Barry Goldwater, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, Newt Gingerich, Mitch McConnell, and now Trump (and arguably many others along the way) have been choosing self over country and intentionally breaking safeguards for longer than most of us on Lemmy have been alive. It’s indirect violence. But it’s violence regardless. And they’ve gotten away with it so far.

My cousin said the exact same thing.

They don’t know shit, but they still vote with such confidence. It’s maddening.

A little bit yeah. Really just all food is a lot more expensive.

I used to not have to check my bank account. Now my savings account is slowly shrinking. And it’s almost entirely because of the cost of food.

Inflation sent me from adding to savings each month to pulling from it instead. Just hope my wife or I get a decent promotion before the savings run out I guess.

Somebody get this guy 4 grains of rice so he can feed his family!

Fuck the original recipe. I’ve never had better Alfredo or Carbonara than cooking the sauce myself using garlic, heavy cream, parmesan, and a bit of cornstarch slurry to help keep it from breaking.

Either that or we can give the cream version a different name and acknowledge it as a better dish than traditional Alfredo.

Double time half power gang. It’s so much better. I can wait an extra 90 sec for it to be evenly heated.

Because this is the Internet, I’ll be pedantic and say the interface where each cord plugs into the next probably adds some resistance as well.

So, 50 cords 1 ft each plugged into each other would have a higher resistance than the same wire at a single 50ft length.

I doubt it really matters in the practical terms of your answer and the question being asked though.

My puppy loses his shit when I aim the leaf blower towards him.

This week I actually got to use some old cranks I had saved from a bike I replaced.

Ok I’m not actually going to ride those cranks. I just needed to fit them on the bike to confirm the other cranks were bent and not the bike frame itself.

Now I’m going to buy new replacement cranks and keep the old ones AND the bent ones for some reason…

And we don’t seem to be in a timeline that’s handing out best case outcomes.

I’m waiting for the record go fund me numbers this guy gets for his defense fund if they do find him.

Things with a lot of water evenly distributed. Potatoes, steamed vegetables, stuff like that. I’ve read it’s good for making caramel too but haven’t tried that one.

I agree. For now …

It’s even the optimal way to cook some things, and people still avoid it.

Looks like they each have their own fence. The neighbor has a taller fence. You can see the top of OP’s fence near the bottom of the picture.

People often orient wooden fences so the nice side of it faces inward towards their yard.

Side note: Sometimes people make their fence with every other slat on the opposite side, so there is no front and back. Both sides are identical. I don’t like how those fences look. It just makes both sides look bad, and you can see through them when approaching from an angle.

I thought we called them communities, but honestly I like sub-lem better. Let’s switch if we haven’t already.

Doesn’t make you dumb, but it could make you seem dumb like pronouncing the “L” in salmon.

Yeah but there are also norms.

Could you say “Merry Birthday!” Sure. Should you though?

Same thing here. It works. It just feels off.

Can’t believe you held it down. I did it with chocolate milk and barfed it all out like 15 min later. Still cold. Still tasted like chocolate milk. I’m confident it was the least unpleasant puking experience of my entire life including the parts that haven’t happened yet.

Whistlin Diesel broke his truck waaaayy sooner than expected because of the uni-body.

Worst part about being on Lemmy is having to tell your parents you’re gay
