I was kind of expecting it to be a “carnivore” thing, but didn’t consider the soy boy aspect.

Thought it was like “I only cook with lard, butter, and bacon grease because vegetables are gross”

Why does he not consider vegetable oil to be cooking oil?

The 1932 election had a communist option, it’s unlikely that there will be one on my ballot.

We’re not going to overthrow fascism in America at the voting booth. I’m not trying to convince anyone to vote for Biden, that’s his job and he’s not doing it very well. I’m also not going to shame anyone for doing something easy like voting in the hopes that it makes them a tiny bit safer.

I would shame someone if they thought that voting democrat is a step towards bringing about positive change or parroted some bullshit about how we can get more concessions from Democrats than Republicans. If voting is the extent of your political engagement, you aren’t opposing fascism.

If Hitler had actually held an election and the only options were him or a Strasser party, I don’t think it would be immoral to vote for the Strassers. But I also don’t think it would be a moral obligation if you had no reason to believe they would stop the Holocaust.

If they’re both equally evil internationally and mostly equally evil domestically, am I allowed to vote for who is less likely to remove more human rights from women and trans people?

I would never tell anyone that they should vote, I understand people’s reasons for not doing it. Selfishly, I’m going to give myself the best chance of having access to life saving health care until I’m no longer of child bearing age.

As if either of them would agree to a debate

Thanks for explaining that. I was trying to figure out if it was some weird reference to Wicked.

Is there any racist symbology behind the hand being feminine with black nail polish?

This is just not realistic.

Using the median home price is severely underestimating the cost of a decent home in an okay neighborhood.

With these salaries, you can afford a house that needs severe repairs or in either an unsafe or really inconvenient area.

I bought a house in one of these cities in 2017 with slightly more than what they say is the required salary. It was 195k with 4.5%. The school district reassessed the house from the sale, my taxes skyrocketed, and my mortgage increased $600 a month. I ended up selling the house after 3 years to move in my parents with 25k in credit card debt.

Today, that house would cost at least 300k and interest rates are around 8%. I’ve almost tripled my salary since then and my budget is probably max 330k.

If the blackface Got milk photo shoot from America’s Next Top Model didn’t make you obsessed with milk, I don’t know what to tell you.

I’m in a similar boat. Congratulations on your weight loss! I had to have bariatric surgery to get my eating under control, so I know how immensely challenging it is.

Because of my surgery, it’s just not possible to be vegan. I have to get 60g of protein per day and can only fit about 1 cup of food in my stomach at a time. It’s just not possible to get that much protein in the amount of vegan food I can fit in my stomach.

I can have protein based milk alternatives like soy milk and I’m also a big fan of tofu, but meat is just a lot more protein dense. I’ve just accepted that I’m going to die if meat or vitamins become unavailable in the future.

It does not need to be this big.

Just give us New York, it’s already more than 5x as big as Israel and most of us are already there.

One of the downsides of having mandatory military service is that civilians aren’t exactly regular civilians. Even if they’re not serving now, most of the adult population in Israel has served in the army.

I don’t think that excuses sexual violence and executing children, but it definitely makes the context of civilians a lot murkier.

I’m on board with this except instead of reusable glass bottles that need to be transported around, you’re responsible for your own reusable bottle/mug/thermos and you can only get beverages from a soda fountain.

My school had security guards but they weren’t police officers. They were actually very nice and liked by everyone.

One of them got suspended because he tackled a man who had a gun through a window (on the ground floor) and we all thought that was bullshit.

The formation of these countries we have today is condemnable and it’s exactly what Israel is attempting to do, which is why they must be stopped.

I think this is because it’s more expensive and takes longer to build and maintain a desktop website, mobile website, and app.

If you design everything to work on mobile, you can reuse it as the desktop site. You can most likely reuse assets in the app as well.

Also, people are using their phones a lot more frequently than desktop/laptop, so mobile experience gets prioritized.

That’s so 2000 and late, where’s the AI?

How much hair do you have and what texture?

This is definitely not doable for me. I’m closer to 10 min for a normal shower, could probably do it in 6 if I tried to be speedy.

I’d say it’s the best anime adaption I’ve seen

Clearly you’ve never seen Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon
