This is why my chickens terrify me. They used to be 25 feet tall, just a handful of dozens of million years ago.

Fucking murder machines.

Self-proclained “real men” define themselves by their masculinity. I’m merely trying to change their definition of masculinity, because I think that’s easier than changing them directly.

Bullies don’t need a reason. They see someone weaker yet more respected than themselves, they think that they can take some of their respect by force.

You know how there’s always a bunch of spelling and grammar errors in scam emails?

It’s because they want to weed out the intelligent ones because they will catch on fast and thus they aren’t worth the scammers time as a mark.

Those pauses? Same thing. He gives you a few seconds to think about what he said. If you can’t figure out that he’s batshit insane in those few seconds, you’re the mark target audience.

Alex Jones did/does the same thing while trying to channel his inner Howard Beale for the climax of each monologue.

So the antichrist is a good thing then? Is it like antipasto?

Seems you do understand the hate for her.

What’s the inverse of astroturfing?

You know what isn’t a problem with privilege? Using that privilege to project the voices of the un-privileged. Speaking truth to power.

Damn right. And why more cis white men need to show up at Pride. And Women’s Marches. And BLM. A real man isn’t one who punches down, it’s one who extends an open hand.

I thought all Germans were Dutch but not all Dutch were Germans. Was I way off?

Ok now I’m more confused about what’s Dutch vs. what’s German than I was about what’s British vs. what’s English. Or even what’s a turtle, if most languages call them tortoises.

I wanna see a D&D style alignment chart of politicians (or even just presidents) that shows good/evil and intelligent/incompetent now.

I’m really curious for who different people would rank for “evil genius” and “true neutral”.

I’m also very curious what the different major LLMs would spit out…that would probably reflect heavily on their training and master prompt.

I read this while I’m sitting, hunched over, on an ice pack, at physical therapy for sciatica.

Thank you for the reminder.

I think (and IANA astrophysicist) that they are saying because of the density of the sun, the forces of gravity are so strong at the core, that time dilation occurs, making time at the core pass more slowly than time at the surface. Over billions of years of existence, that adds up.

Hide yo kids. Hide yo wife.

I started wegovy pill last month and have lost 30lbs so far, roughly 8% of my starting body weight.

I’m a fat fuck though, and my first pounds always come off easy. Plus there were a couple days I just didn’t eat because I was throwing up and/or diarrhea constantly.

Vomit seems to be punishment for eating bad food (or over-eating, which is easy to do from old habits but also the medication makes you feel full sooner, and you learn to set smaller portions quick)…probably something greasy. Choose the carrot or risk the stick.

Diarrhea just seems to be a fact of life. One minute I’m pissing out my ass, an hour later I’m having the healthiest looking stool of my life. Important to remain hydrated, I guess.

The starting doses are $149/mo with mfg coupon and no insurance. Higher doses I think are $199. I believe both are cheaper than the injected variety.

As much as I hate the fact that I have to pay out of pocket for any medication…I’m fairly sure my grocery bill dropped by more than $149 since starting.

60 eggs all at once, or 5 batches of a dozen each?

As I understand it, you should be able to pile the eggs on in there, they shouldn’t move like they would in a full rolling boil.

But at the same time, I had been warned not to put all of my eggs together.

But also don’t look at our advertisements.

It’s pronounced OWN-ya. Not to be confused with the singer Enya.

You have to keep your tongue at the top of your mouth while you roll through the O-sound.

White boys have more trouble with this than rr.

I made boiled (well, steamed) eggs in my instant pot and they came out perfect…

Put eggs on trivet/riser. Add 1c water. Lid on, sealed. 5 minutes high pressure. 5 minutes off and sealed. 1 minute venting. 5+ minutes ice bath.

The ice bath is the critical part.

The shells slide off.
