American foods are ultra processed crap designed to make the population overeat calories in search of nutrients. Even our produce is less nutritious due to corporate farming practices.

Obesity is more tied to food insecurity than food security here.

Someone send me the link when they start auctioning these off. I want to turn one into an RV.

I was honestly disappointed we didn’t get Spaceballs: The Sequel

I’ve had egg and pineapple but not on the same burger. I’m really not sure how I’d like the taste but there’s something aesthetically pleasing about the egg yolk and pineapple ring fitting together.

I’m actually a bit surprised, the parts for the 2 are what I remember being complained about lol.

I’m into it.

Iirc when i was looking the price had dropped due to the 5 coming.

How’s the replacement parts infrastructure holding up on the 4? Genuine ask, I mostly shitpost ✌️

The way I use tech I’m going back to 10 year old thinkpads, mp3 players, dumb phones and polaroid cameras anyway.

Could I get a fairphone that won’t suffer from obsolescence after a few years? I swear I was just looking at the 4 and deciding against it because I heard people were having issues sourcing parts for older fairphones.

Can I get a forever phone where I can upgrade and repair module by module until I’ve thesiused and frankensteined every piece into a whole new phone?

And then carpet the floor. Between the two, guests probably won’t stay long past the first bathroom break.

I’ve watched documentaries where they touched on it. I don’t think it’s a crackpot theory at all.

I used to have a friend that gardened (tbh it was weed) and he did a lot with mixing nutrients for his babies, commercial fertilizer doesn’t put nutrition back into the soil or the plants in ways we can benefit. They’re only designed to benefit the plants in ways that are profitable for them.

The most satisfying food I’ve had came from my relatives gardens that had healthy compost piles. On our own, my parents used chemical fertilizers and the results were lacking.

Real phone in my bag hotspotting for a burner I pull out in public is how I did things when I was paranoid.

I remember 50% vegetables, 30% carbs, 15% protein, 5% other from somewhere.

Another place (especially USA) we’re falling down is snacking foods, like prepackaged chips. They’re designed to make you consume more while not providing anything of value to our diets. And not so surprising, the wanting to snack constantly goes away when I’m able to cook and consume food made with real whole ingredients. Even jarred sauces or canned vegetables are lacking /something/ vital.

Frozen veg and a bag of potatoes has become a cornerstone of my cooking.

Certain produce like tomatoes I try to buy the multicolored heritage versions. Even produce is suffering from enshitification with the modern versions losing flavor and nutrition in favor of appearance, shelf life, ship ability, etc.

Anyway, I went on a high rambling rant. Sorry, I’ll go hit my pipe again before i start some aluminum origami

Re: what are trans employees supposed to do.

At one point the path was documenting disparate behavior and taking up the lawsuit path, but I’m pretty sure my employer could write transgender on the reason for termination line and the eeoc won’t touch it under this administration

I used to work for goodwill, people donated paraphernalia all the time, I once got a grinder full of weed. I think people preferred donating something instead of throwing it away even when we couldn’t sell it.

NGL, I’m trans and I thought it was a before/after before I read anything 😭🤣

The President in particular is very much a figurehead, he wields no real power whatsoever. He is apparently chosen by the government, but the qualities he is required to display are not those of leadership but those of finely judged outrage. For this reason the President is always a controversial choice, always an infuriating but fascinating character. His job is not to wield power but to draw attention away from it. On those criteria Zaphod Beeblebrox is one of the most successful Presidents the Galaxy has ever had - he has already spent two of his ten Presidential years in prison for fraud. Very very few people realize that the President and the Government have virtually no power at all

If you’re not willing to touch your own butthole, you shouldn’t be having sex. It works for both generally and in the moment.

I was debating if I’d be willing to take a free cybertruck, your comment reminded me i could take it straight to the scrap yard

I used to love eyebuydirect, especially the replacement warranty. But their quality is lower and needs the warranty while Zenni is less expensive for higher quality 😁

The lather isn’t what gets you clean anyway, they even add stuff to make the detergents lather more because of the perception that it gets you cleaner. Any lather at all with a proper soap says you’re using enough soap to get clean.
