Northwest US: smoked salmon with a side of berries. Sockeye with little or no sugar added is the best IMO. The berries should be native varieties if you want to try for authenticity, though the invasive blackberries are really tasty, too.
And even if OP doesn’t end up working in genetics, there’s a good chance their studies will lead to other great opportunities.
The choice is clear.
In general, yes. Especially at the national level, politicians are not reading and writing bills. They delegate that work to their staff, and/or take prepared drafts from various interest groups. The politician’s job is to be the face of the operation and garner support for the bill or cause at hand. They also spend a ton of their time raising money for their next election campaign, or the campaigns of their friends and party members.
In a similar vein, political parties are essentially marketing organizations. The party’s job is to get its members elected. Parties will change their platforms over time if they think it will give them an electoral advantage.
Do any cities still have Critical Mass rides? I could totally see this guy showing up to one of those.
One of mine is to combine a weekend of mountain biking with a music festival. I want to wake up early in the morning and ride until my legs are dead, then spend the afternoon and evening eating, drinking, and listening to great music until it’s time to go to bed. Then wake up the next morning and do it over again. I have the spot all picked out. One of these summers I will prioritize the time to make it happen.
My wife’s family once baked potatoes in the engine compartment during a road trip, just to see if it would work. Enough fumes leaked out of the engine that everything tasted slightly of oil and exhaust. Car engines are much tighter now, but I’m sure you still get a similar effect.
GPS devices only receive GPS signals; they do not broadcast any data. So carrying a basic handheld GPS device won’t give away your position to anyone else. However, a smarter device like a phone or InReach emergency locating device can relay your location to others.
For communications, lots of people would suddenly get really interested in VPNs and encryption (for using the existing Internet), private wireless mesh networks (for city- and region-level communication), and even amateur radio. Owners of mesh nodes or radios would need to limit their broadcasting time and/or do a lot of moving around to avoid being located.
IIRC Chandler was the only one with a substantial job. He worked in IT and then as a data scientist. There was a running joke that he couldn’t explain his job in a way that his dense friends could understand.
Also that a group of underemployed 20-somethings can afford huge, well-furnished apartments in Manhattan.

I know we’re in the bizarro timeline, but really?
I always took the story as monarchist rather than fascist. Simba’s family is the ruling blood line, hence why the throne passes from Simba’s father to Scar to Simba. Kings and queens are standard fare in Disney’s animated movies. But I suppose fascist versus monarchist is a distinction without a difference here.
some of the embedded ideology is very disturbing. Some authors have argued that the movie implicitly supports fascism
The 1994 version, or the 2019 remake? The original had the “Be Prepared” musical sequence where the hyenas are goose-stepping for Scar, clearing framing them as akin to Nazis parading for Hitler. I have not seen the 2019 version to know what may have changed.
Community statistics are available from the Lemmy API. For example, this URL returns the info for this community: https://lemm.ee/api/v3/community?name=fedigrow
The community statistics are listed in the returned data under counts:.
The API only returns current numbers, though. To create a time series you need to write a script to grab the community statistics on a regular basis and store the results.
For an OpenChristian community, you are welcome to take over !progressivechristian@sh.itjust.works. The existing mod is long gone. Let me know if you want it.
I do not know of any instances focusing on religious communities, but I assume most general-purpose instances would be fine with you opening a religious community. If you search communities you will find lots of existing religious ones across several of the large instances, though they are generally not very active. If you find that the community you want already exists, but is dead, consider taking it over and bringing it back to life.
The Calvin peeing window decal is the cherry on top. 🤌
Echoes of late 2022 when Twitter abruptly fired thousands of people, then turned around days later and tried to rehire many of them. I’m sure it’s purely a coincidence that one person is closely tied to both incidents.

Now I’m curious to try “good” lutefisk. I grew up hearing about how exceptionally awful it is.
