i love saying that germany should have been turned into israel, but ultimately ethnostates shouldn’t exist. if the USSR won the nuclear weapon race, Stalin wouldn’t have had to stop at berlin and we’d have a multiethnic germany and Palestine and Jewish ppl would thrive in both

but in reality germany should have given reparations to Jewish people in the form of massive tracts of land and have full equality with all other ppl there, becoming full members of german society for the first time in history. Jewish ppl had a unique position in europe as an oppressed people and giving them a state outside of europe and basically telling them to gtfo kind of shows how they were seen as “not authentically european”

tbh they should make seasonal covid vaccines but call it the “SARS vaccine”. but i think chuds would catch on eventually. maybe if they use this discovery to make a new protein-mRNA conjugate vaccine they can say it’s not an mRNA vaccine and they could sit down with trump and stroke his ego till he goes on tv and says it’s a really good, safe vaccine. but even then, antivax ppl are very set in their ways

or we could have a revolution and make full vaccinations mandatory

the discovery in the paper is a good treatment for ppl with immune disorders. but this discovery can also help make a better vaccine that activates the immune system as well as the current mRNA vaccines but has improved ability to cause ur immune system to kill covid. but it’s also a long ways away bc a lot of testing is required to ensure it’s safe and more effective than current vaccines

this article discusses monoclonal antibodies, which is a great treatment option for immunocompromised people. but monoclonal Ab treatment is more expensive by an order(s) of magnitude than a vaccine.

for general use in the population of ppl with complete immune systems, this research could be relevant in vaccine design. the antibodies in this paper bind to surface proteins on the virus. the mRNA in current covid vaccines is really good at activating our immune system, so future vaccines could contain a conjugate of the protein appended to the mRNA to utilize the immunogenicity (its ability to stimulate immune system) of the mRNA and the efficacy and effectiveness of the protein

edit: that being said, we are years from this work being used in an approved vaccine. you want to make sure the immune response to these conjugate vaccines doesn’t provoke deadly amounts of inflammation, whether the Abs it produces work against the protein or if the mRNA “hijacks” the response, what kind of immune response it produces, etc.

you can use the “synthetic” setting on clothes irons for polyester and nylon (flags won’t really be made of a different plastic bc these are the cheapest reliable cloth alternatives). ~~i think u can use higher heat on them than silk and satin. p sure the synthetic setting is half of the max heat~~

edit: just checked my clothes iron and the “nylon” setting is actually below the “silk” setting. regardless, u can use the “nylon” setting on a flag no problem as long as you use the steam often enough

damn that’s a long ferment! sounds really good tho! i just did my first batch with habaneros, serranos, garlic, onion, carrots, and a few spices. i did a 3 month ferment and it came out really good.

im thinking abt making a new batch and fermenting for a year. how different is the flavor with longer ferments?

wasn’t it called femboyfishing?

 

the server is intended for hexbear and lemmygrad users. to get on the allow-list and get the ip, just dm me. i do a quick vetting of acct so if ur acct is new or ur a lurker you’ll have to wait while i figure some stuff out (ill update this post when we’re accepting new users and lurkers)

the modpack were using is here

thank you to the owner of the server for being so generous and hosting us! and thank you to the two users who worked on the modpack!

happy minecrafting gaymers!!

 

recently inherited these cast irons that are at least 40 years old. they were sitting in a cabinet for a few years and nasty with rust and crusty, old seasoning. i scrubbed the shit out of them with steel wool and lots of soap, then applied 4 coats of new seasoning! feel free to roast my seasoning, i have no idea if it’s good since it’s my first cast iron and would like to know.

for each coat of seasoning i just wiped the pan with peanut oil then set the oven at 435F for 20 minutes, then 460F for 10 minutes

ive been using only stainless steel for a couple months and im abt to give away my nonstick cookware. nonstick cookware is counter-revolutionary

trump and adin ross in a cybertruck listening to music. very romantic

 

the results of the poll on this post show that modded has won 14-12. we will still ensure that mods are not resource intensive so that our users with low spec computers are able to enjoy the server too! the owner is working with another user with experience with this stuff to make a custom modpack. will update with a post asap! in the meantime, if you havent dm'd me already and want to play, send me a dm w ur MC IGN and ill forward it to the owner. bridget

