Are you from the generation of email chain letters that asked you to scroll down and it’s be neat ASCII designs?
- Comment on 3's grip looks the most comfy 4 days ago:
Scrolled far too long to find even a mention of Zebra. Uniball is the intro to good pens, but Zebra is where you land.

As it should be!

left over spaghetti
!!!
But yeah, there’s that whole thing with blood sugar and leftover pasta, I dunno, I’m not a scientist and I have a bad memory, but it’s basically healthier on day two.
- Comment on I've done it again... 6 days ago:
The last thing I want is to make spaghetti and still be hungry after I eat it. Whole box it is.

I was in the Marines and I had to buy some of my shit on my own, so yeah, agree 100%.
- Comment on Having a baby? Use this one weird trick! 2 weeks ago:
I mean, sure, maybe in the ensuing lawsuit they could be like hey, her doctor said it was cool, but it doesn’t change the fact that there’s a baby being born on an airplane in transit. Nobody wants that, airlines will shut that down, and it’s not discrimination, it’s just a good decision.

I’m curious what the difference between how America went about giving slaves citizenship versus countries in Europe. There’s the obvious difference of birthright that’s an issue today, just curious why America ended up here and Europe did not.
- Comment on Having a baby? Use this one weird trick! 2 weeks ago:
Jus soli is conditional, and doesn’t include hopping on a plane and just visiting a country, the birthing parents have to have established residence in the country. There’s also citizenship granted to children born to parents who are from whichever country it is.
None of these represent what we see in the US. No country in Europe grants automatic citizenship to children born of foreign parents.

Sure they can. “My doctor said I can!” Well, they say you can’t. Why would a doctor’s note get you on an airplane?
- Comment on Having a baby? Use this one weird trick! 2 weeks ago:
Literally zero European countries do it. It seems to be in the Americas only, and Chad and Tanzania. The concept that this is some human right apparently only applies to he US.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 3 weeks ago:
Nailed it on the head. I think also that you need to include that Canada’s relationship vis-a-vis trade with China will be affected by tariffs the US is placing on Canada, and same with Mexico. I think much of everything is from the viewpoint that China is a bigger problem than Russia at the moment. China is also recovering from some economic turmoil, and one way to do so includes expanding their reach, and so the intent is to limit China in other areas.
- Comment on 1987 4 weeks ago:
I was born in '87 and I distinctly recall eating a lot of canned veggies growing up. I’m sure it’s what my mom grew up (in Newark, NJ) eating, and so it probably just passed on down when she was a young mother. I’m curious if canned veggies were just the rage at the time or if it was so because access to the fresh stuff wasn’t as available.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 5 weeks ago:
Ha, I should’ve mentioned that you definitely won’t. It seems to paint this damned if we do damned if we don’t picture. But it at least paints a picture, versus what can at times feel like this great big unknown. It may also shed some light on some of the motivations for what’s happening. I dunno.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 5 weeks ago:
My brother sent this to me the other day and I gave it a watch. It feels pretty unbiased (although I’m uneducated), and seems to have a more macro, zoomed-out view of America and just nations on the whole. I thought it was pretty interesting and it helped to put some things in perspective.

Don’t worry, maybe they misjudged the size of the asteroid and 2032 is it.

I saw Deadmau5 and he stopped to play Rocket League mid show one time. That’s as close as I can get to the prompt.

You won’t hear me disagree.
- Comment on Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this? 1 month ago:
I think MAGA represents to Republicans what progressives like Bernie and AOC represent to Democrats. Republicans were able to reimagine their party into a form that isn’t just going to follow the status quo that, like you said, has led to a stagnant existence for average Americans over the last 50+ years. And stagnant is probably a nice way of putting it, since buying power has essentially disappeared, on top of wages barely moving.
So Trump comes in, he says drain the swamp, and you hear that to mean the whole machine, everyone who, for the last 50 years (and some folks have been involved in that government for a good chunk of that 50 years, just perpetuating that status quo) has allowed the rich to get richer at the expense of the working middle class.
And so you toss on your blinders. You’re not necessarily a bigot, but you believe social issues are a distraction from actual problems (i.e., ones that affect you directly), and you vote in a way that you hope will better your life. It’s hard to blame someone, especially someone just exhausted from grinding through their shitty life, for thinking about themselves. It’s not the right way to think, but I get it.
- Comment on Gemini wont talk about Bernie Sanders 1 month ago:
Dunno if your typo was intentional or not, but all I see in this thread is that somehow a typo is a way to bypass whatever block they have on discussion related to political figures. Which is bonkers. The great minds at the Goog somehow missed a pretty obvious workaround.

The game came out in 2008. I can’t believe it was that long ago.

L4D was a phenomenal game. I wish I could go back in time and get a group of four of us together to play the way we used to.

This diet was easy with a health dose of amphetamines. Wine took the edge off.

PedEgg. I get older and I just get these calluses, and it’s like a cheese grater for your feet. It’s terrible, but feet calluses no look good. I see a podiatrist and he said it’s these damn high arches. I just think it’s being in my late 30s, unfortunately.

Look up PedEgg. I swear it’s not some obscure porn.

You won’t be allowed to die. You will work and you will accrue “retirement,” which is time you get to live after you stop working. They will keep you alive for as long as you owe the company, and then you will be allowed to cash in your six months of retirement.

140 introduced me to plenty of good 172. 140 shows are inundated now, need to go to less popular EDM events to find people who are more interested in the music and less in being where the crowd is.

Kaladin is a G. Currently on Oathbringer. I enjoy a good fantasy series, just hate when I run out of books.
