What the heck are you even talking about right now?

You don’t think you could hit your macros with lentils? High protein, high fiber, calories for days. Throw in something like coconut oil and you’re gold. I only discovered lentils in the last few years since, yeah they don’t sound appetizing and are considered “poor people” food. Turns out they are great for you, delicious, cheap, and full of protein. I’m just mad it took me so long to find out about them.

Look - you love meat. It’s easy. We get it. But lets not pretend you couldn’t get the equivalent nutrition from other sources.

What if we just like… just do it over the poles?
I’m an idiot.

There’s a lot of “Weekend At Bernie’s” going on in Congress these days huh?

Ironically Bernie is one of the least comatose of the bunch.

It’s crazy (sad) how much we are all starting to have to rely on the EU to save us from the BS.

Less drug sniffing dogs and more COVID sniffing dogs at airports please.

I’ll take my slightly good news where I can get it. I’m begging for scraps over here!

I mean yeah. Once other “financial assets” become more attractive (bonds at 5.5%?) maybe less parasitical activity will happen in the housing market. The whole thing started going off the rails when rates dropped to essentially nothing.

If you think current home owners have it bad, imagine anyone trying to get in the market now. Not only are mortgages 3X the price, but the houses are 2X the price they were before. The entire thing is completely unsustainable, and yet the Feds have done fuck all. Well no, actually they have made it worse every single step of the way (see the first time home buyers savings account for the latest idiotic idea).

Honestly surprised there isn’t more. There’s a lot of money that would be lost if the fediverse became more mainstream.

We’re going to need to do something as heavier electric vehicles become the norm. It’s actually kind of insane how many microplastica come from vehicle tires.

Obvious a very low level study, but as someone with tinnitus any progress in their area is exciting!

Ever feel like you’re just a subject in a giant plastic and forever chemical experiment? Yikes.

I see no way they aren’t a competitor. Meta is a company. Companies exists to make money. Meta makes money by driving engagement and then monitizing via ads or user data sale for others to target ads.

Like are we all supposed to pretend a company, Meta of all companies, is an altruistic entity? Because that’s not how it works… At all.

Remove corporations from social networks.

Hopefully kbin comparability is an option once their API is sorted

I would argue we also don’t want to be in a place where we rely on any one individual. Thankfully @ernest seems to understand that as well.

We must go lower!

It’s crazy that they would subsidize electric cars above electric bikes to me. I get subsidizing both, but it seems like bikes should have been prioritized.

This would honestly improve the quality of life for so many people.

I feel you on this one

Given the progress in just the last year… that’s terrifying.

Do we know if there have been any releases since the influx of users? Or are they just focusing on backend stuff still?

There’s still a lot of long hanging fruit *COUGHcollapsingthreads that would be great to have addressed sooner rather than later.
