  • I’ve always done protein powder first, then add liquid and doing it the other way around sounds like blasphemy.

    Never get any clumps either!

    Dry powder on top of a liquid is pure insanity, next you’ll tell me you add milk to a bowl of cereal before the cereal

    But from there, there is actually much debate about which order of combining is best. Some say that adding dry into wet leads to clumps of dry ingredients floating in the batter, while others say that actually the opposite, adding wet to dry, leads to, well, clumps.

    It would appear that the jury is still out, and everyone despises clumps. But one thing is definitely true: It’s much harder to successfully add dry ingredients into wet ingredients neatly. That order tends to lead to a giant puff of flour wafting toward the ceiling, and settling all over the counters, while a steady, viscous stream of wet ingredients will instead narrowly ribbon its way down into the bowl containing dry ingredients, and nowhere else.




  • So where exactly on the internet are you that’s bot free?

    News articles are pumping out AI stories, websites chat help is often AI bots, social media is literally a bot farm with human spectators.

    Unless you are reading blogs from people you know who aren’t familiar with chat GPT, or you’re entirely online for small/niche discussion groups, I’d say you’re exposed to far more AI content than you realize.

    I’m not suggesting everything is fake bot content with some people mixed in yet, but in 5 years it probably will be.

    Much harder for people to organize, or even get exposed to reality, if their digital experience is a walled garden of pushed bot content.


  • Go to any of the “question” subreddits (AITA, TIFU, AskReddit, Two Hot Takes etc etc) and tell me that 95% of the content isn’t posts by LLM. Claiming its a throwaway is an easy way to hide the fact that it’s a new user with no post history, only difference is now they interact with users to get better understanding of where social lines are drawn.

    Every single one has a username like danger -skyscraper-1376 and is obviously a chat GPT scenario asking obtuse questions that normal humans wouldn’t need guidance on “my wife slept with the entire office, but we’re illegal immigrants with 15 kids and divorce isn’t an option. AITA if I want a PS5 pro that I don’t share with anyone but my alternate Partner??”

    The internet isn’t “dead” but it is a corpse marionette that tells people whatever they want to hear, gives them straw man enemies made of everything they love to hate, and convinces them everything they think and feel is absolute truth.



  • The best way to tell if it’s a false flag operation is to see how much this event will be spread in the Russian media.

    They’ve lost tons of equipment and had bombings deep in Russian territory, mostly affecting their oil production which could be perceived locally as Russian military inferiority.

    So when this starts being on blast for every channel and frequency - you can be sure it’s a false flag.

    If they bury this like any other Russian military failing, then it’s probably real.

    Edit: ISIS claims responsibility, but Russia is still trying to blame Ukraine, which is kind of a false flag?



  • Regardless of your personal actions or beliefs, you are being lumped in with extremists. If that confuses you because you personally feel innocent, there is an expression that goes something like

    “If there are 9 people at a table and a Nazi sits and eats with them, there are 10 Nazis as the table.”

    Tolerating or being indifferent to abhorrent behaviour is the same as rewarding/endorsing abhorrent behaviour.

    As for the definition of evangelicals, there’s the literal definition

    “Evangelicalism (/ˌiːvænˈdʒɛlɪkəlɪzəm, ˌɛvæn-, -ən-/), also called evangelical Christianity or evangelical Protestantism, is a worldwide interdenominational movement within Protestant Christianity that emphasizes the centrality of sharing the “good news” of Christianity, being “born again” in which an individual experiences personal conversion, as authoritatively guided by the Bible, God’s revelation to humanity.[1][2][3][4][5] The word evangelical comes from the Greek word for “good news” (euangelion).[6]”

    And then there is the applied practice of evangelicals who spend considerable wealth influencing politics to turn America (and the world) into a theocratic state with the goal of converting everyone and doing away with anyone who resists their goals.

    They are uncompromising because they believe they act on God’s will giving them unquestionable holy authority to act as they see fit as long as it pushes their narrative and goals.

    It’s not my job to educate you on your own religion, if you’re lost as to why anyone would despise evangelicals even though “they’re not all like that” that is up to you to reconcile.

    There might be a subtle difference between a front lines Nazi and Hitler on the ‘innocence scale’ if you want to split hairs, but to everyone outside that group, a Nazi is a Nazi (who were all essentially evangelicals as well, surprise surprises)

    if you don’t believe me, here’s something to read since you like proof/evidence so much, but I doubt you’ll ever challenge your own beliefs.


  • That’s because it is the closest thing to fascism. Especially when religion bleeds into politics.

    Don’t be shocked that your faith of complete, uncompromising, control of human behaviour based on a collective, personal conclusion that you have all the answers to everything is perceived for what it is.

    Believe whatever you want in your own head, and live your life according to whatever belief system you want. The second you try to extend the control you place on yourself to anyone else is the line between faith and fascism

    If you don’t believe in abortions? Fine.

    If you believe others should follow your example? Fine.

    If you force others to follow your idealogies through control of legal/political systems? not fine

    Y’all never seem to understand, nobody cares what you do as long as you keep self imposed control to yourself. But apparently the whole point is to “spread the love” through non-optional participation, which is what makes you so dangerous.

    If your faith really was all that goodness you claim, people would actually want to join! But they don’t. So you force them. Jesus would be so proud ❤️
