewhere, building out a staggering number of bike lanes at a much lower cost.

I’ll miss this museum. Wish the Smithsonian bought it out and added it to its collection.

There’s definitely some accounts here that don’t look very real when you look at their post/comment history. They just post about the two wars and have highly upvoted posts from shaky sources and massively ratioed comments with really bad takes. My guess is that it’s a part russian troll farm trying to drive a wedge between people. The account was eight weeks old, too.

If I were you, I’d grab an ebike before tariffs on them go up. It can be a major gamechanger in a city. Saves a lot of money on gas and parking fees if you just want to hit the beach/park/commute to work. Kicking myself for not buying one sooner. Radpower, Juiced, and Aventon have pretty affordable options, and my car has been pretty much left alone most of the spring and early summer.

Grabbed one for $1,200 and have put 624 miles on it in the past three or so months.

Just you wait, these will be iconic and sought after in about 20 years, lol. People will be doing pet projects on them just like the Subaru bugeyes of the 00s. Which people also thought were weird looking, haha.

Tbh, I probably would have started with something a bit less complicated than those games.

Portal 2 would have been a better option, IMO. Something with relatively simple controls and not super enemy-focused.

The headline makes it sound way worse than what happened. Dude is fine, just reopened a surgical wound with some bulging.

If project 2025 gets implemented, he won’t have to worry about voting again anytime soon.

John Oliver made a funny and stomach-churning video on it, which was probably one of the most horrifying videos I think I’ve seen. Reminds me of some of the diseases that cause such horrible organ damage, even if you survive the disease, your organs are permanently ruined. The MILF manor parts were also…interesting, lol.

Yeah, I was on the verge of buying one too. Hearing that made me go back to the drawing board and do a ton more research on what ebikes were more repairable. We really need a right to repair law for ebikes. Most conventional bikes are super easy to repair.
