It has no additional flavor other than adding sweetness. I would rather have no syrup than "fake" pancake syrup (e.g. Ms Butterworths).

I much prefer maple syrup. Of course it is expensive, so the Log Cabin table syrup is a good substitute that still has actual flavor and is affordable.

Edit: Also if you still want maple flavor for cheaper, a mix of half maple and half cane works good, like the stuff at Cracker Barrel. It doesn't deserve the hate.

For me it's calculating. Too many people put math into their search engines and not their calculator.

Yeah I think it's best we don't advertise this place. It's a little strange.

I read the section two definition of "chemical and surgical mutilation" and it mentions altering sex organs to remove their biological functions. One of the biological functions of a penis is to produce sperm. So could this mean no more federal coverage for vasectomies as well as stuff like tubal litigation or hysterectomies? And yes, I know that people under 19 don't usually get permanent sterilization procedures anyways, but I still wonder about this interpretation.

The phrase “chemical and surgical mutilation” means the use of puberty blockers, including GnRH agonists and other interventions, to delay the onset or progression of normally timed puberty in an individual who does not identify as his or her sex; the use of sex hormones, such as androgen blockers, estrogen, progesterone, or testosterone, to align an individual’s physical appearance with an identity that differs from his or her sex; and surgical procedures that attempt to transform an individual’s physical appearance to align with an identity that differs from his or her sex or that attempt to alter or remove an individual’s sexual organs to minimize or destroy their natural biological functions. This phrase sometimes is referred to as “gender affirming care.”

It's a bit obnoxious. I make this excellent chili for family gatherings and nobody ever calls it just "chili". They always say "vegan chili".

The other day I made some pumpkin bread. When me and my dad went over to my grandmas house, we brought it. My dad announced "She made some vegan pumpkin bread!". Grandma knows I am vegan. So of course if I made it, it will be vegan, no need to state that.

I know this is a really stupid pet peeve that will probably get me downvoted to oblivion, but idk. Maybe someone here also gets it.

Of course you'll have a better time talking about gender with other gender enthusiasts. It's like complaining about how normies can't have a conversation with you about cars for as long as car enthusiasts could.

I don't think it's the distros job to look visually appealing. That's the job of the desktop environment. Seriously I wish distributions would just ship vanilla desktop environments. All of the themed variants always have some issues. Maybe I'm just old and stubborn but that's my opinion.

12 and 14 are pretty close, I'm sure those o-rings will be fine.

Worse case scenario, we gotta make an extension that detects the ad UI and blanks the screen and mutes the audio until its over

Their AI chatbot has a name suspiciously close to Aryan, and it's trained to deny the holocaust.

Where did the recent air fryer trend come from anyway?

Clearly you don't own an air fryer

A sad reminder that transphobia and other forms of hate affect us all, not just the ones who are primarily targeted.
