I’ve also known some sleaze bag business owners who seek these kinds of services because they want to find a way to take advantage of programs n things they don’t actually qualify for.

Qapla’! Fucking Ah-maz-ing!

And if you had not voted, how would we be seeing different right now?

Do you really think a 3rd party would have won? Do you think Trump would have made any better decisions for anyone besides is rich donors? Would there be more or less genocide happening?

I know we will actually never know. We do know how to try and hypothesize though.

Until we make a change in our electoral system there is always going to be this Turd Sandwich vs. Douchebag problem. If Trump wins the next election there will be 0 chance of change or reform for the betterment of the people. Without Trump there is a slightly greater than 0.

You will probably not actually stop to consider any of these things, I and the other fine folks have mentioned, while setting your bias aside and evaluating your position. But maybe, someone else reading through the threads here Will stop and think about some of the things being brought up here.

Even with the insane ease of communication we have now with the internet, we cannot as a country of human people, set aside our biases and figure out how to coordinate to any degree to show a mass/collective message.

I have said for decades, if we all just say “Fuck This” and vote for 3rd parties instead of the 2 picked for us it would send a message to those parties about what we actually want AND show us the power our vote really has when apply ourselves. We would need people to actually register to vote and then Vote! The amount of the population that does is fucking laughable though, so I guess they feel it’s fine, and that’s their vote too.

Virginia, Tennessee, Iowa and Kentucky still have policies that result in at least some US citizens being effectively shut out of democracy for life. Several other states, including Florida, Alabama and Arizona, predicate voting on having enough money to pay off court fines and fees – another barrier that makes it nearly impossible for low-income Americans to regain the right to vote.

Piping in with some odd history info. They were originally made to give theater patrons something to watch while the main film was re-wound. Theaters used to play the same movie on repeat all day until they got a new film, then it was that movie all day. There were no “move times”. If you showed up midway you just stayed until it repeated so you could catch the beginning. Also why news reels and other visual media would get played.

Psycho made the change to set times. Hitchcock did not want anyone to accidentally see the end without starting from the beginning. Shortly after that those movie trailers got bastardized into the ads we now know them as.

It’s still there but it is not the same. I spent waaay to many hours in weird places thanks to that stumble button. Still regularly go to KOL, which I found there.

I haven’t been to any outside the US, and admittedly not that many in, with how many there are. So far The Musical Instrument Museum in Phoenix has been one of the most interesting to me and I didn’t see it all by far. There is a “petting zoo” downstairs with a selection of instruments you can play too! It was crazy satisfying to bang a big gong.

Oh wow! The places they deem fit to try and cut corners. My manager at that hotel spent some time stuck in one our elevators after he"fixed" it himself and then had to have Otis come out.

Thankfully never, not sure how I would have recovered from that one! Did catch it pretending it was on fire a few times. It was alerting the local FD our alarms were triggered when on site, it was quiet an no burning was going on. They called a couple different times about it and even showed up once… in case I was lying? Bet safe than sorry I guess.

Might check into hotel reception too. I worked nights at one, and my main duty was making sure the building didn’t catch fire or disappear while waiting to do the audit and start morning coffee before I left.

Thanks! Some good info to know, when I go to try them!

Charcuterie’s are are always a win, especially with a bonus peanut butter sandwich!

I had to go look those up, I had not heard of them They look tasty but, damn they are a little pricey, at least in my area. Are they pretty good sized/filling?

If i have the time to wait on noodles, spaghetti is a staple. They even make frozen meatballs you can cook in the sauce while it heats up!

I have done the cup and my own bowl with it. I make sure to have my noodles broke in half in my bowl before I pour my water in, then egg. With the cup it gets a little messier because of space but still doable.

Totally replied to the wrong thought chain, I pour boiling water in my cup and drop the egg. Usually once it’s cool enough for me to handle, about 10mins-ish egg has cooked through

Yogurt and granola, with a side of nuts and cheese for an portable, decent protein, heavy snack/light meal. Or, salad with chopped lunch meat and some cheese on top, so I can again get some easy protiens. I also keep some decent frozen meals in case I’m short on cook time and need a hot heavy meal. There are work gaps where I can barely spend time at home and the bagged “family meals” of pasta or mixed veggies are awesome portioned out for multiple meals.

Add an egg to that shit, like an egg drop soup, omg!
