Disagree with the third. Not your description, but the eat by itself part. It can be great either way, just straight or as a mayo. Though it's probably more healthy as the supliment than just by itself.

Generally this stuff exists either due to old racist laws. It was illegal to not be working in reconstruction South, and white former slave owners could offer low paying jobs to former slaves. If the former slaves refused, they could be arrested for not having jobs, and due to the exception on prisoners being slaves, they could be enslaved again legally.

Vagrancy and loitering were banned in what's called the "black codes".

I have a slight personal conundrum. I agree with thus in principle, and so when the company decided everyone would get a laptop (I prefer to work from home, and while computers exist at the office and for some field techs, plus there is a terminal server, until now I used personal 99% of the time) I was excited and happy.

On the other hand, I've done the two phones thing in the past and now I really don't feel like it. Of course, I don't want any of their MDM on my phone either, and if they start trying to enforce that I may have to bite demanding a phone too.

Either way, it should be an option to have either a company phone or reimbursement if you choose to just have your 1 phone. Containerized MDM would be nice too, since that should ostensibly mean a remote wipe only affects their data/apps and prevents personal/work from interacting.

In fact, the only ones that do tell you seem to be the ones aimed at calorie counters who still want to drink, mostly hard seltzers like WhiteClaw, Truly, etc.

White claw smaller can at 5% is 100-110 calories a can.

I assume I shouldn't play Portal or retro games either? If someone is new to gaming, the whole catalog is available to them. Just because it's old doesn't mean it isn't worth playing, especially since the system the mom has isn't top of the line and may handle those games better than new ones.

Crap, I read your comment backwards and thought you meant who the hell doesn't use kb/m. Hehe, ignore it. I'm very team controller.

I preferred it. Some people are more used to rapid movement types from a controller more than keyboard and mouse. I do use keyboard and mouse for some games, but for ones with this kinda feel in the way camera and moves work, I prefer controller. Monster Hunter is another I prefer controller on, as is FFXIV. Horizon Zero Dawn also.

Stuff like Mass Effect, Ark, Enshrouded, Deep rock, helldivers, dark tide are all mouse and keyboard.

People have different preferences and different muscle memory.

I think I like Hades more on controller too.

Which usually includes implied "follow my religious beliefs to be eligible." A big difference between personal giving and allowing a social safety net is the decision to limit who gets your money. Which I do get; I want my team dollars going to stuff that helps everyone, like welfare, education, transportation, etc, not to military industrial complex or subsidies for already massive and union busting billionaires.

Still, on the conservative side it tends to aim more towards extremely limited targets, usually filtered through a lens of bigotry.

I too prefer unscented, and usually the women's version. Current one I usually use is the thin Tom's of Maine unscented, which I think is the one for women. The thick blue body has the powdery deodorant while the thin white body has the smooth solid.

Back when I first ate sushi, my mom always ordered spider rolls. I'd eat them, get an itchy mouth, but assume it was the Wasabi. Then I got braver and ordered other stuff and even with Wasabi, itch gone.

I already knew I was allergic to shrimp and lobster, but crab had always been fine. Spider crabs and blue crabs are in fact not fine for me. Other shellfish is interesting:

Can I eat....
Clams? No.
Oysters? Yes.
Mussels? Yes.
Scallops? Yes.
Conch? Yes.
Crabs? Maybe.
Lobster? No.
Fish? Yes.
Shrimp? No.

So I have a shellfish allergy that doesn't always trigger. It always triggers with what it does trigger though.
