I like potato chips, and can&#39;t eat them very much or I&#39;ll get fat. <br/> <br/>I tried out these Pringles Fat-Free chips because they were super low-cal. BBQ flavor. the fuck. <br/> <br/>The can said they had 70 calories per serving, which meant the whole can had 490 calories inside total. I could munch through a can in a day with my lunch, dinner, etc. So I got several cans, and began enjoying one a day for the past four days. But what they dont fucking tell you... <br/> <br/>Except in tiny print you cant read without a fucking electron microscope <br/> <br/>...is that the primary ingredient is something called &#34;olean&#34; which I have since learned is Latin for &#34;Unwashable &amp; Indestructible Ass Grease.&#34; <br/> <br/>Oh Yeah. I&#39;m not even kidding. <br/> <br/>So today, while I&#39;m standing in the living room debating whether or not Laundry or Dishes will get done first, I get the urge to fart. I live alone, so sweet. I let the honk loose and its wrong. Something just sounded wrong. I know my own wind, and I have never farted a sound that sounded like a fart wrapped in a pillow. <br/> <br/>Oh yes, something was very wrong. I had just shat myself. But this evil olean makes shitting yourself sound almost like a regular fart, and had I not been particularly attentive, it could easily have gone unnoticed, I&#39;m telling you. THAT&#39;s how utterly covert and evil this olean stuff is. What the fuck?! What if I&#39;d gone out to hang with friends or gone for a drive, what then? <br/> <br/>So I walk carefully to the bathroom and disrobe. before I even sit on the toilet, I wad paper and carefully wipe from the front. Sure enough, it was light brown, and had the texture of soft spackle. You fucking Pringle bastards. <br/> <br/>I sat down and pushed a bit, and lo, out came a jet that I didnt even feel an urge for one minute earlier. It piled in the bowl like brown marshmallow fluff. <br/> <br/>The problem rose when I tried to wipe. I went through a whole fucking roll of TP and could not get it all off me. So. <br/> <br/>I jumped in the shower. Yep, its gross, but it had to be done. There I stood, water pouring down, cheeks spread, and using my own hand to make certain I&#39;m clean. <br/> <br/>That was when I discovered that after using my hand to wipe myself (before I soaped the area) my hand came back covered in some sort of transparent grease. It was so fucking foul. The grease made water bead off my hand. It was tacky too, and very difficult to manage. <br/> <br/>So I grabbed the bar of saop and went to work. <br/> <br/>You fucking Pringle bastards. <br/> <br/>The bar of soap came away coated in grease as well, and would no longer wash. I had to turn the water to hot and massage the soap for five minutes to get it to the point where I could use it again. It took me an hour to get the fucking grease off my pucker. I shudder to think of what its doing INSIDE ME right now, but I will damned sure never eat that shit again. <br/> <br/>Fucking Pringle bastards. <br/> <br/>This is where the joke about &#34;anal leakage&#34; came from. its real. Fuck Pringles. 2026-03-12T21:12:30Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs2dr3jwhf2ddnk6xnq8ygg8ctefps8zzkhfehmrsc8wcmqjn9g7pgzyzpmqvamfv3nm58jjhr3hkn98vhtvf9h7kldz3xmrqgswfkyhfyyg8g9p0a what a name...<br/> <img src="https://media.friedcheese.us/uploads/fc/6a/81/fc6a81c60cdf9c97c12ec981d645411d2042a318a1892dacd68c2d0db57b9737.webp"> <br/> 2026-03-11T18:49:38Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs9x0j2l2c98svk44m8t84jzc29u57pzjav0flt0f7nvdhzjfmdjsgzyzpmqvamfv3nm58jjhr3hkn98vhtvf9h7kldz3xmrqgswfkyhfyygum86sr &gt; Iran tells world to get ready for oil at $200 a barrel as it fires on merchant ships <br/> <br/>uhoh 2026-03-11T17:59:43Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsgkrwtnnaxaerd2nrhu9zd4ldxraq8ycwf2m75y4crjfmyytsgmvqzyzpmqvamfv3nm58jjhr3hkn98vhtvf9h7kldz3xmrqgswfkyhfyygpsljd9 so what do you think it is that Israel has videos of him doing?

