One thing to consider is that delivery and takeout are significantly more popular than they were 4 years ago. Some of these chains either anticipate or encourage you to heat your cookies just before you eat them and halfway cooking them gives the best results. A place just down the road from me encourages 1 minute on high in the air fryer or 3 in a toaster oven before eating

I did. I voted in the primary for a normal-ass guy and then voted for him again in the house. The Shapiros party gerrymandered him out of his office. Sorry you guys keep voting for lunatics, but you reap what you sow

I’d be interested to see what polls say about NC with the Robinson stuff by next week

Honestly reading through everything I don’t even know if that’s the worst part. These stuck out to me:

"Get that f*cking commie bastard off the National Mall!,” Robinson wrote about the dedication of the memorial to King in Washington, DC, by then-President Barack Obama.

“I’m not in the KKK. They don’t let blacks join. If I was in the KKK I would have called him Martin Lucifer Koon!"

And in my opinion the worst one so far:

“Slavery is not bad. Some people need to be slaves. I wish they would bring it back. I would certainly buy a few”

Reading the headline my first thought was “wait, didn’t I solo old content for gear and mounts?” but here I see this is about soloing current content. As an ex-wow current FFXIV player I think this is a great move. Giving players access to more content is great, especially if it’s story relevant. They still keep high-end gear and challenges for hardcore players and there’s still regular progression content for everyone else

I love being able to throw 150 books into my backpack, pocket, or briefcase. Especially when it means that all of them have the same font, text size, and margins. I bought mine when libraries closed down with covid and it’s one of the best $100 purchases I’ve made

2001 A Space Odyssey by Arthur C. Clarke: I’m about 70% of the way in and it’s pretty good. I really enjoy reading early/pre-space age stories because the ideas about what would and wouldn’t work in space are so fascinating. The way he talks about moon life, interstellar travel times/methods, and more show so much creativity. It’s also interesting to see the difference between movie HAL9000 and book HAL9000. I’m excited to watch the movie again after I’m done
