  • Baked potato wedges

    1. Slice potatoes into 8ths, 12ths or 16ths (depending on the size of the potato.)
    2. In a large bowl, combine some olive oil with paprika, garlic powder and salt (or whatever spice mix pleases you.)
    3. Rub the oil + spice mixture onto each wedge and arrange them on a baking tray.
    4. Bake at 450° for 20 minutes, flip them, then bake at 450° for another 15 minutes.

    If done right, they’ll be crispy on the outside, moist and fluffy on the inside, and they’re excellent finger food. Total prep time is about 10 minutes (plus baking time, obviously.)





  • That doesn’t surprise me; I think the overlap between internet memesters and people who live in his area and are wanting taxidermy done is probably very small. Ad virality is probably only too valuable if it’s a product people can buy “as a joke” and post Tiktoks (or vines, I guess, at that point) of themselves showing off for laughs.










  • You shouldn’t be objecting to taxes. Taxes are good - that’s how public services get funded, for example, and social programs, lunches for kids, medical care for people who can’t afford it… All of these are examples of good uses of taxes, and if we lowered taxes to minimal levels, all of these things are what would get cut.

    What you should be objecting to is the egregious spending on things like corporate handouts, subsidies for sectors that shouldn’t be getting them, endless wars and utterly insane military budgets, executives contributing billions of dollars to their own slush funds in the name of “peace”…

    Basically, corruption and warmongering - that’s the umbrella this all falls under, generally speaking.

    So what you then should ask yourself is, which party or candidate supports this behavior, and which does not? Vote for the one that does not.




  • I think about this a lot. So many technologies that we have, if we could trust everyone involved to be acting in humanity’s best interest, would be amazing. If we didn’t have to guard our personal data like Fort Knox, there’s so many great things we could do with extensive connectedness. If we didn’t have to doubt the sincerity of everyone who promotes a service or product, everything would be so much better.

    We can’t have any of those things, because humans are shitty, and are as a whole just in it for themselves.
