An intergalactic golf course where you hit the ball through the Stargate.

EDIT: ON THE OTHER STARGATE THERES A MECHANICAL IRIS THAT OPENS AND CLOSES IN CADENCE LIKE AT MINI GOLF

Do you have any rock climbing gyms near you? Could get a punch card to one.

Terry Pratchett posited that the shortest measurable amount of time is the New York second - the time between the traffic light turning green and the car behind you honking.

It's taken a while for me to get to the point where I'll write a comment, and think "do I really want to kick this potential hornets nest?" And delete the comment.

I find myself having a much better time hanging out and interacting with the folks in the asklemmy communities versus those in political threads.

Important question: sorbet or ice cream/gelato?

[-] papertowels@lemmy.one 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It's a fairly expensive treat, but Jenny's makes a dairy free pint that's coffee sorbet mixed with delightful coconut cream.

The coffee sorbet section is very bright and tangy, unlike any coffee gelato or ice cream I've ever had before. It juxtaposes really well with the creaminess of the coconut cream.

Usually I work on a pint over the course of weeks, having a few spoonfuls at a time. I demolished this within two days haha.

If someone puts my cast iron in the dishwasher the cast iron will still outlive them

Fairly big. Main issue is the house is really old so there's a good amount of extra stuff that I'm opting to get. I think I got quotes as low as 28k from some companies, so the rivian would be 3 of those haha.

Tbf the 50% that voted for trump aren't here, plain and simple, so that's why you don't see engagement with them.

The only political engagement you'll see here on Lemmy shifts overwhelmingly left for all parties, so you'll see mostly squabbling between various left factions.

Well here's a comment from someone I was talking to that was politically engaged yet arguing that folks might as well not vote.

I'm not going into the thinking behind it, but it's certainly happening.

Being politically "engaged" on Lemmy doesn't mean much in terms of ensuring voter participation. I've seen plenty of folks with a "democrats have to earn my vote" sentiment. That very much seemed to play out given the much lower voter participation for Democrats this year.

Yup, I feel that. My "new" car purchase this year was a used 2015 Nissan leaf that was like 6k. It baffles me how my colleagues budget their money. A rivian?? Son, that's the cost of a new roof.

EDIT: I don't know new car prices so I had to look it up. It's actually almost the cost of two new roofs! The high end model is a down payment for a nice house in my market!
