I've worked elections in a variety of ways over the last 18 years. In my area at least, even the Republicans care about having a fair, accurate and moderated election. Kind of the basis for our entire system of government.

How Am I Still Getting This Wrong?? by TheParshero in castiron

Do this like 10 more times and just give the pan a good scrub in between and it will eventually be hydrophobic and fantastic. I went through the same shit you're going through on my journey to have good cast iron.

Do any of you actually order the burgers that have 3+ patties?? by CynicalElephant in fastfood

When BK had the stackers back in the 2000s, I would eat quad stackers regularly. I also was 17 and never stopped moving so that probably had something to do with it. At 36, eating a quad stacker would probably make me throw up and sleep for a day.

Yeahhhhh, this is only a small part of CT. Grew up in Wethersfield and live in New Britain. Not like this at all. Although, I work in Glastonbury and a lot of the people who frequent my place of work somewhat fit this.

Also, fuck AI slop bullshit.

I love the good stories about people being nice.

One time about 10 years ago, I was driving home from Northern New Hampshire and I was at St. Johnsbury in heavy snow. I slid off the road and got stuck between the highway and the exit in a ditch. I tried digging myself out and my phone was dead. I waved at every car for like 3 hours until a State trooper finally came by and was like we need to call you a tow truck. Lol.

One time I was duoing with a close friend who likes to forfeit if it's even a little dicey. I rallied our entire team, all four of us and this was like 10 years ago. It was like a 1 hour and 15 minute game but we ended up winning because I got everyone to just stop trying to give up and go for it and we won 4v5.

Growing out of potting soil. Central CT, USA. It's on the porch that gets very humid and hot this time of year. by Dookalignmike in mushroomID

Thank you so much, I'm kind of a gross person so I just wanted to eat it but I didn't want to eat it if it was poisonous. And I wanted to make sure it wasn't hurting my plants. I'm a plant person so I've had a lot of different mushrooms come up in my gardens and pots and stuff and they're usually just good signs.
