You might have just invented community service volunteering…?

I’m going to watch it anyway, so there.

But as a brain cleanse, try little Emma. It’s not amazing, but it’s cute as hell. Itty bitty humans smaller than sentient racist livestock.

They looked cute at the time 🤷🏻 and I didn’t know they would be that bad… I knew they were temporary, though…

I got 5 dermal anchors back when I was 18. They have been nothing but problems. I’m down to 3, 2 having been ripped out this past year… I’ll let the other three reject whenever they decide to do so (I’ve been preventing rejection for almost 20 years and I’m tired of it). I’d have to pay to get them removed, which I’m not doing.

Don’t get dermal anchors.

Yeah because the economy is totally great right now and finding work that pays the bills is super easy!

Even when the economy was good, it took months to find new employment if you have to have any sort of standard (like minimum income above the minimum wage threshold). Most people right now can’t afford to be out of work for months.

Maybe your area was good, maybe your skill set is in demand, maybe you have zero standards or requirements to support your family, whatever it is, your experience is not at all the standard, and it’s much more likely you just have survivor bias. That’s when you say “it was easy for me, it should be easy for everyone!” While everyone else is struggling.

At least they don’t have to worry about sunburn because that can’t possibly be a comfortable or easy position to maintain for long periods of time…

Imagine a sunburned anal sphincter… shudder

One of the later red dwarf episodes has this. The ship gets upgraded to m-corp, which is pay-per-everything, and subscription-based, and as registered crew lister is the only one impacted. He can only see and hear things from m-corp.

I think you give them too much credit. As long as it doesn’t actively hurt their numbers, like x, it’s just part of the budget.

I haven’t had eggs since they were $2/dozen, so zero in like 8+ months, but when I have eggs (starting chickens and quail) I’ll be eating probably 2-4/day. When they were cheap I was averaging 3/day, including baked goods and such.

I really don’t eat much meat (can’t afford that either, but my digestive system doesn’t do well with a lot of meat anyway), and my mushroom cultures are taking foooooooorrrrrreeeeeeevvvvvvveeeerrrrr, so… need protein somewhere.

Featured in the… super amazing movie Waterworld (1995)

This misses the most important part.

Every other part of history is crammed just before the 1900s, as a big lump sum. Who cares how long ago the 1600s are, it’s basically the same as the 1900s, right?

If you request the desktop version it shows it fine. I’ve been using that workaround for a long time now, because every link was saying I needed to log in or use the app or whatever.

Which is wild considering the spice trades of the… (according to the internet, prehistory through modernity, so that’s a thing…)

I have to assume that 1950s housewives were so thoroughly drugged up that they couldn’t tell the difference…

I know that they made everything in jello/aspic because gelatin was formerly a luxury, like sugar and basically any spices, so they went a bit batshit when they got cheap access…

No, but it also isn’t calorie-neutral, or calorie-reducing like fad diets claim…

Not a veggie in sight, so your whole digestive motility was based on alcoholic diarrhea. (Been there…)

So fashionable to shit yourself in public in white dresses.

Not if this was during the stretch where masks were super hard to get and everyone had to figure something out for themselves…

I’m a fan of pineapple, red onion, and black olive. The black olives provide the salty kick you’d get from the meats.

It sounds weird, but it’s an absolute win.

Ungh we have a similar thing around me for a used car company… just absolutely obnoxious commercials (that run way too fucking often) made very very poorly by the people who own the company and have an absolute gob of money… like they could hire better (and likely pay a lot to stage that shit to look low budget) and choose not to, because stupid people fall for the “Joe Everyman” bullshit they pull.

Air fryers are nothing but small convection ovens with fancy pre-sets. I’m a bit mystified that people think you can’t use them for anything other than greasy breaded foods.

My air fryer has a thermometer probe attachment and came with roast pans because it’s made to do everything, including whole chickens, roasts, or steak. (It’s roughly the size of a microwave)

Yeah, with this I’m rethinking launching an educational video channel, and will probably end up just sharing my info via blog (are blogs even still a thing?)

Which is disappointing, honestly, because the info lends itself to a video medium, but… meh. My safety is a lot more important than sharing info.

I feel for anyone out there who already has easy-to-locate pics out there… and I hope the people in their lives tell them about this so they can do what makes them comfortable.
