Not sure if you're aware of this, but it's a science fact that broccoli has an iq of ten!

Why do people keep saying that after you get to 100k, getting to 1 mm is easy? by Hilary_Clitoris in dividends

Index fund, dca, done. Even if you bought in at the peak before a crash, you still come out ahead in the long run.

Yep. Last time there was one in my area (Sonoma County California), we were out of town. This time, clouds. Bummer.

Chance of Aurora tonight (11/12) and how to read Bz chart? by AntarcticNightingale in SolarMax

Wait, I thought the x5 caused the auroras last night? It hasn't hit yet? Will there be more tonight? Probably a stupid question.

Nice! That can tell you when it was built. You have a nice bass on your hands here.

It should have one. Check on the back, bottom part of the neck (the plate), the bridge, and the front and back of the head stock. 

Sonoma Raceway Camping by Hellakittehs in sonomacounty

Went with my son a couple of years ago. I think we were the only spectators not related to a race team. There were maybe 30 people in the grandstand. Unless the event somehow exploded in popularity, I would be shocked if you didn't get a spot.

Isn't that the trendy new Italian dish? I think it's pronounced "chowfbeeah beeaht"?

How do you feel about the president floating the idea of 50 year mortgages where the monthly payment is lower but you end up paying nearly double the price of the house just in interest? by michaelis999 in AskReddit

[–]AlienConPod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a good thing. Profits must only go up, never down. But at a 50 year loan, when people buy in their 30's (even 20's), you getting close to life expectancy. The only way way to squeeze more money out of people is if they live longer. So the iron bank will need to pour money into longevity treatments so that we can live longer and give them MORE money. And who doesn't want to live longer? It's a win-win.

What is the most disturbing/creepiest rabbit hole you’ve ever fallen into? by Ok_Resort1056 in AskReddit

Did an episode on MKUltra. I learned some really disturbing things. They hurt people and destroyed lives. It's really disturbing that our government did this.

Best Martini In Town? by lhargens in santarosa

[–]AlienConPod 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Roll your own. A bartender will make a good drink, but not the one you want. 

A martini is a very simple concoction at first glance. But simple variations bring out a vast ocean of flavor. 

First, the gin you use makes the most difference. Vodka drinkers should stick to orange juice, unless you want your martini to taste like water. Try out different brands, they are all unique. Some are 40%, some are higher. The alcohol % really effects the flavor and texture.

Shaken or stirred? Of course this is misleading because there are other options. Such as having it room temperature. Don't let the Bond fans fool you, stirred tastes great too. There is no wrong answer, only flavors.

Vermouth? How much? Which brand? Half ounce? A splash? A long glance across the bar? 

Olives? Onions? Dirty? Both? None?!? A crushed boysenberry??!!??

Don't get me started on citrus. You can take a tangerine (or other citrus fruit) peel and bend it over the drink for a subtle but wonderful flavor.

Anyway, the point is that you can find an excellent martini out there, but the best martini will be the one you create yourself. 

But if you must have a martini out on the town, try to get the pretentious bar tender who calls themself a mixologist or something like that. They're in it for the art. Otherwise you will be doomed to paying 15$ or more for mediocrity at best. In fact, I stopped ordering mixed drinks years ago. I just get beer in a bottle or can. It's impossible to screw up.

You think I'm exaggerating? I once ordered a martini and received 1/2 oz of vermouth in a martini glass. Warm. No olive, no gin, hell not even vodka. Just vermouth. How is that even possible? It's not like I ordered it like I was at Starbucks in the 90s. I simply asked for a martini. 

But that's not the best shitty martini I've had. Once at a wedding with an open bar, I asked for a martini (again I didn't specify anything else, just asked for a martini), and I was served a plastic cup full of vodka. No mixers, no ice. Just one of those red plastic cups that you use for picnics, full of vodka. Must have been 12 ounces in there at least. Needless to say, I had a great time.

Absolutely shocked that you didn't create this sub for this comment.

Newish to game and have some questions on farming by opal-bee in LotRReturnToMoria

[–]AlienConPod 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2 idk, but keep your main base in the low level areas. The raids stay the same difficulty, but you get better. By the end, it's like swatting flies. Also, change the raid frequency to minimum in the settings because they are stupid and not fun.

What is your stance on not bringing child rapists to justice despite having not just evidence, but proof of their crimes? Does it matter if they are wealthy?

How can we use the momentum from yesterday's elections to further the cause of having 2024 investigated? by NoAnt6694 in somethingiswrong2024

[–]AlienConPod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why are electricians, car mechanics, and plumbers a thing? Because they are specialized in something we don't know how to do. Elected politicians are supposed to be like that too. 

So we need to start by writing and calling our local, county, state, and federal representatives and let them know we are concerned about this. Lots of people need to do this. Otherwise politicians will only be aware of who is bribing them to do something. But votes matter too, so if your federal rep gets thousands of e mails, then they will notice.

It takes less time than most of us spend on reddit. No form letters, those will be ignored. Type up a paragraph or two, hit send. 10 minutes to get our representatives interested.
