And its fucking CRAZY how that happened. People can argue that “Beyonce isn’t a country singer” all they want, but her song “YA YA” off the Cowboy Carter album (my favey fave off the album) is an incredible song with just her powerful lungs alone, however, the lyrics are shit that White Conservative Country Music People should eat up:

“My family live and died in America, hm Good ol’ USA, shit (Good ol’ USA) Whole lotta red in that white and blue, huh History can’t be erased, ooh You lookin’ for a new America? (America) Are you tired, workin’ time and a half for half the pay? (Half the pay) Ya-ya (Ooh-ooh, oh-oh) I just pray that we don’t crash, keep my Bible on the dash We gotta keep the faith”

And in a later verse she talks about staying strapped with a pistol on her hip and a Bible in her hands.

Like…this is exactly the type of shit these people literally dream about.

This is always my answer to this question. I thought radio stations must have been the busiest places with all those bands coming and going!

Weird to think that a conservative ass tiny Texas town with absolutely NOTHING in it besides an Air Force base was once pushing community benefits like street cars.

I wonder what it could’ve been today if they had gone with this plan 100 years ago. 🤔

Reading that anyone could think Bell’s Two Hearted is “fruity” is fucking wild.

I’m guessing he hadn’t actually tried it at the time.

Someone on here posted a glowing review of Fields of Mistria. I downloaded the game and I can’t stop playing it!

It’s that perfect cozy farm Sim game, mimicking the best parts of Stardew Valley and minimizing the worst parts. I cannot wait for the full release, and I’m so glad I happened upon that review!

Yeah. In Maryland all alcoholic beverages are in a liquor store. Walmart legally does not sell beer or wine there. Not gas stations. Nor anywhere other than the “packy store”.

Its hella inconvenient.

I’m someone who puts all sweets in the freezer/fridge, and just realize that some become borderline inedible with this.

9th

Crunchwrap Supreme and drench it in Diablo Sauce with every bite!

Its my go to order!

Late to the game but it was DnD night for me! Nearly lost a party member but our cleric pulled a revivify! (Honestly with the diamond requirement, we pulled some shenanigans to get it to work but the DM was chill about it). But @ 2300 hrs, the fucking bad guy came back with a second health bar and like all of us are tapped for spells and potions, so we’ll see next session who actually makes it out! Got my second character set up already!

He wants to send his daughters to school in a place where they’re not only being valued for their wombs. Where they’re looked at as being equal contributors to their field of study. Where they’re provided opportunities the same as every other scholar there, and not assumed to be in college to find a husband.

And, yes, there is a bit of “if they get into trouble will they have options?” At play I’m sure as well.

Quit being obtuse.

God he was so fucking funny. It was a legit travesty when he let the mask slip and showed us he was actually a huge prick that shouldn’t be supported.

I mean, it’s still a place I’d tell people to go visit. The bars/restaurants are awesome, and the (not so distant) history is sobering. I found the Stasi museum hella interesting/terrifying.

I’d just mentally prep people before-hand for the, ah, “bluntness” 😂

My friend and I just assumed he could tell we were American and didn’t want to serve us. We didn’t stick around to ask. And he didn’t tell us off or to leave or anything, but just more blatantly ignored us.

Like I said, overall still good time. Everyone else was nice and happy enough to chat/serve us (or at least appeared to be lmao)

I’m white af, but, as an American, I didn’t get treated as rudely anywhere else in Germany than Berlin. Still had a great time overall in the city, but, not really in a rush to go back.

My friend and I were standing at a bar mulling over the menu, just kind of murming to one another over what drinks we wanted while we were waiting for the bartender to finish up with his other customers. It wasn’t busy, but he was attending to other people. When he was finally done, he approached us and I said “Hi how are you?” with a smile. He didn’t say a single word to us, just took the menus from in front of us and put them on the back shelf, and then turned away.

So we left. Our money clearly wasn’t good enough there, and we spent it in another bar across the alleyway instead.

This is my answer too! I can never decide if I liked Prague or Brussels more!

Both highly underrated places to visit for Americans imo.

I have a huge crush on Charlie Day as well! I think I’d take him as Dr. Newt Geizsler from Pacific Rim tho. While I am usually like “Daw I love Charlie” in IASIP, there’s something about him wearing winter underwear with socks that’s an immediate turn off. 😂

That turning on the light in the car at night was illegal because it would cause a glare on the windshield.

I believed this into my mid-20s when my husband corrected me with a fuckton of teasing and incredulity.

I’m someone who doesn’t mind repetition/eating leftovers.

So I would swap between leftovers, and then my quick lunch would be 2 hardboiled eggs, some babybel or string cheese, and then some kind of fruit.

Minimal cooking, easy clean up, easy to take with you.

2 eggs, 2 cheese, and a banana is surprisingly filling.

I visited a brewery in Germany that was mined out of the bottom of a volcano. It was pretty fucking chilly underground there even in the dead of summer, so maybe that’s where they kept it?

Idk, I showed up to the wrong tour and I only know like 3 words in German so I had zero idea what was happening 98% of the time.

Man I feel this. I’ve been obsessed with Cooking Diary since May of last year.

Just this morning, I popped awake, threw on some YT drama videos for background noise, and just played CD for like an hour and a half before I was like “Time to be productive”. Good easy start to a Sunday.

That being said, I saw further down you try not to spend money on the mobile games. I went through a phase in 2019/2020 where I was fucking massively into a Chinese dating Sim game called “Mr Love Queens Choice.” I spent $850 over the course of 2 years. It was a great game and I had a ton of fun, but there was a point where I crossed into a bonus tier that you could only get to by spending a certain dollar amount. And then I was like “Oh. Oh no boo boo what is you doin’?!”.
