I came to the comments for this… I was like “huh… Odd… It doesn’t say that they are a republican. They aren’t a Democrat are they!? Surely if they a Democrat the is story would be everywhere! Can’t be, but better to check and be sure.” haha

In the United States what is pictured are not called pancakes. Those are Crêpes / crepes. Add a levening agent (baking soda) and flour and ya got American pancakes.

Want to make them better and more uniquely American and not so Fastfood American?

Use sourdough starter Or

Carefully stir in (to not make it flat) 7up or a not too bitter beer replacing some or all of the water Or

Replace some of the flour with fine corn meal, add rosemary and a pork product (eg sausage, cooked bacon cubes)

Books or audio books on the subject of cults and conspiracy theories help to both understand this and eventually know what to do about it.

Unfortunately, you arguing with them about it most likely did only damage and no good. Stop. It will only make your parents more right wing (and you left) then drive you both crazy.

Here is a good place to start if you like: Hivemind by A.Montell Cultish BA S.cavanagh

Hit me up if you want more. But it’s a complicated subject that can’t be explained in a short lemmy post. If you want any other advice, OP, eatsomeveggies.

The poster actually says “we protect your kids”.

Trump does not want Greenland, never did. He also doesn’t care about the gulf of Mexico or Panama cannel.

It’s just a distraction and negative media overload method that he uses. And you know what, it works. Here we are talking about this and not the serious things.

Calm everyone. Trump does not want Greenland, never did. He also doesn’t care about the gulf of Mexico or Panama cannel.

Jein. It’s not as bad as OP makes it sound, and I’ve never seen a 10 let alone 12 organic eggs in Germany for 2€ but I also live in the city.

What you’re looking at here look like organic (bio) eggs, likely from a very expensive bio-store. Typical prices for eggs in Denver for organic eggs are 7.49 for 12 or .62¢ a egg at a store comparable to REWE. - Non-bio eggs get down to 4.99 on sale for 12 or .41 an egg.

Here at my REWE in Köln organic eggs are 3.39 for 10 or .33 an egg. So they are actually only twice the price for organic which is due to the killing of millions of chickens because of bird flue.

Eggs are now 33$ in Denver guys!!

Na… Just kidding… We don’t do click bait here. And eggs aren’t really 10$ a dozen most anywhere.

Meh, clean it first and it’ll probably be alright. If if have issues stop using it.

An educated public is great. A highly educated public, all the better. In my eyes there is no over educated, but rather jobs should not be below certain people to do. One on the best bakers / pastry chef’s I worked with got his first degree in chemistry (which he still loves chemistry and does projects as side hobbies).

I’m sorry, what? Are there pro Chinese EV people? Like, they seems like fine cars and are cheap… But everyone knows what they are getting with them. It like buying a 10€ hand knitted fast fashion sweater; you got to know some poor slave kid made that shit and simply not care.

Is this not standard Chinese building practices? I saw a docu on this when building infrastructure for the silk road projects. It is not OK in any way, and should be stopped, but should also be expected.

I see where you are going, but you probably should focus less on the guns. Most Americans don’t regularly shoot guns, even those that have them. A whole lot also don’t own any. But lead is all over in shit like water pipes. Other heavy metals and chemicals are present in higher levels than allowed elsewhere. Also full metal jacket is much more common than it used to be which reduces the lead particles when shooting.

Same, this number seems way too low. Even from my skewed perspective of a “old guy” - fastly nearing 40.

No. Clearly no.

The specs required for these games is low, fortunately. Cheaper gaming laptops typically go for twice your max budget. Looking for a used laptop is the way I would go with the budget. I have the specs for fortnite below, but keep in mind, these are the minimum expectations not what you should get. I would search for something with 1.5-2x these specs if you expect your kid to have the laptop for more the 3-4 years and the demands of future games.

Is that obsolete or obscure (in German speaking areas)?

For me things were not in meters or feet but hours driven. From my home town the nearest stoplight was 1.5 hours away by car. This is also the closest chain restaurant (like McDonald’s or simular). We had a school bus, but other than that no public transit. The next town over (15 minutes) has a supermarket.

There is a lot of good books (or audio books) I could suggest. This has been also a interest in mine. The reasons are different and also the same. Many of the top comments touch on some of the points.

Hey Pete,

What helped me with the same problem and others is to act like it really mattered,cause it does. For me I ask myself “if I were to get 20 million $£€ if i did this perfect for a year, would I.” then try and act like it. If I were to give you this money, you would not forget your bags at home. You would always have them when needed and in a quality that wouldn’t rip easily. Act like that. Then it will quickly be a habbit that you won’t have to think about.
