I wonder what the reactions are of the Amazonians?

I found this one on an image search

Maybe it’s just because I live in an area that has a lot of people with outdoorsy hobbies like hiking and fishing, but I see a lot of people wear Eddie Bauer everyday

I have a relative that owns a Tesla Model 3 because there is no other charging infrastructure in his part of the country and he bought before everyone knew Elon was a right wing asshole. He let me drive it a couple times. If you don’t use the self driving, a Tesla drives like any other EV. Though, I wouldn’t get in any Tesla if the driver intended to use the self driving.

Tarragon has a light licorice taste and is wonderful. Whenever I make a lemon pasta, I include some if I can find it fresh. It’s also used a lot of food in the Near East and Middle East like chakapuli.

I also love keeping chili powders on hand like shichimi tōgarashi, gochugaru, and mala powder.

I use THC to soothe pain. It works really well for that.

I’ve tried THC for anxiety, but it works less well for that. The best thing I found for my anxiety is kava extract. That stuff just melts anxiety away for me and my wife. (There’s some evidence that kava is potentially hard on the liver, so maybe don’t have booze with it)

In addition to changing her position [to opposing bans on fracking], campaign officials said she now backed the Biden administration’s budget requests for increased funding for border enforcement; no longer supported a single-payer health insurance program; and echoed Mr. Biden’s call for banning assault weapons but not a requirement to sell them to the federal government.

“If Harris took a moderate position, she could undermine Republican claims that she is an elite cultural liberal,” Leonhardt wrote. By a “moderate position,” Leonhardt seems to mean banning access to hormone therapy for trans youth—a decidedly right-wing political position that, through misinformed and misleading media coverage, particularly from the New York Times (FAIR.org, 5/11/23), has become more politically acceptable.

It Is Journalism’s Sacred Duty To Endanger The Lives Of As Many Trans People As Possible

The most basic principles of socialism like checks notes letting your employer keep extra value from you by turning down extra money and having to work as a wage slave when you’re 80.

Most employers offer a match on 401(k) contributions. For example, you contribute $500 per paycheck and the employer contributes $250. By turning down this money, you are literally letting the company you work for keep extra money that would otherwise go to you. Fuck companies. Accept the match, so they can’t keep that extra money. You worked for it.

I’m a Marxist and want the downfall of capitalism. However, I’m investing in total market index funds in case capitalism remains the dominant economic system for the rest of my life, because I don’t want to be a wage slave when I’m tired, old woman.

I’m a completely normal girl, feds. I’m not one of those trans people. Here you can see all of my identification to prove it. No, I’m sorry to say I lost my original birth certificate, but I do have this replacement I got in the mail a couple years ago. I hope that’s fine 😊

A linked tweet in that thread says the account was created in September 2022

We are so fucked

According to the New York Times, Kennedy claimed that the worm that infected him “ate a portion” of his brain. Can tapeworms “eat” brain tissue?

SHARIF: Discussions of eating brains are better left in zombie movies than in legitimate scientific discourse. The parasitic infections that impact the brain do not eat the brain. Now, that doesn’t mean that they cannot damage brain tissue. But that kind of inflammatory language indicates a lack of scientific literacy and is pretty concerning.

Okay, but what does it eat to survive, if not the brain?

I agree. I really don’t see where an execution takes place changes the fact capital punishment is legal. It’s not like there’s an article over execution facilities in the US or Russia.

However, deleting is a long bureaucratic process where you have to argue with a bunch of no-life randos. Many editors consider it bad form to delete and reword large parts of an article then nominate it for deletion. This is viewed as intentional sabotage and bad faith, even if all you do is delete the unreliable sources. This article touches on this crap.

Well, I tried to remove as much bs as possible and make things more neutral without raising any red flags for the editors of Wikipedia. Hopefully, that’s a bit better and they don’t revert it.

The Democrats feel entitled to vote of young left wing people, but don’t feel the same entitlement towards swing voters and right wing voters. That’s part of why they try to appeal to the racists instead of the people who should be their base, but aren’t because of “healthcare pls ”
