I’m someone who puts all sweets in the freezer/fridge, and just realize that some become borderline inedible with this.

9th

Crunchwrap Supreme and drench it in Diablo Sauce with every bite!

Its my go to order!

She was a very pretty kitty, the blep is adorable! And Id’d wager very loved as well!

A good life for a good furbaby! Very sorry for your loss though, its heart breaking!

Me too. I legit thought this was going to be a BS dream sequence. Fantastic turn.

I fucking wish every state could. Texas law makes it pretty much impossible to get abortion access on the ballot. Abbott and crew knew exactly what they were kicking off when they signed their “heartbeat bill” pre RvW reversal. They knew they were laying thw groundwork to turn women into brood mares.

Our ballot initiatives need to come from our legislature itself, and then the voters get to say “Yeah I like that”, or “Nah not about it”.

“For Texans to gain a direct say in changing these policies, the GOP-run Texas Legislature would need to pass a proposed constitutional amendment, which voters would then need to approve. (This yay-or-nay procedure is the only statewide policy-making power that regular Texans currently enjoy; voters weighed in on 14 such proposals from the Legislature Tuesday). One reason the Lege doesn’t want to give voters the initiative is fairly obvious: It would mean relinquishing some power—and giving interest groups a way to pass laws without lining elected officials’ pockets.”

As someone currently serving, it fucking boggles my mind that anyone who has ever served could be in favor of the Republican party. Even without Project 2025 threatening veteran benefits.

So many of us have been to actual locations where the Church has a stranglehold on the government/is the government. My husband has stories from Afghanistan. I went to Qatar, which, is a “progressive” middle eastern country. I could wear tshirts and knee length shorts, but I was also not allowed to ride in an elevator with the opposite sex, and I was heavily questioned when I tried to buy cigarettes until a male coworker intervened and assured that I could. Not to mention the FUCKING INSANE wealth disparity. Palaces gilded in gold for the government/rich/churches and literal shacks made out of whatever material could be cobbled together in the rural areas outside of Doha.

Why the fuck would anyone who has seen that first hand want to support anything that could even remotely resemble a world like that?

Until this thread, I didnt realize so many Lemmy users had an issue with Flying Squid. Perhaps its because I tend to agree with a lot of his takes, but I just find him abrasive at worst. Like…unafraid to not sugarcoat an uncomfortable truth.

Dudes definitely everywhere though.

Idk where you are in Texas, but it’s been pretty mild here in South-Central. Humid af though due to all the unusual rain, but it’s been keeping the actual temp below 100 for most of it.

When I was a teen my answer was always 69/Ya Mom/Everywhere.

Man, back then I always thought I was so witty with that bs.

A/S/L?

Glad to know it’s not just me! Kilo and Quebec makes sense, given that both start with that hard K sound and theyre both words associated with the NATO alphabet. I could easily see struggling with that one too if not for the Bloodhound Gang teaching me “Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo” early on in my youth.

I have no idea what it is with the letter “I” that throws me off. I’ve been using this alphabet since I joined the military ~15 years ago, and for some reason “I” still turns into “Igloo”, “Indigo” or “Israel” most of the time. It’s just that one singular letter that I can never remember!

Right?! I was like “OH no. I haven’t even finished my coffee yet. I am NOT ready to start my day this way!” 🤣

Depends on your reaction to the new Dem nominee tbh.

Don’t worry, those of us Americans who don’t have their heads up their asses are just as baffled as you are and 3 times as embarrassed that Trump is even an option again.

I am in a fucking loop of laughter and tears because I don’t even know what to do anymore.

This is super sad. I’m not a Houston resident, but I heard her speak when she opened for the Women’s Convention in Houston in Fall 2022. Very motivated individual, very optimistic about the fight for equality, and knew how to get a crowd hyped out of their depression. Adored her.

I can picture that tiny Tabasco bottle clearly 😂. It was a godsend in basic training (for any MRE that came with them) I’m not sure if I had a new iteration of the chili mac or what, but when I was quarantined in 2020, mine came with crushed red pepper instead. I know for a fact I’ve had it with the Tabasco too though.

Not who you asked but I’m pretty partial to the chili Mac, especially if you got some hot sauce to drizzle on it! It’s the one I look for first whenever we’re given some to choose from!

The Regular Show. Mostly means I’m going to tap the nearest person to me to present all questions/answers in a synchronized choreographed song and dance.

IRL tho, ever since watching Letterkenney, all my friends and I do the fancy “To be fair” thing constantly.

Easily my favorite Adam Sandler movie.
