I really enjoy cooking and enjoy reading about the science behind it. So chemistry/biochem, I guess? For any interested J. Kenji Lopez-At is a good and approachable source.

Also for those that like astronomy and also beer, look for an Astronomy on Tap chapter near you! They are an org that puts on presentations about astronomy in bars. Dunno about other chapters, but my city's chapter is free to attend.

Calm down, it's for primaries.

Consider that gender is a made up concept and one can actually pick and choose any part of any gender norm to apply to themselves.

Also consider that your friend might not be ready for a potential next step in their gender discovery journey and you should respect that. Just be a safe person to come out to when/if they're ready. Choosing their pronouns for them is both rude as fuck and potentially dangerous for them.

You asked what it would accomplish if the US stops giving Israel money (which I read as aid in general)

The accomplishment would that the US would no longer be giving money and weapons to a country committing genocide. I did not say that this would stop the genocide, I realize that Biden has no intrinsic ability to stop it. But we can absolutely blame him for contributing still. It is absolutely Biden's fault that he is using his 60 days discretion for funding military action before the senate weighs in, and it isn't some logical fallacy to say that we should not be doing that.

Also, Biden could actually start guiding US diplomats to pressure Israel more by not vetoing UN resolutions that would aid Palestine/attempt to curb Israel's genocidal action.

Just like with any other issue, multiple layers of effort can help reduce said issue. Masks, airflow, testing, and vaccines don't stop COVID, but they do a pretty good job at reducing risk and illness. Although the US cannot unilaterally stop Israel from bombing the hell out of innocents, the US can certainly do a few things to make it clear that they should stop.

You're entitled to your opinion! I would have liked them more if they were junkier, but to me they were more of a polished mid-century/greaser asthetic that didn't fit in on a sand planet. Street gang on Coruscant? That casino planet I forget the name of? Sure, why not! But Tatooine? Nah, too polished. Sand is ruining that paint in one joy ride.

Yikes. I don't like Trump or Trump supporters (or Republicans/Republican supporters for that matter), but you've gotta calm down, my guy.

These people have spent their lives gaslighted by bad people, that's no reason to kill them. One of my favorite people was raised VERY evangelist, another friend raised Mormon, and they've educated themselves out of that.

We don't euthanize people with stubbed toes, nor should we abandon those that are being gaslit and lied to constantly. They already get their just desserts by living under the policies of those they voted for.

Also, ableist slurs? Do better.

Bg3 and The Finals, depending on my mood.

Bg3 is great, super happy that they fixed some of the worst bugs in the last patch (like being shot at by enemies through the floor when you are on the 2nd floor of a building).

The Finals definitely needs some balancing changes made, but I'm still enjoying it. Excited to see how the game grows, it will probably replace Apex Legends for me if they keep fixing it.

Hell, I'd be fine for in-game adverts in sensible and relatively unintrusive spots (like a Spiderman 2 ad on a times square billboard in Spiderman 1/Miles Morales). But that won't happen.

Hello! I am interested in MORDHAU if it is still available.

Thanks for doing this!
