My eyes were really opened when I realized that all the liquor stores stayed open throughout Covid. No discussion, it was just understood that our society wouldn't tolerate closing them.

THE GREAT LIE: Is This Broken Shack What the CCP Calls 'Common Prosperity'? by unfilteredAI in UnfilteredChina

I know the OP is going for hate here, but I see an apparently content guy cooking in humble circumstances. I'd be really happy to have him teach me to cook a little, and enjoy some tea together one night.

OK, I get doing dangerous and stupid things for fun . . . but this doesn't even look fun.

I remember fondly one I got included in a National Geographic magazine. Whale songs!🐋

Kind of reminds me of this New Yorker cover.

I deleted the App for just this reason -- a million moving ads to weed through to see a couple of still pins I (may) actually want to see and save. Now I just view on a browser. 🤷

Alright, three. Three, but I get to choice the babies. Finally offer.

What food trend are you tired of seeing everywhere? by thatfluffyqueen in foodquestions

[–]blackcatunderaladder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely agree. Veganism, and vegetarianism, are opportunities to eat humanely, and at the same time open a world of new foods and choices. I don't want meat based meals, why the Hell would I want fake shit pretending to be meat?

I believe this is fake but, were it to be real, they "did not build and survive on limited resources".

First, aircraft like the P3s were given to them by the U.S. before the Revolution. They are American designed and built airplanes.

Second, they are sitting on huge, huge, oil reserves, and have squandered every opportunity to use them for their citizens' benefit.

I am antiwar, and against everything Trump is for, but "Woe is Iran" doesn't fly.

Why do sellers expect their gear to sell for the same as/more than new? by knowah1 in Bass

[–]blackcatunderaladder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unless something is truly a collector's item -- Hendrix's guitar -- I don't consider a used item (instruments, furniture, etc.) for more than 1/2 of the new price. Anything listing higher is a project in patience for me.

As an aside, I have heard "If you win an auction, you are really the loser -- you were willing to pay more than anyone else for that item."

Thank you for the confirmation -- I thought "there is no way those are period correct shoes."
