I find downvotes important in maintaining signal to noise long term. If people downvote me, I take that as a signal that there’s either something I don’t know, or that I need to improve how I communicate the idea. I want a community where I can have a real conversation with people that both agree and disagree with me, not an echo chamber that only allows conforming views, nor a shit flinging free for all.
If I’m just going to cook 1 meal, I’ll usually make cheese tortellini with garlic bread. Sometimes pot stickers.
If i’m going to make a batch of something for multiple meals, it’s usually burritos, sometimes drunken noodles, sometimes fried rice.
Once or twice a year I’ll make a big pot of chili with cornbread, get a dozen or so meals out of it.
For a while, I thought kissing was how women got pregnant.
It MIGHT have had something to do with getting a half sibling in spite of my father saying he hadn’t had sex with the mother. Religion makes people weird, is it really that big a deal to admit you had sex out of wedlock, when everybody already knows you got someone pregnant?
I’m new here, but the straw that broke the camel’s back was reddit getting rid of r/random. Also more reposts than new content. Also feels like there are more bots than people. Plenty of other anti-user stuff over the years.
If we’re talking about ignoring a date printed on the package, salt. Dunno why it had a date printed on it at all.
If we’re talking about something that does eventually go bad, it would be some other spice that only rarely gets used, dunno which one though.
If we’re talking about something actually considered perishable, eggs.
If I downvote something without explaining, it’s probably because it sounded like a bot, but I wasn’t sure enough to report it.
