  Sriracha isn’t exactly sour but it pairs really well with other sweet stuff.

  One of my favourite snacks is some sour jam (lemon, berries, rhubarb, etc) with a healthy dollop of sriracha on bread.

  The mix between fruits and garlic kinda feel like Durian if it had no smell.

  I’m glad I don’t live in a federal country where rights vary by state.

  I’m basically in France’s Midwest except it’s more left leaning.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grandma is on her own⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Where are you?

  Seeing the prices I’d guess some 3rd tier city in the usa?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grandma is on her own⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  And I’m living in a metropolis of 750 souls in buttfuck France.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grandma is on her own⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Almost bit the bait lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Grandma is on her own⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The fuck is going on where you live?

  My family and I bought a 250m² house for less than 50k. (2yrs ago)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What sort of grill needs a firmware update lol⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  eh, induction stoves are nice.

  Cringe asf

  Where I’m from (France) this is how you pay deposits for rentals.

  We also have “bank cheques” for big expenses like houses.

  Paying with cheques in regular shops is getting rarer, often requires providing two ID, and gets you weird looks. Debit cards have mostly replaced that usage.

  We don’t really have credit cards afaik.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah this one is pretty niche nowadays.

  I did it for my nephews because I found it funny to give them time capsules of what kind of music was broadcasted when they were born. And cassettes are a good medium for long time storage :p

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah I was thinking about renting physical copies not streaming.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d count digital ones as well.

  That’s how I didn’t get the point since none of my leatherback encyclopedias is a complete set (yay backyard sales).

  Like a getting movies in a public library can count as renting at Blockbusters imho?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  0 points if you count public libraries as “blockbuster adjacent” and I’m only a year older than you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d assume it’s the floppy one but same lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Same and I’m not even 30 ^^`

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Today's Survey. One point for everything that you have NEVER DONE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s the thing you’ve never done?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel publicly announces genocidal intent⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Only that their aim, living in their own country can be seen as political.

  I’d say it is political. As much as any other human rights are.

  If anything, the US/Isntreal military ticks all the boxes.

  Amen

  OK, but terrorism is most certainly not a neutral term.

  I agree it isn’t in the cultural zeitgeist. But I’m genuinely trying to argue that it kinda should be.

  e.g. the IRA were based terrorists.

  Is it partly because it involves targeting civilians? Of course.

  Is it because it can be effective in the context of asymmetric warfare? I’d say probably.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel publicly announces genocidal intent⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think you’re missing my point and that we pretty much agree beside some semantics.

  What I meant is that terrorism is a somewhat neutral term for me.

  Luigi Mangione, the IRA, or even the resistance against Nazis during WWII were terrorists imho. But would I say any of these are evil? Fuck no.

  What makes it ok or evil is why you do it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel publicly announces genocidal intent⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How is it not terrorism?

  Using violence on civilians to further political goals.

  What Israel is doing is terrorism too.

  One can be seen as self defence and the last resort beside being deported or killed. The other is to pacify a population that’s being genocided.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel publicly announces genocidal intent⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The jews were very much a main quest.

  Alongside the slavs, romani, gays, etc

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Israel publicly announces genocidal intent⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The only times when he doesn’t lie is when he says he’s gonna do smth awful tho.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨When fighter jets are scrambled to intercept a plane for security reasons, what can they actually do?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They straight up remove the front part of your head.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yes I would like to see it⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I want to read this post in a more positive light.

  This is how the whole interaction is supposed to happen with no innuendos or anything implied: ask for cat, get cat.

  But it might not be what OOP intended.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨John Oliver promoted alternatives to big tech in last night's episode, including Mastodon and Pixelfed⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Often most of those at the same time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Devil's Panties doesn't miss⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I too would like to be able to spawn extra arms to bash nazis more efficiently.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They haven't made too many family-friendly cartoons about an abusive husband in a toxic relationship since they stopped making The Flintstones.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  At least a dead beat one imho.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dinner bell is going off⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I didn’t consider that. It’s very common for people with ADHD to forget eating and overuse whatever CNS stimulant is readily available.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But they are two bangin shirts⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s not specifically men’s fault.

  It’s partriarchy’s and - its pendant - misogyny’s fault. People that pass as men do benefit from them and thus tend to manifest them more but they’re baked in the whole society.

  People that aren’t men can internalize thoses biases too. Women enforcing other women wearing a shit ton of different outfits are manifesting internalized misogyny.

  I’d argue that there’s also a dash of classism sprinkled on top of it because it seems more of an issue in bourgeois (or at least bourgeois affiliated) settings. I wear safety clothes and PPEs in the shop so not much variety here and there’s no issue if I wear the same outfit I like with friends.

  And even at that patriarchy hurts even the “regular-est” cis straight white men. All that shit about “being a real man”, promoting risky behaviours, shutting down all emotions, etc aren’t good for anyone…

  I hope you had an at least ok day c:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But they are two bangin shirts⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I for one would be stocked.

  Fancy dude clothes look awesome on anyone that isn’t me \o

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨But they are two bangin shirts⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t usually anticipate a random garment to become my favourite.

  I try to stock up when it happens but sometimes I can’t find any at a price I’m willing (or able) to pay.

  Having hippie grandma tastes and trying my damnest to buy mostly used clothes don’t help either.

  Otoh I’m getting real good at mending clothes until they fall apart. I have very low standards for home clothes.
