Oooh good one.

holy crap that artist has tooooons of anime armor. amazing

Reminds me of Lost Positives by Rob Words. Disgruntled. what about gruntled?

Farmers markets in my area are 2x expensive as grocery stores. I’ve never been to a market cheaper than grocery.

oh that site is neat.

US$ 0.88 and US$ 1.76 per pound(lb)

WTF my grocery store?!

100% if I could afford it.

There’s a story that pops up time and again on forums about men buying time with escorts but not having sex with them. They have dinner or something, then she just listens to him. Idk if it’s true or not, I’ve never heard of it irl. It’s like therapy with a hot woman.

You can compliment anything you like. It’s all appreciated! :)

Too broke for that, sorry.

No, see the text of the post. I’m linking to other people’s stuff.

Anything. Literally anything. The only time I get noticed is when someone needs something from me. I define my existence by how useful I am to others because that’s the only time I’ve ever felt wanted. I hate it, but it’s better than being completely ignored (which has happened many times in my life).

Please do this in humans. Please actually work.

Look at the name of the community. Your response isn’t really helpful.

I just cant fathom going to a place and think boy I wish there were more X here.

I can. I can’t learn from or have discussions with people who have literally the same life as me. That’s kinda boring.

Is it an American thing?

Yes. Diversity has been drilled into me my entire life. There are news articles and lawsuits about discrimination all the time. IDK about other countries, but, yeah, diversity is a huge thing in the USA.

What I mean about constructing statistics is going to a place and starting counting people hmmm yes there are 95% straight people here and 96% white people here

No.

In my post, I linked to a statistics page from a popular homebrewing community. https://brulosophy.com/2024/05/27/2024-general-homebrewer-survey-results/

This is not representative of the American demographics. It’s largely skewed. I then went to my regular meeting and saw the same thing. I wondered if there’s a specific reason for the difference. I asked here.

Construing statistics about the people around you?

Huh? I don’t understand the question.

And then being displeased about some fluke in the numbers?

Where did I say I was pleased or displeased?

Like what does it matter??

Look at the name of the community you’re participating in.

I don’t stand on it, I drink it.

I joke. IDK. I’ve never had it. I’m not much into wine. I’ll have to think about this, but I get your point: is wine called that bc it’s fermented grapes or is it some broader category? Is anything over 10% (or wherever the line is drawn), usually not carbonated, usually stored a year or more, is that wine? Does it need to be made from fruit?

Cider means a fermented apple beverage. It’s not a class of beverage. So the phrase apple cider is redundant. My nit pick is that I think cider should be ANY fruit fermented beverage. Beer isn’t only barley, it’s any grain. Wheat beer, gf beer has no barley. Etc etc. But a fermented pear drink isn’t pear cider, it’s perry.

I think cider should be a group of fermented fruit beverages with no added sugar and usually carbonated. Alcohol under 10%.

lol, there is a lot of confusion when I’m researching things or buying parts.

I’d love for this to be true, but I’d need to see some proof. It feels like wish-fulfillment.
