  TIL that pears aren’t common in grocery stores? And people may not like these delicious fruits

  Still, that’s a two man job

  Indeed.

  It’d be good father/son bonding!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Alabama is forcing incarcerated people to work at hundreds of companies, including McDonald’s & Wendy’s. Unionizing is illegal. The state takes 40% of wages.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Could also explain why prisons are such a big industry in the US

  Holy shit… I never knew. I could enjoy that, something I’ve never been able to do with T pain

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Probably helps that I'm happy to listen to whatever genre⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t know, the drums and guitar is pretty sick in that song.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's fine⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh wow, I didn’t even know that was a thing. Looking it up that might be the fix. My computer can’t keep time or date which is one of the side effects of a dead CMOS.

  Thank you kind stranger!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's fine⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Me too! I hoped it would fix it from turning itself off when it isn’t plugged in. But it still isn’t working, so some other connection is naf.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's fine⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh for sure. I rarely play new games because I don’t have the time and because I own a bunch of older games I haven’t got to yet(The exception being BG3).

  I will say older games are often graphically better in memory. Fired up Dragon Age 1 last week and it looks so old now.

  I don’t know what you read, but I just learned that racoons are showing early signs of domestication.

  Tell my wife a funny childhood story about me my parents - “wait, why aren’t you laughing? Stop looking at me like that!”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's fine⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My five year old laptop can still runs most games, (although it’s getting quirky) and my four year old cellphone is going strong. I see little reason to update and I hope to get another 3-5 years out of them, barring major hardware failure.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tips⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Years ago I had a coworker ask how I was able to travel so much because we made the same wage.

  I was just like I don’t do drugs or buy drinks at a bar. I don’t own a car and my phone is cheap and paid off. I kept my expenses as low as possible to do what I liked.

  Given how expensive renting is now I don’t think my frugality would have helped as much as it used to.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tips⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure, but plenty of people buy things because they want to feel wealthy. I have people in my life who buy fancy cars, holidays, and furniture on loan with bad interest. Instead of saving for an item, they pay too much for instant gratification.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do some Americans "feel ashamed" for being American even when it's not their fault?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Canada has voted against the populist right for the last decade. And each time the Conservative party chooses some one more right wing. And each time they get a bit closer to winning.

  Trump galvanized people last time, scared them away from the right. This time he seems to be inspiring the right wing politicians, and people live it.

  I don’t know if we can hold out much longer.

  Doesn’t quite have the ring to it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can we have a healthy life only with fruits or fruits and plants combined alone, and if not why?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s about the level of processing / how it’s done. If the company is doing what you can do at home, like preserving beans through pressure canning, it’s not really an issue. More processed beans, beans in tomato/molasses take more processing and additives.

  Look at the ingredients. If it’s beans in water it wouldnt be considered ultra processed.
