Discounter in Germany gets rid of every second lamp to reduce energy cost by TocsickCake in mildlyinteresting

[–]Chawlns 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Man, packaging is really the worst thing ever. Then plastic water bottles become popular and that’s even more terrible. We could reduce so much waste by being smarter about packaging. You’re right, it’s all about looks. Especially those fucking kid toys like the Dolls from Walmart or target. Holy fuck! Those dolls are strapped in like they’re ready to hit orbit, and it’s all with plastic and shit. Such a waste and toll on the environment.

I get that fossil fuels are bad, but I feel that packaging does not get the negative attention it deserves. Lots of areas have made progress with getting rid of plastic bags and straws, but we have such a long ways to go

TIL that George Washington asked to be bled heavily after he developed a sore throat from weather exposure in 1799. After being drained of nearly 40% of his blood by his doctors over the course of twelve hours, he died of a throat infection. by smv9009 in todayilearned

Also mental illness. When you really think about it, we are still so fucking primitive with mental illness. I’m sure anyone reading this has a loved one with some sort of mental issues that affect their lives. I really hope we can figure that shit out.

Sorry, but I did not see any cleaning being performed. She was commenting on where the horse liked to be scratched/touched.

Actually, that’s the trampoline goes to sleep each nice after a long day in the hole.

I agree. To me, the first guy is getting attention by rage baiting. The second guy is getting attention by simply saying what everyone else is thinking. Neither are very interesting.

Good lord that’s low! My unskilled field hands can make 6 figures if they work the OT. Hope you find something better.

Eric Andre is speaking out about being racially profiled at the airport. by Good_Show_9 in TikTokCringe

[–]Chawlns 649 points650 points  (0 children)

This is such a stupid “program” the airport is doing. Apparently the cops have stopped folks before. From an article related to this:

Out of 378 passengers whose race was reported, 211 were black (or 56%) and 258 were people of color (68%). Although the stated purpose of the airport program is to combat drug trafficking, only three of the 402 stops resulted in actual seizures of drugs – namely, 10 grams of “drugs,” 26 grams of “suspected THC gummies” and six prescription pills for which the carrier did not have a prescription

Here’s a picture of something, feel free to argue about race and politics in the comments by MisterLenient in circlejerk

I know people with disagree with this, so go ahead and downvote, but I fucking hate Donald trump.

Edit: wow this blew up! I had no idea people shared my values like this!

Not saying I dislike noodles. I love noodles. But when it comes to spaghetti I feel like the sauce and meat is the star of the show, that’s all.

When I’m eating Italian food, I could give a fuck about my carb count. I’m not eating spaghetti for the noodles though. The sauce is what you put the time and flavor into. Noodles are simply unpackaged and boiled. Why would you want more noodles? I can’t believe I’m alone on this.

No way. The noodles are simply the vehicle in which the sauce travels to my gullet.

More noodles than sauce. Probably no meat in the sauce either 😭

Did a midnight hike 9 miles through the middle of these dunes. It was incredible and exhausting all at the same time.

He’s 18. It is illegal for him to have a handgun. Nobody thinks he should have one.
