This story made me cry. I am disabled and not always mobile. There are loved ones in my family who are elderly, cannot walk far, and depend on medication.

I cannot even imagine what it must be like to try to evacuate at short notice, with nowhere to go.

Take milk, simmer for an hour. Thats basically it

I feel like you're one of the people this article is talking about.

Dromio05 showed me several posts he deemed questionable since Reddit took away his own mod badge. For example, this post shares a link to an article about "rebel canners," which Dromio05 argues "gives a public platform to people who openly encourage methods and recipes that are known to be unsafe, like canning milk and open kettle canning." The post is labeled unsafe, but Dromio05 would have removed the link to the article.

If they were the size of a penis it would just be the male condom with extra steps.

Brb building time machine.

My childhood was a bit difficult, but very fun, but my teen years were hard.

After about 23 everything just got better and better for me, emotionally, financially, career-wise, everything.

Then in my mid 30s I was struck down by an illness that takes most aspects of your life away and throws you back into poverty. So that has been really hard, losing my career, ability to work or socialize, etc.

Life isn't what it's "supposed to" be for many of us. It's a random lottery of birth and health and events.

I'm not either.

I mean I'm not exactly offended by it, but if someone uses it that's a "note to self, this person is most likely misogynist" moment for sure.

Thanks, I think I misunderstood the above, I thought they were saying you could make canned at home.

Never knew what was in key lime pie (it's not much of a thing here), so that's cool to know!

New New Internet.

It would improve living standards and mortality rates for Cuban citizens.

This and put it on neocities.

Nokia c5-00 and I stil prefer it.

Thank you.

This is my dilemma too! Most of the threads in my instance are politics.

It doesn't help that I'm actually quite interested in politics.

I just don't like discussing them online because of the minority of people can't remain civil.

Sorry @Tar, I misunderstood what you were saying.

Not exactly.

Any ship that docks in Cuba is barred entry to US ports in the next 180 days.

The US can also sanction foriegn companies that trade with Cuba.

It's not a blockade but it has a chilling effect on trade.

That would be confusing. I want to be able to tell govt.nz apart from the US one.

I did that. It was amazing how many people tried to make it into some kind of sex call.

Now there's a thought. I've only had it a couple of times at an American themed restaurant but it was very nice.

Condensed milk is mostly sugar.

Pretty sure they would pick China. Big open spaces, plenty of tech, large population size, consistent leadership.

Surely that is not what the job is supposed to be though.

I think you're right.

I used to teach first year undergraduates and the first time they heard the American term "people of colour" invariably led to a lot of confusion and offence because many of them (especially PoC themselves) initially thought it was insulting.
