Bird in a Blender posted:There are some moves in the work to freeze a lot of Russia’s central banks assets that they have in foreign currency. Essentially most of this is not held in physical money, but it’s all digital, so you can freeze them out of changing dollars to rubles and vice versa. All militaries aren't the US military and just roll over people, OP.

BlindSite posted:Eh, not having a 24 hour news cycle and 2 or 3 social media apps sending alerts for poo poo every five minutes and not having group chats where theres no escape from news or things that have people concerned probably do wonders for your anxiety. Also getting plenty of vitamin D and consuming all locally grown produce and meat you'd hunted or raised and having no intake of processed food... I can definitely see a world where even if your concern is a bandit's sword in your guts or being pressed into a vanguard with a coat of ring mail and a fire sharpened spear to face a cavalry unit your day to day isn't so bad. Literally all food is processed. I think you mean to say industrial processed foods.

This isn't life changing like the One True Chili recipe that ToasterBeef (?) shared, but here is my fantastic spag sauce. I don't like runny sauces, this is pretty thicc. Ingredients: 1.5 lb ground beef 1 lb hot breakfast sausage 2 cloves garlic 1 28oz can whole tomatoes 1 12 oz can tomato paste 2 tbs dried parley 2 tbs dried basil 0.5 tsp salt Prep: In large skillet, combine beef, sausage, & garlic. Cook over med-high until browned. Drain about half the fat. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix. Simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Leperflesh posted:This is a lot of meat in proportion to the tomato. Quite a meaty sauce. I'm also raising my eyebrows suspiciously at "breakfast sausage." Try your recipe with some good sweet italian sausage, maybe? Thanks for making recommendations on how to improve my sauce recipe without ever having tried it. Next, please post some more long book reviews about books you've never read.

Pain of Mind posted:I always wonder where people who just vanish from here go... do they... just not browse the internet? I don't have anyone specific in mind, but every now and then I find a few year old thread and in it is someone who posts 10 times a day and then they just stop overnight. Did they die in a car crash? Are there shadow bans that are not reported? What happened? I just assume they started defending the Saudi government on like Facebook or another platform instead of SA.

Freaquency posted:Baltimore is a cool town despite being one of the go-to examples fascists and racists use to denigrate cities. There are parts of it that are rough but they’re no tougher than some of the dying rural towns I grew up in in NC. I lived there for seven-ish years and never had any problems, but if you join a neighborhood FB group they’ll act like there are roving gang death squads rolling into Fed Hill or Otterbein every night and I never could figure out the disconnect between my experience and theirs (I actually did and it’s racism). Baltimore is a cool town, but if you take a wrong turn and go two blocks you're in trash can fire in the middle of the street neighborhoods. Harbor/Camden yards is a nice touristy area, but go a few blocks to the casino and it's a lot more sketchy. Still far, far better than Pittsburgh, which SA loves to defend for unknown reasons.

Leperflesh posted:This is Northern Ireland, the deeply protestant sub-nation of the UK with more progressive women's rights than America; but a Sinn Fein victory signals a potential move toward reunification, an idea that has been at the center of a frequently bloody conflict you're probably aware of.

Thaddius the Large posted:This rules, women in soccer are insanely, like unbelievably underpaid, IIRC currently players in the NWSL (the league that feeds into the USWNT) earn like $35k a year as professional athletes, hopefully this also gives their players some weight to getting that bumped up to anything above literal poverty level pay LeeMajors posted:Women are also way loving tougher and the USWNT wins way loving more. Women get paid more than men on the national team (and it's been that way for a long time). It's league pay that's the issue. I don't think this agreement actually fixes that.

LeeMajors posted:I’m not an expert but wasn’t the pay structure intentionally underpaying them and they made more with endorsements because they *gasp* actually won soccer matches? The women's club soccer league in the US keeps folding/going bankrupt/etc so women got more base salary/healthcare/etc from the national team so they have a stable source of income. A few years ago in my co-ed league, we played against teams that had women's national league players on it. They had joined the league to keep playing because there literally wasn't a women's club league at that time. For the national team, the men got bigger bonuses because they get their salary/benefits from their club. The endorsement dollars were based on the amount of money each brought in and men's soccer brings in a ton more money. The best thing for women's soccer would be a stable club league that pays decently, imo.

bobjr posted:I've been playing a co-ed soccer league, and one ref will not call a penalty on a woman player no matter what, despite the skill level between gender not being a huge difference at this level. I found the team that was very willing to take advantage of this tonight, and I think I need to spend the weekend icing my legs. This is all refs in every coed league, OP. Sometimes you get the refs who will also whistle a foul if you steal the ball from a woman.

3 DONG HORSE posted:*Squints in Japanese* Yup, still says what I think it says after reading this three times. Aaaaaaarrrrrggggg posted:How the hell do you kill a Subaru? They're rock solid until their head gaskets kill themselves at 100k. Current Subarus aren't the same as old Subarus. After they finally had to kill the EJ engines because they couldn't figure out how to get it to meet emissions anymore they became a lot more prone to issues (as you referenced with the head gaskets). The running joke is that Subaru is transitioning late to EVs because they haven't figured out how to get the head gaskets to fail yet.

Android Apocalypse posted:Aw Toyota doesn't have the tax credits anymore? I was kinda eyeing the RAV4 Prime to replace my 2002 Highlander. If you buy a Toyota before October you still get the full credit. They just hit the 200,000th vehicle so they start unwinding the credit over the course of a year starting the next quarter (10/2022 thru 9/2023). No credit starting in October 2023. EVs, like almost all cars, are really hard to get right now. The Bolt is probably the best deal even though it no longer qualifies for the federal tax credit. The Leaf is technically cheaper after factoring in the tax credit, but it doesn't have active battery management so the batteries tend to have issues more than other EVs.

CannonFodder posted:I think Toyota still has the credit because they were mainly selling regular hybrids and not Plug-in hybrids which would count towards the tax credit. I could be wrong, those RAV4 Primes sold really well. Nissan still has the tax credit. Regular hybrids don't count. Plug in hybrids have a tax credit and count towards the 200k vehicles before the tax credit goes away. One day, someone will fact check themselves before posting. But that day is not today.

I was 33 when we bought our kid. That's the current average age of a male with a college education to have their first kid. I wouldn't wait past the 30s to have a kid, they are a lot of energy. Rich dudes having kids in their 60s & 70s with younger wives are gross.
