I have told someone their boss won't go to heaven if he's Boss Baby, and now I'm requesting to see a pikachu dressed as a clown. This is great

Digital illustration of four young ballet students at a dance studio. The girl sitting in the foreground is lit by a spotlight and is scratching her head with both hands. In the background by the barre and mirror, one girl in a ballet pose whispers to two others on either side of her "...lice". The other girls look shocked and nervous.

This time it's just out of nowhere. People aren't going to be nearly as collectively accepting of the loss of their relatives for something like this.

Yup. They truly don't see them as human beings, but pawns to be used to do the dirty work then discarded in service of whatever the higher ups feel like doing.
At the very least with the last big war there was an inciting incident that got americans and even a lot of non americans on their side.

Also just wtf kind of response did they think they'd get from the soldiers they were talking to? For them to hip hip hooray about being told "we plan to ki/l you and everyone you know, but don't worry, if you're good you'll go to heaven"?

It really does work a lot better than the previous method, even if I still do have to check each one with the flashlight for stragglers. There's just way fewer clingers on this way, and feels a lot less tedious.

Anyway, hooray for broccoli season! They're so good seasoned and roasted 💚

I used to wash them one at a time, then carefully inspect each one with a flashlight. I'd inevitably have to rinse and repeat after reinspecting, as many times as needed.

Now I prewash the lot in a big bowl with hot soapy water, agitating a lot, then spot check each one before rinsing. 2/3

I'm really glad I figured out how to deal with washing aphidy broccoli in time for these purple sprouting broccoli to start ramping up in production.
Because I don't use any kind of pesticide, there's often aphids hiding in some of the little broccoli sprouts that are a pain to wash out. yuck. 1/3

if the US government logs these trees at the rate / quantity they're proposing, we'll lose one of the last old-growth forests. there's no coming back from that. if you have five minutes to leave a comment pushing back against the BLM, please do; there's a guide to that below.
