On iOS, I use and love Paprika.
Growing up in the 1960s, my father was a chainsmoker. I never noticed. It was the water that little fish me swam in.
He quit when I was, I dunno, maybe 12 or 13. Suddenly, I noticed tobacco smoke when I encountered it, and it was revolting. I deeply resented having to work in an office in the 1980s that allowed smoking. I deeply resented restaurants with “smoking sections” that were just a half-wall separating me and smokers. I hated flying, with the stench from the “smoking section” filling my air.
How did I survive? Resentfully.
Why? To make workers fearful. Fearful people are less likely to protest or unionize.
Flat boi!
Cue tiny violins.
When I cook, I usually salt after tasting. (I’ve recently switched to so-called “light salt”, which substitutes some potassium chloride for sodium chloride.)
When I dine out, seldom — I find most restaurants add enough salt for me.

Well, points for being transparent, I guess? 🤷♂️
“In high demand”, “pays well”, “is legal”, and “doesn’t require lengthy training and/or edcucation” are usually not a combination that exists.
Fuck me, that’s good blogging!
It’s an interesting line of research, but unless they can completely remove all visual traces of grain, etc, so that it’s very clear, it’s not going to be a replacement for glass in either screens or windows. And I’m skeptical that’s possible.
I’m not suggesting people get complacent. We gotta vote like our democracy depends on preventing another Trump term, because it does.
And gloom & doom about how Trump is polling or Biden is polling, a year in advance of the election, can make people give up and not vote.
Just pointing out that polls aren’t very reliable. “Red Wave 2022” back in 2021, remember?
I doubt it. Polls conducted this early aren’t worth much. People who tend to vote for Democrats may wish for a younger candidate than Biden, but when confronted in the voting booth with a choice of fascism or Biden, most will choose Biden.
