Wait, why do you say this? I’m no Plex shill, this is disappointing news to hear and is the strongest push toward Jellyfin I’ve had yet. But they’re certainly a business with employees they need to pay, and their app has an objectively large feature set that needs to be maintained. Their employees deserve raises and benefits, and if costs are rising at the grocery store, they’re probably rising for businesses too. Why are we stupid to believe their financial burden is growing?

I think they’re just pointing out how Trump is fully just running an ad for Tesla. The President of the USA is hosting an event to sell cars for a poor baby billionaire who’s had to reckon with the consequences of his actions. Groceries, housing, and healthcare are more expensive than ever, people are dying from preventable diseases and mass shootings, people are being ripped from bathrooms or their homes to prove they’re allowed to be there, and our fucking president is telling us to quit being whiny babies and buy $60k+ cars from an obscenely rich guy who deserves to be shot by firing squad.

I’m pretty sure this comic took its idea from an old vine

I’m really sorry. This is a terrible situation for you - and your daughter.

Can’t say I’ve ever seen this on Avalon

😆 nice one

I think you accidentally a word…or six

That’s the whole debate, OP. It’s solved with this short exchange.

Lmao excellent reference

I’m really missing the “serious” tags from Reddit right about now. Or maybe the Out of the Loop subreddit

Exactly! I almost said something to that effect but decided my comment was getting a little long. God just left figuring out science to all these nerds he created 😂

I know this is just a meme, but I’ll share something I recently learned since I find it fascinating.

The oceans started out as freshwater! Water evaporated from them, rained down as freshwater and formed into rivers and streams, and the process of flowing picked up trace amounts of salt from the ground and riverbeds. These rivers eventually dumped their ever-so-slightly salty water into the ocean. Then, the tiny tiny tiny bit salty ocean evaporated some pure water out, leaving less water - meaning the remaining water just got a little bit saltier in comparison. This process repeated for millions of years and those tiny increments resulted in the very salty oceans we have now.

I legitimately had never heard this in my life, and my dad is a doctor. Thank you for informing me and sending me down that particular discovery rabbit hole

It’s extremely high in saturated fat and salt, and so should be eaten sparingly. That’s not to say it can’t be a part of a balanced diet, but even a small portion provides a huge chunk of your daily requirements for each of those two, as well as for calories.

Edit: Removed reference to dietary cholesterol, as this has little to no impact on health

Why wait until you’re not at work?

Yes!! Thank you. And the number of people who defend its use here on Lemmy is honestly a little alarming.

Before they come pouring in here, yes, I’m aware there are legitimate uses this way. But most of the time in casual conversation - nah, you sound gross.

Ah gotcha. Drinking chocolate is also an unfamiliar term to me, though I’m fairly certain I can guess what it means in American English: hot chocolate

Is this some sort of European joke that I’m too American to understand?
