I’ve only ever wanted 3 things in life, the fourth desire came later on.
Stability.
A loving relationship.
A stable, well paying job. (Not looking to be rich, just not relegated to renting illegal shitty apartments.)
My own home.
I’m turning 40 this year and I’ve gotten 0/4 so far…
EA you’re already known as the worst, you don’t need to prove the point any more…
I’ve been waiting years to get a VR set… I’ll never touch meta anything and I’ve been waiting for valve to release an update to the index… Finally they do and we have this fucking ai driven ram crisis to contend with… I just hope they don’t sell out instantly
The sources all stressed that the text was not yet final, with a Western source, an Iranian source and a Gulf source saying a key issue yet to be resolved was language on ceasing hostilities in Lebanon. Iran has demanded that Israel end a campaign against Iran’s allies, the Hezbollah militia.
(Naturally the main thing that can’t be dealt with is fucking Israel…)
Under the terms as described by the sources to Reuters, the U.S. would immediately provide Iran with billions of dollars in unfrozen assets and waive sanctions on its oil exports, in return for Iran lifting its blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, largely closed since the war began.
Any discussion of key U.S. demands regarding Iran’s nuclear program would be set aside for later during a 60-day period of talks on a final settlement. The only explicit reference to nuclear policy for now would be a restatement of Iran’s decades-old commitment not to seek nuclear weapons, first made when it ratified the UN Non-Proliferation Treaty in 1970.
Among the major U.S. concessions included in the drafts would be discussion of hundreds of billions of dollars in potential war reparations to Tehran, and the dropping of longstanding demands for curbs on Iran’s missile program.
Washington has previously demanded that Iran give up its stockpiles of highly enriched uranium. But none of the versions of the text reviewed by Reuters includes any mention of it, and the sources said the demand had been explicitly excluded for now.
Not sure how it is now, I gave up completely over a year ago after a decade of trying. They were pretty bad ~2 years ago in the US.
Why pay for them when you can get them for free?
Just get a bunch of random people really really mad and one of them are bound to be the type to rip you a new asshole!
Yeah… About that… I cook on a more conceptual level than a recipe level (not trying to sound smart, quite the opposite, it’s laziness lol)… From what I read people saying about baking being so precise it’s a wonder anything I make actually comes out good lol
It’s basically a simple yeast risen dough with a bunch of sugar as well. I use bread flour instead of all purpose as it retains more water and ends up softer. The “pretzelness” comes from a baking soda & water bath you give them before adding salt and baking. Just add some baking soda to hot water and toss them in it for a few seconds or so. From what I understand, the more basic the solution the better so people used to use Lye, but that’s kinda dangerous and baking soda does the trick.
This is the recipe I used to get the gist of making pretzels I just don’t twist them into pretzels I make rolls out of the dough.

I think there’s some AI nonsense going on in the beginning there because it calls out baking soda as a leavening agent but that’s not what it’s being used for in this recipe.
Good point, I unfairly took their humanity away when I included them in the bot category.
…But then again they took their own humanity away when they decided to become scammers lol
It’s so fun to be able to tell who’s a bot on the dating sites.
It’s actually really simple: did they message me first? 100% of the time they were bots.
Making and eating pretzel bread.
It’s a very temporary simple pleasure, because then I go to my doctor for a checkup and get sad because of all the pretzel bread lol
I think it’s supposed to work in tandem with their reduction of polling sites in blue cities that are in red states.
Makes it so that actually casting a ballot on election day is impossible for as many Democrats as possible.
Authority only matters when there’s an enforcement mechanism.
When the courts are stacked with your yes men then authority means nothing. When Congress is stacked with sycophants then authority means nothing.
To Republicans the rule of law is “I make the rules and are not bound by them. Democrats cannot change the rules and are bound by them.”
But this is likely just a way to give a buddy some money for his support
Yes, the Ellison family. The ones buying all the US media and installing pro-israel and axing any Trump critical personnel. :/
It’s something a friend of mine used to reply when people would say “Jesus fucking Christ!”
He’d immediately reply “That’s impossible!”
I just want to second the comment here about a high yield savings account, or even a CD. They’re both low/no risk investments. If the money you have is just sitting there you might as well be getting interest on it and a high yield savings, or a CD, aren’t exposed to the market so you can only lose if the bank shuts down and the FDIC can’t reimburse you, but if that happens we all have much bigger issues to worry about lol
I’m in a much worse situation than you, also at 40, so I definitely feel your pain here. Single, renting a garage “apartment,” working a shitty dead end factory job, and no inheritance to ever expect to receive. I too don’t feel like a real adult, but a failure of a human. So you’re not alone there for sure.
Before the election: Biden inflation! Biden inflation! LOOK AT THESE EGG PRICES!! Vote Trump to fix the inflation! Inflation bad!
Now: Inflation good. I love inflation. I did it on purpose.
MAGA: baaa baaa!
Makes sense. For the sake of simplicity and to help my understanding say a company sells 100 stocks at $1, people buy and sell them amongst themselves after the full 100 have already been purchased causing the price to increase to $2, the company only ever took in $100 as it was the initial sale even though there is potentially $200 out there?
If that is the case then why do we even talk about “billionaires” based on their company stock prices?
Who said this is a video game? I want Trump to die plain and simple. Suffering would be a bonus.
To elaborate, no I don’t want innocent people in the white house to die, but the gist of the initial comment was essentially eluding to trump being killed which was the concept I was supporting.
War does suck 100% of the time and there are no good guys in this world. Iran, US, or otherwise.
We live in the shit timeline, we don’t get nice things like that. We get undying Trump who lives like another 40 years as president and bullets fly around him like that stupid movie Wanted…
Maybe im lucky but I took kratom for a while, never felt addicted or felt like I needed to take it.
I only stopped because the day after taking it I would always feel agitated and I didn’t like that. It never lasted more than that one day so idk if that’s what they consider addictive…
