Enjoyed this :D

I’m interested in it regardless of the length of an article, right?

For you, maybe, but not for me. I literally didn’t read your whole comment that I’m replying to right now because it was too long.

My attention is conditional.

Immediate family (spouses especially) are ALWAYS the primary suspect until they can be ruled out

Chicken chicken chicken. Grill up tons of it. You can add things like a red sauce (go easy on the tomatoes because of the natural sugars), pesto, Alfredo sauce, Italian dressing, etc…

Grilled/baked chicken will likely be a main protein.

I also really love pot roast (there are great keto recipes out there that taste phenomenal). Grilling a steak is always a delightful treat.

Make sure you eat plenty of greens with each meal and take a multivitamin to keep your body from being deficient.

Sugar-free Gatorade is really helpful for fighting the “low carb flu” in the early days of switching to ketosis (as it’s the low electrolytes that make you feel those flu symptoms).

Best of luck! Not everyone can do keto, so I hope it works for you (my SO ended up getting a rash on their back that scarred because of the acetone produced by their body from migrating over to ketosis; never happened to me, though).

Lived In Atlanta for a time and the annual pass was only 2x the price of a 1-day admission and we went almost every weekend. One of the few things I remember fondly about ATL

Already do remote play through my phone with a backbone, so this would just give me a bigger screen, I guess

Of course I know him: he’s me!

Maybe it’s just me, but those don’t seem like huge changes… I’m surprised peeps are pissed about it.

Maybe they’re more upset about the principle of the changes (prudence because of ESRB)…?

It’s like gamers being mad if they reduced Tifa’s cup size in a remake of FF7. Is that really a change worth being upset about? I just don’t understand the perspective, I guess.

Dang, you are patient!

What’s all this hubbub in the YouTube comments about censorship?

I haven’t played Balder’s Gate 3 yet, so I’d say I’m patient.

I actually did some googling and there are some okay-ish articles debating this topic. All of them said “it depends”, which isn’t really helpful.

It got me thinking, though… how much savings would you need to make it worth it to you? ($20 savings? $100 savings? $500 savings?)

The oil heater is going to cost ~$50 to purchase if you don’t already have one. That means you’ll at least need to save $50 just to break even. So over the winter, your electric bill will need to drop by $50 plus whatever the dollar amount you need in order for it to be “worth the trouble” for you.

If an extra $50 over the winter in savings ($100 total) is worth it to you, I think you have a high chance of an oil room heater getting you that savings over your central heating. I’m doubtful how much more you’d be able to save beyond that. (I didn’t do the math on it, but based on the articles I read, the oil heater is going to be cheaper in general.)

Another thing to consider: The oil heater is likely to be a lot more convenient to use than the central air option and having to close all the other vents in your house though.

You are not a buzzkill, I think. This skit had a couple of things going for it:

1. Halloween can always use more “mascots” and this is one.
2. I admit that I originally didn’t like this skit, but my brother-in-law did, and I like him, so after watching it I always think of him until eventually it became something I genuinely liked.
3. I quote lines from this skit to my SO all the time, so it’s become kind of embedded into my life.
4. SNL during this time wasn’t very funny to me. I think that since SNL sucked during this time, even moderately funny skits ended up exploding in popularity just because they weren’t the usual onslaught of comedians stumbling over their lines and ruining jokes. Weekend Update was pretty funny, though.

So in short, my friend, it’s not really funny. It was a moment, and you may have missed it. But let me say this, I think you’re cool for kicking off Spooky season…

… Almost as cool as DaViD ESS pUmKiNs!

I was really hoping this would say “why does Facebook and Instagram provide a web interface when their crappy platforms rarely show content unless you’re using their app”.

At this point it’s purely a performance that they even offer a web interface to their platform.

Same goes for Twitter.

Holy crap that was awesome

It is definitely scary. I want to remind you that you were once a decently happy person and that therapy (both individual and couples therapy) is likely one of the few options you have to move back in that direction.

It’s worth it (speaking from experience). That weight on your shoulders is just waiting to come off, but you likely need a bit of help to get things started.

This is probably the most straightforward explanation. In many-to-many, I usually have a helper table standing in between which holds the foreign keys

Sucks bro. You’re in good company tho
