Love the Brazilian garbage collector! Yes, wave that rainbow flag, Barbie!
Pro Tip: I thaw my turkey overnight in an ice chest. Just place frozen turkey in ice chest in morning, cover with cold tap water, leave it in the garage, and by the next morning it will be safely thawed and ready to cook.
Of course we're still evolving. Just don't expect "X-men" to all of sudden start showing up. I think there's a few things that slow our evolution down: war, genocide, abortion. That last one can be a bit controversial and it's not meant to be used as an argument against. It's just that on a global scale, anything that impacts the introduction of new humans on the planet can also have an impact on their genetic makeup.
Happy World Toilet Day everyone!
Sure, but it seems easier to me to simply put it in the refrigerator
Governor Hot Wheels has declared that crosswalks in Texas cannot be decorated in support of any group (insert marginalized group, I'm sure).
But it does my heart good to see businesses adding rainbows and other "group identity" colors or symbols to their spaces that Hot Wheels can't control.
Yes, the higher heat density of water soaks the cold out of the turkey faster than the lower density of air. It's not always about "easy," sometimes a geek has to flex geek muscle.
Don't forget food insecurity, lack of health care, lack of pre-maternal and new mom&baby care, lack of childhood shelter, poor education and poor work opportunities, greed, hate, and bigotry, as massive changes to human evolution, since they, too, cause death without any awareness of ecological niche.
Because you thought about this deeply, right? Before you came up with three super-simple issues, one of which will land with a splat like a... mud pie.
