Hanging on the wall like that, in a thumbnail, I thought it was a ketubah for a second. (Tbf this is more a sign I need more caffeine, I don't think I've seen a ketubah with such a large star of David on it before)

No way that thing has gotten me into more places than it's gotten me kicked out

Egregious comes from Latin meaning one with the flock and was used that way until the French started collectively using it sarcastically and the new meaning stuck.

Yeah but I don't want to play a long form rpg on mobile. If I get it on mobile, does that mean I get it on PC too?

Free on... mobile? Not PC? Kinda Bizarre

There's a product called Ener-G Egg Replacer and I use it to great success for eggs in dough. It won't make a dough "eggy" like is needed for challah or egg bagels, but it'll work as a binder in other baking recipes, as far as I can tell, perfectly. I've never had anyone ask "did you do something different here?" when tasting my baked goods, even if they've had my egged versions previously.

I used to use it just for making food for my vegan pals but now I've just been using it whenever eggs are called for.

They're a plague on gardens. It might be a metaphorical relic of an age before modern pesticides.

Edit: Sorry, I know this isn't funny, but I've also wondered about this odd phenomenon, too, and this just occurred to me.

It ain't changing my opinion, but, yes, please mail me money.

Played the demo and it seems fun, but not full price fun. Reviews seem to echo that. I'll probably wait a year til it goes on sale.

Shame, though, I was thinking of picking it up as I'm just about to finish Infinite Wealth, which was incredible, just like the previous entry.

I'm not so sure. I think there are conservatives who truly believe themselves to be intolerant of fascists and bigots but, first and foremost, they are not representative of conservatives as a whole and therefore may not be best suited to represent and moderate a community of conservatives, and secondly, I'm reminded of the German saying about Nazis at the table. If there is a table of ten people and a Nazi sits down with them and no one leaves, there are 11 Nazis at the table.

I'll admit that this is a fairly American-centric view of conservatives and while it may be as you say, similar in other parts of the world, I honestly don't know enough to agree with any certainty.

I spoke about this in another thread, but it seems like a very delicate balancing act to find the right moderator for that kind of community. To be a conservative is to be tolerant of fascists and Neo-Nazis to some degree. In the current political climate, it is inevitable that any right-leaning community will have elements of these abhorrent ideologies. I don't think fascists and Neo-Nazis should be tolerated to exist in any space. No community as a whole is made safer by their presence, quite the opposite. So any moderator of a conservative community either must not be a conservative themselves or be one of the seemingly minority of conservatives that utterly disavow nationalists and bigotry, but this would put them in a position of poorly representing the community they moderate.

It's a tricky situation. And I'm not sure if there's a solution that both makes sense and permits a conservative community to exist.

My boyfriend's goyishe family won't appreciate how good it is nor what a tzimmes it is to make the dang thing, but it'll pair nicely with some brie.

The audible report of your pee smashing into the free-floating thin stainless steel is desirable in the way that it informs others you are sink pissing. The ceramic bowl preference shown in this community is a sign of cowardice and shame in one's true self.

It has the added benefit of scaring away predators and attracting sexual partners.

Piss proud. Piss loud.

I got an idea to some candy coated metals and I'm looking to see if I can find a good recommendation on a super fine black gloss primer in a rattle can.

I got this can of Behr Premium from Home Depot, but I think the paint is a tad thick and I was hoping for a glossier finish.

Any y'all got any recommendations? I was also considering trying an automotive primer because I figured they'd be glossier.
