Lurking American here. Curious who you think will win in your gut? I understand we won’t really know until results are counted. A couple of stories covered by American media (one definitely liberal leaning) I’ve read and listened to seems to think because of the odiousness of our president, liberals may take it? Do you think that’s likely?
We went Bosch, I think some 800 series or something. It’s nice, it’s got that hidden top rack for the weird shaped utensils and whatnot. Also nerded out and watched instructional videos and they were saying it’s best to just scrape food off and load. Don’t pre-rinse, you’re basically doing the job twice if you pre-wash. We had a Whirlpool before which the appliance sales guy said any Whirlpool is like entry-level. Once you go up a level they brand them as KitchenAid cause I guess those two companies merged.
When you start to level up in life, invest in a mid-tier or above dishwasher. Man that thing has changed my life. We had a dishwasher but it started leaking and caused water damage on the floor. That was a whole headache. Went to buy a new one once the floor was fixed, turns out I had a very basic, entry level dishwasher. It wasn’t terrible (until it leaked) but upgrading to a better one, oooh baby, this thing cleans and dries like a dream! Ah such a midlife thrill acquiring an effective dishwasher.
Oh thank fuck he’s alive. I kept reading everyone assuming he was dead and started to believe it. Now what happens…?
I’m very anti-gun for myself and live in an area where it’s fairly rare or at the very least open carry is not a thing cause it’s weird to see guns in every day life. I have shot a pistol at a shooting range and I remember it being way more powerful than expected. I actually enjoy first-person shooter video games and whatnot but in actual life I don’t want one. If I ever had to shoot someone…then I have to live with the fact that I shot someone. Not really how I want to be. I’m sure I’d shit myself in the moment but if it came to having to defend myself and I died cause I didn’t have a gun…well I guess that was my time.
Sure, but I think it’s about momentum and building blocks. Can’t ask Joe Schmo to get to the guillotines right now…not even sure I personally agree with that anyway…but we as an American society have gotten very, very comfortable with a life full of conveniences. I think a lot of people are seeing things falling apart not sure what to do. Attending a peaceful protest is really energizing and hopeful for folks that are looking to take any sort of action. You see so many other people feeling the same way you do and it kind of snaps you out of something and you realize you care and your neighbors care. Yes fighting directly against an enemy is needed but a lot of revolution and resistance is also caring for your community and taking care of one another when systems fall. I think there’s a quiet power in just showing up for one another. Why put out the doom message that step 1 is not enough, when it’s going to require step 1, 2, 3…and so on.
Looooooooove the Katamari Damacy soundtrack. Every now and then I bust out in the jazzy lounge singer song…I know you love me. I want to wad you up into my life. Let’s roll up to beee a single staaaaar in the skyyyyyy
