It's very slow but biggest one I've found is !askmeanything@lemmy.ca. It does have good engagement though when someone posts:)

Gearing up for Halloween season and really enjoying the creepy vibes wherever they may crop up, including picking out some indie horror games to play. This looks great (and no jump scares are nice hehe). Thanks for the spooky content! :D

P.S. Small detail, but I like how the wall bends at the bottom in the last screenshot.

The crushed bodies of a Central and South American insect, called the Cochineal, produces a natural red dye.

They are used for textiles, food-coloring, and cosmetics. Next time you see an ingredients list that includes carmine, cochineal extract or natural red 4, it comes from these bugs.

Nah the pigeon is cooked in a pan along with this really thick and savory herbal sauce

Surely there are debates on best pastrami in NY, but this is the one I tried when I visited. Mouth watering goodness!

Piccione alla leccarda from Trattoria La Palomba in Orvieto, Italy

Pigeon in sauce made of garlic, rosemary, sage, onion, black olives, red wine, vinegar, oil, salt and pepper

This restaurant is in the 2024 Michelin Guide Italy. Recommend stopping here if you're visiting Orvieto and want to try something different!

So I've had allergies all my life. Waking up stuffy or sniffling is super common, I don't even keep track of it. When it's bad, if I tilt my head back, I'm literally drinking mucus lol (gross). I joke about being allergic to the outdoors, spring time's bad, and there's particularly something about the desert that makes my allergies act up. Some of the shrubs out there, sagebrush maybe. And I can get it basically everywhere, even while traveling to other countries, so it seems like I'm allergic to multiple things. My allergy symptoms are pretty much sneezing and sniffling, nothing to do with the throat.

I've taken OTC antihistamine meds before. They don't completely dry me out but it helps a little. They're not a magical cure, so I actually don't bother most of the time unless it's bad and I have something important going on.

I don't think you're being a big baby, because it sounds like you just developed this issue? I just deal with it because it's normal, it's been going on my whole life, kinda like wearing glasses lol.

Potatoes when cooked then cooled actually greatly lowers the glycemic index, so it's weird but actually not a bad habit to have!

It looks beautiful. Love foggy mornings.

They absolutely do! Some animals mate for life. Some mourn when one of their own dies (see whales, elephants). Parrots who are lonely may self-mutilate. Dogs can remember you and get so excited to see you, even after being separated for years. Interspecies friendships exist. It's like... I don't see how people can still think animals DON'T have emotions.

They just don't make faces like humans do. Although interestingly, dogs developed eyebrow muscles that give them more human-like expressions, which therefore strengthens our bond with them.

Tonight's show in Boston. Apparently Perry Farrell was wasted and kept messing up the vocals, everyone was pissed but tried to work through it, then Perry flips out on Dave Navarro and had to get wrestled down.

They're on a reunion tour with the original members for the first time in 14 years, but they might just be done after this.

4.5 min video of the exchange. Very satisfying watch!

Stephen Miller, Trump advisor, absolutely loses his mind when journalist José María Del Pino asks him where he gets his information about Venezuela's supposed low crimes rates.

Excellent recording by Michael Murray, played on one of the largest organs in the world. It sounds absolutely massive. The lows in this piece will make your house shake.

Pure Americana. Just a dude who loved off-roading obsessed with putting bigger and bigger tires on his truck. Named it Bigfoot. Drove over a couple of cars and taped it for fun.

Fast forward to BIGFOOT performing at the Pontiac Silverdome in 1983 in 72,000 people and flashing cameras. History was made.

I actually had my partner read this too, and we're in agreement, so you've got both a male and female opinion here lol:

SHE asked for your number, SHE wanted to spend more time with you. Seems awfully convenient that she wasn't able to do her work for whatever reason, and instead was content with just chit chatting. Also – hearts are flirty. Especially at work AND you just met the person.

We think she's interested but you probably didn't do enough during the hang out, and she didn't want to embarrass herself, so she just downplayed it.

Our advice is to just ask her out. She seems more forward, so she probably appreciates confidence. "Hey I had fun talking! We should get dinner some time. Are you available?"
