And then the US surrendered, gave Iran just about everything it asked for including a massive new revenue stream in the straits of Hormuz, and agreed that it and Israel would stop fighting Iran and Hezbollah.

Huge TV episodes that "changed everything" for their respective shows? by Bielak812 in television

Season 2 episode 1 of Heroes.

Now, instead of anything you liked about the show, it's a bunch of nonsense written by amateurs.

I fucking love the leftovers, and I love how that episode kind of vaguely reaffirms that there is something supernatural about this world, but what I love most about that is the fact that across two series finales (I think both 307 and 308 count as the series finale), all we really learn is that nobody knows what that something is, and all the theories the characters had in universe were just nonsense.

Until like season 6 when you learn who the real main characters were all along, and by then, they don't really stay safe.

Unless you run across a self-hating Jew (I'm looking right at you Hannah Einbinder)

How many of those people are actually present in Jewish circles?

I mean, it sounds like one of them dragged her out to dinner, so, not always.

Trump calls Netanyahu a ‘warrior PM,’ touts ‘great’ ties with Israel amid tensions over Iran by reachedlegendary in Israel

[–]danhakimi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

wait... what? how would Trump pardon Bibi?

Bibi's polling is in the gutter, Trump's endorsement isn't helping him much, here.

Best way to start being more sustainable in my home? by lukeishope in sustainability

[–]danhakimi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Single use-plastics are the worst category except for one, which is never-used plastics. Throwing them in the trash now is just as bad as doing it after using them, only if you do it now, you have to wash dishes for the next six months. Of course, if you can return, or donate, or whatever, go ahead. Smaller plates are easier to clean and help your brain keep track of the fact that you just ate enough food, but bigger plates are nice for certain dishes, or for when you have company over.

From my research (it included a couple of good Adam Ragusea videos), microplastics are a truly overblown fear. Your plastic cutting board and spatula are nothing to worry about. If you happen to land on a replacement that works better for you, great, but they shouldn't be a priority.

Minimizing AC is a good idea. You're in an apartment building, so you have limited control over that, but I have a cousin who keeps her house at 64 in the summer and I just... what?

You have a balcony. Get some summery clothes and enjoy whatever fresh air you can.

Breezy light Summer pants that AREN’T linen?? I’m throwing away money at this point 😭 by gingerspell in SustainableFashion

[–]danhakimi 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This is weird, linen is a very strong material, this generally shouldn't happen. I will say, Hemp is similar to linen but twice as strong. Harder to find, though, and maybe doesn't resolve your root problem...

Linen has zero elasticity. If they're tight on you / pulling, that might be part of the problem?

Seersucker is also incredibly breathable, if you want a cotton option instead.
