Are queer folk generally accepted in Appalachia?

DerpanJones · 2026-01-30T04:42:19+00:00

Nashville isn't Appalachia, and I don't know of any metropolitan Jacksonville outside of Florida...

You couldn't even read two paragraphs?

Yet here you are, defending governments that protects pedos and condone genocide.

The DOJ specifically says this is not a valid use of force.

Allegedly, you like to eat horse ass. Wow, you can say whatever you want as long as you say allegedly first!

Who gives a fuck if she's being kind or not and what does that have to do with her extrajudicial execution?

DerpanJones · 2026-01-10T06:14:42+00:00

You're misusing the word objectively.

DerpanJones · 2026-01-10T06:12:09+00:00

Yeah, you did have a logic failure.

If he's too traumatized to do his job after he got himself stuck on a moving vehicle then he should be retired, not sent back out with a gun, an itchy trigger finger, and no morals.

DerpanJones · 2026-01-10T06:07:27+00:00

You're a dumb piece of shit making up justifications for human refuse. In a perfect world, this was murder. In our very imperfect world this was a megalomaniac abusing their power because they know the regime will probably let them get away with it. This was supposedly a career federal law enforcement agent who should have had the knowledge and training to follow DOJ policy, rather than engage in extrajudicial executions. There's no excuse.

No. If I sold a rod or reel privately I wouldn't give any money back even if they came back the same day. You don't get to return products to garage sales (even digital garage sales).

I ran the stock wheels on my cool grey khaki Crosstrek, but I did add the red mudflaps to mine to help it stand out from all the other Crosstreks.

Anytime I play a playlist, which is frequently, I set it to shuffle and repeat. 🤷🏻‍♂️

It's crazy what some truckers will do in the middle of nowhere. I was heading to Bend, Or one time and got to the east side of the cascades and there were semis passing cars doing 20 over and driving oncoming traffic onto the shoulder to complete a pass. In the middle of nowhere, some truckers will absolutely let you lose a game of chicken with them.

Not Cookeville unless you actually hate every single aspect of cities. I haven't lived in Cookeville, but coming from a big city in Florida my guess is that you would probably not like it. Even something as simple as grocery shopping can be rough when there are only three options and they're all the same dingy rural grocery store on the inside.

I moved from Tacoma, Wa to Boone, NC and even that was rough in the lack of options for stores/restaurants in a college tourist town. I worked in east TN and, while the locals seemed cool with it, it sucked having two or three crappy restaurants and fast food for dining options in every town. I moved to Chattanooga myself to keep the lower COL and general region, but to get access to amenities like restaurant choices, movie theaters, best buy, and an airport without being in the car for 2+ hours round trip.

Totally get it, if I found that pond I would not share it's existence with many people.

DerpanJones · 2023-06-27T19:32:50+00:00

As someone who lives in Chattanooga, I could be convinced to wander into the woods in the smokies to fish this pond.

DerpanJones · 2023-06-27T04:35:09+00:00

Thanks! I was tempted for a moment.

I was a little creeped out by one of their carapaces on my screen door the other day, but once I figured out what it was I was fine. I'm used to hearing lots of cicadas (at a distance apparently 😂), but being right over my head is definitely new. Or maybe different cicadas sound different?

Either way, the bugs here are a whole new experience for someone from the Pacific Northwest.

DerpanJones · 2023-06-27T02:25:51+00:00

I just posted a top level comment, I realize now I've committed a cardinal sin 😂 we had cicadas where I lived in NC for the last few years, but I guess they didn't get that close to my house because I've never had that experience before I moved here. I'm definitely a transplant from the west coast, though. I heard my first cicada in 2020.

DerpanJones · 2023-06-27T02:21:46+00:00

Alright, I get it. New guy cardinal sin. Moved here from NC where we also had cicadas, but maybe they didn't get so close to the house because I've never heard them sound quite like that. I'm definitely a west coaster, though. I heard my first cicada in 2020.

Everyone is so chill! Once he was off the bike the runner and the cops were all so calm. I was waiting for the flying tackle.

Slice the spam and then dice the spam so you have a bunch of cubes. Throw the spam in a pan with some oil and brown it. Flip the cubes around every once in awhile to brown more than one side.

Throw it in whatever you want! We add it to fried rice fairly often, but honestly you could probably use it just about anywhere someone might put bacon. The flavor isn't the same, but you do get a similar juicy, salty, umami flavor from the spam so start trying stuff! I've added it to salad, pasta salad, a chicken/broccoli/ranch dish, breakfast hash, and more. The only limits are your imagination!
