Cumin can add a cinnamonesque flavor to chilis, I wonder if that is where the idea of putting cinnamon in chili comes from.

What good are the screenshots?

I’m not a big fashionista or anything but I would also say that the tie is not a good fit.

It needs to go on something it can contrast with and there it just sort of blends in.

I guess it’s a quality versus quantity thing. It’s a lot easier for 4 billion people to coexist happily than it is for 8 billion people in the same space.

Our food air and water quality have all dropped dramatically over the last 50 years even though the protections for them have increased.

If half the population did not reproduce then those of us that have grandkids might live in a better world.

“DO i’T”

Number 3 won the gold star for the day

Yep. If you want to get woo-woo about it it is kind of interesting that the Bible says that we are the light of the world and when measured with appropriately sensitive scientific equipment it turns out we glow.

Not trying to push an agenda, just commenting on the connections that my mind makes.

I used to have one pop up ever so often on my neck, which was weird because up until a few years ago I didn’t even grow facial hair.

Just like overnight all of a sudden I would have a 2-in long white hair sticking out of my neck.

Humans emit photons as well, but very few of them, making it almost impossible for them to be detected except with special detection systems (I don’t know what they’re called).

I used it for a while. It honestly was a really good browser for a long time but since everything started going this shit it quickly fell from my good graces.

The only time I even think of missing it is when I have to open a page that is optimized against Firefox on purpose because the developers decided to use some janky Javascript plugin and didn’t test.

I miss my games being on solid media that I can trade with my friends or sell at a game store.

But I would not give up the seven seas to have that back again.

There’s the line about the beast that was wounded unto death and yet lived that seems vaguely apropos

13:3:

And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

For me, it’s exactly the same as it essentially has been since 2016. The world is not on my side and if you are like me it is not on yours either.

Remember, the world was always against us.

We are The Losers, the creeps, the weirdos. We are The underdogs that nobody roots for and that’s the way it has always been.

Nothing has actually changed for us, Kamala was not an ideal president, she was just not Trump. Same for Biden. We haven’t had a good president since Jimmy Carter, Obama had the potential but had the Senate and the house against him the whole time.

I am anxious about the future, about all of the potential terror that we may face over the next 4 to 40 years.

All we can do is all we have been able to do.

Help each other out.

Care.

Shine a light no matter how dark the world gets.

This too shall pass.

Is concubine the correct term? Wouldn’t it be “a harem of twink concubines”?

Break out some coconuts and become her faithful steed.

I hope he has an Ebenezer Scrooge moment and changes his life to be more fitting, and that he walks away from politics like it’s a casino he just bankrupted or a worker that wants to get paid for the work they’ve done for him.

They only look that way thanks to explosive decompression. Most blobfish are pulled up too quickly and end up expanding like that. At their normal pressures they look like almost any other fish.

The final word of their post was move.

My response addresses a reason why you would choose not to move.

Besides, I have family that live in a low cost of living area and the downside of living in a low cost of living area is that the jobs aren’t there.

Sure, a family of three can live on 45,000 a year in rural Alabama, with a stay-at-home parent, but it’s not going to be a fun time.

I don’t know. If I were young and single and fresh out of college with a six figure job offer at a San Francisco company, I would consider this, at least until I got my footing.

Sure, it might suck, but I could put up with a lot of suck in order to be able to pocket that much spare cash.

I’ve never played any of them myself but my guess is that it’s the monster hunting.
