I need that for my ~~weed~~ vitamin d deficiency, and my cats hogs it.

I do, and I'm learning from this thread that that may be my solution.

Now to learn about what makes a plate oven-safe, though I'm sure it's fine at the lowest temperature.

In a restaurant, they may just grab a plate that has just come out of the dishwasher since industrial dishwashers are really fucking hot.

I guess part of me knew this was the real reason the plates were hot and not because the diner warmed them up for me.

but that's so much woooork though! for slightly-warmed plates! i gotta wait for it to heat up just to put a plate in there? my time is too valuable for such lengths!

...bah, this is probably the right answer.

My kitchen does not have enough room to accommodate something of that magnitude. Phooey.

You will have to heavily babysit the bot teammates it gives you if you opt for that route.

What a bunch of fucking vulnerable idiots. No big deal, just nuclear arms in the hands of the types who don’t know how to turn on their computers.

Yeah this was my main problem with it was it was just very surface-level. Like I'm glad it's being brought to the table for discussion for mainstream audiences, but it felt a bit glossed over like something I'd heard from an NPR story on video games; "did you know about this thing called incel culture? it's all the rage with the youths."

I don't know what the solution is or how I want to see it conveyed, but I recall Polytechnique doing a better job at instilling horror in me from incel culture than Adolescence, albeit it was more subtle, and that was from 2009.

I know it's a very privileged thing to say, but I guiltily admit I have always wanted to see a tornado in person after seeing Twister in the 90s. Looks like I might get my wish. I hope its destruction is minimal 🤞

I'm always in the mood for apocalyptic novels. I was somewhat disappointed with the soon-to-be-adapted Aurora.

I remember seeing it originally on the DVD for Aliens, which was loaded with a bunch of other equally-impressive behind-the-scenes stuff. Such crude beginnings that Queen had, and how far she got with tubs and tubs of, um, Vaseline.
