I don't know why we ever thought 2 people needed 2000 sqft in the first place. Before the postwar/boomer era, houses were more often multi-family, or at minimum, homesteads were multifamily. I think single family housing has only exacerbated the loneliness pandemic. I’m glad to see we’ve been reversing course, even if the leading factors aren’t ideal.

Well, this is a step in the right direction from “wiping an entire civilization off the map.”

Heard crank that by Soulja Boy today at a town funded kid’s event today. Only very lightly edited. You could clearly hear “Superman that Ho!”

I don’t think most parents batted an eye. Whoever the DJ was clearly got away with it.

We have the second one already, we just call it lobbying.

It still bewilders me why we are even having this conversation. The guy tried to overthrow our government. The government of the people, in accordance of our constitution. If that’s not the definition of treason I don’t know what is.

Democracy Dies in Darkness indeed.

A general rule is if it has pores instead of gills, you’re probably in the clear.

Except for that one in Europe, that shit will megadeath you.

In all seriousness, the general rule I’ve heard for foraging wild unknown things is:

• cut it open and rub it on your skin, wait an hour, if it gives you a reaction, stop here.
• touch it to your lips, wait a while, if it gives you a reaction, stop here
• touch it to your tongue, wait a while, if it gives you a reaction, stop here
• chew a bit and spit it out, wait a while, if it gives you a reaction, stop here
• swallow a small amount, wait a few hours, if it gives you discomfort, stop here
• if you’ve made it this far, it’s likely ok, do so at your own risk tolerance

Roots are generally OK, particularly if you have access to double boil them.

For mushrooms:

• pores are generally safer than gills
• don’t eat it if it’s bioluminescent
• don’t eat if it oxidizes quickly when you cut it open
• don’t eat it if it bruises blue or red
• learn how to detect what a bolete is. Boletes are generally safe, unless it breaks one of the rules above
• Slime: Just say no.
• make sure there’s not a mushroom growing on your mushroom. Double the mushroom is not double the fun.
• learn what a destroying angel looks like, even when it’s young. Appreciate it from a distance, but give that fucker 5 feet of space at all times.

I am by no means an expert. I’m just a rando guy from Appalachia with some wild ass Russian buds and we do some funky shit down here. Take everything I say with as much trust as you give to anyone on the Internet.

When in doubt, take it to an expert and even then, consume at your own risk tolerance.

Because it's fore-fathers ya dolt! Do I have to explain everything?

I also appreciated this particular nugget in the article:

While Harris has not personally given birth, neither has any other occupant of the White House.

A modern day Cincinnatus, the Supreme Court just made him a consul and he just chose to go back to being a common man for the good of the republic.

If this plays out, he’ll go down in history books as the man who sacrificed himself to save Democracy.

Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage! Rage! Against the dying of the light!

I am reminded of Winston Churchill saying that Americans will do the right thing after they have exhausted all other options.

I just didn’t quite realize how far “all other options“ could really go.

According to trump, it was more valuable 30 years ago.

Lots of peeps on the D train, so I’m going G. You’ve got the spiciness of Mexican and Caribbean paired with the savoryness of Guatemalan and Colombian. Jam packed with fish and chicken dishes. Ceviche, jerk chicken, jambalaya, fried plantains, cornbreads, tacos, and giant burritos. Southern Spain means you get paella chock full of shellfish and also Spanish olives. And in the far west you get a bit of Hawaiian flare, so a little bit of Japanese sneaks in.

Regardless D and G are S tier. E and A are A tier. Everything else is, well, a carb with sauerkraut and sausage.

You spelled ruin wrong.

I don’t know how he did it. I’ve tried to grind up a little bit of airplane into my meals each day, but every time I even touch the fuel tank it gives me horrible, terrible gas.

Same thing with the windshield, just have never been too fond of seefood.

AI is in the hype section of the emerging technology curve. A lot of good will come out of AI once we calm down and stop losing our damn minds.

It won’t be just cheap GPUs either. It will be things like more accurate cancer diagnoses, as Cory says near the top.

What we need is for regulation to catch up and start incentivizing the right things…that is, the things that will benefit society as a whole, not just the oligarchs.

You know who doesn’t need Fluoride in their drinking water? People with dentures.

Checkmate whipper snappers.

I’m starting to understand how this fool bankrupted a casino.

This is the way. The idiots have been coddled for generations. They need to have the experience of their teeth rotting out for themselves.

Aww yeahhhh, it’s gonna be one helluva Jack Off!
