I went without Facebook for about 7 years. I went through the account deletion process. After meeting my now wife, she wanted to be able to send me stuff she sees on there. W/E I'll just use my old email address and spin up a new account... Low and behold, my account was still there... I went through and manually deleted all of my posts, chats, liked pages, everything. My account is now just a place for my wife to share reels.

I don't like Facebook but I have found it convenient to be able to use the marketplace again.

There's also some kind of new illness rapidly killing people in the Congo after some kids ate a bat.

You should also use a calorie calculator to see what your maintenance caloric intake is. I.e. how many calories your body burns a day with your average routine. Then it's just a matter of eating less than that to lose weight or more than that to gain weight.

Edit: just wanted to say that cutting/reducing carbohydrate intake is definitely a good idea like you mentioned.

If I HAD to choose a car and it could be anything... I would want an electric RV that's covered in solar panels. I don't care if I could only move it 10 miles a day, I would nomad my ass around just living the dream.

If you split it in half, you'd probably be fine. But yeah...

The main difference being that France is 248,573 mi² (643,801 km2)

The contiguous United States is 3,119,000 mi² (8,080,464.3 km²)

France also has a 3.5x higher population density

Inhabitants/km²

  • France: 124.4

I hope by the time the next election comes around, assuming we will ever have another election, that we endorse a new party and completely abandon the democratic party in favor of something like a labor party. Maybe, just maybe, we have seen the Democrats vs. Republicans for the last time.

This country had different parties before, we can have different parties again.

I deleted my Facebook account years ago, probably right around 2016. I met a new girl last year and she wanted me to make a Facebook account so she could send me stuff. I relented and made a "new" account using the same email I used back in 2016. Low and behold, Facebook never deleted a fucking thing.

School Maintenance Director here. They do this shit all the time. I have to plan all of my maintenance and construction around the idea that, at some point, some little shit is going to rip a urinal or water fountain off the wall. It's not even an if, but a when. Schools would be a great place to work if it wasn't for all the kids and teachers.
