I'm not sure I understand why "mustard free" would be listed, they should just be required to list all ingredients. Like the person above said "spices" isn't okay.

But that said, mustard is in most of my homemade soups. Once you discover the joys of toasted mustard seeds, you don't go back

I once had a "roommate"* for several months that did a ridiculously good Walken impersonation. Like, good enough that if you recorded it and played it back to back with a real Walken recording, it would be extremely difficult to tell them apart.

The problem was, he would do this constantly. Sometimes going days in end refusing to speak normally. I once overhear him dirty talking to himself while masturbating and using the voice. It was awful.

*Very long, funny-in-the-telling type of story that was genuinely fucking awful

I love Marster's reading of them. He's freaking incredible

Yeah, unless there's a new short story or something. Caught up on all the mainline stuff. Like I said, my least favorite trope. How did you feel about it? Still my number one ongoing series, but that just bugs me really badly

Depends on if what I said would be a spoiler for you or not...

I've been making overnight oats with chia seeds. Oats, oat milk, chia seeds, a little sugar. Stick it in the fridge for 2-12 hours. Chop up some bananas, blueberries, strawberries, really whatever fruit you want. Add sunflower seeds or some ground up pistachios and a bit of Greek yogurt. It's so freaking good, and so fast, and I can grab it whenever and eat while I study

You've got my vote! #MorlockInTheWhitehouse2028

I despise it when a character has had a long arch proving their worthy of what they do, and then it turns out late in the game they're a chosen one or some shit. If you've been successfully fighting monsters for 15 books, going from a moderate combatant to a super mega awesome fucking wizard who wipes out an entire fucking species to save someone then you have proved your badass monster fighting chops, and you don't need to be the chosen one. What made you awesome is that you were a (mostly) normal dude who became amazing through hard work and sacrifice. Now you're just someone the gods chose or whatever and it completely ruins the entire concept of what the character was.

Two of my absolute favorite series of all time just recently did this, and I am devastated.

Ugh. Morlock racism crops up yet again! The morlocks did nothing wrong

Not everyone would need to save or invest. Each individual employee would not be collecting the full value of what they produce. They would all be collectively collecting the full value of what they produce via the business. Management still exists, money still goes back into business. This isn't some fantasy scenario, it actually exists successfully in the real world. Mondragon is the most cited example. Just because the enterprise is collectively owned by the workers doesn't mean that each worker is in full control. It means the firm is run democratically, collectively.

Honestly? Flat earth? It's not even funny as a joke. That entire movement has been so incredibly detrimental, and dangerous. It has shattered families, and been an instruction manual for other conspiracy theorists. And the worst thing of all is that it makes actual, real facts about how the earth is in, in reality, a hollow shell with a breathable atmosphere in its inferior, come across as just as crazy as flat earth. How are we supposed to spread the truth of hollow earth when flat earthers are out there making us look crazy? Just because hollow earth also points out that the government is lying about the earth doesn't mean we're the same! People need to know about hollow earth! Otherwise, we'll never be able to heal the housing market by building condos inside the earth!
