  • Trump warns voters that his second term would get ‘nasty’ at times | According to Donald Trump and his allies, his second term would be "nasty," "bloody," and filled with "hardships" for many

    A message to the United States, from an European.

  • Its been scary seeing a massive, anti-ukrainian conservative wave after the Ukraine invasion. I was shocked seeing it happen in Europe, especially with Italy Slovakia, and with Hungary and Turkey incumbents somehow staying in power despite economic catastrophes. Now I am horrified to see it has spread to America.

    I've been watching the war closely and was hoping that Ukraine could win after increased aid after the election, but it looks like its going to dry up. This reminds me of pro-Hitler Americans during WW2. Shouting "America first!" And clamoring to cut aid to Britain and the USSR.

    Again we see "America first!" While cutting support to Europe, Ukraine, Korea, Japan, and everyone else, except Israel (funny how that works?). I dont think there was any time "america first" wasn't a fascist dog whistle.

    I am now scared the Ukraine war will be akin to the Polish uprising during Nazi occupation. A united, determined people, brave enough to frighten the devil, crushed by overwhelming ignorance and fascism.

  • Get the frozen pre-made meal or just make it yourself?

  • I also have ADHD and I use it to process a gigantic batch that will last me months. Like making a gallon's worth of pasta sauce.

  • Pro tip, make the premade stuff. Make like a gallon of pasta sauce and freeze/can it all. Make like 5 pounds of meatballs and freeze them.

    I like to make my pasta sauce when I can, from tomatoes. If you are a fast chopper, it goes by really quickly. Super thin slice it, add some diced enough, maybe some shredded carrot and celery, add some crushed garlic, salt, pepper and some seasonings. In around an hour or so you will have made a bunch of it.

    Also look for professional advice for canning, cause idk if my way is the safest. I boil some water in the can in the microwave, dump it then add the pasta sauce, and close it really tight with an oven mitt.

    I also grind my own meat, with just a knife. Dice the meat into small cubes and mince it for a while. I do it until it can form a cohesive meatball. Also consider what you'll use it for, if its just being tossed in a bolognese sauce, it doesn't need to be so fine.

    You can make pizzas ahead of time too, roll the dough, add marinara, mozzarella and wrap it in foil and put it in the freezer.

    I make my own stock too. I'll collect bones and veggie scraps in a freezer bag, and when it's full, I dump it in a slow cooker, set it and forget it. The store bought stuff is basically just water. If it's tasteless, it's baseless.

    I've also frozen lasagna portions too, fully cooked. If raw its impossible to cook them without completely de-thawing them.

    I also have a box of instant cake batter I mixed together myself. It's like a year old but it's still not terrible!

  • Get cleats for your shoes. Black ice (nearly invisible ice) is terrifying. It can form basically everywhere and sometimes salt doesn't always remove all of it.

    When using salt, its the salt water that melts the ice. So if theres a slope on your driveway, then place most of the salt at the top, so the sale water flows down and melts the rest. Same with stairs.

    Not sure where you are moving to, but here in the states the mailman tried to sue my parents because he slipped on their stairs and broke something. So make sure to clear the area to your mail box thoroughly.

    We all know its stupid to stick our tongue on a steel pole but it can happen to any part of you if its cold enough. Be careful touching metal without gloves on.

  • Recommendations for dumb tech?

  • Been personally skeptical of fairphone after they removed the headphone jack, and started selling wireless earbuds for like 200$. That has ruined my trust with their good intentions. They are at least a step in the right direction, but just a step.

  • Do any non-corpos actually like AI slop?

    Jump

  • To me AI is useless. Its not intelligent, its just a blender that blends up tons of results into one hot steaming mug of "knowledge". If you toss a nugget of shit into a smoothie while it's being blended, it's gonna taste like shit. Considering the amount of misinformation on the internet, everything AI spits out is shit.

    It is purely derivative, devoid of any true originality with vague facade of intelligence in an attempt to bypass existing copyright law.

  • How do you battle depression by your own?

    Jump

  • I found gaining an interest in hobbies that are difficult gave me a will to live. I want to experience mastering all of these crafts that take decades to master.

    Cooking, drawing, woodworking. Becoming a master of just one is hard enough, so every minute is extremely precious. I try to spend as much time as possible practicing and learning.

    I can't think of suicide because I worked so hard to male this much progress, and I still want to experience my other hobbies.

    One's craft helps one's life. An old Japanese saying.

  • It cannot be anti-inadvisable to never not use your toaster oven sometimes to not heat your room not because it isn't not safe but definitely dangerous.
