For ants, it probably doesn't get more special and important (other than being queen).

- Comment on How do I turn fresh tomatoes into pasta sauce? 2 weeks ago:
I've never made a tomato sauce specifically, but ime with sauces - water is the enemy in the final product. So be sure to cook it a lot to get enough water out to make it nicely thick
- Comment on We can all agree on this 3 weeks ago:
But you HAVE heard of me
- Comment on Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions 4 weeks ago:
iirc smoke machines actually produce water as fog, not smoke. But i could be misremembering
- Comment on Drop your unpopular opinions here because c/unpopularopinions is filled with popular opinions 4 weeks ago:
My unpopular opinion is that /c/unpopularopinion is a garbage topic for a community, and it amplifies bad takes because even if people refute it in the comments a lot of people just read titles of posts and never look into the comments

I have never encountered this situation. I literally am not even sure what situation it's describing

- Comment on So unfair 2 months ago:
I think that was a particular brand that some people started to use as a generic name like kleenex
- Comment on So unfair 2 months ago:
Yes, but also don't fucking smoke where other people have to smell and inhale it if they don't want too. That part is NOT what all the previous generations fought so hard for
- Comment on Complete lunacy. A toaster... really... a toaster? 2 months ago:
And instead of paying 20 bucks for a toaster, these smart toaster allow you to spend several hundred on it instead! I just looked it up, and this isn't an exaggeration. The prices i saw ranged from about 200 - 500 dollars
- Comment on There was a time when people had to deal with all of these being separate 2 months ago:
Young people today are increasingly choosing to have separate dedicated-purpose devices. And that's probably a good thing. It decreases distractions, lets you focus on what you're actually trying to do, and makes you less addicted to your phone, and avoids the always-connected evils that come with it
- Comment on Interesting how if you live close to something famous like the pyramids or the NYC skyline you just take it for granted. 3 months ago:
I lived my whole life in nyc and i try to imagine what it would be like to come from a smaller place and see skyscrapers for the first time. I can never really imagine what it's like

- Comment on Put your seat back or no? 3 months ago:
Except that would alter the space of the person behind you
- Comment on Put your seat back or no? 3 months ago:
I assume his "now" is a typo for "not". But obviously that's just an assumption
- Comment on Put your seat back or no? 3 months ago:
Agreed, each person should have their own space that no other passenger can alter. If you want to recline it should be within your own space. For example the seat butt should slide forward, or you should get an angled pillow to put behind your back. Or alternatively all seats should be reclined 100% of the time and you should get an up-slanted pillow for your back so you can sit upright.
However it's done, everyone should have the exact same amount of space that no one else can alter

The crew didn't ask him not to, OP asked him not to
- Comment on Haiku 3 months ago:
Sure that's fine. I guess more broadly the rule should be that you can't alter anyone else's space
- Comment on Haiku 3 months ago:
Airplane seats shouldn't have a recline function.

Beck is that you?
- Comment on Literally exactly how it works, too. 3 months ago:
Nothing to agree or disagree with, you're factually incorrect. The observer effect has nothing to do with whether someone's eyes are looking toward it or not. It basically just means when a process is happening and anything external occurs to it then that will change the way the process is happening.
