If I'm a despotic president, I'm not going to try to get a new Cornetta Trilogy movie or whatever, I'd just want closure on a certain humble series of fifty indie-folk albums.

Getting into the Aubrey Maturin books as sort of a reading club with my dad who just retired, under the rationale that the movie is the ultimate dad movie so the books must be good for dads as well, and I found out he hasn't even seen the movie.

Everyone on here celebrating and dunking on articles about some guy named Grotch Torbern being in the hospital for lead poisoning, and when I look him up he's a manoverse podcaster with 200 followers known for saying it's gay to take your shoes off when you shower.

Don't understand the boomer/X trope of fighting over the remote control with one's spouse. I hate being responsible for choosing something we will both like. Did previous generations just selfishly put on whatever they wanted to watch with their partner just sitting right there?

Fanduel Sports Network closed captioning absolutely does not know what to do with Naz Reid's name. The other day it was "Nazreen," before that it was "Nars" Reid. Today I'm seeing "Nasri."

My extremely divorced white friend who constantly posts "cut everyone out of your life" self care stuff on Facebook has apparently converted to Islam and has immediately started posting specifically about the plight of the Somali community *in the first person*

Just read The Old Man and the Sea. Pretty good. I liked how Santiago was so keenly aware of his body, his tools, his capabilities. I could never write something like that because I don't pay attention.

Switching off my website so I can fix it to say that I'm just average at chugging piss.
Twitter just got switched off, possibly because the "smartest boy in the world" realized that everyone is laughing at him after he forced his robot to pretend that he was the smartest, best looking, strongest boy ever

Reached 45k words in my first draft. My protagonist is having a rough go of it. He's on trial, and the judge is a guy he shot back in chapter one.

That movie left me with a lot of nagging questions. Are we ever going to get to see these protagonists get old and pass the torch to a new generation of heroes?

It's always a little bit of a letdown when Jeeves's motivation is wanting to go on a vacation instead of trying to get Wooster to get rid of a smoking jacket or a three musketeers hat or something like that.

Even if Trump and all republicans were scrubbed from the epstein files and a bunch of guilty democrats were left in, I would still want that version of the files to be released because I want pedophiles to be caught. If some pedophiles were protected, I would still want to get the other ones.

the first cut of Star Wars the Phantom Menace (“George’s OG Cut”) had a ticking clock in the corner “Countdown til Jar Jar Binks is 18 Space-Years Old” what can I say man times were different back then

![I've found out how to make gourds edible - 2021/02/05
Over the last few weeks I've been experimenting with gourds almost nonstop looking to find a way to turn them around for a profit. I've come up empty. But out of hunger and sheer boredom, I did find a way to make a moderately edible dish out of your standard, thanksgiving table, ornamental gourds.
Here's the recipe:
* Cut all the knobs and warts off the gourd with a knife. Then use a potato peeler to take the skin off. This is really difficult and doesn't need to be perfect, but the less skin the better.
* Fill a large pot with 8 cups water, one cup apple cider vinegar, 1/2 cup salt, and a bay leaf. Stir. Bring this to a rolling boil and add up to four gourds. Put a lid on the pot and boil on high for three hours.
* Remove the gourds and place on a baking sheet. Cut them in half and sprinkle them with generous amounts of salt and paprika.
* Broil on the top rack for 30 minutes, flipping half way through.
* Remove and cut into cubes. Serve over rice.
RHODIUM IS SKYROCKETTING!! INVEST NOW FOR ULTIMATE PROFIT!! - 2021/02/01
This post is an image showing the price of Rhodium increasing suddenly.
Commenter 1: Y'know that old expression, "Buy low, sell high?"
Investing at the top is how you lose money, not make it.
OOP: Wrong. It will only go up. I expect it will reach 40k by mid-April.
Commenter 2: That may be, but Rhodium is a fickle bitch
People following metals for a while know that Rhodium makes these moon shots every once in a while and crashes just as quickly.
There was a run up at this time last year, and it crashed in March.
I see it testing $10,000 again before it goes to $40k.

I have just received Uruguayan citizenship and I have some questions - 2021/01/27
Hello Uruguay! My mother (wife to a Uruguayan man) has claimed her citizenship, and because of that I now have it. I have lived in Oklahoma all my life, but I speak Spanish quite well and know some of the Uruguayan culture through my stepfather. Right now I am in a not very nice situation with my finances and I want a fresh start, so I plan to move to Uruguay in March. I have never visited your country, and I am a little worried about the transition.
- How is Melo? I have acquaintances in that city, so I'm thinking of living there at first.
- I don't have many strengths, but I have worked for a year in a supermarket. What industry has the most opportunities for foreigners? He preferred to work in the fields, or at least outdoors.

How is the legality of informal beekeeping? - 2021/03/04
I'm from the US and you can keep bees here without many rules. My cousin has some beehives in his garden and they produce a good amount of natural honey. I am moving to uruguay soon, and I want to become something of an amateur beekeeper. What I want to know is if there are any regulations or whatever regarding beekeeping. Thank you!

Seventeen-year-olds obviously don't look all that different from legal adults, but also, human meat doesn't smell or taste all that different from pork, and that doesn't make the visceral disgust at the very idea of eating human meat any less real.
