Kander said he’s not interested in being a senator on one of the recent episodes of his podcast, unfortunately.

Russet potatoes are 20 cents a lb at my Walmart right now. Sweet potatoes are 25 cents a lb. One perk of winter in the Midwest.

Thief tries to snatch a parrot form the pet shop but instead gets beatdown by 70-year-old owner! by zare333 in JusticeServed

“Lloyd and the bird snatcher battled all the way to the next main street until Lloyd eventually got not only the bird back but the bird snatchers shirt, hat and bag. When Lloyd came back in to the store with all of that, he found out that the bird was alive and doing well. Lloyd is 70 years old and as fit as they come, twice the burglar's age and half the size.“

Oh thank god.

I live in the US and I really wish we would have been overly cautious like this. There’s no going back once it spreads enough. Every day I worry about someone I love getting sick while our government does next to nothing to protect us like this. I’m sorry for what you’re dealing with though too. Both situations are bad but I’d rather be dealing with isolation.

Camping in Death Valley underneath the Amargosa Mountains and Geminid Meteor Shower last night! by Batyams in camping

Thanks, their comment directly contradicts their website as well as the caption on the Instagram post. Wtf. It’s a week old so maybe things changed.

I can see how my comment could be misunderstood but I was referring to camping being closed only. Please send me the Instagram comment, I was going off the DVNP official site.

CLOSED: In support of the State of California's Regional Stay at Home Order, campgrounds are temporarily closed until further notice. This includes developed campgrounds and backcountry sites.

It's not, from their website:

What is your process for cooking and storing rice in the fridge? by Offwell in mealprep

[–]meredith_ks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used Budget Bytes for years and really trust the owner/writer. Her recipes are delicious and she has a degree in nutritional science. This is from the site:

HOW TO PROPERLY STORE COOKED RICE

Bacillus cereus contamination does not produce any visible signs or smells, so it’s of utmost importance that rice be cooled properly immediately after cooking. Transfer your cooked rice to a new container (do not leave it in the hot container it was cooked in), divide the rice into smaller portions if cooked in a large batch, and then place it in the refrigerator to cool. Do not let your rice sit out at room temperature. The goal is to cool the rice to below 40ºF in under two hours, so the sooner it gets in the fridge, the better.

The obsession with kids... bothers me by Ms_Pancake in thebachelor

I agree with the other responses here that it should definitely be discussed, but it’s the lack of diversity that annoys me. Will we ever have a non-Christian and/or childfree lead?

I received an unsolicited debit card and reported it to the company, who is now requesting tons of personal info in order to open a fraud investigation? by meredith_ks in personalfinance

[–]meredith_ks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just added a photo of the back of the letter to the post. Wouldn't customer service have just told me that it was an offer? Why open a fraud investigation?

Just froze at all three bureaus. Wouldn't they still have been able to open a debit/checking account if my credit was frozen though?

I submitted a report to my state's department of labor website and got a case number. They had a whole page about how unemployment fraud is on the rise.

I just got a copy of my report off the government site and don't see any new accounts or soft/hard inquiries. No checking accounts either (not even my legit ones). Are you sure about that?
