Freeze it. I grew up upper middle class, so the idea of freezing bread was mildly repugnant. Now I'm poor as fuck, and I can promise it doesn't make the slightest difference. Thaws quickly too.

I live on the same street as an elementary school, I see dozens of 3rd-5th graders walking to school every morning. Really confused about why this person was singled out.

I feel like at this point the Republicans don't have to worry about their policies being popular anymore. Their voters are stuck in an information bubble where anything they don't like is scapegoated on someone else.

Your updated number is still off by over a million. Not everyone over the age of 18 is eligible to vote. Not that it changes the point much, but you want to look for eligible voters vs over 18.

He didn't file the paperwork soon enough in some states, so he's still on the ballot. He sued at least one state to get himself removed even though he missed the deadline and ballots were already being printed.

Solar eclipse is when the moon is between the sun and the earth. Lunar eclipse is when the earth is between the moon and the sun. A "new moon" is just when the side of the moon that we can see isn't facing the sun.

You're not going to get the whole interior down to 75° but having cool dehumidified air blowing on you makes a huge difference.

We don't even issue alerts for anything below magnitude 5. Below 4 can barely be felt, we wouldn't even call that an earthquake here.

About $70 I think. I didn't have to deal with buying an extra battery, cause my original mower was stolen out of my garage. I keep the battery inside to prevent temperature degradation, so I still had it when I bought another mower with the battery included.

Before that I'd just mow half, and do other yardwork while the battery was charging.

I bought it after getting tired of having to fix my old gas mower. The pull cord broke, then the mechanism that it attaches to broke, then the priming bulb cracked and started leaking gas, having to go get gas for it, etc... the electric just works. I don't have to winterize or fuck with the carburetor, I just press the button and it works. It's more powerful than my old mower, doesn't bog down if I skip mowing for a week. It's better in every way.

Because they love everything from China. Woks, genocide, pollution, capitalism, murdering protesters, they love it all.

Also, if you have mini blinds made in the 70s, they're full of lead
