This cartoon reminds me of Terry from Pixar’s Soul and I don’t know why.

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 am about what’s British vs. what’s English.

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, forced if gravity are so strong that time dilation occurs, making the core “older” than the surface.

- Comment on I'm literally just vibing 3 days ago:
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 constantly.
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.

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. 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.

It’s a florida ounce. Takes its roots in the cocaine industry in the 1980s.
A florida ounce is approximately equal to about 25g of mass (on earth), or 25mL of volume.

All (chicken, at least…probably other species too) eggs start out white…but pigments get added near the end of the egg development process.
That’s how my girls have eggs in many different colors.

You stare at her, and she just stares right back. And that’s when the attack comes. Not from the front, but from the side.

Um, there’s a mollusk, see…And he walks up to a sea, well he doesn’t walk up, he swims up. Well, actually the mollusk isn’t moving. He’s in one place and then the sea cucumber, well they… I mixed up. There was a mollusk and a sea cucumber. None of them were walking, so forget that I… There was this mollusk and he walks up to a sea cucumber. Normally, they don’t talk, sea cucumbers, but in a joke, everyone talks. So the sea mollusk says to the cucumber…
With fronds like these, who needs anemones?

Sometimes a monopoly can have so much money that it actually does some very significant amount of innovation. Look at Ma Bell.
The problem is to not let them get so big though. Then you’ve got to break it up and that gets hairy. Look at Ma Bell.
And then they might try to get back together. Look at Ma Bell.
And at the end of it, we might just end up with a duopoly of shit. Look at Ma Bell and Xfinity.

- Comment on Why don;t most of us Americans only need like one foreign language to pass high school? Why not make it mandatory for like 3 or 4 languages?Would that not give us the upper hand when traveling? 1 week ago:
Hahah travel. Funny joke.
In truth, though, a small number of school districts do do immersive bilingual K-12 education. That means the full curriculum is bilingual…around here usually English/Spanish. Not just one class. Usually in tightly integrated (read: mixed-race) communities.

Seriously those starving children in africa owe me a little bit of thanks for always finishing my plate. Or something.

What’s difficult is keeping with it.
My weight has fluctuated from a low of 180lbs to a high of 450lbs throughout my entire adult life.
I know what to do. I know it’s easy to do it.
The hard part is knowing that the second I stop counting, it all comes piling back on.
It’s incredibly discouraging to know that most people can just…live. They eat when they’re hungry. They don’t constantly have a voice in their head telling them to eat when they aren’t. They don’t use sweets for emotional support or stress relief. They can leave food on a plate when they’re full. And they feel full with reasonable portions of food.
Moreso, they aren’t riddled with anxiety whenever their fat ass is on display out in public doing exercise.
I had an elderly woman at physical therapy tell me I’m the biggest man she’s ever seen. You know how upsetting that is? Like, no shit, I know I’m fat. And sure she likely has no filter because of dementia but man it still burns.
