As an outsider, there's just one thing I don't understand about current GOP and it's supporters.

A lot of them were born in the era when the first thing they taught American kids was that Soviets and Russia were primordial evil and their nemesis. It was always about being better than commies, that was the most important thing.

Fast forward to this past decade and suddenly they love Putin, former KGB agent?
Like why? How?

I don't get it

Sarma is the name of the dish in the picture.

Sarma (Turkish for wrapped; Cyrillic: ), commonly marketed in the English-speaking world as stuffed grape leaves, stuffed vine leaves, or stuffed cabbage leaves, is a food in Southeastern European and Ottoman cuisine made of vegetable leaves rolled around a filling of grains (such as rice), minced meat, or both. The vegetable leaves may be cabbage, patience dock, collard, grapevine, kale or chard leaves. Sarma is part of the broader category of stuffed dishes known as dolma.

As per usual, social networks are to blame.
Back in the day, the only people who took steroids where bodybuilding competitiors, nowdays we have random kids in their early 20s juicing for no other reason than to look better.
And then they ruin their health because they just start juicing unsupervised.

Then they want to act like bad guys until a construction worker bitchslaps them back into reality.

Manual, but I should try electric.

My skin, especially the neck area gets really irritated regardless of the razor I use if I shave before fourth day.
I can either do it every day or every fourth. Second and third day the beard is too short and sharp, it's torture.

This is basically no different then the stock market, except that with stocks there is technically some company or something you supposedly have a piece of. Not that you can go use that to claim ownership over, say, the factory machinery they have.

The value of said stock in said company doesn't reflect the actual value of what they have. It can and may well vary wildly. If something happens that makes the company need to liquidate itself, odds are you will lose money as its "value" skydives back to around whatever it can sell its stuff off for.

BTW, this is a slam against the stock market as well, not a defense of crypto. Look up the South Sea Bubble sometime.

I get what you're saying, but those companies at least exist. (well most of them, lmao)
It's more about the creation of crypto. Brand new currency out of nothing.
That's what I was trying to point out with my post.
Yes, technically when you mine crypto it exists in digital world, but why is it allowed to have value? It's just digital money.

If we decided to create a physical currency like I tried to describe, we certainly wouldn't be allowed to do so.

Crypto shit is unsecured (as far as banking goes) so why would they care about Bitcoin?

I was going more from the angle of unregulated money flow.
Before crypto, it wasn't that easy for even technologically illiterate people to anonymously send money around without sender or receiver being known. Now everyone can figure it out in minutes.
And a lot of reputable sites added crypto option.
Considering how goverments in biggest countries want to tax everything, seems kind of strange they just allowed crypto to become the easiest way to anonymously make bigger transfers online.

-Might legit kill people

A lot of these crypto morons are completely clueless on how PCs and electricity work.
A couple of years ago there was a case in my area where a woman died. Electricity surge from a poorly set-up mining rig killed her.

Natural selection, some would say.

The world would be so much better off without cryptocurrency and snake oil selling "crypto bros"

I never understood how did banks that control everything allow crypto to spiral out of control.
For example, 10 of us in here decide we're creating a CEMEN currency and that from now on it's going to be worth $10k per 1 CEMEN. And everyone just accepts it? Like wtf?
That's what crypto is, pretty much. Creating money out of thin air.

Now I'm not saying that people shouldn't exploit idiots for easy money, but I kind of never understood how something that literally generates money out of nothing became so uncontrolled. Especially with how easy it is to evade taxes or even pay for illegal services with crypto.

They'll find someone with similar voice and noone will notice.

Rick and Morty changed actors and if you didn't know about it, you wouldn't have noticed while watching the last season.

I'm on my usual sugar free post new year thing.

No sugar whatsoever except for an orange/apple here and there, also no bread.
No beer, if I'm drinking I'll have white wine.

I'm more or less just eating meat, potatoes and vegetables of all kinds.
