OMG. I can't believe the marketing department was that inept. Tragic

I don't think this is about purity tests so much as popularity. People don't want to vote for him. It doesn't matter if he's pure or not.

As food supply dwindles you're forced to cook with more and more spoiled ingredients. Leading to sickness and hallucinations on top of the strange supernatural influence. Sleep won't come any more. Whatever is on the ship makes it impossible to rest. Vision is blurry and hearing is off. Which voices are real, which are the ghosts, which are purely your own? The wind has stopped and the ship hasn't moved is a week as the waves rock. People who you thought had jumped overboard are back making requests for dishes from their childhood. Spices you don't remember stocking and couldn't possibly be on board turn up in unexpected places. This looks like saffron. Does saffron taste like that all the time or is this something else entirely?

Too much US election content on Lemmy?
I come in here specifically to catch up on US election coverage. It's better than other news feeds I have. I totally understand why it's annoying but I also appreciate it for myself. People seem to be more real in the comments compared to other communities. The articles at the top aren't what I find elsewhere. Sorry you have to work so hard to curate your experience though.

Cash discount is the way to go. Price is the price but offering discounts is fine.

How do you stay just friends?
You take some time. Heal up. Meet a new woman. Fall for her. Notice you feel different about this woman now. Then you can try being friends again if you both still want to.

Is 0.3 quarts extra too much oil in a car?
Not pro knowl just knuckle dragging mechanic advice: run the car for a bit. Rev it up. Turn it off. Pull the dip stick. If there is no foaming you're fine.

Okay, Biden isn’t popular. But his policies sure are.

Biden regarding Palatine is bad. Trump is worse.
What other policy are you referring to?

Favorite TTRPGs
Apocalypse World 2nd Ed. has given me the most delight in the fewest sessions of any TTRPG. It takes a group willing to follow the rules though. If you try to play it the way you play D&D it won't work so keep that in mind.

Nate Silver: Joe Biden should drop out

What would happen if Biden straight up announced: "I'm not able to serve another 4 years. I'm passing my whole campaign to <insert Biden's pick here>. I trust as does my whole administration." Is that not allowed?

Forget star signs, what key do you press to wake up your computer from sleep?
Esc, t, or I move the mouse. Depends on my goal when I'm waking it up.

Thank you for writing that so I don't have to.
The end of the petrodollar is complicated. On the one hand it reenforced American hegemony and propped up US financial institutions and instruments. On the otherhand it was quite unfair and sometimes unpopular even among US allies.
The end of it means US finance will have to work harder to stay competitive and the US has to trade currency on (slightly) more equal footing but it might lower international resentment.

Making friends in adulthood
I'm very extroverted. I have no trouble making new friends that are interested in a hobby or like to meet up at a certain place. In the 24 years since I graduated high school haven't met a new friend who just wants to meet up, hang out, and do whatever because life is more fun with friends. Back in my school days I was pretty bad at making new friends but the friends I did make were legit. I still keep in touch with them and we don't need a plan to have fun.
If anyone has any insights or tips on how to make solid friends as an adult I'd love to hear it.
