For sure. A pinch or pinch and a half will do ya. 1/2 tsp and you’ve gone too far.

Probably a lot less safe (and harder to aim) if you don’t use the truck. Also unlikely they get all the way down unless you mine it in wheel shapes (increasing labor and also, luckily, danger).

None of it should factor. At all.

The distinction between the candidates was clear enough:

1. I will lower your taxes (for billionaires), I don’t like immigrants, and I will say all the stuff you think and the lefties made it bad to say. Also if I don’t win I’m going to jail because, for enough money I will do whatever you want (for Russia, Elon, or anyone else).

2. I am an actual qualified candidate.

There was no choice. It was taxes and fear and tribalism with a special sprinkle of election interference attempts around the horn.

She was appointed? So what? Elect her because she’s a better choice, then fix that problem.

I leave it sit for 23 seconds, then hit it with 1 Tbsp of baking soda and plug the hole.

You’d think that, but believe it or not: blood or potatoes.

So the three little astronauts go into the Martian house of blood, and the big bad says “L̶̛̲̗͕̞̍e̸̢̛̼̦͔͋̚͝͝t̸̩͎̺̙̗̙̃ ̶̝̖̣̃̌̚ḿ̵̡̻͆͘ę̸̛́̀̌ ̶̡̙̩͆͂ͅi̷̢͙̓̈́͛͂ń̴̬̩͔̳̱”

You shut your whore mouth.

That is both true and less “demonstrative”.

I’m surprised that that is your opinion.

Put that in your thatwhich and eat it ;).

I’m surprised that that is your criterion.

No, I was not addressing the person as “rainbow hair”. I don’t know anything about her.

Because I don’t like the way it looks? I’m sure she’s a happy and fun person, but I don’t like the particular hairstyle.

It sounds like you don’t have to make ANY choices which must be pretty nice: it certainly makes it easy for you to judge other people!

I will absolutely take the easy road on getting non-food items we need twice a month to spend time with my kids and my wife. I would rather amazon than Alibaba, and I would rather do either than give up an hour of my time to shop something dumb like super glue with two kids under four.

I am also doing the best I can, and I’m sure you mean well, but you sure sound like an officious dickbag.

The more I see this picture the more I dislike rainbow hair.

It’s not fun and it’s not surprising. Billionaires are generally cancerous and they own a lot of shit. If you can avoid them all, more power to you. I guess it’ll be my fault if trump gets elected.

I’m not flexing. It’s a fact. Everybody makes choices and I am making mine. Do you own a car? And if you do, do you put gas in it, earth-raping heathen? Do you water your lawn? Have a gas lawnmower? How about solar panels? You ever take a bath instead of a gallon shower? Buy electronics sourced from countries with weak labor laws? How about sleeping with a fan on at night or participate in wish recycling without consulting your local center?

I’m sure if we dig enough you’re shitty in some way too, yo. Maybe don’t be a supercilious dirt hat.

Counter argument: no.

For sure Amazon is predatory. For sure the services are overpriced. For sure they are killing Mom and Pop stores.

But you know what? I shop there for the same reason I shop at a Meijer or a Target or a Payless. Everything I want, one place, unified customer service, and it just shows up at my door. Probably 80% of my purchases are grocery delivery from Meijer and Amazon for basically everything else. Returns are no questions asked, service is fast, and selection is great, I just try not to buy amazon basics if I can help it.

Shipt, Uber whatever, GrubHub, etc etc delivery services that are supposed to solve the same problem are all fucking garbage. For sure I’m a corporate sellout, but I have a shitload of time to spend with my kids and my wife instead of fucking around with other services or driving around town and I’m not sorry about it 🤷

Edit: and with prime I got ad free movies, in home delivery, faster shipping, audible, and who knows what else besides. I won’t shop at Walmart so I’m probably a hypocrite, but I’m a hypocrite who is happy with the service for the money.

My kobo Libra 2 is way, way, WAY better than any of the Kindles or nooks I’ve owned. So good.

Edit: idk who Amy is but she doesn’t belong here.

Just eggs cooked hard in a skillet.

I guess I just don’t see it that way. Ive been to some “sellout” 100 person venues that do a fine business (for the business, the band doesn’t get a huge payday) and I’ve never thought to myself “wow, most people would pay money for this”. They were decent entertainment while I drink a beer.

Most people are just not that talented, or they are decently talented but disillusioned about their probability of success. My ex BIL went to school and did a four year degree for timpani. Not to teach it, to play it. Do you know how many pro timpani positions there are in the country? For good orchestras, it’s fewer than his graduating class in college. Accessible or not, there is just not wide appeal for “pretty good”. I’d be more likely to pay people to stop singing or playing guitar while I’m eating dinner than to buy an album. I’ve also got a friend who is, IMO an extremely good and qualified actor who has been trying 10 years to make it in NYC. He sells real estate. EVERYONE there is an extremely good and qualified actor.

Not everyone, and not even most, can make it in B.A. professions. It just isn’t a good choice of career or study unless you are exceptional and by definition, most people are not. A B.A. degree is like going out for the NFL: basically nobody makes it.
