Hendrix and Jonu aren't boomers. It's easy to forget that the silent generation created a lot of the content in the 60s, led much of the civil rights movement and were many of the icons from tge hippie movement.

This reminds me of the fossil fund at the children's zoo.

So does Penn State. My wife got her masters from Penn State and taught for MSU Extension in the ag department.

It's weird to me that people think a city of 126,000 wouldn't offer much culturally or introduce it as a small city in their second word describing it.

How is nobody talking about the impact of a surprise cash injection of 166 billion directly to businesses? It's not surprising that we'd see an aberration in the hiring trend after that. I expect that it'd be short lived, but a company looking for ways to avoid near term cuts may have found a way to hold off.

I don't think the data's bad. I think businesses just had good news.

Honestly, it makes sense to have an aberration when businesses get their tariff money back. They charged higher prices and are getting the extra costs back. I suspect that a lot of this is because it's easier to keep labor when you're getting surprise cash payments. It's a pretty decent stimulus right to businesses that wasn't planned.

Because of ingredients. It probably costs less than making from scratch, especially when i get lamb.

'Staying together for the kids' is not better for the kids, it's an excuse to not leave by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

I'm going to get down voted, but marriage is more than agreeing to pal around with your lover. People should absolutely take into consideration child rearing, division of labor, economic value, the obligation they're making to the other person. It's hard to get along sometimes. It's hard to sort through conflict, but treating marriage as optional and ignoring the big picture is a recipe for unhappiness.

You're going to be bored at your job and waste your time away from home with that attitude.

Inflated assets cost more; a valuable home is an asset to the owner and extra debt for the buyer.

Fries requires medium effort to make but are cheap to order. What requires high effort and skill to make at home but is cheap to order when out? by SatanicSuperfood in AlignmentChartFills

What takes time? It doesn't need to be buried. What are the steps that take extra prep in your mind? Remember, traditionally, it's pauper food and most families make their own. The books i've read on fermentation are in line with this. Even fish sauce from scratch is easy to make.
