She didn’t build shit. She paid someone else to build a portfolio that doesn’t outperform the market, same as every billionaire.

I won’t say she isn’t smart, but I will say she can go to a work camp with the rest of them.

Yeah I’ve basically retried every food I was picky about as a child.

Turns out I like all sorts of stuff if it’s cooked right!

The vast majority of Americans don’t even know that ‘merriment’ is a word. They just know you’re supposed to say ‘Merry Christmas.’ That’s it.

Can anyone else feel sensations in their brain?

Last time I checked there aren’t nerve endings in our brain, so it should be impossible to feel sensations in my brain. However, at random times during my life, like seeing the plot twist in Fight Club for example, I’ve felt feelings in my brain. I just felt it again now while doing some intense introspection, and I just...

Anyone who has had discontinuation syndrome knows the experience of “brain zaps” - basically feels like an electric shock toy going off inside your head somewhere behind your eyes/sinuses. Is it anything like that?

Fools. By exposing them to a low enough dose over and long enough period of time you will breed a new form of super vampires, completely immune to holy water!

Fuck yes ebikes!

Not only do they slash oil demand, but manufacturing and maintaining an ebike has a fraction of the environmental impact of an electric car. Also, you can do a lot of the maintenance yourself with cheap tools and a small amount of work space. Also also, makes my ass look good~🍑

    The limit is the petrodollar, of course. Once that’s defunct the whole thing falls down.

    If you learn how to make your own patties from scratch it’s pretty cheap - or to save time you can do what I do and eat beans directly from the air fryer 🤤

    @queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

    I actually just rinse off canned beans, spray them with vegetable oil, toss em in at 400F for 8-12 minutes, then shake them in a baggie with salt and spices. Or mix them in a bowl with hot sauce. Or use them as a topping for rice. Or throw them in stir fry. Or sauteed onions and bell peppers, then put them on tortillas.

    God damn I love air fried beans

    queermunist,
    @queermunist@lemmy.ml avatar

    They’re junk food and that’s why I love them.

    It’s the same impulse that keeps me buying Takis.

    All kinds!

    Airfried garbanzo beans are great as a salty snack (generally I like to use a sweet chili seasoning) or sauteed with onions and peppers and fajita seasoning and then served on soft tortillas. Airfried pintos are great as a salty snack (chili lime or nooche is best for them) or sauteed with corn and onions and taco seasoning, and then topped with fresh tomato and lettuce and put on crunchy tortillas. Airfried black beans are great as a salty snack (just straight with salt and pepper) or just drenched in hot sauce and eat em with a spoon.

    I wasted so much of my life thinking I didn’t like beans because I’d only ever had nasty baked beans from school lunches. 😞

    Once inflammation begins in the skin, it triggers a process called hyperkeratinization, which occurs when the skin produces too many skin cells (keratinocytes) and too much protein (keratin). This causes the pore to narrow and clog initially, forming the very first type of clogged pore in acne, called a microcomedone.5

    When a pore is clogged, skin oil, called sebum, begins to build up inside of it. When there is a large enough buildup, it becomes visible to the naked eye. At this point, the acne lesion is called a comedone, more commonly known as a whitehead or blackhead.

    A lot of this is stuff I picked up over a decade of dealing with chronic and painful acne, so I’d probably have to spend an evening finding different articles lol

    But, yeah, acne comes from inside. It’s a more like an allergic reaction, where a normally helpful part of the immune system freaks the f out and causes harm. The bacteria that and normally lives harmlessly in our skin oil. And it’s not even always the cause! Sometimes bacteria doesn’t grow inside the zit at all, though it usually does and when it does it usually makes it a lot worse.

    Gosh there’s just so much stuff. Scrubbing with a cloth or using overly hot water actually make acne worse because they cause irritation, which triggers a stress response. Overly drying soaps can cause acne by drying out the skin, which can trigger a stress response. Sunlight is necessary for human life, but lots of exposure causes inflammation and stress.

    Acne.org has a lot of good info, highly recommend.

    I slather it on my face before bed as a mask. Works great to fight acne imo

    It also forms a protective barrier for your skin, so nothing can contaminate it or grow on it and you don’t lose moisture to evaporation.

    Also, pores don’t actually clog from stuff getting into them. That’s a common misconception that mostly comes from advertisements. What actually happens is your skin becomes inflamed (due to contaminants or bacterial growth or diet or hormones) and squeezes the pores shut. Blackheads aren’t dirt but are actually oxidized sebum, which is the oil your skin secretes.

    EDIT Oh! Speaking of protective barriers, I also put it on my hands and forearms before work because I handle a lot of machine oil and that irritates my skin, causing rashes and itchiness.
