Your entire house is made out of limestone? Or you have limestone veneer

We should go back to building things with rocks

Could be almost more impactful, shutting down retail and food service on a Saturday.

“Global” in the sense meaning broad in scope. In this case, not spending money anywhere for those of us in the US.

When I cook onions, I typically start with that and continually add things to it, including the wilted mushrooms. Cooking mushrooms in a dry pan doesn’t really leave any water, it all boils off and I wipe out any remainder prior to the onions

I almost always cook mushrooms in a dry pan first to get them to release their water, then set them aside to add to the dish at a later point. So I disagree

That’s because the polar vortex slid off the Arctic onto North America, allowing warmer air to creep northward on your side of the globe. I remember in '21, while we had record cold in the southern US, Siberia was on fire.

It’s hard to overstate how much money “2-3x what a run of the mill job makes” is over the course of a lifetime. I guess to you right now it doesn’t seem like much, but someone who makes three times more money than someone else is significantly more well off. There aren’t any wage jobs that are going to net you exponential salary growth. Your only hope there is to strike gold and found PayPal or Microsoft or something.

Anything Cajun. Jambalaya, gumbo, red beans and rice, etc

At its core this has nothing to do with Israel, the Heritage Foundation is only using that as a pretext to subvert Wikipedia. Wikipedia is at present a source of evidence-based information that often runs counter to the far-right lies they want you to believe.

Does she say that to you explicitly ? If so, ask her: If she’s just going to die, why does it matter if she’s locked out of her accounts? If she has a reason to access her accounts, she has a reason to learn how to access them.

On a mental health note, the last of Erik Erikson’s stages of development relates to old age/end of life, and the choice is between dignity or despair. If you see your mother trending toward despair, she might need help with her mental health, such as seeing a therapist.

You also might consider therapy for yourself. I get the impression you’ve got some boundary issues with your mother that you could improve. Good luck to you

It means 1) you lack the imagination to describe your ideas with any nuance and 2) you’re the kind of guy who tells other people to put themselves in danger while sitting behind your keyboard doing nothing

I can’t help but notice you’ve contributed nothing productive to this conversation. Industries and companies have carbon footprints too. A carbon footprint is how much CO2 is generated by x. OP has $10,000 and control over themselves. They’re not going to be stopping Chevron. Jesus man

These are ways to immediately reduce your carbon footprint with $10,000, which is what OP asked for. There is absolutely no “shift of responsibility” involved in deciding to stop giving natural gas manufacturers and distributors your money.

If you have any natural gas appliances in your home (like water heater, dryer, stove, oven, HVAC), transition to an electric version. Cancel your gas service.

The two examples at the beginning are completely separate examples, not rewrites of each other. The comparison is in the readability for beginners, not the content.

Sorry, didn’t realize you still needed your skin. Here, you can have it back

Variations on a theme of dundundun duuuun

This is how the average hexbear user responds. Don’t think too deeply about it, because they sure aren’t.

Beethoven’s Symphonies come to mind. His 5th and 6th symphonies really do tell stories and are very engaging.