Kangaroo in Australia?? If we are to stop killing them to control their populations, we have a rather large problem on our hands. <br/> <br/>In the USA the insurance companies in cooperation with the DNR (Department of Natural Resources -- our gov pals involved in nature) share data on herd sizes and are a major driver behind deer hunting in the midwest. Bag/tag limits (number you&#39;re allowed to kill) are calculated every year by estimating how successful hunters will be and how many we need to kill. Insurance companies pay to ensure more get killed. <br/> <br/>&#34;Need&#34; is the key word here. <br/> <br/>If we don&#39;t deal with them they do massive destruction to crops and they cause a lot of damage when they&#39;re hit by cars. Sometimes killing people. <br/> <br/>Most of these deer are processed into food but that&#39;s not relevant. What&#39;s important to understand is that we cannot peacefully coexist with many different wild animals because they spread disease and cause destruction. I wish we could, but we just can&#39;t. There&#39;s too many of us and we&#39;ve invaded and destroyed their homes. There&#39;s nowhere for them to go. <br/> <br/>So what do we do about this? Depopulate the planet? A massive restructuring and migration of society unlike anything ever seen before? <br/> <br/>Killing animals just to kill animals is bad. This is why I don&#39;t hunt anymore. I don&#39;t need the meat, so I don&#39;t hunt. This was passed down to me from my dad. I was not allowed to hunt what I wasn&#39;t willing to eat (and pay for processing of the meat, in the case of deer, which can be a few hundred dollars at the butcher). <br/> <br/>There is no clear solution to this problem. The world is complex. We need nuance when discussing these things. You can&#39;t look at the world as being binary black &amp; white / right &amp; wrong. <br/> <br/><a href="https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/25/sport/australia-kangaroo-culling-program-intl-hnk-dst/index.html">https://www.cnn.com/2023/03/25/sport/australia-kangaroo-culling-program-intl-hnk-dst/index.html</a> <br/> <br/><a href="https://news.cals.wisc.edu/2000/09/01/2000-will-be-a-make-or-break-deer-hunting-season-according-to-uw-madison-wildlife-ecologist/">https://news.cals.wisc.edu/2000/09/01/2000-will-be-a-make-or-break-deer-hunting-season-according-to-uw-madison-wildlife-ecologist/</a> 2025-02-06T18:43:37Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqstvqh6vfrqw8kcynypptu0z5kxdmhqsq5820n5a6xmskr2dgt45nszyzpmqvamfv3nm58jjhr3hkn98vhtvf9h7kldz3xmrqgswfkyhfyygcrwx5e In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsdst46yazy4wf4265xn3sk8vvupenpnzle336l8e75yr9nyecu6agxfmqlp'>nevent1q…mqlp</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>certain types of animals will go extinct because we bred them so they grow beyond normal proportions and will die on their own if not slaughtered.

In many parts of the world the ingredients are not available at all or it is prohibitively expensive to only consume it. There are other arguments like convenience which is highly valued when you live in a society that works you to death. <br/> <br/>We could probably start by lifting the subsidies that make animal byproducts so cheap so we can better achieve a price parity between animal and plant based diets, but entire production an distribution networks need to be revamped as well. <br/> <br/>This also doesn&#39;t consider that we have entire species that would go extinct if we weren&#39;t raising them to eat them. Like the turkeys we farm. You know what happens when the President pardons the turkey for Thanksgiving? Uhhh well it goes to a farm and keeps growing and growing and then dies because it can&#39;t walk anymore. Not so different from our broiler chickens which cannot survive because we bred them selectively for food. So what do we do about that? Is it more horrific to completely eliminate them from the planet? <br/> <br/>We can eat animals and still respect them. Buying local and from smaller farms is a great first step.