Maybe she thought she could “fix” him. Still stupid

I live somewhere where I have access to dozens of restaurants within a 5 minute drive and I can order ahead to avoid waiting. Cooking really is not an activity I enjoy so I have no interest in practicing unless I have to. That is not to say I never have food at home. I regularly make healthy super smoothies, sandwiches loaded with greens, prepared salads, and whole grain cereals. I wouldn’t consider that cooking though.

I’m not looking to invalidate the experience of anyone who is good at or enjoys cooking. Just sharing my opinion that this is one area that is very commonly recommended for saving money that I personally don’t find worth my time.

I feel this way about cooking. I hate cooking. It takes a lot of time. And lots of cleanup time. And time spent planning and shopping. Plus the tools, ingredients, and power/gas/water used all cost money. With all that in mind, a $9 bowl of chipotle is significantly cheaper by my estimation than cooking an equivalent myself.

Doesn’t necessarily mean it’s cheaper for a bad reason though. There are often instances where the cheaper option can also be the better option.

And is unlikely to be achieved by 42 f16s. Don’t get me wrong, this is fantastic news, but it would take many many more f16s and/or more sophisticated jets and more air defenses to establish air superiority.

I haven’t seen much discussion about it, but I think F15s for Ukraine would be incredibly helpful. F15s have a very powerful radar with excellent standoff and air-to-ground capabilities. I think they would go a loooong way to keeping Russian jets behind their air defenses, and slowly picking off those air defenses.

The apology video came out before the sexual harassment accusations.

Probably so that the 3 hinges can be at the standard heights on the tall side of the door. The short side would have cut off the top hinge. But yeah, would have been nicer to chisel out custom spacing for the hinges on the short side

Well, that’s good. Unfortunately lots of people don’t vote in the primary, and then complain about their options in the general election.

I don’t expect you to give a shit about my feelings. Was just hoping maybe you or someone reading this might come around to the idea that realistically, there are only two options outcomes, and we should avoid the fascistic one at all costs.

For the record, my feelings are that I’d really like to see younger people in office too, but I’m not gonna shoot myself (and the country) in the foot over it.

Falsely implying there has been no climate action, vehemently opposing their candidate over his age, and refusing to vote for them seems a bit aggro toward the party 🤷‍♂️

That’s how our FPTP system works. Twist yourself into a pretzel all you want. The reality is, if you want to preserve a functioning democracy in this country and have even the slightest chance of improving it one day, you have only one real option (hint: it’s not a third party and it’s definitely not the orange fascist).

You, and everyone with your mindset, will have failed America.

Cool, do that in the next primary, but for now let’s pick one of the real options on the table.

Um… Inflation Reduction Act?

I just think it’s tremendously stupid to attack the Democratic party from the left and then cast a vote (or fail to vote altogether) that makes it more likely to end up with a Republican government that is even further right. Seriously. It’s fucking braindead. Your options are mildly left, or far right. Far left ain’t on the table. So pick the mildly left. Then in the next PRIMARY, vote far left (or young, whatever it is you want).

You’re clinging to a pipe dream. People like you are how we end up with Trump.

That’s how you piss away your vote and end up with a second Trump term…

Aquariums

The IRA does have provisions for home electrical upgrades to accommodate electrification projects. You don’t really need a fancy fast charger at home though since you can just slow charge overnight. Better for the battery that way.

As far as apartments go, I don’t think landlords need any government handouts… Maybe there should be legislation to require X many chargers by X date for apartment complexes over X number of residents.
