Since when is chipotle ultra processed? Can we be a littler more responsible about how we talk about things so that we don’t make the fight harder since just convincing people that ultra processed food is shitty.
Not if everything is the max then there it’s all just noise that’s gets harder and harder not to just dismiss
It’s just hilarious they don’t understand a bay leaf, but as Randal said that one time, they are one of today’s 10,000
Finding out how things get flavoured is a great learning experience when you are 5 or going on 85
Can we be a little more compassionate and kind to each other, even the people that will never see us or know how we respond. Just makes you a more pleasant and wonderful person
- Comment on How come in American classrooms they make another language an elective. Why not teach our kids as many languages possible that way if we go somewhere we will kind of have uper hand? 3 days ago:
West coast Canadian who is proud of Canada’s French history but can’t speak French.
Language needs to be used in daily life for a lot of people.
I’ve met countless immigrants who can’t speak very good English after being here for years because they just don’t speak it at home, only when they need to put in public.
Which is no different than me learning French from grade 6 to 8 and not being able to learn it, though I do understand it more than I expected that one time I was in Quebec City for 2 weeks (absolutely lovely city, and the Thai soup I had from Don Vegan, the cities first vegan only restaurant, was the best Thai soup I’ve ever had. DELICIOUS! But I digress) It’s just a symptom of not needing it in your life because I’m just not around it. I’m not a super outgoing person either and I’ve never been good at getting a conversation going so my own hurdles are certainly part of this, but I’ve worked with a lot of immigrants and I think in spite of my bias, it’s pretty accurate.
America isn’t much different in that regard, unless you are on a southern border there’s significantly less opportunity to have other languages be part of the fabric of the average americans personal lives. Not impossible but just a lot less likely

The best Thai soup I ever had was from a place called Don Vegan in Quebec City. It was absolutely amazing. Still love a good beef dip though

… Because they have seen it in person and know how different factory farming is to ranching properly?
I assume from reading their comment, I’m just guessing

I was curious if there was anything inside it for at least a decade. I have no idea why I’ve never looked it up. I even subscribe to Wikipedia.
Thank you
- Comment on Is there anyway I can screw around with ICE? I need a new hobby I come from a long line of immigrants. If i send my home address and phone number will they actually come and deport me to choose a cntr 1 month ago:
So join ICE and starting shooting american ICE officers. You have immunity to kill US citizens apparently if you do so might as well use it for good

Try to find a “European Deli”
They always have salted licorice of various kinds, at least in my area.
They are not for the faint of heart if you didn’t grow up with them
Hope you find them!

I wait to see if they figure out that I’m just pointing out 2 worlds they missed saying at the beginning of that phrase to make it resemble what they intend.

It’s like the grocery stores that have digital price tags on them that they can adjust at anytime. They totally going to do surge pricing and other bullshit. I complete expect oh you picked up that item? Purchase just gotta up as soon as it’s touched

That’s a great idea for a store front. And great for buying for those people that are hard to buy for, cause they have to figure out how the whole collection works lol

I would assume because it’s related to educating someone about why optical lenses can give an incredible amount of detail that digital just can’t compete with. But that’s just a guess and that might not even be enough for this forum

I’m also curious now
- Comment on Libraries are cool 2 months ago:
Warehouse ops manager here, we call our process scheduled counts & invoice counts.
We have about 25,000 locations for parts. We count a few sections each day for our scheduled counts, and we count the entire place 3 times a year by doing it.
That helps us find and address things that may be misplaced lost or just wrong but that haven’t been an issue for about 4 months.
Alternately we have a process that we used to count every location we picked parts from the day before.
The combination, when done correctly and not just fucking the dog, definately keeps you good.
I’m sad we no longer do the daily counts as it makes bigger problems than being able to check on incorrect orders within a day or 2 and not months later when no body can remember anything.
I might actually like working in a library now that I think about it
