@neipate96 @atlanticesque Very recent change. But fast like they were making up for lost time
English
Burlington stands as a testament to the bankruptcy of modern yankee government.
I still love the little city, so it pains me to say, but it’s really disgusting.

Burlington Vermont is shockingly hood also people are nasty in the streets. It feels like "what if 90s gritty NY but everyone has pantogonia gear". I didn't expect the hood in Vermont
English
@atlanticesque Yeah. Went back there in 2024 and was in total shock. The entire downtown clogged with drug users, fights between homeless women at the bus depot-they have it all. It was not like this 10 years ago
English
I live in a wealthy area of Los Angeles and there are so many emaciated overdone older women here. They look like wind would snap them in half. The key to aging gracefully is weighing enough while not getting fat. Hurley is clearly thin but she looks vibrant and sturdy!

Elizabeth Hurley at 60 is proof women can be eternally in their prime.

@Floridagirl0850 Try bamboo fiber. It might have some synthetic material blended in but much less

Am I supposed to work out in a linen sports bra and wool leggings? Like how's that going to work?

STOP WEARING POLYESTER CLOTHING! Polyester is petroleum-based. It doesn’t breathe. It traps heat, sweat, and chemicals against your skin. Switch to: Cotton. Linen. Wool.

The sad thing is that it is the best possible place to raise children. And there were lots of kids when mine were little, so many babies born in our town the same year as my twins (2000). But then it all stopped and most of those kids moved away. You’d think internet would make such places more popular but the opposite happened
English
Living in a rapidly aging rural place sometimes feels like being the caretaker of a shockingly beautiful mausoleum.
Vermont—my verdant but childless necropolis.

@OldHollowTree Where have the young people gone, and why?
I suspect it's more than just affordability of housing.
Would anyone there tolerate trying to attract new young people from out of state?
English
@Antunes1 What’s that saying, when you’re in a hole stop digging? Someone needs to relay that message
English
I hate the taste of tallow…and the smell…basically everything about it.

Christ is in me,
Christ is in you,
Christ is in all of us.
If you believe say Amen 🙏

@FistedFoucault The stupidity on display here these past few days is unbelievable.

Bongs can't help but do this as it flows through their blood.
Is dickhead aware that the Pope publicly brought up the killing of the French in Algeria? Or is he just ignoring it?

Today I’m losing followers so fast because I am standing with the Catholic Church

@drbeckta @OldHollowTree And also an equity commission because why not
English
@OldHollowTree Don't let the state reps see this post - they'll raise our taxes even more to fund a $2 million dollar study to find out why.

Vermont has had more deaths than births every year for the last decade.
English
@ajlamesa Jordan Bardella, Georgia Meloni, Geert Wilders etc all have something in common beyond being far right. They are from neighbourhoods that are anything other than quaint and charming. The Europe tourists and most expats never see.
English
"Worldly American liberals have at least one thing in common with the French far right: They love French destinations that are quaint, traditional, and relatively unaffected by globalization and immigration."
Geoff Shullenberger@g_shullenberger
Jordan Bardella, the 30-year old who may be France's next president, is an unusual member of the French political class: a grandchild of Italian immigrants from the banlieu of Saint-Denis with an American first name. Michael Behrent profiles him: compactmag.com/article/the-ne…

@TheStalwart @razibkhan Hampshire college was one of the better quirky little colleges. Several have closed in Vermont as well: Goddard and Sterling come to mind
English
This kind of development is really depressing to me. All kinds of weird little colleges in the Northeast are closing. Nobody wants to double major in literature and kombucha-making anymore. Everyone just wants to work for Jane Street or an AI lab.
Josh Landes@JoshLandesWAMC
BREAKING: After years of financial struggles, Hampshire College will close after the 2026 fall semester. I obtained an email sent to the college community this morning that confirms the board of Trustees have voted to permanently close the experimental institution. @WAMCNews

@laridiniz The Psalter is extremely important in Catholicism.
English
Achar que os católicos não leem exaustivamente o antigo testamento é um equívoco.
Na montagem da missa católica existem 4 leituras: primeira leitura, salmo, segunda leitura e evangelho.
A primeira leitura é sempre retirada do antigo testamento (exceto em solenidades).
Helder Nozima@nozima
Porque os evangélicos leram o Antigo Testamento. Os católicos sabem os nomes dos santos e dão nomes de santos. Como ninguém do Antigo Testamento foi santo, então a maioria dos católicos nem sabe quem foi Isaque, Ester, Jonas e outros.

@shagbark_hick This cortisol thing has gotten way out of hand. Being obsessed with cortisol increases cortisol
English
There's a certain type of American for whom these kinds of questions will always yield an "all or nothing" type answer.
To say one should never drink alone, OK, this makes sense. Loneliness is worse than boozing; if you drink amongst friends it's a net positive.
But ZERO alcohol? Coming from an American man of the same ilk that pushed for temperance, prohibition, some of whom have even had a habit of contorting the Bible to make it seem as if Christ was drinking grape juice?
Yeah I'm not surprised such a fellow is achieving the same conclusions in secular terms. The ghosts of his teetotaler ancestors (not to speak of his Mormon parents) are speaking through him, and he's using "science" as a foil.
The really detrimental thing is almost always OVERCORRECTION.
Bryan Johnson@bryan_johnson
Friends, stop drinking alcohol. Not cut back. Eliminate. > alcohol increases cortisol > disrupts REM sleep > accelerates epigenetic aging > shrinks hippocampal volume > elevates resting heart rate > raises inflammatory markers > impairs glucose metabolism for 16 hrs One drink does that.

@homemakinghunny Stand mixer. I got so much use out of my Kitchen Aid. Does much more than just make bread dough
English
Ok homemakers/makers of food from scratch people:
We are looking into buying either a stand mixer or a good bread maker. I am leaning toward stand mixer because I feel like it’s a lot more versatile. The main goal is to be making our own bread consistently. But I do make a lot of things homemade and I feel like a stand mixer is better for that. But the bread maker takes a lot of the work out of making bread for you so maybe that would be more convenient for the purposes of bread making. But I also can’t make buns or smaller portion bread items with the bread maker.
Unfortunately, a KitchenAid is out of the budget, but we’re looking at the Hamilton Beach stand mixer, which seems pretty good as well and comes with dough hooks, whisk attachment, etc. and for the bread mixer, we’re looking at one by Starfrit.

@CCityCatholic I’m wondering if they even have the type of craftsman who can build a beautiful church. The possible answer is frightening to consider
English
Normal, everyday people want beauty and tradition.
"Experts," guided by a dated impulse to "break conventions," force this ugliness on normal, everyday people.

@Italian347 Gaeta was the historic border on the coast. Perhaps ironic that Mussolini was imprisoned in the fortress there for a while

@fraxinusleaf Rieti was part of Umbria
I don't think Latina was a 1:1 transfer tho, most of its territory was interested but it was from breaking Terra di Lavoro that it and Frosinone were expanded.
English
It will never not be funny how the part of Lazio that borders Tuscany (Toscana) is called Tuscia, and in it is a town called Tuscania
