In case anyone doesn’t understand how all this works:

Republicans make outlandish, grandiose, patently untrue, vitriolic and inflammatory statements.

This is picked up by right wing “news” outlets like FOX, OAN, Newsmax, etc. and “reported” on and repeated. To the people who watch these sources they believe its legitimate, real and true.

These people ONLY get their information from these sources. They are massive echo chambers. There is no fact checking, no competeting opinion and no misinformation correction. It is in fact the purpose.

This is meant to stir anger, resentment and many other immoral narratives and it works.

Post birth abortions are OF COURSE not a thing but that truth will be lost on the people that consume and believe this bullshit.

$249 for an Insignia 55” 4k tv at best buy right now. Come on people, sell some plasma, don’t buy contribute to this kind of thing.

We’ve spent Trillions to counter Russia overvthe decades.

To support Ukraine in a proxy war that weakens, destabilizes or destroys Russia where no American soldiers die and we get to test out our arsenal in a real world scenario is a worthwhile investment not to mention the moral and humanitarian aspect.

Do we have problems at home? Yes but that’s never been a good enough reason to reduce military spending.

I do think the military budget is out of control and more money should be appropriated to the issues that matter like healthcare but at this moment in time we should absolutely continue to support Ukraine.

We are the world leaders and other countries follow. We can’t let our support erode. We can’t let Russia win this one.

Why is our military so huge? Why have we spent Trillions over decades?

In part to counter Russia for sure.

Now we have an opportunity to proxy war the shit out of them without risking American lives while preventing possibly worse escalation down the road should they win in Ukraine all while using old munitions and equipment that would be decommissioned anyway while increasing production at home and . . .

GOP: Nah

The reason for the bill is Democrats vote by mail at a higher rate than R’s.

I’d like to say we need national laws for voting but with the supreme court as it is maybe not a great idea.

I’m going to go with Satisfactory.

Only rich kids had a Neo Geo or Turbo Grfx-16.

We were far from rich.

Baby Brezza formula machine.

Pre-heats the water and has a hopper for the powder. You can have a bottle of formula ready to go in about 10 seconds. Wifi with an app too.

In a perfect world. I work a 12hr graveyard shift and flip to dayshift schedule on my days off.

You need to do it in a structured way. Get home, nap a few hours, go to bed at a normal bedtime, wake up, a dash of adderall. Good to go.

It kind of sounds like you’re describing bipolar disorder. These cycles of up and down.

You said this low period always happens right after your most creative periods. Depressive cycles typically last longer than the manic phase which is what you described.

Not a doctor obviously but I lived with it undiagnosed for a very long time. Maybe read up on it and see if it fits your experience.

Whatever it is I hope you find some relief.

Presidents of the United States of America

aka POTUSA

Ok, you have to try them with President brand butter. It’s a cultured butter from France. It’s the most buttery tasting butter my tastebuds have ever tasted. It’s all I buy now.

I’ve seen it at Publix and Walmart. If you can find it give it a try. It’s better than Kerrygold.

I don’t know about the corrola specifically but many cars can act as a hot spot so if you have kids they can connect their tablets or whatnot.

100 years dungeon!

I’ve owned probably 15 vehicles. No Mazdas. We just went from a 2012 highlander limited to a 2019 cx-9 GT with 25k mi for around 35k.

Man, what a nice ass car. I honestly never knew. Tons of features and thoughtful details. Dollar to value we’re very happy with it.

Might turn it in for a cx-90 in a few years.

Me: Had to google Quilcene River

Also me: Born and lived in WA for 28 years

It is at sunset but I think the term is due to them appearing opposite of the sun. This pic was taken facing East with the sun setting in the West.

Crepuscular rays are a thing too but appear in the same direction as the sun.

Are you me?

The green onion teriyaki sauce is fantastic. I mix it into ground turkey and make burgers on the grill.

On the sauce tip we’ve gravitated to SBR. It’s dark and smokey like bulls eye but sweeter.

For chicken I really like grill mates sweet and smokey rub

Cahoots

This doesnt exactly conform to a mixed review based answer but as far as missing out, check out Observer: System Redux.

Got it free from the Epic store. Not my usual genre. Like a horror cyberpunk detective game with wild visuals.

You track down a killer, using cybernetic implants to help you find clues and jack directly into peoples heads where you fall down the rabbit hole of their minds.

I dunno, I thought it was wild and unique and not main stream.

If you get it make sure It’s the system redux version, they added ray tracing and MASSIVELY upgraded the visuals and added some story.

99% sure that’s a fly mimicking a bee, not a real bee. Bees have 4 wings and tuck them in when at rest.

That makes this fetish even weirder.

I’ve come to learn there are two varieties. One that stays short and one that grows taller. There are quite a few in the neighborhood with long stalks/trunks maybe four or five feet high. Both types look the same to me aside from their height. Mine is maybe three feet and It’s been like that for the 13 years we’ve been here.

It only grows one set per year. I swear It’s only grown a few inches in the last decade. Very prehistoric.

I have an old hp mini netbook with an atom processor and 1gb RAM. I needed something light to run on it so I put Lubuntu on it.

It was fun dabbling in it and getting everything to work but I haven’t really messed with it since.

I was probably 40.

I run Win on my main pc only for gaming really. Maybe if linux gets better support I would consider switching over.

Hibiscus

Where was this taken from?

Heres one I found that looks similar:

Flower Fly

There are quite a few different ones out there across the globe. Pretty interesting.

Didn’t think of that but damn you’re right!

Ok will do, thanks

Nice! I caught one in the morning once.

That’s definitely cake.

Ah Graham, ok. Slightly different perspective than I’m used to.

That’s a pretty open question.

What games were you curious about that have mixed reviews?

We had something similar in Washington state, wild strawberries. They tasted amazing but were not easy to find.

I guess it was around the same price although it released in a different year. I guess I equated rarity to price. I think they were late to the game and had a small game catalog.

Console Price List

It is

You took that in a broader sense. What I specifically meant by that was noone would provide Ukraine with tanks unless the U.S. offered them first.
