I prefer to pay for content and have it ad-free. I will tolerate some content if ad-supported is the only way.

Don’t give me this “gas prices vs. inflation” misleading crap.

It’s mind-blowing how people can borrow money and think they shouldn’t have to pay it back. Other than medical debt, which you have no control over, you decided to borrow to money and you agreed to the terms. You are responsible to pay it back.

i use sir/ma’am when answering to a cop. it calms them down by acknowledging their authority. it would be stupid not to calm down a nervous cop. you wanna call them something else? that’s your own stupid problem.

at my ripe old age i’m starting to get called “sir” regularly, and it’s fine. i will always err on the side of indicating respect by using a “sir” or a “ma’am,” and i’ve never had anyone “flip their shit” if i happened to be incorrect (like on the phone, for instance). this kind of feels like a solution in search of a…

People who deserve respect don’t need to ask for it.

Wait, there are modern browsers that don’t automatically open all your tabs when you open the browser?

Probably at least a little irresponsible to not mention credible accusations of collusion and price-gouging? There was another, deadlier flu outbreak in 2015, but egg prices didn’t rise nearly as much then. I’ll buy that there’s increased demand, but there’s also been a lot less market competition in recent years.

And then you go to say that there hasn’t been any established link, just a plausible mechanism of causality that doesn’t even have a level near a LOAEL attached to it. The only reason you’re saying there’s a link is because conservatives said there isn’t.

You realize this isn’t even about children getting asthma? That is just gaslighting(pun intended). It’s about climate change and fossil fuels. Did you see the recent clip of a CNN host suggesting it was more about climate change and then saying “sorry im getting in trouble” because apparently someone talking into her…

What modern home has a gas range without an externally vented hood?

Most (all?) commercial carpet deodarizer products are mostly baking soda.  People have been using it for decades on carpets, with no problem.  I suspect the issue now is that weak robot and stick vacuums have become so popular.

People have vacuum cleaners that are not powerful enough to lift small particles slightly larger than dust? That’s generally what vacuums do best.  The problem is a poor vacuum, not the use of baking soda.

The previous laws kept a lot of people from carrying concealed. Those people were never a threat. If a law against carrying a gun kept you from carrying one, the overwhelming odds are you obey laws against murder.

Surprisingly, “Your refrigerator was built by Samsung,” was not on the list. The number of YouTube videos about addressing ice-maker issues is voluminous—a fact I wish I would have checked in addition to the Consumer Reports review before we purchased ours.

I just put the sliver on top of the new bar of soap while they’re both wet. They tend to just kinda merge into each other. Why throw them away?

NoNo pic of a fish spatula for those of us kitchen-challenged?

So if your landlord is not providing value, why have one? You can always just go buy a place on your own. What, you can’t or don’t want to “for reasons”? Well I guess THAT is the value that your landlord is providing, now isn’t it?

I mean, if that’s how you want to live your life. :D

All of these methods are way too much effort. Just smush the old sliver of soap into the top of the new bar before you get out of the shower. By the time you’re ready for your next shower, it’ll have hardened into a new super bar, no C-clamp required.
