I’m waiting for an update on the council’s decision.

I recently switched from 1 January 1900 to 1 January 2000. It feels good to be young again.

Sure, although those are still different things, and people won’t receive a diagnosis just because they’re more sensitive to matters of justice.

I completely agree with you that the stigma around psychological disorders (“disorder bad”) isn’t justified. Especially people with conditions like autism or ADHD often just experience the world differently and in ways that would sometimes be beneficial if everyone saw it that way.

The term “disorder” does a poor job at conveying that these conditions often result from peoples’ inability to function in “normal” society, which is not caused by them being “bad” but rather by society making it difficult for them to function as well as they could.

What disorder are you referring to? I tried to look this up, and justice sensitivity just seems to be a personality characteristic. There are also lots of websites talking about its link to ADHD and autism, but AFAIK it’s not a symptom of either.

Yeah, I bet he’s got Trump’s two brain cells both constantly firing at the same time. Complete overload.

Little known fact, but the “M” in "Ken "M is for “meme”.

I think Musk overestimates his popularity among the European supporters of far right parties. Recently came back from the holidays in rural east Germany, where lots of people vote that way, and people abhor him over there.

Just so you know, the cartoonist (Wikipedia) is a woman.

Anything less than NUKED isn’t worth my time

And the oversized suit and tie.

Isn’t that illegal? What kind of license is uBO under?

Condoning violence against things while condemning violence against people is really not such a big contradiction, especially when said thing is used to hurt people.

Edit: Then again, a guy wanting other people to get shot probably doesn’t argue in good faith anyway.

FWIW, I made a nice Dal last weekend with some of the tips in this thread. Swapped out the onions for fennel and leek, added other vegetables (carrots, parsnip, bell pepper), garlic oil and asafoetida for taste. Turned out great and was quite easy on the stomach.

Usenet, email, and some other internet services have been around since the 70s/80s. Nowadays the internet is often taken to be synonymous with the world wide web, but there’s plenty of stuff that was available much earlier.

Can we declare this asshat a “persona non grata” already? Block X and let him visit his Gigafactory via Zoom until he apologizes.

If my friend had a habit of jumping on the kitchen counter and chasing after my ankles, then yes, I would train them to stop that.

Nah, he’s just flexing.

I just checked a FODMAP website for a garlic oil recipe that is now sitting on the stove. Onion is next.

Thanks, I didn’t know there were powders that are FODMAP free, although I’m not sure if this is the cause of her sensitivity. I’ll see if I can find them where I live.

Regarding the consistency. I’m mainly thinking of heavier/saucy dishes like goulash or some Indian/Pakistani dishes, where onions are cooked for a longish time. They add a creamy texture to the sauce that I find difficult to recreate.

Asafoetida is really nice, yeah. I would put it more in the onion/leek department in terms of taste, but it does create that pretty effectively.
