These people have no problem driving or taking care of themselves, I’m sure plenty shouldn’t be driving, but doing something like shopping and then walking your groceries back home simply isn’t an option for a lot of people even if public transportation was more robust. Sure, past a certain point everyone loses independence, but there are plenty that don’t need to that you are advocating should

That’s a fantastic movie

Thankskilling

Rural life definitely, but I’m in suburbia hahaha. I just can’t imagine public transportation being able to replace what a car can do for elderly people

I’m not like super pro car or anything but your argument in my experience doesn’t really hold up. I work at a farm and we have a lot of elderly folks come in and shop by themselves. They drive themselves and shop themselves but I doubt they could do that with a walker and if they didn’t have a car I doubt they’d be finding a different way to come out here.

Cause I’m lazy and cheap and would rather throw on one of the hundreds of N95s I have lying around in my garage

I blacksmith bro. I swing a 5 pound hammer with one hand for hours with a 1400° fire a few feet away from me, while wearing heat insulation gloves in the summer. I wear an N95 because if I don’t I’ll cough out coal dust for the next 2 days, and I’m sure as shit not looking forward to finding out how that feels when I’m 80. Oh and I’m significantly overweight. If I could do it everyone else is just bitching.

It might have a name but I honestly have no idea. Went to a nice butcher shop in new york that had a nice restaurant on the side and they had it on the menu. To be honest I don’t know if I’ve had it anywhere else. I reverse engineered it after the dinner to make at home cause it was just that good, one of my favorite dishes to make if I’m having company over cause it’s literally impossible to dislike. The date/bacon/brussel sprouts combo has that perfect mix of savory/sweet/smokeyness.

Antisemitism was prevalent long before the Catholic Church, and was prevalent outside of the church. Unfortunately it’s one of those things that is just shitty behavior, and not exclusively a shitty church thing

That’s a bit of a stretch don’t you think. I don’t like the church either but saying they’re responsible for the Holocaust is quite a leap lmfao

It is amazing, one of my favorite dishes

It’s actually super good, like meat flavored butter

While roasting them add some diced dates, bacon, onions and maybe peppers and you have the best dish ever made

My immediate thought lmfao

So of course tomatoes eaten directly off the plant are gonna be “superior” (I personally prefer them a bit cold but that’s just preference), storing tomatoes like potatoes or onions is just completely incorrect if mostly because when you tell people to do that, they’re gonna immediately go to stick them under their sink. While potatoes and onions do well in cool dry storage, they still have a resistance to temperatures above what anyone should be storing tomatoes at.

While it’s correct to state that tomatoes shouldn’t be stored at temperatures below 40°F, saying “don’t refrigerate tomatoes” is complete BS. Most refrigerators aren’t cooling down to the 30 range, and even if they are your tomato is still gonna do better there than in is on your shelf if you’re trying to keep it for a longer period of time.

That being said, if you have a tomato that you want to ripen a bit, store it out of the fridge on your counter, it will help it out a bit. But as for a ripe tomato? Keep it in your fridge. We pick hundreds of pounds of tomatoes a week at my farm, most of them are sold only a day or two after picking at our farm stand, but we still have to refrigerate them over night because if we don’t, they will turn to shit, and no one is gonna pay to eat a shitty tomato that’s been festering overnight during a hot summer, especially if you live in a humid area. Potatoes and onions on the other we leave out overnight and they do fine for days without any discernable difference.

Refrigerate your tomatoes, keep your fridge set to a reasonable temp (40-44°F), do not treat your tomatoes like onions or potatoes.

As a vegetable farmer I disagree. Tomatoes do not store well like potatoes, please throw them in your fridge.

Fire emblem?

I really don’t care about making memes about 9/11, jokes about anything can be funny, but if you’re gonna do it at least make sure it’s a good one. This is both offensive and unfunny, which is the ultimate sin lmfao

The amount of idiots sitting here defending right wing propaganda trolls is fucking incredible. No one wants them, and they ruin everything they come in contact with, ban them. It’s not the end of the world, and if they wanna spread their bullshit let them pay for their own server to host it on. ThE fAr LeFt nEoLiBeRaL eLiTe ArE SiLeNcInG uS. Get real, no one buys your bullshit, and no one wants to pretend to have a conversation with you

What’s everyone’s opinion on Re:0 season 2? I absolutely loved season 1 but hated the second season, am very sad to feel like I lost one of my favorite animes so soon into its life
