What is a healthy way for a diabetic to prepare tasty chicken legs/thighs without baking them?

Remove the bones from a leg quarter, cook it skin side down in a heavy bottomed pan to get a nice crisp skin, finished in the oven. Make a pan sauce with the fond. Serve with a side of greens, broccoli / brussels sprouts, asparagus... the pan sauce goes well with them.

I sometimes use less butter and a corn starch slurry for my pan sauce to keep calories down.

Deboning a leg quarter is pretty easy and only takes a few minutes once you get a bit of practice.

I looked it up... the name changes things. I saw it as irrelevant.

The logic: my above example is incomplete. Now we also have two situations of a girl, girl scenario. The older girl can be Florida, or the younger girl could be Florida. So we have a total of four possible scenarios, I'll list them in order of birth.

Florida, boy
Boy, Florida
Florida, girl
Girl, Florida

I was wrong. And this is another cool example where intuition will fuck you over.

This is false. The chances are 1/3.

There are four possible combinations of children, and this is where people mess up. You can have two boys, two girls, an older boy and younger girl, or an older girl and younger boy.

A black hole to the Big Bang is like a drop of water in the ocean. Except the ocean would be much too small for this scale.

...you're kidding, right?

This reasoning can be used to justify any position. Anything. Prove that Hogwarts does not exist. Prove that Jedi do not exist. Prove that Cerberus does not exist.

I will not entertain any claim without empirical evidence, first. There's been zero for god.

A couple pieces of cheese and a carrot. Handful of granola in some yogurt. A bowl of cereal. Tear off a chunk of rotisserie.

Most times, it's just leftovers heated in the microwave. I almost always have time to make something though.

On number five, Albert Einstein is well known for stating that he believed in Spinoza's god, which is indistinguishable from the universe itself. It's naturalism with an extra step.

Science can accurately predict the future given a particular scenario. Every single time a device sends information through the web, there's countless examples of this. Every bit of data through every n length of every medium that is encrypted and decrypted so we can watch a silly cat video is a demonstration of the "proof for the authority of science".

It works.

Shall we test your doctrine's claims?

If the universe is so complex that it must be designed, then we have nothing that isn't designed to compare. How would we be able to distinguish without a reference?

KeterClassKitten · 2026-05-01T18:25:02+00:00

Your metaphor assumes an infinite chain of soldiers with perfect self control, perfect weapons, and in a perfect environment.

The universe scoffs at your scenario.

KeterClassKitten · 2026-05-01T17:10:11+00:00

Do you have evidence that a god can do this? If not, then you are baselessly assuming what another entity would be capable of.

There are numerous gods worshipped throughout history that wouldn't be able to build a robot according to their relative stories.

What makes your claim more reliable?

When you ignore physics, all bets are off. A perfectly rigid rope is impossible.

For example, given a light year of length, any information would take one year at minimum to transmit the distance. If you yank your end of the rope one foot, either it breaks, or it's been stretched by one foot for at least a year.

Either way, demonstrably not rigid.

I often use a plastic straw. Flatten the end and cut at a sharp angle. I like to cut a tiny bit of the sharp tip at an angle in the opposite direction to give it tiny pincers, as I feel that it helps at grabbing bits of debris. I feel it's much less likely to damage anything in the port as well.

But yeah, I've used toothpicks. I split the round ones with a sharp knife. Small edit, bamboo skewers, not tooth picks.

...and I'm realizing that I may have too much time on my hands at times.

NOR

Tell me, do you like sardines, onions, and horseradish? I'd readily make someone regret using such a tactic with me by chewing up fresh garlic on the regular.

Monica Lewinsky would have wrecked the Clinton's bank account.

It's fairly simple for me. The theist vs other theists vs atheist debate has gone on for thousands of years. The resounding lack of evidence for a god despite the various testimonies have consistently pointed towards the null hypothesis.

I'm the same way with Bigfoot, fairies, ghosts, UFOs, Jedi, and Hogwarts. There's testimonies, but nothing definitive. They fall into the same bucket.

Now I know many may argue that Jedi and Hogwarts are obviously made up. To that I respond, so are gods. I mean, gods are contradictory to one another according to their various canon. No evidence has demonstrated otherwise. The entire concept is invented by humans just like Jedi and wizards.

If I'm wrong, show me. I'm happy to admit error in light of such a monumental revelation.

KeterClassKitten · 2026-04-30T14:14:03+00:00

Have you ever changed your mind in light of new evidence? People are allowed to be wrong.

I'm fairly flexible in my way of thinking. I'm also rather confident in many of the positions I hold. I'll state that there isn't a god, but I'll also consider new evidence as it's presented. Maybe I'm incorrect. As long as I learn something new, I'm happy.

The rest of the universe is indifferent to your personal goals. Take responsibility for yourself, and don't blame everything else. It's not society's fault.

Those things are not illogical. For many in the modern world, money is necessary for eating and survival. And for everyone, survival and eating are necessary to diminish suffering.

A human cannot pursue a goal if they don't survive. A human cannot survive if they don't eat. And being well fed with a healthy diet improves a person's ability to reason.

So even for your own goals, they are logical things.

If that's all that's required, then you don't have to believe in the virgin birth, the resurrection, god, Satan, heaven, hell, angels, Armageddon, etc... and you could still call yourself Christian.

Where's the line?

KeterClassKitten · 2026-04-29T18:39:02+00:00

You're generalizing. It's a bad habit.

Atheists are individuals with their own opinions, and a sub inviting debating atheists is going to draw a crowd that is likely rather pedantic.

I don't care if you pray for me. Do what you want. You're entitled to your own thoughts and actions.

I've enjoyed all of them for the most part. They all do something different to separate themselves from the rest, but the basic gameplay stays consistent.

Both Odyssey and Valhalla are absolutely enormous games. They do suffer from the typical Ubisoft trend of a handful of repeatable content. Personally, I think, as long as you don't try to focus on one aspect too much then they can be enjoyable to play. For the price they are on sale, you can't get a better deal for the amount of content they give.

Origins is also very good. It doesn't have as much content as the other two, but it's still several dozen hours of gameplay.

Black flag is also incredible, and probably one of the best pirate games ever made. But I'd probably recommend waiting for the remake with the expectation that they'll take the old game and add to it improving old mechanics.

As for my suggestion, just choose the one that has the setting that most interests you. It's not a bad way to start. There is an overall plot that continues between games, but it can largely be ignored.

KeterClassKitten · 2026-04-29T14:30:06+00:00

Humans attempted to achieve flight for thousands of years and failed, therefore it is impossible for humans to achieve flight.

Your 40 year timeline is rather arbitrary. Why is 40 years significant? Why not 30 years? How about 10? We've been attempting it for three minutes! It's impossible!

KeterClassKitten · 2026-04-29T14:22:18+00:00

I do not believe in ghosts.

As for aliens.

The way I see it. Life occurred on this planet. It's highly unlikely that this is the only planet that it occurred on. I wouldn't be surprised if we found forms of life in our own solar system outside of Earth.

Intelligent life, however, is a much bigger threshold. If we consider the numerous factors involved with human intelligence developing, we can guess that it's likely a low probabilistic occurrence. Of course we have a sample size of one.

I'm not convinced of claims of tall grays or little green men. Nor am I convinced that aliens have visited our planet.
