Does anyone else just get the urge to maim themselves sometimes?

Sometimes I think "I should lose an eye" or "I should chop off my thumbs" and I don't understand why.

By the time the bottom of the crust is golden brown and crispy, the cheese would be burnt if you put it in all at once. Alternatively, you end up with a soggy crust but perfect cheese.

So instead you crisp up the bottom first, and then get the cheese and toppings melted.

Cardio. It's the only thing that can reset my brain when its overwhelmed.

After that, I have to shower. When that's done, my appetite is stimulated enough to force me to cook. Eat with whatever's on TV and it's already 7:30. Do what I want until bed since I'm relaxed from the shower, cardio, and dinner.

At the time, it was an actual good cartoon kid's cartoon at a time when animation nerds had sparse pickings. The show was designed with a primary audience of young girls but they also added elements to appeal to parents. As a phenomenon, it's similar to Bluey.

Plus, it was made by the same people who did Foster's Home and Power Puff Girls, of course it's a good show.

Here's some tips I have as a lifelong suffer of bad acne.

  1. You have to scrub your face with the cleaner. Think of it like washing the dishes, you can't just pour soup on a dirty dish and rinse it off. You gotta put some elbow grease into it. Don't irritate the skin of course, but if your pores don't look cleaner after a wash then you're probably not scrubbing enough.

  2. Stop touching your face. Wash your hands more too.

  3. Change the pillowcase / bed sheets twice a week, you might have to do it more or less but change the darn pillowcase.

Seconding cardio. You lose weight by cutting calories but you maintain it with exercise. Jogging for an hour burns almost 600 calories depending on your weight. That's an entire extra meal's worth of calories.

I was here since the first day, the infighting and drama was way worse after the name change.

It's only really in the past year or so that they've calmed down tbh.

Are there any guides to using grindr safely?

I've heard some nasty shit about the distance based stuff being used to track people and I'd prefer to not be murdered.

Lots of younger queer groups have a discord. You can get to know people before meeting them in person. Also helps filters out groups filled with gay but shitty people.

Pop in and see if you vibe. Low risk, and they'll probably have information on meetups.

I have no idea where you're getting this from. Saying someone is a Lumpenprole isn't a moral judgement, just an economic one. Someone who grows rice and the bandits that steal it have different relations to the means of production. They are not just proles who break the law.

it's ridiculous to try to carry that notion forward to the age of cell phones and heavily armed maoist prostitutes

Engels was largely revolutionary but he was also bourgeoisie, that does not mean that the bourgeoisie as a class are revolutionary. Also, many ML theorists argue that Lumpenproles do have revolutionary potential while not denying they exist as a class.

Life Pro Tip: If you spill water in a way that make it look like you pissed yourself, simply pour more water on your pants so it looks like your entire pants are wet.

Still embarrassing but less so.

Popcorn is a good one. Air popper + lightly drizzled olive oil + small sprinkle of flavacol is pretty darn good.
