23·6 months agoI don’t think he knows about second tax breaks.

3·7 months agoMy boiled egg slicer. It seemed really frivolous when I bought it, and I probably only use it five or six times a year at best but man if it doesn’t cut down prep time for any salad with boiled egg in it, it also works with avocados!
@yamapikariya I feel like there’s a distinction to be made between Americans _visiting _a city and the people that live there.
For instance, when I lived in the SF Bay Area, ques for services locals used were efficient and well-ordered unless jackass tourists were involved. IIRC (it’s been a while), everyone standing on the BART escalators would be on the left, leaving the right half of the escalator for people in a hurry to walk up or down the stairs. But mix in a few American tourists and it was just willy nilly people everywhere.
7:00 AM? All locals, everything is good. 1:00 PM? Good fucking luck.
Tourists also don’t seem to understand or CARE that the city they’re visiting has to run somehow, and they meander around on the sidewalks oblivious to everyone else like they’re in a theme park.
TL;DR - - Americans know how to queue, they just don’t do very well when they’re out of their element in unfamiliar places.
@httpjames Back in the day I liked to dabble in Linux, and I always liked the IT people in the larger firms I worked at so I imagine it’s understanding basics of code, and then a lot of googling for fixes to problems people have already dealt with, composting code with templates and tweaking it to work with the specifics of the job at hand and then taking credit for saving everything because people are dumb.
@Belzebubulubu All of Jazz plus Rock and Roll and Hip Hop?
@WoodenBleachers But his sources were Norse, primarily, so by extension the argument can be made that the characters should all have Scandinavian accents.
@GentlemanLoser That’s some weird assed etymology on that word. But at least I’m not a dick about being correo.
@SeahorseTreble I’d say say “no thanks, I’m sober” I guess but I’d definitely invite you golfing (it’s teatotal, like the beverage, not teetotaler). 😉
@stopthatgirl7 She also ended up with slightly frizzy hair compared to her relatively straight hair.
All around messed up and creepy.
@whenigrowup356 Yup. And then you have the New World animals where we use the name of the animal for both the animal and the meat, like buffalo.
I just fell in love with West Virginia a few weeks back. So beautiful and while not a blue state, exactly, the people there were so welcoming and kind.
I’d say the best places to reside in Michigan are going to be in the lower half of the Lower Penninsula if you want a temperate climate. Doesn’t mean winter won’t fuck your shit up at least two or three times a year.
Beautiful nature spots are a day trip or long weekend away and quite lovely, though smaller in scale than the sprawling, mountainous naturescapes of California. We don’t have anything quite as epic as Big Sur, Lake Tahoe, or the Redwoods here (souece: Michigander lived 13 years in the Bay Area), but we do have some very lovely areas and they’re imo much more accessible for the average Joe. Oh yeah and when fall comes in, the color is AMAZING. It’s a rather flat state all in all, though. Most places you have to drive to see anything rolling lamdscape-wise. It makes winter with all of the leaves off of the trees rather bleak if you’re in sputhern Michigan.
But, there’s a lot of interesting lore that you don’t really get anywhere else like Great Lakes shipping/shipwrecks, bootlegging hotspots, a fucking shit-ton of musical history, tons of breweries and local agricultural festivals. If you’re willing to pick and choose your urban areas, you can definitely find those spaces that have a Californian vibe about them, but they’re not really centralized.
@Greedy_Refugee I could not figure out Soundgarden. I would have drawn a more botanical garden looking thing if I was the artist. I was all “music plants? Note field? Field notes? Music plot?”
@EndOfLine That’s exactly the look my cat gives me while he’s knocking knicknacks off of the spice rack.
@Lord_Fluffington this angle doesn’t look real to me. At this point JFK has pretty much half his head blown off and Jackie wasn’t trying to get away.
Morbidly enough it’s pretty obvious if you watch the Zapruder footage that she’s having an irrational traumatized response and trying to gather up all of the bits and pieces of his head that had been blown off.
Super fucked up, really.
