Honestly, I like this version better than the real "Midwest", which isn't western at all, and hasn't been for well over a century. Hell, there were forts on the west coast in 1792.

Fully supportive!

Our gas stove. Unreliable AF, and has a tendency to cook unevenly. The oven also fucking sucks. Multi-thousand dollar premium PoS. I miss my resistive electric stoves.

On the other hand, the air fryer never burns things and almost never has issues.

Both of you are right and wrong, it's not so black and white.

You absolutely can make friends, chat with people at the bus stop, strike up convos at bars, the local ski resort, bike park, etc. Friendships can naturally blossom into relationships (or remain friendships, which is healthy and natural too).

You can't approach people and immediately ask them out, it feels weird and unappreciated (and that goes both ways, I've had a complete 180° role reversal and it was still weird and gross).

You're young, you have plenty of time, and honestly the weirdest thing about all this is that your parents are worried you're gay, like there's something wrong with that. There's barely any differences between genders, people overhyped the shit out of it in church, tbh.

Anyways, any% dating really doesn't work, and I feel like your parents should know that. Don't even try for dating, everyone can sense desperation. Just dgaf and focus on having fun and making friends. Love will naturally evolve out of good friendships.

My thoughts exactly. You never want things to double down and become more toxic, even if it's smaller. You have to neutralize the toxin. The dose is what kills you.

*28 on flat terrain, full charge, light rider. With wind, a heavy ulock, groceries, and a steep hill, you'll be pedaling at 14 mph while cars roar past you doing 35. Class III bikes are needed for hilly cities, particularly because few put bike lanes on steep hills.

Ea kills everything it touches.

You could always just pull out the fuse on the GPS/network module, or remove the module itself. When my eye tracker in my car annoyed me, I just pulled the unit out and put the cladding back. It fixed the false positive issue it kept having with sunglasses.

I meant more in the long arc of "being a place that values life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" like most modern nations.

Other countries need to hammer republican states with tariffs and boycotts. Since they control the government, it's the only way they will relent on economic sanctions and ICE nonsense.

Or...

The West Coast needs to form its own trading bloc and reform ICE, as the former rules don't seem to apply to anything anymore. We'll continue to uphold traditional American values from 1776-2015, values held before all of this New Right horseshit.

I've really been enjoying chia seeds recently. They are great in smoothies. Spinach too, it's essentially undetectable so you can just add a handful of either. Works great in any type of smoothie, and feels like "dessert" even when it's just fruits and veggies and seeds. Plus, you can freeze (or buy) frozen produce, or freeze what you can't eat, so it keeps for ages.

Unflavored yogurt tends to work best, imo.
