It's hilarious how out of touch Republican rhetoric is becoming considering there are a sizeable number of Democrats who think the party leadership and people like Harris, Biden, and Clinton are essentially right-wing politicians at this point.

Calling them communists or socialists is quite the joke when they'd be more than happy to bail out corporations, protect predatory businesses, or pass draconian laws at the expense of the populace.

It's also fun to take the wind of out of the sails of far-right individuals online by pointing this out when they rant about the "socialist, communist, Marxists" running for office.

In the case of a grocery store, they'd have an actual physical presence in the state along with revenue and employees, so I (a total laymen) don't see how that's comparable to a website like Lemmy. Even PornHub would be different IMO since they have paid content and the transaction would be happening in Texas. A site like Lemmy earns nothing from its users and doesn't sell anything so it seems like it'd be quite the stretch to hold them accountable for the actions of some kid on the other side of the country (or planet) since Texas jurisdiction ends at the border of Texas.

I don't know if that hold true here judging by the picture on the box. It looks like brown gravy.

Here's another good one with some slo-mo action. You can see it's just a normal pot and what looks to be a single coffee mug full of water. The resulting fireball is massive.

It's a lot more aggressive than what comes through in their description. It can create a giant fireball since the water boils instantly on contact and causes the burning oil to fling up into the air almost like a flame thrower.

They forgot to put out all the antennas, and you know how slow big infrastructure projects can be.

As for what it's for, it could be anything.

I'm pretty sure that's what Bill Gates will be using to activate the 5G nanobots that we all received in the COVID vaccine.

*His video proof that they weren't recording video at the cemetery.

One of the most moronic claims I've heard in a long time.

If you do get one, stay away from Traeger. They were sold to some Chinese company years ago and are extremely overpriced garbage now.

Agreed that being drunk and disorderly in public is wrong but airports are a powder keg that probably pushes people to drink more than normal considering passengers are treated like cattle in a highly restricted environment.

Damn bro, women can be surgeons too. It's not 1890 anymore.

Yeah they'll likely end up melting once global temperatures rise high enough.
