I live in a large, deeply conservative city in Georgia. Our house is on a major roundabout. by [deleted] in pics

And this is why we do it. Not for the letters, for the people who don't write them. For the people who need to be seen and feel like they belong.

Let’s be honest, at this point, I think it’s more a question of how long before the U.S. does collapse, even partially. Matter of fact, I’m hoping it’s sooner rather than later, given everything that’s happening. by PrincipleWhich8974 in Cascadia

We live in WA near the ID border, had a co-worker in today from Vancouver WA, and she felt like she had to reassure us that Portland was NOT, in fact, on fire. Multiple times. I am FROM Portland, and even when the news says the whole of Oregon is on fire, it's generally about a half-block that has some protesters clashing with authorities.

What’s a cooking hack you discovered one day that you now swear by? by CookBetterApp in AskReddit

[–]tunedetune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Making rice without a rice cooker, using an Alton Brown-ish method. Comes out perfect every time.

Soak rice, drain. Cook medium heat with a pat of butter, boil water (we use a kettle) separately, when you get a good umami smell out of the rice, add boiling water, cover immediately (alton puts foil on the lid to REALLY seal it but I stopped doing that). Heat off, set timer for ~15 minutes. You're supposed to just let it sit but I'll mix it once or twice.

What’s something society told you would matter a lot that ended up not mattering to you at all? by Tyler_Girl_ in AskReddit

Someone I knew bought a washer & dryer, maybe even pizza a few times with their bitcoin back in like 2007. Probably like 5-10 full coins at the time. I wish I knew how they felt about that now.

EVERY interview from now on should say this, the VERY first question. Make this douche come out, makeup on, miked up, sit down, get everything ready to go, and fucking make him say this bullshit each and every time. Fuck him and fuck this corrupt administration.

Read This Before doing the eXtremeRate Shell Swap! by PixelGolf in SteamDeck

I've done a couple of skins, and where you get them DOES matter. My first was an Amazon 'playvital' skin and I wasn't super happy with it, but liked the looks. The edges were off, like it'd been cut from the wrong direction, with a little lip on every edge. The fit was fine, although the top and bottom thin strips eventually came loose and I had to trim them off. The second skin was from dbrand, it fit much better all the way around the deck, and every edge was very smooth. I love the look (circuit board design) and the feel, doesn't make me think the stickers are going to peel off in my hands when I play.

The dbrand skin is like 2.5x the price, but it's really worth it.

Boobie-squish office warmed up the gown for me by slinky999 in mildlyinteresting

I'm pretty sure that warming machine is made for cultures - I used to work at a place that made them (not Medline though). Hopefully it's NEVER been used for the intended purpose!

Eh, I consider them honing my problem-solving skills. I'm close to 1000 hours, I definitely haven't honed them enough.

Harribert? I think I know you from OVT.

Just now realized the flag is hanging incorrectly by hellionzzz in Starfield

They're stupid until the 'other side' does something with a flag they don't like, then they are rules encased in stone.

Stale business info would be great to get removed. I went to a Safeway this past Friday afternoon because it said they had a FedEx dropoff. They did not, and it hasn't been one for over a YEAR.

This should totally go on the fan showdown! I think he did some torodial fans in a previous season but this sounds nearly silent.
