Same name on Twitter- if you're here then you know me. Age: 27, here for the arts and socials. I write less than I used to, but I haven't given up on my current runs!
Consequently, conservatives have clung to it as something that "libruls have taken from us!"
This also collides with the unpasteurized milk fad. Because ridding your milk of pathogens is an affront against god etc.
So since they couldn't keep that one going, they switched to regular whole milk.
Of course, the full fat did cause problems in the weight of kids, but this was part of a bigger picture of declining food quality and increasing obesity for American people.
So schools stopped stocking whole milk. Usually it was just 2%. This is what I drank at home and at school.
This was pinned on hormones in the milk (that didn't exist, because FDA rules regarding that have existed for a long time), but also that it was full fat so was causing problems with body weight (only for girls, naturally, this was the 90's, if you were over 90lbs you were treated like a cow)

First, whole milk was blamed for girls reaching puberty earlier than normal.
I'm actually excited about this because I've been avoiding switching for the same reason. I use a lot of older tech that requires traditional batteries and upgrading to rechargeable sets has been fraught with issues every time I tried. I'd absolutely go in on a set that *works*.

I love these twirly candle pinwheels. There's one of the multi-tier ones on sale near me and I'm considering it. My grandma had one like it.

If the motor mounts did their job and the hood wasn't completely caved in then it's very possible the engine survived. Now who's looking for an 06 Acura engine IDK but I guess it's there lol.

And the engine block could probably be pulled. Fuel tank and rail for sure. Wiring too. ECU and whatnot. Somewhat useful things.

Still. I'm not sure how many useful bits you can get from a car that fucked though lol.
I found this thing on sale near me once and it made my day. Like all right, I guess that really does happen to people. Sorry about your flipped sedan buddy, but this is hilarious.

But we just couldn't find powder anywhere anymore! Target has picked up more powder stock recently though so that's nice, and we found some at our military commissary.

Uplift is a rabbit hole. The customizations are endless.
It's not a cheap answer, but FlexiSpot does all of this. I'm planning on buying two of them later this year for my husband and I. The tops on them aren't bad, but I have butcher block countertops that I use and like. You can attach your own top.
You can get all sorts of add ons like a PC shelf.
itβs rough out here

I super recommend the game! I participate in Return to Journey every year and help sherpa people to getting all the scarf runes (if they listen that is). It's a great time.
I'm in Cybersecurity/Network Engineering/IT and yeah. I like my bullshit contained to my workstations and servers.
HOWEVER I would absolutely all in a logical, secure, fully localized home automation system. And there's a few companies out there enabling that possibility.
I'm trying to fix the fucking DOORS why is the ALARM SYSTEM running the INTERIOR POWER? And why is it all connected downstream of the FUCKING AC UNIT?
Just a little guy with only an ECU and a useless brick of a BCU trying to get by in life.
