instead of just telling each other what we want to say, it's wrapped in layers of bullshit.

So...just like now but with less personal bullshit. Office AI sanitized bullshit.

I'm ok now but for many years anything coconut would roil my stomach. Thank you Malibu rum.

I read your statement completely contrary to your intent, that's how it's a bad thing!

My oops

Fair enough. I don't know that I've ever had a grocer with consistently bruised/rotted onions. I'll go ahead and put that in the plus column.

answer is NO... you don't get a turn clown. This shit stops

Good. I think too many in gen x just got crushed by being so devoid of agency, politically speaking, that they just gave up. It's been a struggle watching this country I was told to love and support unconditionally continuously spiral downward because the generation that preceeded me milked the system for all it was worth before stealing the same opportunities for social and economic advancement from future generations.

"Each subreddit creates its own Community Points token, with a custom name and symbol."

So based on the art in that panel: communities for a fidget spinner, pinwheel , and a brick...

Seems like par for the course.

What is a "better" onion? More variety, maybe? Onions come in two kinds for me (other than type) edible and not; not a lot of spectrum on onion quality for me I guess.

Just about any other fruit or vegetable I can accept the varying quality of produce but onions and potatoes are either firm and good or mushy and not for me.

Or I could be overthinking what was probably an arbitrarily pulled example for an explanatory analogy.

Don't forget about bangs for searching alternate sites: https://duckduckgo.com/bangs !w = wikipedia, !e = ebay, !zillow = guess, !r = reddit, etc

Just put your bang in front of the rest of the search you want to do on that site: !g why doesn't Google use bangs? !ddg Why does Duck Duck Go use bangs?
