You know k-pop has gone mainstream when you hear it at the CVS as you’re waiting for your blood pressure medication.
It is also excellent for inexpensively bulking up dinners even when you’re not meat free.
There are a lot of recipes that can be done half TVP and half meat without sacrificing flavor or texture.
It’s a very inexpensive and easily stored protein source for both the vegetarians and the poors :)

I was shopping for a hummingbird feeder for a gift earlier this year and almost all of them bragged that they were bee-proof!
I had to go out of my way to get a (pottery, handmade) one that wasn’t.

I had an interesting side effect when I first went on Wellbutrin where after a couple of weeks it was like food lost all the special connections in my brain.
Like homemade Mac and cheese was just made out of ingredients instead of being the distilled essence of comfort.

The Federal Motor Carrier Administration (FMCSA) changed guidelines in September. DACA recipients, pending asylum applicants and refugees used to qualify for a “non-domiciled” CDL if they passed all the other requirements.
Now it’s not just no, but retroactively no.
Disgusting cruelty.

I think I just sprained my neck with that eyeroll.

I think it’s also called “TVP” - texturized vegetable protein - and can often be bought by the scoop in health food stores/coops.
You can buy it in different flavors, too - like ham or sausage.

Oh no!

I don’t think so, but I could definitely be wrong.
It is my understanding that they work by physically slowing digestion so that you have to moderate your intake heavily or bear the pain and vomiting as well as doing some sort of hormone magic that makes you feel full/not crave.

When I lost half my taste right down the middle of the tongue due to Bell’s Palsy (…3 times…) I found myself eating mostly for texture (raw green peppers) and nutritional impact vs effort (soup).

I’ve used this kind, they’re a good alternative to a hot water bottle on a cold night, too

That is a wonderful idea. That, civics and sex ed and American children might have a chance against this trash fire.

Joe’s got a way with words, I’ve enjoyed his work for many years. You absolutely SHOULD be proud 🌈

I went as a lamp as a surprise for my wife, who had bought a moth costume. Yes, I made the hat 😁

I hope that you get a smile from it.

I’m no design scientist, but that logo is just hideous.

They’re not even trying to save the perfectly good and possibly historic windows or anything, just destroying it all.

I’m not excessively visually impaired- just have to wear very strong glasses - but I really value the context that can be added with alt text as well.
It’s often easier to read than text on a screenshot, too. Much easier!

Very true. The whole Scion line was marketed as ‘no pressure, no haggle, no extra fees’ and aimed at first car buyers and seniors with limited income.
I’m not a car person myself, and I really did appreciate that.

I loved my XB. I’d still be driving it if I hadn’t hit a pothole so hard it totaled it.
Sounds like a joke but unfortunately not kidding, this hole in the road was so deep my tire went in completely and it bent the frame.
It was very reliable and loved before that… though I did change the oil.

My microwave says “enjoy!” When the time is up.
Machines have gotten much more cheerful since I was a kid.

Clever bet-hedging

My mother, over 70 years old and never voted in her life because “it doesn’t matter anyway” attended today in a brand new inflatable t-Rex costume.

This gives me so much hope.

Now you’re raking in the hipster cred 😉
