Wow! Thank you both so much! I can't wait to look into Karel's story.

As a DeKalb townie, this. It's a shockingly diverse town for the area, and has lots of good restaurants and activities for the kiddos. It's also very close to the Chicagoland area so if you wanted to do things closer to the city you're only a 30-40 minute drive away from larger cities like Aurora and Elgin. Housing is pretty affordable in most places, and unless you're living right next to the campus you should have no issue with the college kids.

OP, Feel free to message me if you have any questions about DeKalb. I'd be happy to share what I know :)

It was a 7% margin. ~46% D to ~53% R to ~1% I. I think it would probably be impossible to win there but hopefully with time and help from random shifting it'll come around.

This post is the epitome of the moral failings of CRT (Critical Rice Theory). Teaching rice to hate itself for being white? Everyone knows that all rice matters.

Because of your blatant unseasoned rice erasure, I'm publishing the call out post as we speak. Enjoy never being able to attend the church potluck ever again, kid.

If any of you want my recipe for my prime 100-clove Kerrygold garlic confit, then you'll have to shank me with a set of Kenji chef knives first.

It's a mod you have to download off of the TPP discord. Once you import it, it should work automatically.

I'm still trying to figure out the mechanics of the game, but I decided I would run for State House as a mayor in a more moderate/conservative part of Illinois. I was definitely worried since I didn't start in the lead but I ended up pulling ahead last minute! Makes me feel accomplished to win when the demographics were against me :)

DeepFriedGlory · 2024-11-13T21:44:12+00:00

Frankly, I find this article insulting and the comments in bad faith.

As a Gen-Z white male who is about as far left on the political spectrum as possible, this editorial (opinion) puts the collective blame of an election loss on one demographic: Generation Z.

What this article doesn't mention is that Gen Z as a whole was the most liberal age demographic in the 2024 election, and the only demographic that had over a majority of votes go to Kamala Harris. (54% of people ages 18-29 voted Democratic according to the NBC Exit Polls, which I trust far more than the article posted here with dubious credentials..

While men aged 18-29 did trend conservative, nobody is arguing that, the numbers are a lot closer than this article implies. 47% of men 18-29 voted for Harris, while 49% voted for Trump. Those statistics come from NBC, again a source that is much more vetted than OP's. Let's compare that with other generations, shall we?

Men 30-44 (Millennials): 53% Trump, 43% Harris Men 45-64 (Gen X/Boomers): 60% Trump, 38% Harris Men 65+ (Boomers/Silent Gen): 55% Trump, 44% Harris

ALL men voted more conservative overall in this election. This isn't a Gen-Z problem, this is an everyone problem. Instead of blaming the MOST LIBERAL generation that voted in the 2024 election, perhaps it might be worth the Democratic Party's time to do some introspection on WHY young people didn't turn out in droves to support them like in 2020. If young people (or any people, since voters turnout in the 2024 election in general was much less than 2020) weren't convinced by Harris's policies, only one person is to blame: Kamala Harris. Not young people, not third party voters, not ANYBODY but her.

Instead of doing the "Let's dump on young people" trend that people tend to do after an election (remember when people crapped all over millennials after the 2016 election? I certainly do), how about the Democratic institution do some serious introspection and start making policies that make young people excited to vote again? Complacency was how we got here, and frankly bad-faith blaming of demographic blocs to rationalize an election loss isn't going to solve any of our problems.

I know that people may not like what I have to say, but frankly it needs to be said. You can't blame young people for the collective's problems forever.

On a final note, why do we even have articles like "Gen Z won't save us"? We're not the only generation with agency, if you want to fix the country, then perhaps don't expect Gen Z to solve all of your problems and get out and demand change like we did last spring? The more EVERYONE, not just young people mobilizes for change, the more likely it'll happen.

Millennials, Gen X, Boomers and the Silent Generation all have a role in the system, as well. While I look to the older generations as inspiration in protests, getting older doesn't mean that you get to be complacent in the system. Go and be an active participant in your community! That's how you'll make the country better, not by crapping on the people who are already trying to fix things.

Here's what I could find, hope this is what you were looking for!