<br/> <img src="https://media.friedcheese.us/uploads/a0/05/8a/a0058a2b7184b476775861c92e9e9351f628accbee208ad7a5d27204052c52bd.png"> <br/> 2025-02-05T22:11:58Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs0ra5vyzu2njdsdrfrfse8aa4jzp28z8wuf5nw0u8d3ggxyujqflgzyzpmqvamfv3nm58jjhr3hkn98vhtvf9h7kldz3xmrqgswfkyhfyyg5xxyg2 Love fishing with <span itemprop="mentions" itemscope itemtype="https://schema.org/Person"><a itemprop="url" href="/npub1gn0qy0qfxykljcdxsr864ns3ty0ymqflt4xpz7ruj0gtus85x88smpf63e" class="bg-lavender dark:prose:text-neutral-50 dark:text-neutral-50 dark:bg-garnet px-1"><span>barrett</span> (<span class="italic">npub1gn0…f63e</span>)</a></span><br/><video controls width="100%" class="max-h-[90vh] bg-neutral-300 dark:bg-zinc-700"><source src="https://media.friedcheese.us/uploads/8d/e9/45/8de945cfc85ca2c8f1f0c19f349a165c86ae22f099e7584fa69a77541e98a249.mov"></video><br/> 2025-02-05T20:38:51Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqs0tqf3arxyyw0nz2f4gwxa8706cr4vpt20559u70uuffnm663dw8czyzpmqvamfv3nm58jjhr3hkn98vhtvf9h7kldz3xmrqgswfkyhfyygyjuvjc In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqspqf8l86q8584069pvu8r57lpepj9gu6arjsd3e80alh6fyevgd7sy2mqlz'>nevent1q…mqlz</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Delta Chat is never mentioned in any privacy or alternative secure messenger guides.

Almost any style (pass on browns, tho). I&#39;ve been privileged to participate (as both vendor and lucky patron) in some of the largest and most exclusive beer festivals in the world. <br/> <br/>I love whiskey... and whisky. <br/> <br/>The culture drove me away. It just got to be too much. <br/> <br/>It&#39;s not normal for every other billboard to be about alcohol. <br/> <br/>It&#39;s not normal for every gas station and coffee shop to be selling hard liquor. <br/> <br/>It&#39;s not normal for you to be drinking *at* work (ISP/datacenter) <br/> <br/>It&#39;s not normal for you to be drinking with coworkers or customers 4 nights a week. (I started keeping a log of this, and it was ... eye-opening) <br/> <br/>Every family gathering: drinking. Every meetup with friends: drinking. <br/> <br/>Church events? Drinking. <br/> <br/>It&#39;s just... normal. But it&#39;s awful. <br/> <br/> <br/>So I just stopped, cold turkey. Part of it was I have some IBS issues and alcohol would really exacerbate it, so it was exhausting. And I had to keep explaining to friends and family I didn&#39;t want to drink anymore. For years they kept asking about it... <br/> <br/>So that&#39;s over. Gut is in a better place these days. I *can* drink a beer with friends and not get sick over it anyway, but I so dread the next day anyway because alcohol always makes you feel like shit regardless. <br/> <br/>Weed has none of that, so I&#39;d much rather smoke/vape/edibles. And I do. Life is so much better. <br/> <br/>If you don&#39;t want to drink because you think it sucks, just don&#39;t. Tell them no. If they don&#39;t want to be your friends anymore they&#39;re not friends worth having. 2024-10-02T15:57:42Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsvy0jt442pttdtl7e7t876kc5rzmpyszsk97hucdgrxfmnlu9zwsgzyzpmqvamfv3nm58jjhr3hkn98vhtvf9h7kldz3xmrqgswfkyhfyygf6dv6d In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsyflhnkywulfhrwjgyjt0z407s8fctj3vxljr6pzq5qgjwdhh3cpqrtj99g'>nevent1q…j99g</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>here&#39;s an older story about the problems they have near Virginia where all the datacenters like AWS us-east-1 are at <br/> <br/><a href="https://archive.is/u37wR">https://archive.is/u37wR</a> 2024-09-22T01:34:55Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqsxg2hghj2qm49dcvyf845y27l96fxulwhth9v6c0c0n59mjddwegczyzpmqvamfv3nm58jjhr3hkn98vhtvf9h7kldz3xmrqgswfkyhfyyg7nvtgr In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqszzfv4e5cmm28ehmzpeh0fpmcdfxl4tjl9hphwq4nzxdr4w42uk0c3eghsw'>nevent1q…ghsw</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I&#39;ve been there, barely bumped a customer&#39;s power cord and taken out their servers before.
