@centeroflearing Exactly. I had it get moldy once when I didn’t use it for months but otherwise no.

@turnedfourthing Butter goes bad?

“Are you fucking stupid? How could this entire home cooked meal only cost $4?? You can’t just buy a tablespoon of butter. You have to buy it in bulk! Wtf am I going to do with the leftover 31 tablespoons of butter???” Dumbest generation alive.

@EarnurHKG @Steezehuman

@turnedfourthing @Steezehuman Mincing words. You are not making an effective argument. I think we are done.

@EarnurHKG @Steezehuman That's nice. That's describing the virtue of charity, not the right to be fed. There's a difference.

There is a difference between wanting to work and not able to find work and freeloading. In Jesus words that all Christians follow: 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’ 37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’ 40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’ - Matthew 25:35-40

@alex_fasulo > He told me the companies can make more money at scale by using land that's already cleared. Well, yeah, that's why datacenters are going in to agricultural land too.

Long before I knew what the Office of Renewable Energy Siting (ORES) was, I agreed to go to a town hearing where my farm resides and speak about pollinators and what I was doing for them at my farm. Along the way, I learned that nearly every hayfield, small farm, and "open space" owner near my farm had been approached, on average, 4-6 times to lease their land to solar companies. We are witnessing a disturbing decline in pollinators countrywide, yes from pesticides, but also from habitat loss. They are losing the land, soils, and host plants they need to survive. When I realized the land around my farm could turn into a solar complex, I knew I needed to learn more about what was happening. I went to this meeting in my town to speak in support of a Solar Facilities Law. A man around my age was there as well, dispatched out of Santa Monica, California to speak out against our law. This was a very small Town Board meeting that, maybe, 8 people were at. What on EARTH was a man from California doing in my little town? When he approached me in the parking lot after the meeting to try and tell me why I was wrong (he picked the wrong person to do this to lol), I will never forget what he said to me. "We are pursuing farmland and open space for the panels because it comes with the least amount of impediments," he said. He told me the companies can make more money at scale by using land that's already cleared. He also told me it's easier to "ram their agenda through small town boards" than it was to take it to city councils. Not ONCE did he mention the environment, the wildlife, the people of our towns, our history or culture, or lowering our electric bills. The entire "solar" concept was one of money. He didn't even deny it to me. That's what caught my attention. I'd like to think it would catch anyone else's attention, too. The largest wealth transfer of our lifetimes is happening right before our very eyes. Generational farmland that's been stewarded by American citizens since the Revolutionary War is changing hands to foreign solar and wind corporations. That was always the plan.

@JKash000 @TheLastRefuge2 Iran go boom

@TheLastRefuge2 Is Nunes in the running for AG? What do you make of Trump not attending Don Jr’s wedding in the Bahamas?

I suspect Trump intends (likely did already) to ask Nunes to be DNI. I strongly doubt Nunes would agree/accept. A shuffle will have to be an option.

@EarnurHKG @Steezehuman Never said I was a Christian. Also, pretty sure the Bible says "by the sweat of thy brow shalt though eat bread."

@turnedfourthing @Steezehuman So let them starve to death? You are a pathetic human, and certainly not a Christian.

@EarnurHKG @Steezehuman Nope. Sorry not sorry.

@turnedfourthing @Steezehuman You mean that you do or do not believe every human has the right to food and shelter?

@robkhenderson @thetimes I'm a straight guy and Clavicular gives me the ick.

My latest for @thetimes "The basic version of looksmaxxing is good for almost everyone: exercise, a decent haircut, clothes that fit, better posture, a reasonable diet. But the looksmaxxing protocol that Clavicular tells them to adopt gives women the ick" thetimes.com/us/news-today/…

@EarnurHKG @Steezehuman I wasn't a workaholic, I was just poor and getting started in life. But I never thought I had a right to anything I couldn't pay for.

@turnedfourthing @Steezehuman Same! I was a workaholic in my 20s and now regret that! Life is NOT about work! Lessons learned.

@pdawg119 @monsterhunter45 Almost all of it.

@monsterhunter45 I wonder how much of the "nazi=right wing" walking points come from Soviet propaganda.

