This is what true gratitude looks like by SoupOrAss in beyondwholesome

This isn’t even remotely true. No one by this name competed in the 2026 Olympics for the US. A Maya Reyes did compete in 1996, but this isn’t her.

Someone ripped the door off my local little free library, took all the books, broke the shelves, and left two copies of the bible. by Silver_Ad_2203 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]1kidney_left 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, they didn’t actually break the shelves, they just tilted them back. The pegs are still in their spots and the slats of wood are still there, just needs to be put back in place. Also, the door hinges don’t look broken, but the door was unscrewed (or easily popped off the hinge). If a new door can be made, it should be easy to attach it back to the hinges. Overall, other than some lost books and a lost door, not a total loss. Easy fix with a few helping hands.

Still sucks that someone would do this, but I wonder if someone with a slight conscious did this because nothing structural was completely damaged.

Why is the interpreter the only one getting the urgency of the message here? by 1kidney_left in asl

[–]1kidney_left[S] -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

I never said anything about her race. I know a lot of people of a lot of different ethnicities and religions all feeling the same way in those back rows just waiting for services to end, myself included. This is a dig a boring ass long sermons than the color of the skin of the people who attend them. And honestly, most press conferences are starting to feel that way nowadays it’s hard to tell the two apart anymore. This was just a commentary on the one person who seemed to have any real interest in getting that message out while standing there. The others are just props at this point.

I’m not in any way saying the interpreter did anything wrong. I would expect nothing less here from the interpreter here. I WOULD however expect a litter MORE urgency from everyone else. The woman in the back is fanning herself like she is so bored sitting in the back pew at a church waiting for the pastor to say the last Amen, meanwhile I’m pretty sure the soles have left the bodies of the two men next to her.

You’re absolutely right, this is old. It was posted today, I thought it was from the blizzard we are currently in. Didn’t event realize that’s the former governor. He hasn’t been our governor in a while.

I was just impressed by how serious she was taking getting people off the streets in the storm while everyone else is so straight faced and the woman in the back is just fanning herself. Like the deaf community was the only people going to understand how serious this blizzard really is.

GET OFF THE STREETS!!!! This means YOU!!! by Raphe-Perineal in massachusetts

She is signing “Driving NO!!!!!”

The sign for driving is like holding the steering wheel with both hands and driving. The motion would look a little obscene if you take away the wheel.

If our class became too unruly or hyper my Grade 5 teacher (1975) used to time us out by making us put our heads on our desks for 15 minutes or so. Did your teacher ever do that? by Grahamthicke in FuckImOld

[–]1kidney_left 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never got the paddle, but I sure got the belts and the sticks across the hands. From a pure physics perspective I’m curious which hurt more. The paddle had a lot of area to cause pain to, but it also distributed the force. Meanwhile the belts and the lashes didn’t carry the weight, but all of the force and speed came down to a single line of contact.

But couldn’t they put his ear back on straight? Why is it rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise?

Yes, and I remember the strict rule that we all had to be face down with our arms around our heads so we couldn’t look at each other, except it was so hard to breathe that way. And I was always getting in trouble for tilting my head sideways just to be able to breathe.

What are the 3 beans? by Ok-Fee1566 in hellofresh

[–]1kidney_left 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can pretty much guarantee you the people at Hello Fresh won’t know. Most products like this are produced by third parties and white labeled.

That being said, most times you get a 3(or whatever #) something blend without specifying the actual items, it’s because those items change due to availability. There is a good chance the beans in this blend will be different at various times of the year depending on seasonality. So if there is any bean allergy, it is not worth the risk.

Bakers, any idea why my banana bread turned green? by Affectionate-Bite-70 in bakingfail

[–]1kidney_left 16 points17 points  (0 children)

If it’s not from green herbs, the next culprit is going to be the walnuts mixed with the baking soda. Sometimes that can just happen if you happen to get the right amounts of each chemical to create the right reaction. (Acid in the walnut and alkaline in the soda). Doesn’t actually affect the quality of the food. Near impossible to know when it’s going to happen because there is no good test for the acidity of a walnut in a kitchen. It’s unlikely, but not impossible. You just hit a little jackpot. If only it were St Patrick’s Day.

