I’m not against Dylan Mulvaney or any other trans person, but what did Bud Light expect? Did they think that appealing to the lgbt community and its supporters would garner more sales? The fact of the matter is their beer is trash and the only people that seem to still drink it are people that clearly are either neutral on or actively against trans rights. This is a textbook case of not knowing your demographic.
American here: I don’t have any problems sleeping, nor does my wife typically, and I can’t say that I know of anyone that takes a sleep supplement every single night.
I have the opposite issue as I’m unmedicated for my ADHD, I can drink coffee at around noon and it’ll quiet down my brain enough that it can help me sleep
Pretty much what the title says. I’m likely going to graduate after a few extra summer classes, and I’m trying to figure out how graduation will work. Is it University-specific? Or is there a general rule of thumb? I have a baby on the way and I’d like to start my career asap just to help take care of him.
I’ll keep that in mind for the future, what’s odd is that it was only this particular one that did it, the rest of the batch was fine. For context: these were the last ones out of the bowl
I have one of those KitchenAid mixers, that’s what I used. I’m wondering if the butter didn’t melt after the fact while it was sitting in the bowl since these were the last ones that I made
I’d outlaw sauce bottles which make getting it all out harder, especially the ones which don’t have the opening at the bottom and make it impossible to put the bottle with the opening facing downwards.
Photons are a type of particle known as a boson, and are considered an elementary particle of the universe like quarks are. While bosons may have some properties that are similar to matter, they are not entirely identical.

I’ll tell you what let me put a gun to you and you family’s heads and tell you to do something, I bet you’ll do it. Your lack of empathy for people who are effectively slaves to their government is terrifying.
I’ll tell you what, why don’t you have someone point a gun at your family’s heads and have them tell you to do something. I’ll bet you that you do it. Your lack of empathy for people that are practically slaves to their government being flung into a war they don’t support is terrifying. I’m sorry that your homeland is being attacked, I truly am, but Putin is your enemy, not the guy hoping his compliance will keep his daughters from getting killed.
Okay, so how is this different from saying “I don’t care if they’re gay, as long as it’s in the privacy of their own homes”? It’s the same sentiment about what is (to some) also an immutable characteristic about their personality

I did 4 years on active duty and 6 months in Initial Entry Training (Basic and AIT). They’re going to yell at you, you’re going to be stressed, but unlike the movies and the TV shows, they aren’t there to break your spirit and make you a mindless drone. You’ll be yelled at for 2 reasons:
1)You fucked up, and if you fucked up in a firefight, people could die.
2)Someone else fucked up, and if they fucked ip in a firefight, people could die and you have to pay for it.
Either way, your Drill Sergeants aren’t there to do anything more than teach you to be a soldier. The people that come out of the military and act like they’re unfeeling assholes were that way when they went to basic, and it’s all a show I assure you.
Basic will be the most fun you’ll never want to have again, and honestly it’s a blast. Not once have I regretted joining and seeing what my life has become because of my time in.
All that being said, you can refuse to train and get chaptered out, but the fastest way out of Basic is through it. You’ve got to embrace the suck, grit your teeth, and then you’ll wake up 2 and a half months later and you’ll be wearing your dress uniform and going and getting a steak with your loved ones before heading off to AIT.
