Oh bullshit. I bought my son a rifle when he was a minor. You know where “his” rifle was when we weren’t actually using it? Locked up in my fucking gun safe.

I agree. I don’t want strangers in my room. Ever. The do not disturb goes on as soon as I enter and doesn’t come off. That being said, I’m usually like 3 nights max and try to leave the room in good shape.

Jail time…

…and fines?

Probably wouldn’t have a problem calling Michael Mike. Would they have a problem calling someone by their birth name if it didn’t follow traditional gender norms? (I knew a girl named Michael)

You’re not going to believe this … I was in a helicopter with both Harris and Trump, and it was going down,…

You can’t actually believe we are worse off now than 100 years ago. Yes, some things are going backwards, like roe due to Republicans. That’s from 1973, so Republicans have brought us back 50 years.

I still have a Slashdot account from 2009. Haven’t been on there much in years though. Google would probably be my oldest actively used account as I still use the one I set up with the initital invite.

Tips are more like a gift than income. I’m fine not taxing tips, but also getting rid of sub minimum wage for tipped workers. Pay min, at least and tax that. Tips are extra and shouldn’t be taxed.

Because the options are baby steps forward, or giant steps backwards.

This has never been an issue. The only forced update at least on PS is if the game is live service online. Stuff like destiny. Otherwise just put your disc in and play.

One is clearly a beheading. The other is just calling the guy an idiot. Sure, both political statements but in no way the same.

When you hire criminals to police people, the person that hired this fuck should also be thrown in for involuntary manslaughter. Same with the pos cops that “voluntarily resign” and get a job a county over. Start holding the people in charge of these decision responsible.

I don’t do it with lots of oil. I mentioned putting bacon fat in a tin can, so we’re talking less than you’d get cooking bacon. See my other reply about semantics of absorb. For small amounts, the oil will emulsify with the soap. Which then can be rinsed away with water. This is how it makes your dishes clean, I’m sure it works the same down the drain.

We’re not in science class.

soap molecules can break the oil molecules into smaller ones and allow the water molecules attached to them to surround the smaller oil fragments, creating an emulsion.

Is close enough in plain english to absorb the oil.

If small amounts of oil that hardens when at room temp, like bacon fat. Throw it in a tin can to cool, garbage when the can fills. Oil that doesn’t harden, personally I put a bunch of dish soap into the oily pan to absorb the oil and wash it down the sink. Not sure if the dish soap does enough but seems safe to me.

If its a large amount, like for deep frying. Local recycling might take it. I know curbside pickup will take used motor oil for me, so I imagine they’d take fryer oil too.

Yes, eggs are washed which removes the protective layer that makes them safe without refrigeration. So our eggs look cleaner, but have to be refrigerated.

Edit. Looking into this a little more and it seems to be different ways to combat stuff like salmonella. I guess most of the world vaccinates the chickens, plus the cuticle on the egg prevents bacteria from entering through the shell. In the US we wash the eggs and refrigerate to prevent it.

Still better than trump. Though if it was her, having Bernie or AoC as VP pick would make me much more motivated to actually vote for her and not just not trump.

And salmon being in the completely safe. Raw or undercooked salmon can be deadly due to a possible parasite or bacteria, don’t recall exactly.

Hawaii has big ones. When I lived there, going to the kitchen at night and opening the fridge or turning on the light almost always had at least one flying towards your face. That’s the only time I’ve seen them fly. Guessing they can’t fly far, but are capable as a quick escape mechanism.

Depends on whether they start making shows with ad breaks in mind. Because the cut where the ad was, while not nearly as annoying as an actual ad, still diminishes the quality of the show imo.
