I love these comics, I always know at least one of the words (and therefore get to feel smart), and learn some new ones with cute illustrations.

I completely agree. Every so often I get an itch to have a look at Reddit, and though the niche subs still seem alright, the comments of anything near the front page are beleaguered with low-quality jokes and karma grabs.

God forbid you’re actually interested in discussing the subject, any comment that takes more than a few seconds to write or read gets buried under a thousand others like your first examples.

Probably because it was a big event and everyone wanted to be out to watch the roads switch sides.

It’s like Final Destination with children.

I think that’s a fantastic description for Willy Wonka. I remember as a kid watching the boat ride scene and thinking “is Mom sure this is a kid’s movie‽”

Aww what a sweet baby. I’m sure he appreciates the comforting after the vet <3

Yes! We call those her leg warmers too :D

Quick batch of chicken stock (lemmy.world)

From the bones of a couple Costco rotisserie chickens and veggie scraps saved in the freezer. Only boiled the bones for a couple hours, so didn’t get as much gelatin out of them as I’d like, but it was getting late. I also thought I had more pint jars, had to put the last bit of stock into a couple quart jars in the fridge....

Followed the blue book, 10lbs for 20 minutes.

Thanks for confirming. That’s what I thought I’d remembered reading, and I had wanted to toss a quart jar in there, but was too tired in the moment to track down and verify it would be safe.

Makes sense not to do that with things that are more sensitive, but stock wouldn’t be bothered by being cooked a little extra.

Hey no aesthetic shaming my food!

That’s true, it’s just that they use savory as a descriptor, when I found the end result to be more dessert than main.

They’ve got a version that uses onions and much less sugar, so maybe I’ll try a mix of onions and cabbage to get that caramelization. Or just apply the sugar as a glaze on the bottom before the bake, so that it’s a layer of sweetness, and not sweet throughout.

Gorgeous view, and got yourself a natural cooler with those icebergs!

Man that’s just begging for some sauce or a curry! Giving me some inspiration for dinner 🤤

So basically 24h fitness hires a guy with loads of racist posts on social media, who them proceeds to be a racist. I’m surprised that the general manager knew that her employee had repeatedly called the cops and harassed a man because of his race, and yet didn’t fire him.

I’ll confess I do this with some regularity. If I unwrap a piece of cheese and see it’s moldy, well I’m not tossing a nice hunk of aged gouda in the trash! I’ll slice the mold off, then do a sniff and nibble test. If it still tastes moldy, keep slicing until it doesn’t.

I’ve done this since I was a kid, so who knows if it’s actually safe, or if I’ve just spent decades rolling the dice and getting lucky.

Just to clarify (as I think there might be more than one mountain named baldy), this is the one that’s north of Los Angeles. They’re really reliant on natural snow, but when it’s good, they’re the best slopes in southern California.
