    My parents are bigots but I can at least curb their racism because they do seem to actually understand that the welfare system failing is due to austerity budgeting rather than those evil immigrants. I haven't been able to get them to stop spouting transphobia though, only thing that works is telling them to shut the fuck up about it

    This is just a rehash of his old "Lenin would support voting for Biden", where he cherry picks a quote or two and runs with it.

    There is something so fucking tryhard in the language this post uses. Like trying to sound super radical and cool, so they try to be edgy with "doming" and other shit, but it essentially boils down to the weakest fucking "vote blue no matter who" shit, where they can't even do the mildest crit of their own side

    I mean actual proper research, not CIA propaganda. I want to learn what truly was censored, both when it comes to politics and culture like books or film, and actual material reasons why. Preferably stuff that destroys the typical Western bullshit about no freeze peach lol, I want to put it against Western censhorship and propaganda.

    Yeah, agreed. I know fuck all about guns but well-implemented iron sights can be a blast, it just feels nice. Same with recoil on a more punchy weapon, or good sounds for the guns. Sure you could strip these "unnecessary" features, and keep the mechanics of how the bullets fly the same, but it is cooler with them

    you make the dough out of potatoes. I used 1.5kg of raw potatoes, finely grated them in a mixer, then pressed out all the water (there was a shitload of it). I added about 0.7kg of cooked (and mashed) potatoes, then a lot of potato starch, making it into a potato dough. The. just added filling, in this case chantarelles cooked with onions and spices.

    If you save the water from the raw potatoes and let it set, you can use some starch that gathers in the bottom of the bowl, in which case you need less of powdered starch

    holy shit you just reminded me of that completely ludicrous HL2 mod. It was called something like "cinematic mod" and the guy who made it upped the texture resolution (it looked pretty bad), fiddled with lighting (also in a bad way), remade some levels (aaand we're three in the hole for bad) then spent the rest of his effort replacing all female characters' models with ones that have huge boobs and skimpy outfits, it was hilarious.

    And apparently some people dug into the files and the Alyx model even had a fully modeled cervix for whatever reason

    I was never specifically told to be afraid of tetanus either, but that may be because all kids got mandatory tetanus vaccines where I grew up. I still have a faded scar on my arm - I think it was the three vaccines in one shot thing, nowadays it doesn't leave a scar afaik, but back then you got a star-shaped mark and a minor swelling for a few weeks. And when pushing around other kids, somebody would always go "not in the vaccine!" when they caught a stray, painful punch in that part of the arm.

    I only renewed it in my mid-20s after stepping straight onto a long rusty nail. I also decided to get some other vaccines filled in back then, like TBE.

    edit: I actually looked it up and the scar was from a tubercolosis vaccine, tetanus et al didn't leave any marks

    not to spoil any fun, but a) viagra doesn't actually make you horny, only helps if you already would normally get aroused without ED (tho tbf Biden seems all horny for genocide) and b) he might already be getting something viagra-adjacent in his drug cocktails as that can help with some other cardiovascular issues

    I read up recently bc I found out that a medicine the vet prescribed for one of our rats, Sildenafil, is just a different brand (or generic?) viagra and even the little instruction paper in the box described it as primarily a drug for combatting ED. In the case of the rat it was bc the little guy's lungs were failing due to an infection and any little boost could help

    obviously I needed to then try it out too, but honestly there were no interesting effects
