  But this doesn’t give much more income to the government. Even if $3 Trillion more dollar circulated, disregarding job market dillution and lack of skilled labor, then the GOP defficit adds about a trillion per year and this would only generate about 15% taxes on those wages and other wealth transfers or only 450 billion.

  Also, that 300Tn number makes no sense because each of 4.5M 18 year olds would have to generate $666,666 revenue.

  FR, earlier some dude tried to shame me in a comment section about something I said in a different comment section, I straight up replied with a link to it and a quote. Yesterday a dude threatened to dox me and I said “come and fight me”.

  It’s almost like they expect us to reverse our statements and apologize or some shit. Nope. I say it again.

  The real trick to making a good banana bread is not to use overripe bananas at all, no, it’s to use bananas frozen and set to thaw overnight (on plate so it doesnt stain the countertop)

  2 cups flour 1 cup sugar 2 eggs 3 banana 1 stick butter 1/2 cup sour cream 3/4 tsp baking powder 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp salt 2 tsp Vanilla extract

  All ingredients should be room temp, but eggs cannot sit out for longer than an hour. You can set the butter out at the same time as the bananas.

  Grease a muffin pan with generous amount of coconut oil. Cook 25 minutes.

  Optionally add chocolate chips, cut fruit, or walnuts.

  You’re putting the cart before the horse. Drugs cost money, rich people have money, and that’s why rich people do drugs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the best Linux GPU?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The problem with nVidia is that they still don’t support any real open source use of their cards, instead they deigned to notice the Linux crowd and gave one pittance of crappy closed-source drivers for them to figure out and only on select models.

  Nope, I’ve seen it grow on overpasses, too. Some plants just make due with minerals and water

  The effects of gravity have been observed, the cause itself has not. Prevailing hypothesis is gravitational waves which are being experimented on as we speak.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There are no observations of dark matter and few to none theories on how and why it exists. The only indication that it might exist is that our math doesn’t accurately predict or simulate how celestial bodies are moving, there are other theoretical explanations such as a better understanding of gravity or a larger celestial mechanism just outside of the observable universe supplying an external force.

  If you stipulate we must accept Dark Matter as the one true answer then you must also accept any hypothesis regardless of evidence, which is stupid.

  TLDR: You’re stupid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Dark matter has never been proven to exist.

  That waffle thing sounds chewy and bitter, idk if I’d try that.

  Easy dinner bread, focaccia

  Dough:

  • 3 cups flour and a little extra
  • 1 cups water and a little extra (I recommend distilled or filtered water over tap)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (I don’t trust Italian brands) or unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp salt
  • Choice of Yeast: either 1.5 to 2 tsp of Active/Instant Dry Yeast from a brown glass jar or you can just use a fistful of sourdough starter.
  • Optional Spice Mixture: 2 tsp total from a mixture of 2 parts garlic powder (not salt), 2 onion flake/powder, 1 rosemary, 1 thyme, 1 oregano, 1 parsely, 1 sage

  Wear gloves, mix all ingredients by hand. Repeatedly flatten, press fingers into, roll up, and repeat until dough is mostly homogynous, smooth, and with slightly glossy texture and very little stickiness. If the dough is stratified and not smooth, then its not enough water. If it’s too sticky, not enough flour. I appreciate having a second person available to add flour so I don’t have to remove my gloves or spread dough on utensils and cups.

  Place a wetted smooth cloth such as a cheesecloth or other kitchencloth over the dough. You have to rise and knead the dough twice before shaping on a pan with parchment paper and thin coat of oil. Depending on your choice of yeast it will take different amounts of time to rise. Instant dough can be kneaded every 30 minutes and then shaped on pan should double in size after about another hour. Active is every hour then two hours. Sourdough starter varies from strain to strain but it can usually be left overnight before shaping and then rise for half an hour.

  I personally like to fill this bread with mozzarella and tamed jalapenoes, like the more traditional focaccia, by spreading it out during shaping, covering one side, folding and pulling the edges over to keep it shut. It also goes well with curry or with beans and corn.

  Preheat oven to about 400F.

  For a thin crust, beat an egg with a small amount of water, maybe a tablespoon, and apply the egg wash to the risen dough and every 10 minutes while cooking. After about 30 to 40 minutes when the top crust of the bread becomes a dark color, not just golden brown but dark, prepare another different wet cloth. Remove the bread from the oven and place the wet cloth over the top for 10 to 15 minutes.

  You can skip the egg wash and second cloth, and the bread will actually last longer without spoiling when it has less moisture. Breads and pastries can be safely frozen and thawed, as well, but I recommend against refrigerating because it will cause the moisture in the bread to condensate and spoil.

  No, they have to want it.

  Unbaked Bread is a yeast fungus building a house out of glutens, all of which very slowly expands to fit it’s container. You can shape it a lot of ways.
