  We’d call him Chef MIMAL to help memorize where the states were.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨At what point do you stop calling the years "two thousand and X" and start calling them "twenty X"?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  People may have also switched some years retroactively. I definitely said two thousand ten back then, but would say twenty ten now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Eat lead⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to argue for creationism, but this argument sucks. Lead can be produced by fusion in stars, not just through decay of heavier elements. But even that’s besides the point, since if you believe some entity created the universe, surely said entity could have created whatever ratio of lead to uranium they wanted.

  (Not so fun fact: the environmental impact of leaded gasoline was discovered by trying to estimate the age of the earth using the radio of lead to uranium in uranium deposits, but the pollution from leaded gasoline was throwing the measurements off.)

  Heck, in the US I’d almost say all politics is political violence. It seems that anytime you advocate for nonviolence here you’re called naive at best, murdered at worst. Plus, our whole society was built in blood.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I just want to make cookies :(⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Pfffft as though we’d be so sane as measure flour by weight instead of volume

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Outrageous!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah for me they’re usually sold as “each”, so the bundle is just proportionally more.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pencilvania⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Can confirm, definitely thought the two words were connected growing up there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can’t see anything other than cockring⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ngl that was the first word I tried.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I can’t see anything other than cockring⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You can re-use letters in the NYT Spelling Bee game.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just speak normally⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree, it would be cool if it smelled bad when people told time wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Workers of the world unite! Happy Labor Day!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  That would be Labo_u_r Day.
