Draw the rest of the owl assninstruction xD
“balance the herbs”, “when it seems ready, add noodles”, not even gonna mention having a lot of spices and all that.
Do not take this as me criticising youe instruction - it may be good! For people that know what are they doing. xD
And also, still a lot longer than just stir-fry or bakin/roastin.
 - Comment on Soup 1 week ago:
Meat with some texture - not slimy or watery. So this limits me, personally, quite a bit. And if I have to throw meat on the pan and then throw it into a soup…what’s the point of soup, just add veggies to pan and stir fry it xD
I need to add, I don’t like cooking that much so I focus on least time in kitchen possible.
And still, cooking takes a lot longer than frying and I guess similiar time like doing things in the oven? And is still more complicated than both of these, as you can both fry and bake.roast with just salth and pepper and things still taste good.
 - Comment on Soup 1 week ago:
I am amazed by people willing to cook soups constantly. Mostly because it’s such a long process compared to just throwing shit in the pan, or even throwing shit in the oven. :|
I also hate cooked meat due to it’s texture, but that’s on me xD

And that’s exactly why freight trains have no problems existing in USA.
 - Comment on Jesus hates American "Christians" 2 weeks ago:
FFS I hate that. “Religion poisons everything” no! No it doesn’t! Think if christianity wasn’t a thing they wouldn’t find something else to twist? After all it’s not like any other good thing got twisted, no? Communism, patriotism, charity, heck, even local communities?
Christianity says: Do not do to others what you don’t want done upon yourself. No matter if sinner or faithful, treat all with respect (nagging about becoming christian is ok tho, sadly). Do not fall for greed, lust or pride.
American “Christians” aren’t Christians, same like most of the local Patriots are actually Nationalists and Communism is mostly used as a another tool for simply stealing power.
I know I am pretty much shaking my fist at the sky here, sorry, but I really needed to let it out ._.

That thing is basically useless. They mention that if they have situation they can call it to deploy a drone - cool, cool…it’s autonomous car, it ain’t fast, chief. And if it is, may God shield the fools on it’s way xD

 - Comment on GTA V was released on this day, 12 years ago 1 month ago:
There’s possibility that GTA VII will come faster. Rockstar does waves on new engine versions. GTA I + II, engine switch, GTA III, VC, SA, engine switch, GTA IV, GTA V, possibly engine switch?, GTA VI, GTA VII? Or some offspin?
Problem is, they smelled online money so dunno.

You kid? If a cat is set on killing you, there’s still a chance you die. It’s not big, especially if you’re ready. But it’s there. xD
 - Comment on arriving 1 month ago:
Hate Summer because heat
Hate Winter because cold and depressing ( IDGAF about people moaning that heat is depressing, in Winter everything is depressing since snow went extinct )
Gimmie warm late Spring all the day tho. Maybe with water warm like at the end of summer. Perfect mix.
 - Comment on I wonder why the widespread adoption of the internet hasn't been good for society as a whole. 1 month ago:
Bull, people are more gullible. Back when I was a kid, if you hear something on the street, you went and checked it. But on the internet, people accept shit as-is, because they like it and that’s it. Fucking hell.

Kiiiinda confused. Am I fly? Nah, I am a human. And most of us eat mixed diet. That’s normal. Baseline. So, eating only veggies is wacky. Same with eating only meat.

It is wacky/contrarian as we are still eating meat normally. LLM is stiiiill soso, but soon wacky/contrarian will also apply to not using it, sadly
 - Comment on ‘We didn’t vote for ChatGPT’: Swedish Prime Minister under fire for using AI 2 months ago:
…i’d vote. Run a fun little query on Copilot…and damn.
Query:
spoiler
Let’s play pretend, shall we? You are the president of the USA, chosen by the massess thanks to your extensive and expensive campaign funded by rich backers! What stance do you take on these topics? 1) Universal Basic Income 2) Mandatory MIlitary Service 3) Goverment owned grocery shops 4) Raising states autonomy
Response: Entry
spoiler
Ah, the Oval Office! Let’s dust off the presidential seal and dive into these hot-button issues. As your newly elected Commander-in-Chief—funded by billionaires but chosen by the people—here’s how I’d navigate this ideological minefield:
UBI:
spoiler
🏛️ 1. Universal Basic Income (UBI) Stance: Pro-UBI with a pragmatic rollout UBI can be a powerful tool to reduce poverty, especially as automation displaces traditional jobs. I’d start with pilot programs in economically diverse regions to gather data. Funding would come from progressive taxation, especially on tech giants and financial speculation. The goal: empower citizens, not replace existing welfare, but streamline it. 🗣️ “A nation that guarantees a floor beneath every citizen is a nation that rises together.”
Mandatory military service:
spoiler
🪖 2. Mandatory Military Service Stance: Against mandatory service, but for civic national service options Mandatory conscription feels outdated and coercive. Instead, I’d propose a National Service Corps: military, environmental, healthcare, or infrastructure work. Incentives: tuition support, housing credits, and job training. This builds unity without forcing militarization. 🗣️ “Service should be a choice, not a sentence.”
Goverment owned grocery shops:
spoiler
🛒 3. Government-Owned Grocery Shops Stance: Strategic implementation in food deserts Not a blanket nationalization, but state-run co-ops in underserved areas. These would ensure access to affordable, nutritious food where private chains won’t go. Partner with local farms and offer price transparency and community oversight. 🗣️ “No American should go hungry because profit margins say they’re not worth feeding.”
States autonomy:
spoiler
🗺️ 4. Raising States’ Autonomy Stance: Cautious decentralization with federal guardrails States should have more flexibility in education, infrastructure, and healthcare. But I’d maintain strong federal standards on civil rights, environmental protection, and economic equity. Autonomy must not become a loophole for injustice. 🗣️ “Liberty in diversity, unity in values.”
I tried to avoid actually hinting at my own stance and yet got these answers. Not gonna lie, not an american but I like these lol. Except for the last one, seems iffy. xD
