I cook everything from scratch and I eat a ridiculous amount of fruit and vegetables.

I’m just saying, I know my body, and it seems to get really upset when I don’t give it animal meat. I have tried to transition to chickpeas and all different kinds of protein sources, hemp, my body just knows what it wants.

And really, 150 g of meat? Explosive diarrhea? You don’t need to exaggerate so much LOL

In regards to alcohol consumption, I’m glad you raised that. I’m also glad it’s going away.

I kind of follow these things a little bit, a bit of a nerd in this regard lol

I’m 51, and now I’m 10 years sober, so I have a longer view, and I have my own multiple viewpoints now that I’ve gone from a drunk to a sober dude.

I have definitely noticed a massive shift in attitudes from the younger generations now, compared to when I was young.

It seems the generation just reaching legal age now has almost no interest in alcohol whereas when I was young, drinking was almost a given. It was just what we did at every opportunity and all the socializing happened on Thursdays and Friday nights where we get mutually blasted at various locales.

And our federal government here in Canada has finally clued-in how hopeless it is to generate revenue with alcohol sales and taxation. They ran a study called the Canada Alcohol Deficit which showed that when you factor in all the social ills of alcohol consumption, we lose money on it by like billions. I can’t link it because I’m fooling around with mobile, but it’s an easy search.

But I think that attitude is across all the generations now, even the people who were hard drinkers in my group are not really interested as much. Our provincial government saw a precipitous drop of alcohol sales, and panicked and expanded sales across our province in so many ways.

So yeah I think it’s on the way out the door for good soon. People don’t want to anymore when there’s better and less destructive mood-alteration, and the government has seen the futility of booze.

I tried to go completely vegetarian but my body just goes on revolt. So I limit myself to around 150 g per day. But I would be down with eating lab grown meat. I mean, it’s just chains of amino acids turned into proteins right. Making that has to be an order of magnitude less footprint than growing and harvesting cattle.

Drive through speakers/mics that actually work

Get computer duster spray, mask off the area around the mole with duct tape, invert the can and spray the propellant which will freeze it and substantially reduce its size.

edit: clear the area of hair and oil, use a hole-puncher to make the duct tape mask. I’ve done this for warts, facial blemishes, those raised lip things… etc. Clean the area, use basic sanitation practices. Don’t pick-at or hassle the layer that scabs over and replenishes. Don’t go hog-wild with the freezing - try a smaller amount first and give it a week to see how it responds. That propellant is no toy

Trying to explain to renters that despite what the noise bylaws of the city say, those have nothing to do with how much noise they are allowed to make. They are allowed to make a reasonable amount of noise that does not disturb anybody at any time of the day or night.

Start by remembering that nobody gives a flying fuck about you, just carry on like nothing happened.

Really, nobody cares about you or anything you do on this platform.

Nobody cares about me.

It is not taught in detail because they got their asses kicked.

SteamDB makes Steam actually usable

Fyi capsaicin is an oil so if you want to wash it out of your mouth, the correct thing is to swish your mouth out with oil, not water. I’m not kidding.

Homemade spicy dipping sauce for pizza bones

You can literally just take a can of tomato sauce (crushed tomatoes) add in a little bit of salt and pepper, some paprika or other heat. Little bit of oregano, thyme, basil, garlic… And for the love of god at least a heaping teaspoon of sugar.

Let it simmer on low for a good 20 minutes, and you are the star of the show when you get there. It doesn’t even need to be served hot, there’s something very nice about a cool sauce that still has zip and flavor

I don’t want to crap on you for your recommendation, I do have Skechers myself

I’m not sure what it’s like in your region, but the quality of Skechers has dropped to the point where you might as well just burn your money

In some ways it is crucial, being able to talk about pop culture stuff is as essential to small talk as talking about the weather. Some people see these as trivialities, but it’s an essential part of human connection.

And I feel it everyday, I have zero interest in pop music, zero interest in pop culture, I couldn’t give two shits in a tin bucket about movies or shows.

It’s going to make me sound like a douchebag, but I like plays, theater, art, jazz, human expression. And most people don’t and I feel the disconnection continually. I don’t think repeating jokes from the office qualifies as a personality or sense of humor. And most people do.

So to come back around, it’s essential to basic connection with other people, but I find it endlessly frustrating.

It was over 20 years ago so you’ll have to forgive some lapses and memory for me, but we rented a car and we were in houston, austin, san antonio then we drove south to do some exploration and hiking.

Maybe I’m being a little dramatic saying I hated it, but there was so little for me to enjoy it felt like a massive disappointment. The little culture I did bump into seemed very forced & disingenuous. So many of the people I met were superficially nice, but hayseed ignoramii

The absolute obsession with genocide and colonialism completely repelled me from Texas and I will never go back. I hated Texas more than any other trip I’ve ever been on in my life, with the exception of New York city.

Yes

Meanwhile I hear it used correctly maybe 5% of the time

Seems like we all have different experiences with this word

In order to get a correct hit from a bong, the chamber must be small, filtration heavily limited, and the water should be slightly warmer than body temperature.

These guys rocking three filtration chambers on a bong that’s bigger than a tower speaker are wasting their life and their money, and getting a very poor experience relative to what’s possible.

Penultimate must send you into spasms as well
