On food stamp applications, if you say that you live with other people but that you don't share resources, then they don't include the other people's income. I wouldn't be surprised if that has changed somehow though? Are you a minor?

Hahaha, II love that you're kinda faking them out even if you're right or not lol. I used to work as a cashier, and I would always guess the weight of the vegetables/fruits before putting them on the scale/scanner thing because i love estimating that stuff too. I did it out loud once and got it almost exact and a couple customers jeard and wete impressed. So I tried a few times and the customers in line and I made a game of it and cheered or "awww"ed when I got it wrong. So fun.

I also like trying to guess the amount of something i need for recipes. Like, a recipe calls for a cup of onions, I look at the whole onions in store and based on size I imagine what it would look like diced in a measuring cup, I usually get close and its so satisfying

That's so wild! How do you eat pasta, or steak? Or do you have pretty specific eating habits that don't include those foods? Lol

Heck yeah measuring sibling! Hahaha I love that they're everywhere, easy access is important if you gotta measure RIGHT NOW!

I used to have two but I lost the large one somehow! It still upsets me to this day and it's been months lol. I want to get a mini Keychain one just because.

Temperature/humidity checking sounds kinda fun since it probably fluctuates a ton. Is there any particular tend you've noticed or that it fluctuates like, minute to minute or anything?

Honestly I would bet that it is a burnout thing, but it's been a couple of years that the love of cooking has been decreasing....I guess it could still be burnout though 🫠🫠 since you're on keto, can you give me some other ideas of what you eat? It looks like charcuterie is the best option lol but yeah, sneaking veggies in is a must

I usually bring my own reusable bags and regardless if a bagger is there or not, I offer to bag my own groceries unless it's more efficient/faster for me to just ring up my card. I used to be a cashier and I absolutely hated when people would just stand there and watch me bag 3-5 bags of groceries while there's a line of 4 people behind them. I always appreciated customers who do it themselves. A lot if the time people who bag groceries that aren't cashiers also clean messes, gather shopping carts, face aisles etc, so if it's a huge supermarket they'll probably be happy to skip that job.

This would be super helpful! I only have base level knowledge around communism, and it's so hard to find both information that isn't absolute western imperialist propaganda against communism, or any nuanced critiques from communists on China/Russia/etc. I think learning about the criticisms from an ML perspective and having them readily available would be valuable, because so many people think that communists pledge absolute unwavering support to anything even somewhat perceived as communist in the media, which I know isn't true, y'all are capable of critical thinking.

Hey I probably wouldn't know this if I wasn't heavily left leaning with an interest in learning about anarchism/communism along with having a pretty radical community that I've participated in. Mainstream politics, no matter how balanced they are, give no nuance at ALL. I searched for "antifa origins" and it took 3 pages of the search for me to even start scraping past US propaganda about the movement. In order to even find this source, I had to search for "antifa origins it's going down" because "it's going down" is a very radical leftist publication that I figure would have a countering narrative...All that to find a Smithsonian article lol.

Not only is it popular with cis women, but like the entire queer community. Also, it looks so insanely hyper stylized that I think that appeals to a lot of people who are into cinema that may not otherwise watch it. I really want to see it on a microdose of acid tbh

It is muggy as hell in my house right now and there is nothing more I would rather do than shrink down to ant size and swim around in that water droplet! Refreshing
