I don’t use them myself but sort of get why people use dishwasher tablets, but laundry pods/tabs make zero sense to me. Not all loads are the same size.
For Dishwasher Tablets. This goes into way more depth than ya need but they skip a whole ass wash cycle - which is why there are 2 places for your soap in your dishwasher.
How so? I guess they are more expensive but I can afford like $2 per pack for the convenience of just throwing them in. Am I doing it wrong? Serious question
washing anything that got moldy (like cloth napkins from the kitchen that sat in the hamper) / funky - I use a solid tablet detergent (blue land plastic free) and a baking soda / vinegar. works great.
they react, they don’t equalize, and the results do a fine job of cleaning / removing smells. look, I’m not going to try to convince you your understanding of chemistry is incorrect, but try it before you knock it.
it reacts. I can’t explain the precise chemistry behind the reaction, but it breaks organic deposits / stains / crud and actually gets funky smells out of the wash. works better than any off the shelf product I’ve tried.
not sure on the precise chemistry involved in the reaction, but it works like a charm for getting stains and smells out of laundry, and takes smells out of counters etc. w/o using harsh chemicals. you should give it a try.
Eh, I was, and I am undisturbed. I honestly find it incredibly hard to believe that any 40+ year old netizen could find any meme format actually disturbing.
That is true, I likely would. But I would know that internet meme formats are cross-platform and freedom of expression dominates the internet as a whole over other priorities. So, I wouldn’t be able to do anything about it, and it wouldn’t be a great idea to try.
I’ve honestly never met more oppressive and less compassionate people than the ones here after I wrote a single comment that showed how brittle all you little babies are when confronted with the complexities of this planet.
Easier to enjoy them when people aren’t trying to shut others down by pretending to get “offended” so easily, and tossing around casual insults when challenged.
For most of us who aren’t American, this format is funny.
More people died per day from COVID than this attack. More people have died from gun violence since this attack. America has a ton of problems, stop holding onto this attack so tightly for some reason.
Yeah because before then, Americans were still very isolated. The only “bad stuff” going on was across an ocean one way, or an ocean the other way. Suddenly most Americans actually realized they live in a big world that holds more than just America.
No you don’t. You want to tell yourself, but you get mad at what the media conglomerate tells you to get mad about. You don’t give a fuck that somebody else fucks up your things until it becomes chosen to be popular political rage target then you rage at it
You have said this at least three times. Did you lose your parents on 9/11 or are you just speaking on behalf of others?
And if you lost your parents on 9/11, I would think you would appreciate people making fun of Bush not doing shit about it for minutes when he should have been out of that room and acting immediately.
Tell me - if a terror attack murdering 3,000 innocent people justifies the murder of 45,000 innocent people, how many terror attacks does the murder of 45,000 innocent people justify?
Your logic is caveman level stupid. Continuously murdering each other’s civilians in the name of payback or consequences will never end.
It would have mean that you were following the thread.
My claim: The Bush meme template is tasteless.
That’s all I’ve been suggesting.
Reason: living relatives of the thousands of victims find it painful.
Evidence: personal experience
That’s it.
But just to suggest that a meme template that might be offensive to others
Imagine an image of a man raping a woman and he had a joyful smile on his face. The tagline: When I get my final in at 11:59pm and the assignment closes at midnight
Pretty sure some people would find that offensive?
Please name the Afghani people who attacked the U.S. on 9/11. Unless you think those consequences should be killing people who had absolutely nothing to do with it. 15 of the 19 9/11 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia. Shouldn’t the consequences have involved Saudi Arabia? As someone who was orphaned by Saudis on 9/11, shouldn’t you be upset that we went to war with Afghanistan and not Saudi Arabia?
The Saudiee surely funded Binladen if we are to believe any of the official story.
And it’s regrettable that Bush allowed them to get off the hook.
And later some Saudi prince murdered Jamal Khashoggi.
All shit from beginning to end.
I’m bored as fuck of this conversation.
Use the template or not.
I’m not going to because it’s distasteful to the relatives of the Americans murdered in the attack. You won’t see me using any templates of smart bombs murdering innocent people in Afghanistan or the Middle East because that too would be tasteless.
I’m glad I got under all these little babies skin though. I’m one person with 300 downvotes for a single comment.
What I learned from this is the Lemmy is filled with a bunch brittle fucking crybabies.
Maybe because you started out as hostile to everyone long before you said that you lost your parents on 9/11, so you had already spent all of your goodwill.
It’s hard to have sympathy for someone who has been rude to everyone who talks to them.
I was an adult on 9/11. I am an American. I watched the second plane hit live on TV.
Bush being told that it happened and sitting there like the moron he is for a long time before excusing himself is not part of the tragedy. It is absolutely something to be mocked. And this is funny.
I was orphaned on that day. It’s not funny for me. But I think it’s okay it’s funny to you. But I think if our positions were reversed you wouldn’t find it quite so funny.
Did you read what I wrote? Because I don’t think you did. The only reason I can think of that you would find mocking George W. Bush on 9/11 offensive is if you voted for him. And if you did, I think we can disregard what you have to say.
I hated him with a passion every single day throughout his entire tenure. Hanging Chad’s?? I opposed the opportunistic invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq so hard I was literally photographed by newspapers.
Smug, self-righteous, and wrong in every way — you have a litmus test for humanity that smells like the mutual admiration society.
I have literally been pepper sprayed my cops at protests against fascism since then.
How dare you.
Honestly, stranger in the internet, you have zero fucking idea.
I’m pretty sure George W. Bush is, in fact, a person. And yes, it was an iconic moment. An iconic moment of George W. Bush acting like an idiot and an asshole. Why you think he deserves to be protected from being mocked I don’t know.
Please explain what is offensive about mocking George W. Bush on 9/11. Why does that hurt you? All you can say is 9/11 made you an orphan. That sucks, but it doesn’t explain why you find mocking George W. Bush on 9/11 when he did something extremely stupid and unhelpful is offensive to you. What he did (or rather didn’t do) is the thing that should be offensive to you.
Telling me what my “move” should have been did not answer my question.
I think the reason you didn’t answer the question is that you can’t support your claim, and thus can’t support the reason you’ve been so indignant and rude to everyone.
If you have sensitives, you should work through them on your own or in counseling. Maybe you’re not ready to view memes/jokes like this one, it’s okay to keep scrolling without sharing your personal trauma. I appreciate your perspective but it is very unique.
If the majority of people would react a certain way, that’s the social norm. Your personal reaction to seeing Bush’s face on 9/11, after 22 years, is just not the norm, nor anyone else’s responsibility. This is not a graphic image, and it was not addressed to you specifically.
Norms aren’t right/wrong. You are on lemmy viewing this image, that’s your population. And that’s what you should be considering when offering your perspective.
You’re being so heavily downvoted because people here don’t agree with you. Not that anyone is right/wrong.
