Why don't you self-identify as a feminist?

Soooo anyway, a couple months ago or so I remember someone mentioning that they had gone to get their car inspected and the tech plugged something into their cigarette outlet for testing purposes and the poster wanted to know what the gently caress. I don't remember anyone providing an answer but I might have just missed it.

This is probably the answer. Short version is measuring inductance to determine when a spark plug fires and based on how often that happens (and probably some settings for number of cylinders and plugs) RPM can be determined.

The word is too loaded and some female feminists I've met resent males who call themselves the same. I've helped campaign for an equal rights amendment in my state the past three times its come up and help start a job training program for low-income single mothers when I was in college. I hire women over men every time they're competitive candidates and every year I donate several hundred to several thousand dollars of goods and services to the local shelter. I think women are terribly objectified by our media and millions of men who consume that media, I think they should be legally entitled to the same pay for the same work, I think they should be legally entitled to maternity leave, I think they should have access to free reproductive and sexual health care, I think it is horrific how we do not support victims of sexual harassment, abuse, or rape, and I generally think they are unfairly treated in most walks of life and have been for thousands of years and I understand why they're pissed.

When some recent journalism grads get on the internet and think the way to solve the problem is to generalize and name call, I get upset. Perhaps my strongest belief in life is that we should treat and accomodate people the same, regardless of sex, race, fundamental abilities, ethnic extraction, etc, and our society falls far short of that. I don't think vitriol solves the problem, it just makes it worse.

When the latest internet feminist campaign says men shouldn't be allowed to defend themselves against generalizations in feminist debate, it pushes me off the edge. Its just as bad as what some men do to women. Just because I was born with a penis doesn't make me a chauvinist.

ok maybe this is just like a poor choice of words on your part or something because how else can this be construed in the context of the acts that we're discussing here. Like you are literally equivocating the words of some chick on the internet with like, all of recorded history re: women have been screwed over pretty loving badly. So like, maybe you're just really tone deaf or something but really you sound like those dudes who get mad at Jessie Jackson because he's mad about white people. So from one straight white dude to presumably another, don't be that guy. Really we don't need any help.

Shop towels live in the bag I purchased them in.

Paper towels go on a vertical holder

5 spices are only needed in life. Salt, pepper, lawrys season salt, crushed red pepper and some kind of garlic. No particular order.

Note to self. never cooking in your house. theres 30 or so spices I cook with. gently caress anything less.


My shop towels never live in the bag. they are purchased, come home, immediately torn from the bag and used to stuff the hemorrhaging leak.

Also.. I have a shitload of spices. When we moved... holy crap. I think we have one of those medium sized totes that's just spices.

The best part of moving back home? The spice shop in town. They do tons of specialty poo poo, plus the oil selection is bad rear end.

Oh and the whiskeys. I'm not a huge whiskey man, but god drat, there's some delicious poo poo for just pouring on the rocks and sitting on the porch and sip on.

One of my favorite recipes involves white fish of some sort, shrimp, lots of cheese, some dill, paprika, dried mustard, and some cayenne pepper. Plus a ridiculous amount of butter. Fortunately it gets spread over a whole lot of boiled rice, so it's more of a sauce than the actual meal and you don't instantly have a heart attack.
