I often think about how amazing it is to have indoor plumbing. Not having to pump water out of the ground manually or worse, having to drop a bucket in a well is such a luxury. Not to mention being able to take a shit without having to go outside

A truly majestic bird
Do you like down votes? Because this is how you get down votes.
How is Wukong? I haven’t heard much about it
I always love when people pretend to be mystified that someone has trouble running programs on Linux when I, a non Linux user, see plenty of examples of people having trouble getting programs to run on Linux scrolling through “Everything” on Lemmy
I’m sure Google employees get Premium for free
Yes! I came here to see if anyone had mentioned this. My favorite fantasy series when I was a teenager. I also wouldn’t mind his Incarnations of Immortality series turned into a show either, but Amber would work better due to the humor and settings
Gotta love it when simping for Israel gets you fired.
What’s green and red and goes round and round?
Just an example of something outdated that’s not needed anymore
Welp. Considering it does none of those three things, maybe it’s time for them to go the way of the buggy whip
This was a “yes or no” question
Tater tots
Mustard is the classier option
I used to think “chaos” had the same “ch” as “church” when I was a kid. Don’t know why I never heard it spoken aloud by someone earlier than I did.
But the one that I find inexcusable is Southern US people who pronounce “jalapeno” with a “j” and “n” instead of an “ha” and “ñ” even though they know better. Sounds so willfully ignorant
Depends on what part of Alaska you’re talking about. South Central is all connected by a road system (yes, it’s paved) but there really aren’t many alternative routes, so if there’s a bad car accident or a landslide, you’re effectively cut off.
Another difference is the distance between places. When I travel to the lowered 48 I’m always reminded of that fact as pretty much every few miles is an exit to a new town but they all seem to have the same shitty strip/outlet malls and chain restaurants, like carbon copies of the next town over.
Here there tend to be small communities along the highways but all the communities seem to have a distinct vibe and flavor as other than a few pockets of larger communities there aren’t many chains until you get to the more populated areas.
Plus no billboards obstructing the views as you drive along the highways so it’s very scenic most of the time. Mountains everywhere for most of the road system.
Outside the road system the communities tend to be pretty small and very rural as they’re usually native Alaskan villages or small towns along the panhandle in the South East. They’re close to BC so very similar climate and topography.
Along the coast are many fishing towns that all tend to be similar. Harbor, bars near said harbor, churches, and small homes. With a general store and maybe a library.
Up north is where the climate sucks most of the year, except for about 2 weeks in the summer. Not many people other than Alaskan Natives are brave enough to live up there full time. I’ve worked up there on a 2 week rotation schedule but if I had to be up there full time, I’d go insane.
Outside the cities most people will carry weapons. In the city fewer do, but bear spray is the go-to bear deterrent in the city parks and trails
That’s typically less than a beer per hour. I get a buzz if they’re IPAs or other high APV beers, but otherwise I just like the mellowing effects
And if my grandma had wheels she’d be a bus
