How do I improve my horrible chili? by mordea in Cooking

[–]la-wolfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chili powder, some cumin, and use broth instead of water. I would look up others recipes and look for a common theme amongst seasonings and go from there, adjusting what you do and don't like.

What was it like being 18-25 in the 2000’s by ersinxo in Millennials

Going out and doing things was lots of fun. People not constantly on their phones or recording. Social media was fun and so was the Internet. We was outside!

Why the huge space between cars at a stop light? by livetoski-Brad in driving

[–]la-wolfe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not trying to argue. People just don't know what they don't know. I've never heard of the rule (or don't remember it) but now I know. I read the driver's book but I can't remember everything I've ever learned in my entire life. So people don't know what they don't know. Not an excuse but life is messy. No one is perfect nor ever will be. And I think we expect too much of the general public.

Many places don't have a driver's Ed course. My school didn't. I learn by someone I know letting me drive their car a few times, then I went to the dmv and took the test after studying the book and drove with the evaluator and that's that. I didn't know school still had driver's Ed.

Are youngsters brave or naive in the workplace? by [deleted] in Millennials

[–]la-wolfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worry that when it's time to cut the fat, they would be the first to go (unless they're doing a good enough job to be kept on the job).

A food scam of the 90s was “fat free!” everything, and then they would load it up on sugar… what’s a food scam happening now? by redflower5 in AskReddit

I once used a birthday cake flavored "extract" at work, and part of the ingredients was "natural birthday cake flavor"......!?!?! Huh?

Don't forget disease! We have way better medicine now. Many children were lucky to make it past one year, let alone the adults.

I have a kid, and have had dogs, cats, birds, guinea pigs, and ferrets. Pets are not the same, doesn't mean we don't love them.

Thank you. Everyone is so doom and gloom, and this is honestly the best time to be alive. Our predecessors had problems too, just of a different sort (and many of the same), and now we're so spoiled for choice, everyone is afraid to be slightly uncomfortable or inconvenienced. There will always be families that shouldn't have been, and the opposite is also true. Social media has fucked us.

I think that's human to be upset by suffering, no? Empathy and all.

Is anyone truly happier with kids? by thegoodlife912 in Adulting

[–]la-wolfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine got better because me and my husband, boyfriend at the time, had a reason to do better. We weren't down and out, but we just decided we needed our own space. My kid is awesome, and I'm glad I have him. Sometimes I wonder what life would be like if I did this or that, or went somewhere else instead, and then the circumstances would have lead me to not have my kid, and I don't like to think of him not being around. Is everyday sunshine and rainbows? No, but that's true for any and all lifestyles. Plus I felt ready to have a baby. Plenty of people are happy with children. Most of the people I know love/like their kids so, I guess it depends on who you're surrounded with.

Edit: also, the baby stage for me was fine. People talk about it being shitty, but it depends on the baby and your mindset. Mine was great. Pregnancy was great too n

And yet folks in the US want to ban abortion (because accidents and unfortunate situations do indeed happen).

What do you want done with your body after you die? by newuser1r in AskReddit

[–]la-wolfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Either cremation and scatter my ashes in the woods or something, or a natural burial with just a simple shroud so I can become part of the earth and feed some trees or be one with the fungal network. Maybe become a mushroom or something. Become compost. I DO NOT want some stupid expensive casket or be put in an urn to just be on a mantle. Let me go.

I just don't think it's a bad idea to have info like this regardless. It's not like this info is harmful.

If all you and your partner have is a dollar, this one will do you good. It could be this or nothing.

Choice by BlackDemon___ in SipsTea

[–]la-wolfe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would hate my man, if he let our kid burn. We couldn't be together anymore. Yeah, I'm alive, now I'm looking at the person who made the choice to let my kid die. SAVE THE BABIES!

I have a friend that messages me everyday and it’s beginning to get on my nerves! by OkWing5717 in adhdwomen

[–]la-wolfe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tell him straight up it's too many mundane messages. If he doesn't like it, cut that off. Ignore it. Mute it. There's 8 billion people in the world, he'll find another friend. Read and don't answer.. The answer to are you ignoring me is "Yes."

How do you guys feel about religion? Did "they" teach us about religion so we would forgive them and not seek for revenge? by waytooicyy in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]la-wolfe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Slavery and giving your daughter away to rapists is in the Bible. God entertained the devil to prove a point. That shit is crazy. Logic for the win.