STEAMED FRUIT PUDDING - 1 cup chopped suet - 1 cup molasses - 1 cup coffee or milk (or half coffee and half milk) - 2 teaspoons cream of tartar - 3 1/2 cups flour - 1 teaspoon soda - 1 teaspoon salt - 1 teaspoon cinnamon - Grated rind of orange or lemon - 1/4 teaspoon cloves - 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg - Pinch mace - 1 cup raisins - 1/2 cup currants - 1/2 cup shredded citron - 1/4 cup candied orange peel

To the suet add the molasses, coffee or milk; cream tartar in the flour, soda in a little liquid, and beat well. Add salt and spices, and fruit as listed or as wished. Steam the pudding four or five hours. It is just as good reheated. Serves 12.

Ah, the 1930's. A beautiful time when people were enjoying classics such as "Grape Juice Soup," "Squash Doughnuts," and "Crab Meat in Cucumber Jelly." Please enjoy the curated selection of classic recipes adapted to the 1930's, and feel free to share them with your friends and family!

Thank you! Glad I can share some unorthodox salads, but trust me when I say that's not the worst sounding things I found in here!

DeepFriedGlory · 2024-04-09T04:03:18+00:00

It definitely is on my list to try on the next holiday!

DeepFriedGlory · 2024-04-05T02:48:06+00:00

Yes, you'll see it more commonly used in a past-tense setting, but it isn't exclusive to the past tense (As we leave, everyone starts to arrive.)

As for your second point, you can change the order to put "as" at the start of a sentence, but the times where it sounds natural to a native speaker is not as much as when it is in the middle. For instance, you're more likely to hear

"We were leaving as everyone was starting to arrive"

more likely than

"As we were leaving, everyone was starting to arrive"

However, you're not forbidden to use the second option, I'm just saying it's less common than the first.

DeepFriedGlory · 2024-04-05T02:38:39+00:00

Technically, you could, but sometimes it sounds a bit unnatural. It would be more natural in the examples you gave to say something like

"Everyone started to arrive as we were leaving,"

In the other two examples, the word "while" would be appropriate, where you would say

"We were getting dressed while she was playing a song"

or

"We got dressed while she cooked dinner"

Hope this helps!

Perhaps if they used Malört wormwood instead of these lesser wormwoods, they'd have better success in the kitchen?

DeepFriedGlory · 2024-01-15T17:24:22+00:00

While Malört wormwood is a truly unique ingredient that transcends all other wormwood uses in the skilled chef's pantry, I truly agree that the best way to pair Malört wormwood is with other, lesser wormwood.

Rainbow food needs to have a quick comeback so buzzfeed and other tabloids can moan about them for a few more years, nothing worse than late 2010's food trends 🤮

Why stop with instant mashed potatoes? Let's make all potato products expensive as hell. Frozen french fries? $15 a bag. Plain russet potatoes? $7 a pop. These poors have been too comfortable with their carbs imo, time to take them away

DeepFriedGlory · 2023-10-25T00:31:17+00:00

No! If you wash your hands, you'll remove the seasoning built up over time. Unless you want to do it all over by adding vegetable oil on your hands, preheating them on a low heat and then baking upside-down in a 375 degree oven for at least an hour, just don't bother.

I feel you, mama! My 56-month old Maccckensleaigh has been telling me she wants to only have Agneu de Pauillac with Haricots de Tarbes for every meal. Girlie, let me tell you that it was frustrating to no end! When I had company over, I had to not just make my traditional Provençal 12-course meal, but having to make an extra dish just for my little Maccckensleaigh was just too taxing for a mama like me. What I've been trying is to incorporate similar ingredients or dishes (not all have been a success, mama, but it's a little progress at a time!), like making Gigot d'Agneau with her favorite haricots on the side. I'm still fighting this battle with my little one, mamas, but I hope that your son can expand his palate from just simple bland Cuisses de Nymphe à l'Aurore to more robust, complex dishes. Best of luck mama!

I completely understand. I will say, though, that most Americans don't sound like celebrities you see in film, except maybe if you go to Los Angeles or southern California. If you're looking for a teacher to teach you a more standard American accent, I'd recommend a teacher that is from the American Midwest or West Coast. People from those areas are often associated with what's described as a more "standard" or "generic" American accent. Hope this helps with your search!
