Oven full of carbohydrates = good

Oven full of hydrocarbons = bad

Wow. This means that now, someone can say that medical bills literally cost them an arm & a leg.

It’s the same capsaicin you know and love, but with the additional burn of hydrochloric acid!

In case anyone came to the comments looking for directions on how to opt out:

1. Go to Settings. 2) Scroll down and select “Photos.” 3) Locate the “Enhanced Visual Search” option. Turn off the toggle.

I imagine that phenomenon is similar to how super sheltered kids become the wildest teenagers/young adults (whichever age they are when they first get a taste of freedom.) Like how people with newfound freedom often party hard with it, people who’ve never been in a position of power before can easily take their new authority too far.

Totally not excusing it. It’s not some inevitable “human nature” thing. There are good parents, teachers, and others in positions of authority that take their responsibility to others seriously. They’re the ones that allow some modicum of function in society.

But those who seek power for its own sake are going to be ruthless about it. Then once someone has power, it’s extremely difficult for them to let it go.

Spoken rhymes rely on repeating a similar sound. I imagine a “rhyme” in sign language would probably involve repeating a similar gesture. The fun of rhymes is in the similarity and repetition, after all. If two (or more) signs involve making a similar pattern, it’s probably amusing to pair them together in the same way it’s amusing to pair two rhyming spoken words.

And yet when we pointed out that Project 2025 talked about banning porn, a lot of people didn’t think it was serious. This is just one way that such an idea can play out.

I don’t think porn could ever be fully banned - prohibition doesn’t work. (Besides, I already made a promise to create erotic art specifically in order to spite any such enacted law.) But considering how modern porn and its variety has enabled many people to acquire niche preferences, this is still going to trigger a challenging time for a lot of people.

Autocorrected spelling helps with a lot, but it doesn’t help with run-on sentences that lack punctuation. Nobody’s expecting punctuation like an English teacher, but when you have to re-read a comment several times to make any sense of it, that’s simply poor communication.
