Eggs have a natural membrane that is removed through washing in the USA amongst other places, for example. This membrane allows eggs a longer shelflife and also allows them to be kept unrefrigerated

I'm sorry, but dealbreakers are dealbreakers for a reason. And dealbreakers aren't stuff that should be treated like it can be changed easily. Dealbreakers are things like political alignments, interest in having children, marriage and other stuff.

And asking women to give a guy they don't like "just a chance" has not done anything ever for anyone, seriously. The amount of times I hear about women giving the "weird guy" a second chance has always ended in the guy either seriously overstepping boundaries or taking the later rejection even worse. I have yet to meet a "weird guy" who hasn't done something seriously heinous later down the line.

And I am certain you didn't mean it that way, but saying "It's ok for you to help your dates avoid these" makes it sound like you're advocating for invalidating womens opinions, as if they can't make decisions for themselves and need help from a man to make the "right" one.

Shoutout to our nonbinary nuclear bomb Pocket.

Yeah, it's always DEI getting blamed and not just that designs are bland compared to the rest of the market

Damn, sorry for not getting the memo I guess.

And here I thought you were at least capable of formulating a proper argument, guess I was expecting too much from someone who lets feelings rule over their decision making.

???

You wrote a comment in a public forum, and I formulated a factual response as to why it's wrong. What did you expect? For everyone to suck your dick? C'mon, give me an actual response based on facts and logic as to why you're right. Or are you only capable of declaring everyone else as sheeple without even knowing why they are?

"Oh no, queer people are in my bideo games" this is what the 'DEI bad' argument looks like to anyone with a modicum of common sense.

Sincerely, DEI right now is just the newest made up enemy of chuds. Most of the time devs have to fight against higher ups to include any diversity apart from what gamers have considered "cis white male" adjacent.

Women as a main character? DEI

Pronouns? DEI

White male protagonist isn't manly enough? DEI

Those are all based on real examples btw

Mastodon is annoyingly gatekeepy too. They are super heavy on content warnings, and tend to not play nice when someone doesn't respect those unspoken rules.

Also, servers are much more likely to defederate with each other, due to what some perceive as "minor scuffles".

All in all I understand why people prefer Bluesky over Mastodon, it's simpler and the search function isn't borked to hell and back either. Blocking is also incredibly effective on Bluesky, if you block someone neither you nor they will ever see each other's content again.

I live in an apartment building on the ground floor, I always tape a sign to my decorated window to inform people where to ring for trick or treating. It works quite well for me, and groups know immediately who is willing to give out candy
