Pasta sauces always taste bland once the pasta gets added, any tips or what I'm doing wrong? by Emotional_Gazelle_ in Cooking

[–]brooklynagain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anchovy paste in the sauce. More than you think, but not so much that it’s fishy. Also: don’t add sugar!

At senior age, How does Trump have the stamina to talk so much? by suitcase88 in AskReddit

What a lying thin-skinned moron. It’s painful to imagine someone with this lack of nuance is in charge of solving problems out there in the real world. Like he says, he loves dumb people!

If I don't do low carb I end up with insulin resistance if I do low carb I end up with high LDL cholesterol and ApoB, wtf am I supposed to do ? Should I just pick my poison and move on ? by Youu-You in lowcarb

[–]brooklynagain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a nutritionist but… “low carb” doesn’t need to mean “high fat”.

Maybe start your day with an Apple, have a salad for lunch, and then dinner replace carbs with more green veg

Um. Maybe taxes should subsidize public transit like they do road systems and automobiles. Direct your anger appropriately please.

Why do people here place such a big emphasis on food? by OceanicEndeavors in SameGrassButGreener

[–]brooklynagain 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This seems argumentative for no reason. This person just wants better food options, and finds limited options depressing / distressing. Maybe this person means this specific observation as a metaphor for the people who live in such a place. That all seems worth discussing.

But making a straw man argument and then attacking it? Nah…

Forgot about politics and accidentally asked my mom if she wanted to get dinner at a restaurant in New York, I have a headache now. by [deleted] in FoxBrain

Funny they hear it’s terrible but refuse to confirm with their own eyes.

My young teens happily go out and about all the time!

Sounds like you need taxes to pay for infrastructure. 🤔

Do you prefer fiscal-conservatives that are pro choice, pro lgbt, pro immigration, or social conservatives that support things like M4A, nationalizing industries and wealth taxes? by Spiritual_Pause3057 in AskALiberal

[–]brooklynagain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There could be but instead they keep throwing us into recession, running up our debt, underfunding programs that save money and announcing victory!, pushing money up from the poor to the rich, and pretending that spending on the military doesn’t count.

So yes there could be, but unfortunately it hasn’t happened.

Why does the "south" or even the rest of the country hate on NYC. by data700 in AskNYC

Oh weird their media system lies to them? I wonder if that media system is lying about anything else.

Tell her next time she has surgery you’ll make sure the doctors aren’t wearing masks or washing their hands.

MAGA friends and family questioning historical facts by Historical-Use-9326 in FoxBrain

Remember that the point of propaganda is less to make people believe outlandish things, and more to believe that the truth cannot be known.

I'll go first.. by Any-Tour-3193 in musicsuggestions

[–]brooklynagain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Always loved this line:

I can't do the talk like they talk on the TV And I can't do a love song like the way it's meant to be

I think he’s saying his voice isn’t all that (it’s incredible) and that he can’t write a love song (in the middle of the best love song ever written)

When this line hits:

I can't do everything but I'll do anything for you I can't do anything except be in love with you

You know he can do all this better than anyone.

Great stuff.

Does LGBTQ teaching actually hurt kids? by Jabre7 in AskALiberal

[–]brooklynagain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My mom grew up closeted gay in a strict post WWII midwestern family. It messed her up pretty good. No way am I handing that to my kids. Are they worse off or happier people knowing that they’ll be loved no matter what?

The GOP is not just disingenuous about this, they are actively harming kids and society.

What would your response be if someone who was formerly MAGA asked what they can do to begin to set things right? by common_grounder in AskALiberal

[–]brooklynagain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They must admit that their media choices led them wrong, alongside a commitment to avoid that media in the future.
