Icon is a reverse medusa. Don’t send me asks about it please.

Does this mean that Cheetos are the perfect snack?
I don’t think there’s much protein in those things
I never had the patience to get good at the ukulele or the guitar for a number of reasons but at least part of it is that you’ve gotta keep your nails trimmed to play a string instrument.
There were literally days where I was like “hm I should practice the guitar but I don’t wanna trim my nails” and so I just didn’t
I still kind of want to learn the guitar or the bass because playing an instrument and singing does in fact feel pretty good but I kind of hate trimming my nails more than I like playing string instruments

The reason your snacks are unsatisfying is that you need both carb and protein.
Carb starts your engine, protein keeps it going.
No carb, engine don’t start. No protein, engine dies out fast.
Easy carb add on:
Cookie
Fruit (canned or fresh)
Chips
Piece of bread
Popcorn
Crackers
Easy protein add on:
Nuts
Spoonful of nut butter
Cheese
Roasted chickpea snacks
Glass of milk (dairy or non dairy)
Small canned sausages or similar
So for people seriously allergic to nuts, is there something that is as easily accessible as nuts that could replace that? Like, are sunflower seeds equal to nuts?
Sunflower seeds do have ~5 grams protein per ounce eaten(shelled calculation), almonds have ~6 and cashews ~5 so yeah, they're comparable.
If allergic to both, I know jerky sticks have suited me well as a quick protein source that's shelf stable and easy to carry, but for environments with refrigeration, cheese is good and cheaper than jerky
IT’S MARCH
Uh… It’s still May…
It’s august
Hey dude. Couldn't help but notice that the peaceful backing music cut out when you fixed me with a glare uncharacteristic of the traits we've seen you display so far. What was that all about.
One of my uncles runs a business that designs and manufactures souvenir magnets for tourist shops in the west coast and Hawaii and he’s started considering putting a logo on the back that says “no AI designs” or something similar because some designers in his market have started doing that and it’s pissing him off
I love looking through souvenir shops during my travels and learning that my beloved overpriced tourist knickknacks are sometimes being designed by AI broke my heart a little bit I’m not gonna lie.

Having chronic issues with your intestines leads you to wondering several times a week if your appendix is about to burst.
I’ve gotten familiar with how to test if it’s my appendix and it never is and yet the thought remains.
I kind of wish I could just get the thing removed as a precautionary measure but I don’t think medi-cal covers that kind of thing

Drump is still trying to blame Biden for everything that’s going wrong as if that guy didn’t spend his entire term cleaning up that man’s mess.
He’s not even focusing on the bad stuff he actually did do
It’s the eternal pattern of American politics. Republicans mess up the country, people get tired of it. Democrats are voted in. They spend all their time in office fixing what the republicans broke and are bad at effectively communicating what they got done. People are still suffering from what the republicans did. People somehow decide the republicans will fix this. They vote in the republicans. Rinse and repeat.
The democrats obviously have a lot wrong with them but they’re more effective at getting shit done than people give them credit for. The problem is that a lot of their getting shit done energy is forced to be spent rebuilding everything that the last guys just blew up.
I’m almost certain it’ll happen again, you know. After Drump some other mediocre Democrat will get elected, spend two years getting shit done and fixing what he did, in the midterms everyone will forget what they were mad about and not get out to vote, meaning the republicans will take over either the house or the senate or both.
Then the president and Congress will be locked in a stalemate, probably get reelected to their second term, shit isn’t getting done because they’re in a stalemate with Congress, and then people will be like “well why isn’t the president doing anything? Clearly the democrats are wrong” and then vote in a Republican. Republican gets shit done in a bad way with a Republican Congress, they get a democratic Congress after their first midterms, they are now locked in a stalemate, rinse and repeat.
One problem as well that has become very obvious to people outside the US and probably within is that there's seemingly no continuity. A president comes in and undoes all of the stuff the last one did. The next one turns up and undoes the undoing. And then another comes in and redoes what was undone. Policy, foreign and domestic, veer wildly like a car being driven by two people fighting over the steering wheel. Countries up until now have planned assuming that wouldn't happen, but now they need to hope nothing will change but plan for if it does.
And I agree. I think that the US is going to get a huge amount of Democrats in for the midterms (which is probably better than the current shower in charge), Trump will find everything slowed to a crawl, a Democrat president will get in, have two years to try and do stuff, and then the midterms will roll round and the Republicans will get back in, and then the new president will be hamstrung, and another Republican (Vance?) will get in.
It's possible it won't happen. But...
The term limits are a good thing in my opinion because they put a legal limit on how long one person can be in power. I personally think that the Supreme Court and Congress should also have term limits. They also give politicians the freedom to try things in their last term that are slightly more controversial which can be good or bad.
The side effect of this attempt to prevent dictatorship though is that there isn’t always as much continuity. You’re right about that.
Though there’s certain parts of foreign policy we’ve always mostly been consistent on (even if it is consistently bad) but Drump has broken a lot of those longstanding norms for very stupid reasons.
W. Bush and Obama didn’t have identical foreign policies for example but keeping a good relationship with NATO was always a priority. Drump has just thrown that out the window now for no good reason.
ugh of course this is a pro-crackers with Peanut Butter blog. i thought better of you