 

in the announcement post for this, i lacked critical information regarding the mods. the modpack being used is Create Extra, which appears to be mostly performance, minor aesthetic, and QOL mods. it shouldn’t result in a performance decrease compared to vanilla

if you want to check out the mods contained in the modpack, here is a link

so again, the options are vanilla+ (server-side mods only) or modded (server- and client-side mods)

an-tifa for vanilla+

bridget for modded

voting will end Monday, Aug 5 at 5 PM UTC (1 PM EST)

sorry for the confusion shy

also this server will be pirate-friendly

 

EDIT: im creating a new post just for voting bc i did not have the proper information to share with you in order to cast an informed vote, now i know more abt the modpack

a user here was kind enough to host a server for all of hexbear (and lemmygrad too)! ill make an update post when the server is up, but in the meantime, dm me with your MC username bc the server will be using an allow-list. i will be vetting accts to ensure no wreckers join (sorry new users and lurkers, maybe we can figure out an alternate vetting process for you). ill be the middlewoman for the allow-list for optimum opsec, so the server owner will remain anonymous and i won’t share the association between HB usernames/MC username with the owner.

also, if ur interested, you can vote in the comments for whether the server should be vanilla+ (server-side mods only) or modded (both client- and server-side mods)

an-tifa for vanilla+

bridget for modded

voting will end in 3 days

EDIT: for those asking, yes it will be pirate friendly, and the modpack will be lightweight and “should run on a potato” according to the server owner

 

the president mentioned setting up roadblocks bc the company, Energy Fuels, failed to fulfill its promises of notifying the tribe before sending shipments of uranium through their territory. the tribe did not know abt the shipment until the trucks were already gone

i tried getting into ESO like 4 years ago but i got bored, but ive been playing it every day (a lot of the time just logging in for the daily login reward) for like 2 months. i normally hate MMOs but the elders scrolls universe and combat mechanics make me really like it. also the economy is surprisingly not broken after over 10 years of this game existing.

ive been getting into trading to make gold. there are a limited number of traders and each trader can only support one guild which helps limit the number of merchant players. also, every transaction sends 3.5% of the proceeds to the guild and 3.5% goes poof, and this helps prevent inflation. but there are some mats that are crazy expensive. ive been doing alchemy to make money and reagents are normally 100-500 gold each, but columbine is on average 2000-2500 each bc they are a necessary ingredient in a lot of popular pots. anyways, i just spent 1M gold on 600 columbine bc it was a good deal, but i only had 1.2M so im kinda broke until i sell these. it should take less than a week tho and my revenue will be almost 2M (profit is only 350K, but i have most of the reagents already, so ill end the week with 1.7M)

its a fun game! if ur into elder scrolls, get it! there's a bundle for $60 that gets you the base game plus every single expansion. DLC is separate from expansions tho, but if you want to get into trading you have to get ESO+ for the unlimited mat storage. ESO+ comes with all the DLC, so you can buy the $60 base game + expansion packs, then spend at most $15/month on ESO+. i did 3 months so it was $14/month, but when it lapses i might drop $130 for the year (<$11/month) bc i got a bunch of steam gift cards several months back and havent used them all.

so i just started hrt and im doing diy E monotherapy injections. im abt to do my 5th weekly injection. im planning on lowering my dosage bc i think i started too high. i was aiming to suppress my T fast but i think it happened already bc my cum is clear and watery and i ejaculate a small volume. my first week i was planning on doing estradiol enantate 11 mg every 14 days, but i didn’t like the huge difference between peak and trough that it would cause so i have been doing 5 mg weekly but that should put me around 300 pg/mL which i dont think is uncommon for monotherapy but it’s working so well i think a lower dose would be better.

i was considering doing 2 mg weekly enantate injections plus 2 mg daily oral E bc ur liver turns some estradiol into estrone and there’s some evidence that E1 helps feminize. is this a reasonable regimen? would planned parenthood prescribe me oral E as well as a testosterone cream/gel to prevent penis atrophy and help with performance ive been struggling since starting hrt? planned parenthood is prob my best option in my area. would they prescribe me 6 months of E if i act like im doing two 2 mg daily instead of one? like they prescribe for 90 days but it will last me 180

 

Minnesota keeps its place as the least bad state

 

after he was bullied into dropping out, i have been radicalized into voting blue no matter who. which is why im voting for biden and not whoever stabs him in the back by running in his stead. if you vote for kamala, thats p much a vote for trump. any vote other than for biden is a vote for trump. im camapaigning for biden right now, going out and telling ppl they are bigots if they dont vote for biden. if they say "but he dropped out" i will call them russian shills
