Then take your posts down and stop spreading misinfo.

She, but thank you, this was my point exactly.

I speak the language fluently; that’s not the problem.

It’s the fact that there are a much smaller number of books available on most topics because the country is so small.

Libraries with access to the enormous amount of English language content are usually only found in English speaking countries, though.

Good luck finding more than a few books on niche topics in, say, Dutch (ask me how I know).

I deeply regret not hanging onto my US library card.

It doesn’t matter how “well-behaved” protesters are. They will find a way to declare it an unlawful protest.

Would have? He did!

The problem is that he joined the especially notoriously infamously corrupt and evil side, dumbass.

Oh no, poor guy had literally no choice but to participate in a corrupt system by going into politics and becoming a mayor 😭

Get the fuck outta here.

I mean I can’t speak for anyone else, but I absolutely love a good infodump! Nothing gets me excited about a topic like listening to someone who is clearly so enthusiastic and passionate about it. It’s one of the best parts of life. Thanks again and I hope you continue!

So true. Spend any amount of time with domesticated or wild animals, and you’ll realize how they all have unique personalities, preferences, habits, sensitivities and quirks, just like people do. I fully believe they have feelings just like us, even if they probably can’t think about them in the same way we do. I think we are much more alike than we are different.

I’m loving all the bonus facts, thanks so much!

She/he looks coy 🥲

You absolutely should, it’s a glorious bottomless rabbithole.

Some recipes depend on the dough being mixed just until the ingredients are combined, and not any longer. Other commenters are saying that overmixing cookies can warm the butter too much. With some recipes, like muffins, mixing creates gluten chains that lead to chewey-ness and toughness. So in order to avoid that you stop mixing asap.

Baking is a chemical reaction and the quantities, order, and methods really do have a huge impact on the result!

What makes you think people are fine with it? ISPs have monopolies over service areas and can do whatever the fuck they want. They have monopolies because of corporate lobbying. No amount of voting gets these corrupt fucks out of office bc votes literally do not matter and there’s only two parties, they’re both to the right of center, and they’re both bought and sold. Just to really make sure, we’re all taught from birth that the US is peak civilization and all other countries are backwater shitholes.

Jim Croce. He died relatively early in his career and was already an amazing songwriter. What could he have written with more time?

Yeah, I only had a handful of CDs because they were too expensive! I jumped on the napster train and got a CD burner as soon as I could.

You have to be brain dead to think there’s democracy in the US. Gerrymandering, voter suppression, two senators per state, the electoral college… Wake up.

You have to be sick in the head to be a conservative.

The standard price where I grew up was $13. Feels like a steal these days.
