i’m sure if we all hit the pavement and go country to country we’ll find someone willing to buy our exports. there’s plenty of money out there for people who are willing to work for it

they may have, but then it’s all erased with correction fluid

originally from the rural southern usa, i do not miss it

looks like it’s time for him to face the music

i miss when the cost of eggs was our biggest concern

i think the only real criteria is pork butt/shoulder cooked slowly and hand-pulled. i smoke mine for 14 hours or so with hickory and oak. bbq sauce is optional, and in my opinion it’s unnecessary. i’ve thrown leftovers into mac & cheese or quesadillas, but usually just have it on a bun.

is your roast pork a pork loin? those are pretty tasty too.

those poor unfortunate souls!

got in trouble once for swearing in school. the teacher made me tell my parents i’d have detention the next day. i didn’t tell my parents, didn’t know how i’d get myself out of this pickle, woke up the next day to a few inches of snow on the ground (in march, in north carolina) and school was cancelled. teacher never brought it up, and apart from remembering it vividly, never suffered any consequences.

oh, and another time when i had just gotten my license and someone almost clipped into my front bumper on the interstate so i jerked the wheel and ended up doing almost a 540 at 70mph in 3 lanes of traffic. i jerked the wheel left like a dumbass to avoid getting hit, started to spin, jerked the wheel back to the right (continuing the dumbass trend), did a rotation and a quarter. didn’t hit anything and landed facing the correct direction on the shoulder. what really surprised me was how little i actually had to jerk the wheel to make it lose traction.

if fancy toilets are your primary concern, i think japan is where you want to go

can my wife and i sell our residency for $5m each?

adjustable bed to sleep at an incline, or if i’m on vacation in a hotel i make a T-shape out of the pillows to incline as best i can from the waist up. if my sinuses feel clogged at all before bed i might take a claritin or something. exercise to get rid of some body fat also seems to have helped.

while they’re doing that, fort knox will be completely unguarded! it’ll be the perfect heist!

I don’t use Voyager, I use Connect. But it might be diagnostically relevant that for me there are no comments displayed.

Edit to add: Tried it again and got a message that it couldn’t load from the local instance, and it loaded from lemmy.ml instead. When that message showed, everything loaded fine.

E-sports should be hyphenated, or at the very least stylized as eSports.

To be fair, Tesla autopilot does a decent job killing people in civilian applications so this feels like a natural move.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweetening_(show_business) gives a quick rundown.

In television, sweetening refers to the use of a laugh track in addition to a live studio audience. The laugh track is used to “enhance” the laughter for television audiences, sometimes in cases where a joke or scene intended to be funny does not draw the expected response, and sometimes to avoid awkward sound edits when a scene is shortened or more than one take is used in editing.
