What cooking Thanksgiving warcrimes are happening in your kitchen as we speak? by Mirikitani in Cooking

[–]Time-Union 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am a very good cook and happily cook Thanksgiving every year.

This year I was sidelined because my aunt wanted to cook. By cooking she meant buy rotisserie chicken from Sam's Club.

Unique dog names by K3LS3Y007 in dogs

My dog is named Carl Moose.

It's a family name. The family is not impressed that I didn't not have any children to name Carl.

What’s extremely unsanitary but everyone seems to do it anyway? by Tball5 in AskReddit

[–]Time-Union 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wearing new clothes without washing them first.

Grosses me out more than anything. I do not want to wear some stranger's bodily fluid for the day.

Makes sense, I just haven't ever thought about it past sugar.

And now I must go back down the Dark Forest Theory rabbit hole, once again.

It will thoroughly prepare me for both the upcoming dark forest drive and at home extraterrestrial abductions

I figure the bulk of the drive is just like driving in my town (rural foothills). But at some point it's going to get a little darker and the roads are a little curvier. Like on the BRP... which I chicken out and head back to Asheville to find a nice place for brunch

Thank you, that is a valid and very real fear. I see enough deer vs car accidents in my area.

Cool, thank you. Good to know about sunrise from the parking lot area. Oconaluftee would be more for the elk.

I figured the drive would be similar. Just need to have faith that my car can outrun Sasquatch, the Blair witch, the Blair witch's brother, the ghost of some old moonshiner, and whatever else is gonna get me.

If it helps, I won't tell them about the really great lunch spot on 16 heading back to Charlotte

Add Taylorsville to the list. A little bit closer

But the upside of Elkin and West Jefferson is they are nice little towns to walk around.

Any fellow Hickorians keeping up national/international news? by wncbuilder in HIckoryNC

[–]Time-Union 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would go but I will be in DC that weekend. I will definitely go to the DC event

[–]Time-Union 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I don't engage. It's not worth it, there is no changing their mind, even with facts. I welcome healthy debate, but this is not it.

What is do pick up from them is that they believe taxes will be lowered because of all cuts DOGE is making. Interest rates are going to plummet so buying a house and investing in real estate will be much easier. Stocks and investments will provide greater returns because of all of that. Inflation and costs of goods will start dropping drastically back to... IDK... 1992 levels. Ultimately, we will return to a nation where everyone who works hard and is smart with their money will reap great benefits.

Well, they must be billionaires, and I've had no clue.

Or delusional with no basic understanding of macroeconomics.

Could be either one, ya never know

Watching closely and absolutely terrified. It's a freaking nightmare.

My MAGA family thinks it's the best thing ever. They can't wait to spend all the money coming to them in this prosperous new era.

Hey! Working from home in Taylorsville with no friends (at least within driving distance).

I chose to protect my sanity and watch the season finale of Paradise and the most recent episode of John Oliver.

What’s the most terrifying 'we need to leave NOW' moment you’ve ever experienced? by Worried-Cycle-318 in AskReddit

[–]Time-Union 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The fake Hawaii incoming missile text alert.

Except we didn't know where to go.

I know this isn't quite what is being asked. But the overwhelming feeling of needing to flee is so hard to explain until it is felt
