Same. I’ve been using KISS for years. It would feel weird to use anything else at this point.

Nah, there was actual effort put into TempleOS.

Fitness Adventure Pro for the Switch. Is it an amazing game? No. But it is a fitness game, which means I can get a workout without any equipment to set up and break down, and without having to leave my house. I’ve only been using it a few weeks and I can already feel a difference.

The “tastes worse from a press” is entirely dependent on the material of the press you’re using. Garlic reacts with stainless steel, hence those stainless steel “soap bars” they make to remove garlic smell from your hands. I got a zinc press for this exact reason.

I don’t know, but apparently people had some way of managing.

the tribe will leave me behind on the next migration when I’m too old and weak to keep up.

FWIW, this part is almost certainly not true.

These are just a handful of these types of stories, there’s loads more if you want to search for them. But the upshot is: your family or tribe would have taken care of you to the best of their ability, for as long as they could, and you would have been given a decent burial when you died.

Your best bet might be to try and pivot to in-person college/university if possible. You didn’t say where you are in the world, but in the US, most schools will have on-campus housing you’d be able to stay in for most of the year. The financial part is always the limiting factor of course, but considering how violent your brother can get, it may be worth it. It’s a lot easier to recover from student loan debt than being dead.

Which version?

Really surprised no one’s mentioned Everclear, but that might just be because no one thinks about Everclear that much

The odds of these two deeply weird incidents being isolated in a case like this is about 1%

You’re probably right

Honest to God, I thought a “Librephone” was something that already existed. I think I was thinking of the PinePhone or smth.

My late cat (the one in my pic) REALLY wanted my grocery-store sushi one time, but I didn’t give her any, so she decided to lick a big ol’ glob of the wasabi.

She didn’t like it.

I believe that guideline is only for perishable food like cooked foods, meat, etc. For shelf-stable things like bread and most fruits/veggies, it’s basically “do they look OK?”

Omnivore, southeast USA.

When I worked in food service, I was taught that it takes four hours at room temperature for bacteria to reach dangerous levels in food, so that’s what I go with. I assume there’s other factors at play, but four hours is easy to remember and apply and I don’t like to take chances with that stuff.

…well, I was gonna say porn but I actually like your idea better.

I block pretty freely, on all social media. Being both trans and religious means that people on any part of the political spectrum might think I’m subhuman, and I don’t see the point of engaging when that’s the case.

Them’s pants

Phone in right front, keys in left front, wallet in back right. If there’s only two pockets, keys and wallet go together in left pocket. If I have a bag I might toss my keys in it but I probably won’t. If I’m wearing a jacket or coat then the keys and phone will probably end up in the left and right pockets, respectively, but I will still reflexively try to find them in my pants pockets and then go “oh wait, right.”
