This depends on the state and depends wildly on the circumstances. Driving in a reckless manner, e.g. while intoxicated, and killing someone is probably a felony everywhere.

OP have you ever been here? The biggest threats I face daily are gaggles of yuppie wine moms taking up the whole sidewalk with their double wide strollers.

A nice crusty loaf of bread.

Fresh bread is so good, doesn't stay good that long, and has a very long lead time.

Starfleet captains: "The Prime Directive is the highest and most important law, I would literally rather die and sacrifice my entire ship and crew than contaminate the natural cultural development of this civilization."

Also Starfleet captains: "Ok but this time it's different."

You're not misreading but you are thinking too much about the analogy.

Ketchup is GOATed. Very well-balanced flavor wise, it contains elements of sweet, salty, sour, and savory. This is what makes it so popular and why it pairs so well with so many foods.

Of course, there are varieties and brands that are made with substandard ingredients such as HFCS. But this is an exception and not the rule; I recommend something like Simply Heinz which is made with cane sugar and has a much less cloyingly sweet flavor. There are also fancier brands if you like, but honestly I think Heinz is the gold standard.

As a Chicagoan you also won't catch me putting it on a Chicago-style hot dog, since that has a delicate balance of flavors that is thrown off and overshadowed by the ketchup. But I'm not gonna throw a fit over anyone who does, and I will most definitely throw some ketchup and mustard on a dog that has not been dragged through the garden.

This is speculation but I'd bet there was some amount of less-than-voluntary aspect to the construction of at least some of the pyramids. As in "we'll pay you, but this is your job for the next 30 years while you're not harvesting."

I'd even take "Sombrero" over "Milky Way"

Hey all, new user to midwest.social as of today since lemm.ee is being shut down. After logging in to my new account I can't load my home pages (subscriptions) though I can view all, local, and individual communities. This is happening only for this username and across all lemmy clients, though I'm asking here since I'm not sure where else to ask if it's an issue with this server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
