OP described their beliefs and is looking for a name for it, not the other way around.

That’s how they keep you from climbing the ranks. You need to take a loss for a while before things can actually get better, and you never know if it’ll be possible for you to get over that hump.

But… I like the solitude of night time. :(

It seems very inefficient to have them transcribe audio when they could just add timestamps to the script.

I think the part that stinks is all the dead skin sticking to the hair and all the skin oils and bacteria accumulating on that mass.

You can do the protein powder first. Just make sure that when you pour in the water, it stays on top of the protein and doesn’t seep through to the bottom. Then flip the bottle over, shake it (without flipping) until all the powder unsticks from the bottom, then proceed to shake normally.

Alternatively, fill the bottle with about an inch of water, add the powder, then fill the rest of the way with water and shake normally.

The problem with water first is that you can’t stick the scoop into the bottle and protein powder flies off everywhere.

Maybe chickpeas are expensive where you live, or maybe you miscalculated. Either way, take a look at my numbers for comparison.

We can get a 3.63kg bag of chickpeas here for $7.49 (CAD). Assuming you fulfill all your Calorie and protein needs from chickpeas alone (2500 Calories and 150g protein per day), it comes out to about $600/year. That’s $1.64/day. In order to be $10/day, you’d have to pay 6x as much for your chickpeas, so that same 3.63kg bag would have to cost $45.50.

More variety in your diet is likely to always be superior to less. That goes for both kids and adults. The trouble with younger kids is that deficiencies can impact their development and have more severe long term consequences, and they’re also less capable of seeking out foods to fill that gap.

I suspect a big part of it is that he actually acknowledged that people are having problems, while Hilary decided to go “America is already great” as if their problems aren’t real.

Having come from the world of C++, this was a huge step up.

Interesting that you list vice versa. What do you typically use instead?

This one amuses me. It looks all fancy in writing. But if someone says “milk toast” and you don’t know what it means, they just sound like an idiot.

That’s the fun thing about food (and wine especially). You don’t need to have the ingredient present for it to taste like that ingredient. I made chocolate chip cookies once that tasted like bananas, and I most definitely didn’t add bananas to them.

I’ve never seen anyone use “demure” in a serious context. It seems to always be used to convey a mocking tone.

Relevant XKCD

In theory, the value they create is in handling all the home maintenance. Of course, many of them don’t do their jobs in practice.

I mean, this is how businesses work in general. If you don’t buy their products/services, then they wouldn’t be able to continue providing them.

I understand that we’re trying to draw attention to exploitative landlords, but if anyone can afford to keep their property regardless of whether or not you pay rent, it’s the exploitative ones.

Better for the company doesn’t necessarily mean it’s worse for you.

But where does the extra money and infrastructure come from to provide everything they need?

What is money in the first place? It represents labour and resources. So when a new person shows up, they themselves provide the money in the form of their labour. They are the money.

If you replace the cars first, such that no one’s daily schedules are significantly altered,

Is that going to happen if you replace cars with another vehicle that still requires car infrastructure?
