I also like to heat the pot back up, deglaze it with water, and scrape with my spatula. If there's still gunk stuck on, I'll add more water and bring it to a boil, then it comes right off. Even if the gunk is on the edge of the pot, the steam will loosen it. I could probably boil my plates too, now that I think about it, lol.

Speaking as somebody with a fuller bosom, as you mentioned, the problem is mostly the angle of the shoulder belt. There is an adjustable slide, but it only adjusts four or five inches, which simply isn't enough for the seven inches difference between my partner and I. The end of the belt is by my ear, not my shoulder. I'm constantly tugging the shoulder belt lower when I'm in the car, either passenger or driver, which is really not safe.

In 2018, I was in a car crash. I was driving a 1998 minivan and got t-boned by a 2006 SUV going 55mph. It turned the van into a banana, pushed the driver's seat over to the center. I don't remember the accident itself, but it looks like my head bounced between the B pillar and the airbag/steering wheel, it broke my glasses, cracked my skull, and gave me a subarachnoid brain hemorrhage with a 50/50 survival rate. Literally knocked me cross-eyed, so I was seeing double for forever. It also broke my pelvis into 8 pieces, sliced up my spleen, and broke a few ribs. I still have a bolt holding my pelvis to my spine. Took over a year to recover, then COVID hit while I was trying to get back to work. fml, never doing that again.

Maybe it would have been better if I had side curtain airbags, but the main problem really feels like the seatbelt just doesn't fit.

I bet they're one of those weirdos that wants to outlaw erotic fanfic too.

I was talking to a friend and complaining that the nearest grocery store is 3km from me, he says that Europeans consider that a reasonable distance to the store and I'm just being lazy.

I don't have a car, I don't have a bike, and the bus only comes by every four hours. Am I being unreasonable for not wanting to carry groceries 3km in 30C weather, or is my friend full of shit? Neither of us have been to Europe.

Adam Smasher is actually evil, yes. Anon is ignoring large swaths of backstory for this greentext, lol.

Aluminum is the poster child for recycling, really. It takes more energy to extract it from the ore than it is to recycle it.

Somehow Walmart is leading innovation, launching a butthole logo in '07. Truly ahead of their time.

I'm in the middle of pulling a chat friend out of his programming. His only real problem was being raised in Texas by a Good Ol Boy single father, and once he got out from under his dad's wing, he started to realize that what he was taught simply isn't lining up with reality.

He started out as an incel, but now he's in therapy and has a girlfriend.

I think of it less as 'converting' and more just holding his hand while he figures out that his dad's advice was complete horseshit. It takes forever, and not everybody has the spoons to pull it off, but I do, so I will.

Honestly, 'patriarchy' is a terrible term that leads to so much confusion. Too many people use it as 'blame men' and forget that it's supposed to be about men being culturally cast as perfect leaders and therefore punished for not meeting those impossible standards.

I have high hopes that the spreading acceptance of transfolk will start to break down the weird gender roles we've got, and maybe we can talk about some of this stuff more directly.
