Stackable prep bowls for the kitchen. They're about $6 a piece and I have eight of them. I got sick of constantly running out of bowls when I was doing things like chopping lots of veggies for a soup or marinating tofu. I expect to reach the end of my "usefulness" before they do.
Similarly, I have a set of 12 rounded stacking mixing bowls. I use them a lot for tossed salads, but they are also useful for dough.
Oh, I totally get it, I loved it too. I just don't think it will stick in quite the same way when people don't have lyrics to attach to the song. Like, I can't play it at karaoke night.
The Hapsburgs, a Spanish noble house that held the Spanish throne, made a practice of the inverse of this with uncle-niece marriages to keep power in the house. This was the closest marriage the church would allow. The generations of inbreeding produced the distinct "Hapsburg jaw". Eventually that led to the poor, ugly, absurdly inbred Charles II of Spain. And remember, those portraits are official portraits that paint him in the best possible light. He died without an heir, ending the Hapsburg monarchy.
I don't think that one outlasts the next couple decades. Yeah, it's fun and the lyrics are weird, but Romanian isn't all that widely spoken, so the vast majority of the world population cannot sing it.
The Democratic Party is a big tent party. There is far left, center left, center, and center right. And of course the left-right spectrum is always going to be reductive. Joe Biden has been observed to track the center of the party as a whole over time, so he would be a center left politician.
Flashlights are small and cheap. Drop one down a crack? Oh, well, at least it was my $30 flashlight instead of my $800 cell phone. They also can be turned down to improve battery life. Mine has days of battery life at its lowest.
Right pocket: Minimalist wallet, keys, flashlight, pocket knife, mask
The flashlight is a ACEBEAM Rider RX with an AA-sized rechargeable lithium battery that can be swapped for AA in an emergency. The keys include a Yubikey and thumb drive with Ventoy. Because Portland is at risk for a megathrust earthquake, I carry a whistle in case I am trapped under debris.
I also have a pouch with office supplies, eyeglass cleaner, and so on.
Yeah, it always kinda weirds me out that "killing women and children" is the rallying cry in most conflicts. Civilians. Killing civilians. That's what's bad.
Welcome to the world of abusing the shit out of Ant. My first full time job was developing Ant in unholy ways. Tens of thousands of lines of Ant at least, doing significant logic. If-then-else, for loops, math, procedures, date-time math. I stuck it out for a year. It was a year too long.
There's a history here. Back with Jimmy Carter, he had a primary challenge from Ted Kennedy. Carter won, but only by 51% to 37%. He was already having trouble of course, but it was just one more thing that hurt him and got Reagan in power. We all know how that went. So now the general practice is to clear the field for the incumbent if they choose to run for reelection. Biden hasn't been given any special out.
Trump is of course an odd case since he's not an incumbent, but his grip on the Republican Party gives him a position near to that of an incumbent. He was always by far and away the frontrunner, and every other Republican candidate was for the chattering class.
Under the Ukrainian constitution, they cannot hold an election while martial law is under effect. Much of the population (a majority?) is either displaced or in an occupied territory.
Sometimes those judgement calls have allowed moderation that is at the very least poorly defined in the rules. I posted one comment complaining about a local protest about the current Palestine-Israel conflict that trashed my university's library and shuttered it for the next few months. I got a delete-ban over that for a "CHUD Opinion", which is very much not in the rules. And that is far from the first time that I've run into unwritten rules that feel like they're putting a thumb on the scales.
