People like my dad, who grew up in the 70s and early 80s, still jump at the mention of the dirty evil C word

Fuck, parts of my family have definitely been here longer than most current politician's families, but apparently I'm a domestic terrorist.

There was a bigger turnout for our hastily organized last minute pride in a rural red state town.

Steam box =/= normal gaming pc

My 5 year old pre built acer laptop is around the same price and specs, and only the cpu is better on the steam square.

Comparing the release of ps5 with current day stuff seems weird. Why not compare with the launch of valve? Or personal computers in general?

..... People actually do app subscriptions? Not a meme, I'm actually asking because that sounds crazy to me.

It's a sawyer, and both marketing materials and real world testing say otherwise. Personal experience also tells me my filter is keeping me healthy while my neighbors don't even bother listening to boil advisories.

For drinking pure water, we use a brita tap filter, and a sawyer filter straw, and just have it gravity feed into a pitcher. The pitcher usually doesn't last a full day.

For cooking, we just use the tap filter and a cheap gravity filter with a reservoir. No need to go all out when you're boiling the water lol

The Sawyer filter can be cleaned by forcing distilled water through in reverse, it unclogs the straw/membrane filter, but it only works for so long. Luckily the sawyer still works like a charm after thousands of gallons.

Disclaimer: I have not been testing for bacteria or other contaminants, I just go by taste and swap filters when something tastes off. I have no proof this filters everything, but neighbors have gotten sick around times when boil advisories go out, when we've been healthy the whole time. Could just be coincidence.

I've been using a water filter to filter my tap water for years, because tap water tastes nasty.

WHO'S LAUGHING NOW, BITCHES! I mean, not me because things still suck, but at least I'm reasonably sure I won't get a disease after my city reduced funding for water treatment.

Immigrants are both lazy slobs that mooch off society, AND taking all our jobs.

The enemy is both weak and strong.

Either that or it will become a toxic cesspool that you can smell for kilometers.

As someone who used to like the pool, I hope this happens and stays that way until we sort our shit out.

 

They aren't around anymore as of this morning, but they liked the hoodie and hat and I thought someone might like to see two doggos.

They were both good girls and I miss them.
