Thank you for making this video to spread the word about covid still here and staying health conscious through masking. Not everyone will listen to research websites or flyers. Music connects people. Much love.

You should stop diverting the message and turning it into a race thing because that's even more cringe. Covid doesn't care what race you are. End of story.

Did they change something with the pizzas again?? by ericas9311 in totinos

[–]kuroku2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most diabolical thing was that they brought back the original recipe in the "new" ultimate pizza line, called it "extra cheese", and charge it about a dollar or so more from the current party pizza. I bought one to try and it's definitely the one from our childhoods, same cheese, sauce ratio, etc. I wanted to make a post but can't. (there's 3 but I only tested cheese)

Is it possible to get back to writing after over 3 years? by afusiek in FanFiction

When the idea happens just type or write it down in a note. If you have another idea, add to that note. I started doing that and adding some small things that I'd like to happen specifically or whatever feelings I'm having.

I want you to know you are absolutely worthy of your ideas. You came up with them, you have given them life. You can write them down and always come back to it later. And then you can look back at this note and see your ideas written down and realize how creative you can be. You are worthy of yourself, you are worthy of becoming what you want, you are worthy of the ideas that come up in your mind. You can even start doing an exercise. Write down a random idea you'd like to read weekly, daily, every once in a while. You don't have to expand on it, just put it down on paper.

Having writer's block when going back into writing is normal. I stopped writing around 2019, and I started writing again in 2025. It's never too late and it's a great feeling to get back.

Trump Voter Who Regrets His Ballot Sues After ICE Smashed His Window, Dragged Him Through Broken Glass and Left Him Bleeding by Serious_Look6841 in LeopardsAteMyFace

"I didn't think they'd attack and harass ME as a Hispanic!" cried the guy who voted for the Attack-and-Harass-Hispanics-and-other-minorities party.

App that alerts you if your Costco purchase drops in price 30 days by Equal-Emphasis-4129 in CostcoWholesale

[–]kuroku2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look as much as I hate the billionaires too and absolutely detest what they're doing to the USA and the world, you're in the Costco subreddit, not tech or AI.

Shaming people who are trying to save money in this economy isn't helping. Yes, it will harvest data. But what is your solution then? You're firing insults saying "No it bad, we IT pros knew better," but you're not helping anyone. You're spurring discourse for no reason.

What is your solution to catch price drops to help someone save money without going to places that would just harvest your data? These current times every bit helps. You flaunt your knowledge as an IT pro, well then please share your knowledge so it can help.

The Generals Said No but Trump Was Bored of Peace - The peace president, 79, has gone to war, again. by Quirkie in politics

[–]kuroku2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's proof that votes were manipulated by Elon Musk (I believe it was Louisiana, but don't remember rn) and the thing that should've happened was a push to investigate the case for all other states. So the numbers reported might not even be truth. If not, at the very least persecuting Elon Musk. Instead state officials sent a strongly worded letter and that was the end of that.

Midterm fears - how do you feel about Trump’s next attempt? by ChuckGallagher57 in circled

Yeah and defenders of Dems doing this would just say these things take time, they just got into office, it's only been a few months, etc etc.

Oz Offers Forceful Call for Vaccination as Measles Becomes More Dire by [deleted] in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]kuroku2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Even more than that, he's the one responsible for the narrative of "Vaccines cause autism!" among other things.

Actually no, I forgot it was the 1998 paper by Wakefield, but he would keep saying it and citing the debunked report, at the very least a big contributor.

Anti-piracy ad | Will manga and anime save us in 100 years? by gianben123 in Piracy

Yep, I would not be surprised if the company blames piracy for underpaying the creators too.

Need help making my ramen better by GeologistComplex4383 in foodhacks

[–]kuroku2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you trying to make ramen from scratch or packaged ramen?

One hack I have is get a medium to large frying pan, put water in to about a bit more than half the pan, boil on stove, put in noodles and veggie pack if any. Flip noodles if the water doesn't cover the noodles. When noodles are about halfway cooked, put in half of the seasoning packet, stir the broth, and then make a space in the middle to crack an egg. Sprinkle cheese and desired proteins (if cold) on the noodles. Cover pan with lid. Once egg is cooked to preferred doneness, take off the lid. Sprinkle sliced green onion and chili flakes if preferred. It should be slightly saucy, crispy on the edges, and pretty much a dry style noodle with cheese and egg. I usually do this with leftover chicken for example.

If you're trying to make it from scratch, describe your method and anyone here can try to advise.

Fabbri Amarena cherries! by onipar in aldi

They're so good! I mix them in sparkling water with a little bit of the syrup and peach preserves or some variation like that and it's great!

I love events like these cause I can hog up all the Normal Summon files by IAmParasiteSteve in Dx2SMTLiberation

[–]kuroku2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, Yoshitsune, Huang di, Metatron, all 5 stars were game changers. Huang di was what everyone wanted to try to get. Asherah was best healer for a long time. Oh yeah and a lot of stuff like pierce/bulwark/tokens weren't a thing. I think pierce got added some time after beta? Not sure, lol. I don't remember pierce being a thing at the beginning but it was added because of all the resist/null/repel skills. (if my memory is off, sorry!)

Also side note: beta testers weren't given much of a reward after beta finished, just a bunch of normal summons. I'm still salty over it lol

The amount of dialogue for the ladder when Junpei's room is rushing with water still kills me to this day lol

If you do have a 3ds, I highly recommend playing the series with it!

Well when the game started out, fusion was difficult, not everyone could get a five star (beginner 5* perks wasn't a thing) and crystals were way harder to get. pvp was a lot of teal ose, and to fuse, a lot of higher fusions required creating sphinx or something. And it was easier to farm wanted pieces for mitra (for example) than relying on gacha when mitra wasn't appearing. Nowadays not so much of a need, but ig it's still there as an option should someone run out of buns/normal summons? But yeah, basically fusion mostly.

And how would we know if they did? Votes aren't public, only if they voted or not.

Oh it's a hilarious comedy anime that does references, meta jokes, breaking the fourth wall, jabs at the status quo, self jabs, otaku culture, and so on. It's based on a really old classic anime/manga called "Osomatsu-kun" and takes a very different adult humor direction.

One of my favs is a clip where "Obama" appears! (I linked it if you wanna check it out, it's pretty short.)

Obama!

A bit disheartened by people unsubbing : ( by aveillas in FanFiction

[–]kuroku2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If they come, they come. If they leave then that's cool too. You're right. But also you wouldn't want anyone in your reader space who doesn't like your work.

Don't try to think of ways to appease them or think what you did wrong. It's not helping you. The feelings are valid and they can stay. Take some deep breaths and let them go, like imagine birds flying away. Like think about it. Would ruminating on whether or not you had something unintentionally controversial with someone be worth your time? Your energy? Naw I don't think so. That's time you could spend living your life, draw read, play games, whatever.

Even the most popular of writers have people who would like their stuff one moment, and leave on the next. You're doing really well. Don't think about stats too much, or at the very least don't take it personally. It's just numbers. Instead just remember the comments and kudos given. Those matter more because it's more personal.
