I think they’re more regulated there, like the only flavor is tobacco, their use is prohibited in certain places, etc

Kinda curious how they picked these. Not that any of these are great, but most pg-13 horror movies are so forgettable it seems the author just overlooked them.
You’re probably just goofin, but maybe chill with the person just asking for reading material.
I’m also not a big fan of quizzes to figure out political stuff, but everyone starts somewhere.
An American who spent time stationed in Kenya (they never could tell me why we have a base there, go figure) told me about a group of navy seals that decided to try to put a t-shirt on a baboon once. Apparently they all ended up in the infirmary.
America isn’t sending the brightest.
Agreed, besides discussing history the other context to use the term luddite is “I’m a luddite.” They were right and if a new group emerges ready to burn down data centers and tar and feather tech oligarchs then let them have at it.
Pretty sure I stopped playing after an early boss fight.
The good stuff:
The bad stuff:
Enjoyed my time with it overall though. Keep meaning to come back to it and never do for whatever reason.
I also never got around to MGS 5 even though I really liked all the other metal gear games I’ve played, something about a more open world is vaguely intimidating I guess.
I had a coworker like that! His going away meal was sushi lmao.
When asked why he didn’t say pescetarian he said he just didn’t like the word (?). Whatever the hell that means. Guess he wanted some kind of vegetarian street cred lol.
Maybe it’s just cause of where I’m from, but other than the lettuce and tomatoes I’d order and enjoy that. At least something is edible on the menu, which is better than basically every restaurant near me.
Am I missing something? Is the sauce dairy 🤔?
Watched that b/c it was posted here last week. Incredibly disappointed they stopped making that series, it was really getting good.
There are some lol, United 93 and Nic Cage’s World Trade Center were released in 2006.
Also, ::: spoiler spoiler Apparently this Robert Pattinson movie has a 9/11 plot point? ::: wtf?
Would that even work? Intuitively (I dont remember anything about chem) I would guess that you could take a portion of a tums to get the same effect as alkaline water, but wouldn’t be able to achieve the opposite. If you drank an enormous amount of alkaline water such that your stomach acid volume is negligible then the ph of the solution would just be the alkaline water ph, right?
I’m a habitual lurker on forums, but the few times I’ve posted/commented here have 100% been better experiences than any other site I’ve used. It’s nice to use a site that doesn’t make me feel disconnected from reality for seeing the obvious and daily indignations millions-to-billions are forced to live through just because the currently dominant economic model insists this is justthewayitis. Its really validating knowing i can trust my own eyes. The only other place I’ve been that is similar is irl organizing, which I’ve not been able to do for some time now unfortunately (and, long story short, had locally become dominated with very electoral and liberal ideas, which was incredibly disheartening).
It’s great browsing a site that can both validate these frequent observations of systemic failure while continuing to challenge my own worldview. Before browsing here and lemmygrad I had felt like an “internationalist,” but in the last few years here I’ve started realizing how big the imperial core blinders really are. I don’t necessarily know what to do with that yet, but it’s something I’m working on and probably ought to just discuss on here at some point.
Plus, I always appreciate the way federated users are treated when they cruise by to spout bs imperial core takes (usually dressed up as if they’re subversive in some way lmao).
I’m trying to post and comment more because yall seem pretty cool, I just usually don’t have much to add.
Definitely depends on the area and a handful of variables, but I feel like there’s an environmental argument to be had for frequent good deliveries to households.
It could be scheduled in a similar way as waste management and households just put in a recurring order that they could update every week with one off needs. Heck, it could even get fancy and offer to let you pick your produce at the door or van. It could be door-to-door or block-by-block with assistance for people that need it.
If this was a socially supported and accepted model for getting basic goods then a non-small amount of car trips would just not happen.
It would be really interesting if someone with a background in this and access to relevant numbers could see if something like that would be beneficial, or could think outside the box for other ways to make spread out metropolitan life slightly less environmentally shit (with the caveat that significant structural changes still need to happen obv).
Exactly, dollar general tends to be in poorer neighborhoods but is expensive as shit. At least around here, they only get business by being the only place to buy basic necessities.
There was one a block away from a homeless encampment a few of us were working with, and some of their basics were 50-100% more than the neighboring parts of town. There is a little public transport in this city, but definitely not adequate for most people to be able to use it for errands. Of course people in these neighborhoods are always running out of money, Dollar General is picking their pockets.
Unrelated, but the ice box outside was not only locked, it was just straight up off. This was during an extended heat wave. A worker mentioned that corporate stopped sending ice because it had been getting stolen. Just overall a shitty store to have to deal with.
Oof, thanks for the heads up!
Oh, this 100% happens. I’ve been getting texts and calls fopre-approval about 6 different area codes since applying for preapproval.
Doesn’t that imply that the control group are the people riddled with plastic 🤔?
He seems like a really good dude. It’s easy to tell you two had something special. I’m really sorry for your loss.
The first dog my partner and I adopted passed 2 years ago. He was similar to your buddy - he always wanted to do what we were doing. He had a few favorite people and hated literally everyone else.
Honestly, he was a real shit head that caused us a ton of anxiety (soooo aggressive despite our best efforts), but he was our shit head. I don’t miss the anxiety of walking him but I miss everything else, even the sometimes-scary stuff. He was full of surprises and kept them coming until his last days.
Sorry for hijacking, just been thinking about him a lot the last few days.
I wish there was something we could say to make things easier for you. I’m sure he felt all the love you have for him every day. He sounds like a hoot.
Rest in peace, friend.
Weird. Was there a source claiming there was one?
