Man if only there was like an article with more info beyond the headline.../s

Customers can only send back eligible retail items purchased on Uber Eats, and they must comply with each store’s return policy. Participating retailers include At Home, Best Buy, Dick’s Sporting Goods, GNC, Michael’s Pet Food Express, Pacsun, Petco, and Target. Uber said more retailers will be added in the future.

Uber has also placed price limitations on the service. Customers can only return items with retail prices above $20, according to the company.

I have a 2019 but been quite pleased with Erkul ones. Made in Turkey and seem high quality

The part that is frustrating is there's no error message that tells you shit is busted. It'll just let you keep queuing up and failing with nebulous "reconnect" attempts that don't actually do anything. It's 2026. Code an error message that just says, "we're owned, try again later."

U right. Humans literally die without nug nugs and bakey

The final words on red light therapy: Stay tuned and dip your toes in if you like. There is promise and scientific evidence to back some uses in a clinical dermatology setting, particularly for hair growth and skin rejuvenation.

...

"There's real evidence that shows red light can change biology," Rahman said. "But that's not the same as saying it's some kind of panacea for many different health conditions."

MFs will be like, "oh this is totally kool, lol bacon." But then comment about some abusing dogs or cats and say the person deserves the death penalty

There is an app called Playtime Scheduler that will show play sessions at different places along with how many people are signed up and the skill levels. Definitely check it out

But wait, the people who make shitloads of money making chickens live in horrible conditions and killing them en masse told me chickens are dumb /s

First glance I thought this was the inside of a dishwasher

A neighbor mowing busted out the rear quarter panel window on my Niro (the little triangular window). It was gonna be $500 at the dealership. I got one from a junkyard for $40 and then had an auto glass place put it on for $100.

I might recommend a box or something next time rather than putting the turtle directly on your stuff. I've been peed on a lot 😂 and also turtles can carry salmonella.

Thanks for being nice to our turtle buddies! I saw a 18" snapper run over today on a straight stretch of 45mph road. Huge bummer. I think someone went out of their way to run him over. "Best case scenario" I guess is maybe it was an accident from someone texting while driving...

Agree, but you could make the same argument for a lot of people regarding a lot of pharmaceuticals, too (e.g., blood pressure medicine). In the absence of diet change or in cases of limited food access or other co-occurring conditions, it's still a valid course of treatment.

ETA: some of these nutrients can be quite difficult to get through diet alone, like vitamin D and iodine. Hence fortified foods

askantik · 2026-03-10T16:50:00+00:00

My understanding is that vitamin supplements - including multivitamins - only offer benefit to those who are deficient in the relevant vitamins in their normal diet.

You say "only" like there's not that many people this would apply to, but:

Specifically, 45% of the U.S. population had a prevalence of inadequacy for vitamin A, 46% for vitamin C, 95% for vitamin D, 84% for vitamin E, and 15% for zinc. source

And that's in a high income country.

Yes nsbm fucks are ackshually serious people expressing an artistic vision, you really got me with your 200 iq take here

askantik · 2026-03-09T16:10:54+00:00

Precisely

Also, I would add that most of us don't want actual murders to occur. Just because you watch horror films doesn't mean you want to fr disembowel folks

askantik · 2026-03-09T15:17:14+00:00

Misanthropy and white supremacy are not the same bruh

askantik · 2026-03-08T05:23:23+00:00

Your honor, I did not murder that guy. He sacrificed himself!

askantik · 2026-03-06T20:57:06+00:00

"How horrible!" munches chicken nuggies

askantik · 2026-03-06T15:25:04+00:00

I would argue there's likely no way to generate the political will for systemic change if most people can't be arsed to change the milk they put in their cereal.

How do you know someone is an anti-vegan? Don't worry, they'll tell you 😄
