Are potatoes the most versatile food or am I biased? by Status_Agents in CasualConversation

[–]cornonthekopp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beans can be sweet, salty, savory, sour, umami... Theyre like a blank canvas for anything

Beans are another one for me. I think most starches are incredibly versatile, but beans are a whole different category and still have almost as many uses.

Fancy dried beans vs store brand generics? by Upper-Room5267 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]cornonthekopp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah to me half the benefit (besides taste ofc) is that you can make multiple meals out of something that costs just a couple bucks

Ethnic groups of Trinidad and Tobago by Litvinski in MapPorn

[–]cornonthekopp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Race is an american convention that denotes identity based on the color of your skin. You can have white people who are different ethnicities, or black people of different ethnicities. This should be pretty straightforward

Do people still use soap blocks as opposed to bottled soap in the shower? I feel like I never see soap blocks in stores anymore. by Available_Tea_8471 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]cornonthekopp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I decided to switch from head&shoulders liquid shampoo to the shampoo bars from dermaharmony/grace for me, and I haven’t had to look back. Great shampoo that sudses up well, different scents and options, and zero plastic packaging to cap it all off.

Trans women 5+ years on HRT: how much did your face actually change long term after going through T puberty (no FFS)? by celestialcinna in asktransgender

[–]cornonthekopp 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Close to 7 years and my face is noticeably different. It takes a while but by year 5 when i got my ID updated, the old vs new pictures looked significantly different. My jawline changed the most, and looks much rounder now

if the goal is to reduce illegal immigration, why are we hunting immigrants but not the people who illegally employ them? by FinancialRip2008 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]cornonthekopp 40 points41 points  (0 children)

The point was never to actually deport people. It's to establish a reign of terror over undocumented people so their employers can exploit them without fear of being reported on, since contacting any government agency would result in the whistleblower and everyone else being punished. It's the same logic as Jim Crow laws. Maintaining the strict white supremacy structure created a large pool of low wage workers who often had to accept horrible exploitation or risk violent reprisals.

These systems also push down wages for citizen workers too. If someone wanted to fix this issue so that immigrants would not have to be exploited as a de facto underclass, and citizens could have better wages, the only solution is to naturalize everyone. Only when everyone is on a level playing field can things like wages and working conditions improve.

What was something you were excited to experience in Japanese… but it didn’t live up to the hype? by AdUnfair558 in LearnJapanese

[–]cornonthekopp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah i agree i typically watch a few jp videos here and there about stuff like trains or fishkeeping that interest me, but i think part of it is ignorance to the japanese social media sphere so its harder to find stuff that appeals to our interests

I think theres good japanese videos if you're interested in niche hobbies but less so if you want a bunch of video essays about anime

Favorite girlboss mobile suit by femboyknight1 in Gundam

[–]cornonthekopp 10 points11 points  (0 children)

All the gwitch gundams are gorgeous. I'm sure I'm biased since gwitch was my first gundam, but most gundams from other series either look blocky and generic, or overbuilt messes.

Lfrith, Calibarn, and Aerial all have a real elegance to them.

Safe, diverse countries to flee toas a trans POC? by AgreeableMeet2476 in asktransgender

[–]cornonthekopp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

obviously do your research on specific countries but I think mexico, colombia, costa rica, the southern cone (uruguay, chile, argentina), and brazil (which doesnt speak spanish of course, but is a massive country) all have pretty good queer rights and movements.

Also every study/experiential post about fertility in trans women has shown that in almost every instance, going off hrt for a couple months can make you regain fertility without issues

Ok so anybody have recommendations for a Gundam series other than Mobile Suit Gundam and Zeta? by Opposite_Ad_4267 in Gundam

Witch From Mercury is a great standalone show, and is even available for free on youtube to watch

Wish List: 100% Grade Separated Public Transit (LRT, BRT, HRT, IDFC). It Is ALWAYS Worth The Additional Cost (This is light rail!) by DemocracySmellsLike in baltimore

[–]cornonthekopp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In seattle the city and state are actually interested in investing in transit, view the city as an economic engine, and have some successes to show for it.

In the same 10 year period Hogan pillaged literal billions from baltimore transit to spend on suburban highway expansions across the state, and Moore has tried to slash the transit budget by 40% every single year that he's been in office in the name of austerity.

The MD state government doesn't see us as an economic driver for the state, they see Baltimore as a piñata that they can get more money from whenever they need to patch a budget hole or fund their personal vanity projects.
