I made my own starter with the tartine method and used that for a few years. Then I ordered some “200 year old” starter on Etsy. I’m not 100% sold on it’s age, but it’s way funkier and more flavorful than my starter ever was. I might suggest buying some like that if you’re just trying to dip your toes in. Good luck!

Why couldn’t you say what the medical communities issue is in the post rather than leaving some cliff hanger and making me click into the article?

Medical communities “issue”:

But the medical community has taken issue with how the bill proposes to make the change — specifically, that it mandates all states adopt permanent daylight saving time rather than sticking to standard time

Doctors and scientists argue that standard time is actually better for our health. Our internal clock is better aligned with getting light in the morning, which, in turn, sets us up for better sleep cycles.

Ah, the wonderful prevailing argument sweeping the internet the last few years: “that looks like something else, so it must be that. Let’s disregard sources and science. Everything must be what it looks like.”

Here’s a source explaining what happened since I guess no one taught you keyboard ninjas how to do actual research.

Canon Richard Sewell, the dean of St George's College in Jerusalem, told the BBC that about 1,000 displaced people were sheltering in the courtyard when it was hit, and about 600 patients and staff were inside the building.

There was, but then it got blown up by a rocket. I suggest the opposite: we all take more mushrooms.

Who is the “they” you’re referring too? From the title I guess all people are too heated up over climate change for you? (See what I did there ;) I am absolutely a climate activist but I for sure have a chill mode. I’m not violent and all I do is try to educate my friends and family. If we don’t address climate change we will destroy the world that’s a fact, so to me it is THEE most important issue. (FYI- thee actually means you, it’s not a stronger form of the like you’re using it).

Your comment really doesn’t paint an accurate picture. I don’t thin op is right, but I don’t think you’re totally correct either. The life expectancy in Russia increased after the Bolshevik revolution because it had been decimated by disease, and a civil war for the years before that. The increase in life expectancy had nothing to do with communists coming into power. It certainly had nothing to do with industrialization that didn’t really get going in Russia until 1930. It had everything to do with the end of the civil war and global medicine advancing.

“Dire food shortages, hunger and famine were further exacerbated by the outbreak of several epidemics. Between 1918 to 1922 there were 2.5 million deaths as a result of the typhus epidemic...

Population figures fell by 35 million and were estimated at 139 million in 1921, a direct result of the war, famine and epidemic diseases.”

I mean yeah, but at least they’re not sucking peoples blood.

Edit: my comment was meant to be a joke about iamascaryvampire’s username. Sorry if people don’t get it ☹️

If you think wwIII is going to start because the ECOWAS bloc is entering Niger I have good news for you- it’s not. I’m not sure I follow why multiple military conflicts prove wwIII is coming. The WWs were not an amalgamation of multiple small conflicts. They were larger theaters of war all interconnected, not disjointed like the Ukraine war, Yemeni conflict, and Niger coup are. You’re not really fear mongering, but your fears for the start of wwIII to be born out of any of the wars right now aside from the Ukraine one doesn’t make a lot of sense.
