Ooh, valid question! I think I have to say yes, because traditional dumplings weren’t filled the way most are today, they were just a boiled or fried starch. Tapioca starch is mixed with boiling water to create boba, so, if you have a boba tea, that becomes soup again because you have added dumplings to your broth.

Tea is broth. You remove the solids.

Matcha might count as soup, though.

The day he deports musk will be the only day I ever wholeheartedly support something cheeto mussolini does.

Schadenfreude/revenge porn.

Not a great benefit but most humans like to indulge in it from time to time 🤷🏻‍♀️

But in the long run it would be better for marginalized communities if the assholes all just disappeared immediately so while the schadenfreude would be delectable it’s probably not worth it.

See, they’re still just barely scared enough of the populace that they feel the need for a cover story. They worry that if they just exorbitantly raise prices without a “valid enough” reason, the working class will actually turn against them. But enough of the working class still has some faith in capitalism for them to believe the corpos when they throw up their hands performatively and say “there’s nothing we can do! It’s the market forces!”, so they keep the cover story to placate the masses and prevent us from doing too much research on how to build guillotines.

Don’t worry, we’re only a few years away from the point at which they stop caring about the facade!

Look, I’m sure his surgeon did the best they could, but even masters can struggle when they’re working with a subpar medium.

Ah yes, managed democracy! Every citizen of Super America enjoys the freedom to make the right choice.

A perpetual license doesn’t mean the company supports it forever; you know that, right? I have a copy of Quickbooks 2015 that I got the license key for from a closing company for about $25. I will never have to pay another dime for it, it’s a perpetual license and will run indefinitely. I just don’t get any updates at all, and I can’t run anything that requires updates or subscriptions like payroll or advanced features. But that’s absolutely fine for my purposes and works the same for many, many people. This is how things should be - if I’m fine with using an outdated version, there is zero reason I need a subscription license.

Longer than that, even! Circa 2003/04 my 14 year old ass was getting chewed out by shitty Karens because they couldn’t fathom the idea of a young teen girl sporting a pixie cut and wearing baggy metal tees, skate jeans and vans. I’ve actually resorted - more than once - to showing my used menstrual products as proof. Well, more as a way to harass them back, but. You know.

Joke’s on me, though, I guess, since I’m actually genderfluid lol.

Yeah, I spend hours digitally sculpting parts sometimes, and then once it’s printed I spend hours filling and sanding the build lines and painting. Having also built parts by hand, they’re equally skilled work in different ways. Digital sculpting is just a lot less messy which means it’s much easier for me to do at home, lol. Do not miss the days of hand-sculpting foam and making silicone molds and fiberglass parts.

Please listen to this dude

Piss flavored dick is disgusting, as I learned from experience with an ex 🤮

Are they? I’m pretty sure half of it was on fire last year.

Petty sure it’s the latter, as his smoke/vape tolerance is high but not crazy. Edibles just don’t do anything to him!

My husband is one of those who isn’t affected hardly at all. He ate an entire 110mg tin of gummies and felt “a little buzzed”. I eat a half a gummy, or sometimes even a quarter, and I’m coasting for a couple hours, lol.

Holy shit I definitely thought she was late 40s, I can’t believe she’s younger than me

Holy balls, I didn’t even zoom in to look at the prongs on that serpent ring. That’s the kind of design made by someone who only ever designs shit and never has to work on the physical product. It looks cool but no one will ever bother to attempt to recreate that if they need to do maintenance. Plus I could easily see the little circles just, bending off and OOP, there goes the stone. There’s a reason prongs are designed the way they are.

Fucking design nerds 🙄 and I say that as someone with more design experience than practical experience - but at least I fucking listen to actual bench jewelers when I do my CAD work.

Jfc

So, my husband is a jeweler. We recently started our own business (mostly repairs right now). These things are largely poorly designed and way overpriced for what they are. Plus, there’s a lot of bullshit like “14k black gold”, which isn’t a thing. It’s possibly 14k white or yellow gold with black rhodium plating, which will wear off in about 2 years and need replating. And there’s one with a 1.5ish carat diamond and a few melee marquis, with no other detailing or anything particularly interesting other than the “14k black gold” bullshit, and they’re trying to sell it for over $10,000 usd. Fucking LOL. This site is trash.

Oh, you’ve got a carb nibbling goblin, too? If we accidentally forget to put away the bagels, the bread, the muffins, the cookies, the cake, the insert whatever carb treat here… We will inevitably wake up to find tiny holes chewed out of the bag or box and shredded crumbs everywhere, including stuck to the little asshole’s fur.

Because it’s only fraud if a normal person makes money from it, duh 🤪
