So I think that might actually be safe if it’s cured bacon? But don’t quote me on that.

Thank you for all the info! That’s awesome. :)

Yeah, I’ll eat beef rare and other things rare (and even pork even though that’s not really supposed to be safe), but I do avoid raw chicken.
And it’s SO ANNOYING because most of these burger places I’ve been to have little disclaimers all over their menu saying “eating raw or undercooked meat can be dangerous blah…

That sounds dangerous. Would it not make a lot of smoke?

I won’t even order burgers at restaurants anymore. Like I don’t generally like them and the only way I DO like them is if the meat is rare. (Which I know might not actually be safe because ground products might not be safe rare but damnit, just give me my fucking food how I want it okay?) And I never ever get them the…

Okay so the sous vide method is something I’ve had suggested to me before as a way to cook steak at home. Traditional steak cooking makes a LOT of smoke, which I wouldn’t mind, but I live in an apartment where the smoke alarm is hooked up to the building’s smoke alarm and it is very embarrassing to set off the…

I could try that. I’ve tried saying “as rare as possible” and I usually still do not get rare.

So rare meat isn’t actually dangerous as long as it’s butchered and stored properly. (Which you probably know.)
And raw eggs aren’t actually dangerous the vast majority of the time. I looked it up a while ago and because of pasteurization and safety standards in the US, your chances of getting salmonella are INCREDIBLY…

I try not to see sexism everywhere, but sometimes I wonder if it is a little sexism. Like I wonder if I a man was ordering it, instead of a very young looking lady person, he would get his meat fucking cooked properly.
But honestly it’s probably mostly just that I go to crappy chain restaurants to get my steak most of…

What’s wrong with Power Point? :(

Like I get why he would want to come back (I’m assuming he has family and friends here), but I’m not sure it’s a good idea even if he can legally come back. His face has been plastered everywhere, and a lot of people have a problem with him.

So just how rude is it to send meat back if they overcook it? I generally won’t send anything back, but I like my meat RARE RARE (like I would probably do blue rare if I thought restaurants would actually do that) and no matter where I go they never give me rare. Unless it’s a steak house, and I can’t afford steak…

I mean, I do only know what Humanism is because I went to college and I took quite a few Philosophy courses as electives. And I know not everyone has that option. But it would be kind of nice if people did a little research about what something actually means before calling themselves that.

I’d like to. I don’t know how this misconception about what humanism means got started, but it’s very annoying.

She definitely deserves to have her dog (and it sounds like she might have kids, so those too) taken away. Fucking disturbingly irresponsible and borderline sociopathic.

Yeah, and I’m disagreeing that there’s a lot more good here than bad depending on your level of privilege. Just because we’re not as bad as some countries doesn’t mean that some people in this country don’t have it quite bad. We don’t need to play oppression olympics - we can acknowledge that things are awful in some…

I am aware, and I never said it was.

I agree that we’re better off than most developing countries, but we’re not better off in many ways than many Westernized 1st world countries.

there’s a lot more good here than bad!

Yeah. I don’t even want to visit the south (although that’s partly because I don’t like their weather), I can’t imagine how hard it would be to live there.
