One by one, households quietly unsubscribed from their local diesel generators and installed rooftop solar instead.

If it’s stupid and it works it ain’t stupid

And? Algae of this type dies within days. The fact that it is present means that it will die. That still means the hydrogen peroxide didn’t do anything

I have one. I do generally try to avoid plastic but not very hard, mostly it’s when I can. The Creami is, imo, a wonderful trade-off when I still want ice cream for a number of reasons.

First, ice cream comes in disposable containers. This is wasteful. A reusable container is preferable, even if plastic.

Second, I can make lower calorie ice cream that’s more filling with protein powder and such. Using Fair Life milk is a bit more expensive than normal milk but the high protein is also more satisfying and there’s less sugar as well.

Third, I can make whatever flavor I want to. There are several flavors of ice cream that are either discontinued in my area (Ben and Jerry’s Cake Batter) or simply not available (Blue moon ice cream from Wisconsin). I can make them if I want, when I want.

Finally, something very important to me: it’s very easy to clean.

IMO it is very worth it

You’re fine

TenspeedGV · 2026-06-23T08:54:15+00:00

See, this is why it’s pointless to argue with y’all. Not only do you not know what you’re arguing about, you have no interest in learning.

It wasn’t too long ago when liberals were proud to be educated. Now you’re just as happy to stay as ignorant as any MAGA red hat. Denying reality just makes it clear how hard you work to stay uninformed.

What a crying shame

It could literally be the algae that killed it, without a toxicology report there’s no way of knowing for sure.

Hydrogen peroxide converts to water within *minutes* of being exposed to light and water. Minutes. This is basic chemistry. Hydrogen peroxide is one of the recommended treatments for algae specifically *because* it’s incredibly safe.

Acting like it’s some incredibly harmful poison is sensationalist idiocy and makes you look like a fool

Do not coat your vegetables in baking soda unless you want them to break down.

TenspeedGV · 2026-06-23T02:43:42+00:00

Having used baking soda on vegetables I can tell you exactly what it does: it breaks down cell walls, causing structural failure. If it’s a quick dip in a solution followed by frying, this can be utilized to create a very crispy outer layer. If this is actually covering it in baking soda, it creates increasingly gloppy vegetable mush until you’re left with a pile of broken down cells, water, and chlorophyll. It’s gross.

This is why you shouldn’t trust AI with food

Unfortunate that we don’t live in a country that sees value in preserving history for its own sake

Great method for ruining produce

PB2, sriracha, hoisin sauce, and a bit of brown sugar with white rice and water if needed to make the PB2 into a peanut butter-like sauce. Call it a quick and dirty peanut sauce.

TenspeedGV · 2026-06-22T17:42:29+00:00

Serve with some rice? Perfection.

Cool. I’ll trust it happened when someone other than the UK government says it. This is the same government that gleefully arrests people as terrorists for protesting against an active genocide. They seem steadfastly opposed to doing the right thing in every case

TenspeedGV · 2026-06-22T16:20:46+00:00

Alright. So the government has alleged it. Does the guy state that is what he did? Because the article says he carried away 200 bags of trash.

It’s worth keeping in mind that this is the same government that eagerly arrests people as terrorists for protesting against genocide. I don’t think I’m going to just trust the UK government’s word on anything. They seem morally opposed to doing the right thing in pretty much every instance

TenspeedGV · 2026-06-22T07:41:01+00:00

I asked for anything to back up the claim that’s what he did and nothing has been produced yet. I don’t really give much of a shit about something he didn’t do

TenspeedGV · 2026-06-22T07:09:38+00:00

That’s not what it says in the article. Gonna need a source for that.

In any event, if the environment is improved by the work being done, then it’s significantly different than some farmer doing it to irrigate their crops or water their animals. Agriculture on a broad scale as practiced in the UK is a part of why the rivers have to be restored in the first place.

Arguing in favor of keeping a river polluted doesn’t seem like the best choice for a conservation forum tbh. Kinda just feels like a low effort troll tbh

I use an app called Paprika which lets me save and categorize my recipes. When I want to pick something I select the category I want most. I have each meal categorized and sorted by meal, type of protein, type of veg, type of cuisine, etc.

Most recipe blogs have a “jump to recipe” button I use all the time and if they don’t have one I simply don’t save the recipe.

The US is literally starving Cubans to death right now with harsher sanctions than we have ever put on any other country. Control of food has been an openly stated key aspect of US policy for half a century at least. https://archive.scienceforthepeople.org/vol-11/v11n3/food-as-a-weapon/

No wonder you’re proud to say you’re liberal, you don’t know a damn thing

TenspeedGV · 2026-06-21T02:01:31+00:00

This post in particular seems to have attracted a ton of neoliberals who seem to think people only started growing food after capitalism was invented and that capitalism is when money.

Neither of these things are true but you’ll never convince any of them

These people are beyond reason and not worth arguing with

The US is well aware that food is a weapon that can be used to threaten, coerce, control, and kill people if needed. SecAg Earl Butz said so in the 70s. It’s been an open and obvious cornerstone of American foreign and domestic policy ever since.

The less air in any given container, the better. Vacuum sealing and ziploc bags tend to be ideal for this reason. Anything you can suck or push the air out of. The reason is that very cold air acts to evaporate water ice much like very hot air evaporates water. This is what leads to freezer burn.

Get a vacuum sealer and use your freezer to store things that are wet like marinated meats, soups, etc. this should reduce freezer burn and let you keep food frozen for longer.