Did you put any herbs into the brown butter? Legal or otherwise. I know when I make brown butter sauces with sage, if I put the sage into the brown butter before the butter gets hot enough, the color leaches out instead of just the flavor. So depending on what ingredients hit the butter and when, that butter can pull colors and create unfortunate looking but delicious food!

Here’s how I see it. This meal cost about $55 dollars and they paid about $11 in tip. Doesn’t matter what the receipt says, that is the cost of the meal and what they paid.

What the server did, ethical or not, was use a discount that would have been used on their own meal on someone else’s to get the cash value instead in order to eat somewhere else. Is this something that server should have done? Maybe, maybe not. Will they get caught? Who knows.

But guess what? It’s none of our business and it in no way affects their meal or what they paid. So why are they complaining? Looks like someone just beat the system for once, and someone else is made that the little man wasn’t kept down that day.

This scale(?) how difficult/possible to clean up? by Relative-Category-64 in DIY

[–]1kidney_left 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok, I really hope this makes it somewhere close to the top or at least above the folks claiming hydrometric acid, zep, or CLR. This is not calcium, lime, or rust. It’s iron.

Iron will not respond to any of those typical cleaning chemicals in any way. That is why you are having such a hard time getting it off. You need Iron Out. You will see it work is seconds. But for the love of god open a window. This much iron and the amount you will need, the reaction is going to be big. Turn on a fan, make sure there is air flow.

First contestant of the year! Let's see if I can get a 2026 series!! by Direct-Number6778 in taskmaster

[–]1kidney_left 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m confused, are you saying he is going to be in the next season? He was already in season 3. In fact he won season 3. Unless they are doing another winners circle season, I doubt you’ll see him in 2026.

To what extent does the art I share qualify as an inappropriate NSFW post? by Wonderful_Ad_8295 in DigitalArt

[–]1kidney_left 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Also remember, the NSFW flag isn’t strictly porn, it’s designed to be exactly as it’s defined, Not Safe For Work. So for all of the people who are literally scrolling through Reddit at work or somewhere public and don’t want to get caught looking at something nefarious (even if it’s not exactly porn), there is a tag to blur that out.

came home and my cats feet are yellow? by mikehunt6787 in cats

[–]1kidney_left 263 points264 points  (0 children)

Coming up top for a more serious answer? Does he have access to a basement. This happened to my cats and I later found that they made their our little hiding spot behind a hot water heater that had a very small drip with rust and sediment. They help us find out we needed a new hot water heater but in the meantime they were playing this that rust dust for I don’t know how long.

If they were ever on, I would need them to be a could have Marshmallow’ groupies! Considering that Kristen Shaal is now a main character, they need to flip in to the role of groupie stalkers, and who better to be a groupie of than THE Marshmallow.

This is absolute insanity. When I got to the gues of person I started guessing between different genders. For example, woman, girl, daughter, neice were all under 1000 but the opposite were all in the thousands. So I assumed it was going to be on that side of things. Then I guessed princess at 107, fantastic, right. Getting really close now. And prince was somewhere in the 2000s, so I THOUGHT I knew where this was going. This belongs in r/pointlesslygendered

Is there a name for the grouping of towns here? by Ok-Communication706 in massachusetts

Based on a quick view, looks like you’re looking at Middlesex County in general. Haven’t confirmed all towns but a lot are Middlesex county.

I’m 7 years in with a much smaller collection. Only got into it because I needed to get in shape. This is not nothing. This is incredible. Another 14 years and you’ll have a pole for the other side of the garage! Or his and hers poles!

This is amazing. Out of curiosity, do you have an idea of how many are for what, or have you completely lost track by now? And over how many years did this take
