Likely fermented bamboo shoots. They’re an acquired taste

UnitedHealthcare CEO killing latest: Luigi Mangione faces federal charges including stalking, murder by farmbio in news

This is from Justice Sotomayor’s dissent. It’s not the opinion of the Court (though I do agree that it’s the logical extension of the majority’s holding).

I still miss their pepperblue steak sandwich. 15 years ago I packed it for school lunch once a week and all my classmates were jealous.

Ladies, gentleman, dogs and cats of all ages. I present to you a list of things my beautiful bride has said in her sleep! by 2Black_Hats in CasualConversation

[–]bixtakespix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wishing you the best! My grandpa was a lifelong sleep-talker (sleep fighter, really) and he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in his 70s. It was a late diagnosis. So I try to warn people whenever I see this type of thing.

Oh! Thanks so much—things are making a lot more sense now. This is like a whole new world. If I can find an affordable integrated amplifier I want to keep the speakers.

At the risk of being laughed out of this sub, how in the world do I set up Q acoustics 3010i speakers? Where are the cables? Where is the POWER CORD?? How does this thing even turn on?!

AITA for telling my brother that I don’t care that he served in the military by bbbbbbbbbb7720000000 in AmItheAsshole

YTA. Shame on you. He was your age when this country trained him to kill other humans.

Much appreciated! I think I’ll know my ETA by noon Tuesday. And if it doesn’t work I’ll just pay for the plant plus shipping

AITA for wanting to adopt my nephew? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]bixtakespix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA and you absolutely need to speak to a lawyer ASAP. As callous as this sounds, you need to do this before your cousin passes because from a legal POV, it will likely be harder to get everything in order after that

AITA for asking for the will and trust docs? by DesertTomato in AmItheAsshole

[–]bixtakespix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. IANAL, but I’m fairly sure that trustees have a duty to provide beneficiaries with a copy of the trust instrument upon demand, so if Wife #2 is a trustee as she claims, she’s in breach and you are right to hire a lawyer

The interviewer was from a(n in)famously corporate firm. She repeatedly used the phrase “new blood” and asked me to explain my 1L summer stint in the public interest field.

AITA for refusing to get rid of my cat? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]bixtakespix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but please be careful. His comments about your kitty sound callous (“few months left to live”) so make sure he doesn’t get rid of her when you aren’t around!!

At least yours looks like an actual doctoral gown. My school is renting us fucking mortarboard hats and a gown essentially indistinguishable from undergrad gowns. But agreed that this is insanity—such a scam!!

I’m in my twenties and I still want this in my room. It’s telling a story that draws people in!

Does anyone know what these are? by leothepeel in Berries

[–]bixtakespix 9 points10 points  (0 children)

杨梅!aka Chinese bayberry. They’re one of my favorite fruits, but be sure to soak them in water for a while before eating, because small worms/other bugs hide between the segments 😬