It is actually kind of funny how historically illiterate these low IQ dumbfucks are about the actual 1930s-40s nazis. They think it was all eugenics and racist bullshit and the idea that they share A LOT of policies with the modern American left baffles them. See my response to the dummy. In reality if you pull up the actual nazi party platform, the 25 policies which they ran on, and got elected on, and proceeded to implement... modern American democrats share most of them. It's national healthcare, and welfare, and social programs, and collectivism, and confiscating profits, and nationalizing industries, and so forth. Then in addition to that was all the racist/eugenics bullshit. And for that Graham Platner getting a fucking Totenkopf is like reaching for the stars. That's for assholes who think swastikas aren't hard core enough. But these useful idiots have been taught their whole life nazi=right wing, and these dummies run around the internet thinking that the modern American right/left corresponds perfectly with the previous centuries European right/left, because that's quick, easy, and useful for American democrats. They don't know that most of the actual nazis started out as socialists of one flavor or another and their party evolved from there. So it is super easy to find quotes from any democrat "advocating for nazi idelogy", because most of their bullshit matches up just fine. Graham Platner is just a white democrat who said the quiet part out loud.

@SteveKreitler @monsterhunter45 The American political spectrum is skew to the European one: neither parallel nor intersecting. American right is Protestant and "classical liberal". European right is Catholic and monarchist.

I’m currently reading Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, and he keeps referring to the right wing in Germany. I’ve come to the conclusion that right wing and left wing don’t really mean anything, as I’m a right winger here in the US and have nothing in common with that so-called right wing.

@EarnurHKG @Steezehuman > All you will do is work, eat, sleep, and be exhausted. All of us did that in our 20s.

@Steezehuman You can’t! The math ain’t mathing! You would need at least 2 jobs, plus a side hustle like Doordash or Lyft. All you will do is work, eat, sleep, and be exhausted. You could also get one or more roommates to share rent if your apartment is big enough to help.

Muslim Groups in Britain Issue Warning as pressure grows to tackle grooming gangs, parallel societies, integration failures and rising extremism, some Muslim voices in the UK are now threatening: "We might leave the UK." Instead of committing to British values, they're treating Britain like a hotel — happy to enjoy benefits, welfare, and freedoms... but ready to walk away the moment any demands (halal, Sharia courts, no criticism of Islam) are challenged. If they're so quick to threaten to leave, why were they here in the first place? PLEASE GO.

@Bas3dPhilosophy @jbarro Same thing. "ADHD" is just the latest euphemism-cycle for what old-school people like me called ADD. I got scolded once because supposedly adding "hyperactive" was "less stigmatizing".

@turnedfourthing @jbarro I said ADHD. Add people would find it easier.

People used to be embarrassed to admit that they found everyday tasks too overwhelming to handle, now it's an identity

@cjkc_life09 @jbarro I cook large pots of chili, beef stew, chicken cacciatore, spaghetti, etc., and freeze them in wide-mouth pint mason jars. The wide mouth gives room for expansion so they don't break.

@jbarro I cook/bake large batches, divide & freeze for future use. Today I made a batch of meatballs. I'll divide in to portions & freeze. Can be used with a variety of sauces, served with pasta, noodles, or eaten as a snack. I make & freeze batches of cookie, pie, & bread doughs, etc..

@Bas3dPhilosophy @jbarro I have ADD and I'm not overwhelmed by cooking my own food in the slightest.

@jbarro He's describing someone with ADHD. He may not know it, but he is. 😂

@jbarro I am heartily sick of reading posts from people in their 40s exclaiming, "I adulted today! I put on socks and went to the store!" Well, bully for you, buttercup. Grow up already.

@devahaz I think the real problem isn't the difficulty of cooking (or lack thereof), it's that too many people are slaves of social media. (Or Martha Stewart before then.)

Yes, of course you can start simple. But that’s predominantly not what is being pushed on people by search and social media when it comes to cooking content.

Some reasons why cooking is overwhelming for many: -To cook each cuisine requires different base set of spices, staples, etc -Popular recipes often include obscure, expensive ingredients -Purchasing exact item amts often not possible -Utilizing rest of perishable food challenging
