Literally every fable ends with a good lesson, how to pick! The salt merchant’s donkey sticks out as a memorable one because it’s complex–the donkey’s mistake is not trying to lighten its load, it is doing so excessively, trying to reduce its load to zero every day. The merchant’s revenge seems somewhat cruel, but isn’t actually forced upon the donkey until/unless, even though the sponges are very light on the last day, the donkey tries to make them even lighter by slipping into the water. It’s a classic “pigs get fat, hogs get slaughtered” type message, but with some interesting nuance to it.

The more deeply and unanimously red your local lawmakers consider their electorate, the more confident they will be pushing right and far right legislation and building MAGA cultishness. It won’t change who’s elected, but it can change how your local lawmakers think about what their community wants.

Say you’re from California on the form and it’ll change what you have to enter. You don’t have to put in an address or verify CA residency.
Including the opt out link in the announcement article is a good guy move on the writer’s part. Thanks, Kate. You’re a pal.

Check out 3rd Wave Water, you can take coffee snobbery to heights you’ve never imagined…
Moore’s point is that we shouldn’t let the inability to eliminate that “what if,” which was specifically designed to be non-disprovable, actually affect ontology. That problems and questions created by philosophers basically just to stump philosophical methods should be all but ignored since, by design, there clearly can’t be an answer except that one thing is by far most likely, and the other thing cannot matter because we can’t prove or act upon it or treat it as anything other than a manufactured source of doubt/skepticism.
Mission success, Deapacito 2 discovered and brought back from space.
Anything is toxic when concentrated enough. Fish food kills fish at high volumes; fish kill humans at high volumes.
What’s crazy is there are really good ways to dilute things–namely using a high volume of water…
Lol sounds like a you problem. It’s all biodegradable and good fun. It actually does look cool. Long time Chicagoans and new visitors still like it. Sorry you don’t.
Because of the taste? While it’s not common to brew a drink with other beans, we eat them all the time, and it’s pretty obvious in doing so that they aren’t flavors that lend themselves to a beverage.
Coffee beans are actually the seed of a more traditional “fruit” (ie, sweet and acidic) rather than a legume like other beans (also technically seeds, but vegetal in flavor, with an entirely different taste and texture). You’re basically just going to get a weak broth from traditional beans.
Similarly, people have tried steeping every type of leaf, plant, and fruit out there in water, but it’s a pretty limited list that remains popularly used for tea, as it’s a pretty limited list (relative to the incredible diversity of plant life) that actually tastes good that way.
People use mushrooms, various roots (like chicory), other fruity seeds, and more to create coffee-like drinks, and/so with the number of people and cultures out there with their own tastes and traditions, it’s a relatively safe bet that if people aren’t drinking it anywhere in the world, it’s because they’ve tried it and it just doesn’t taste good.
