Okay, I’ll bite and take a few minutes to refute yet another of your seemingly patently false statements that you provide no evidence for.

Are you talking about the expanded child tax credit that the senate didn’t pass(the house did)? If so, that’s not on the president.

I downvoted you at almost every opportunity bc it seems like you’re just talking out of your ass, which isn’t helpful. If I missed something that you’re referring to for poverty, feel free to share and support your argument.

There’s likely no 1 magic solution… it’ll take multiple fronts: education, community-building, better(less misinformation) social media…

Is there, though? I was trying to come up with some examples yesterday and all I can find from my admittedly lefty algo are fears propagated because of Trump’s words or incoming cabinet appointments. They are at least based on actual recorded words as opposed to cherry-picked data or “feels”. I guess the left could be cherry-picking data to support their arguments also, but the logic seems more sound, at least to me.

Appreciate the info!

If they don’t already exist, it sounds like a niche need for a third-party company that has some preset templates of different options? Add a lawyer and some legal aid and could be very helpful for the system.

Considering how under-funded and understaffed the IRS has been/is, they do a pretty amazing job with what they have to work with. Simplifying or redoing our tax codes again is a huge task that will take time. There does need to be some sort of progress though! We’ll see what type of government we’ll have shortly.

While I can concede your point that it’s feasible and possibly even more practical to open from the stem, I gotta say that since switching to the other end years ago(because I saw a similar thread on reddit), it’s been super easy and I’ve had zero issues. The stem just has a higher rate of fucking up, but it’s not like either end will fully decimate the banana. Peeling properly after it’s opened is an easy fix either way.

IIRC, the reason sodium batteries would be better is we have abundant stocks of sodium, whereas the raw materials for most other batteries are limited and require more destructive mining. John Oliver just covered some of this on his show last Sunday. If that tech can be improved, hopefully there won’t be any deep sea mining for more raw materials!

You can sail the high seas for Fallout. It’s worth it!

Sign me up, too. This looks and sounds fantastic!

Mmm, had to look up sultanas but they sound like a great addition! My kids like it sweeter of course, but I love the mix of dried fruit and crunch. Will have to play around with it some, but thanks for sharing!

I aspire to be like your wife and be able throw it all together. My family loves granola with yogurt, so I need to practice. I have everything but the cranberries on hand. Sounds delicious, thank you!

I know it’s fairly simple to make but I haven’t taken a stab yet. Do you mind sharing your recipe for the granola?
