So it turns out that the reason why you aren't seeing that many restaurants switching to Beef Tallow, outside of Steak & Shake is that Steak & Shake actually trademarked "Beef Talllow Fries" which makes it harder for other companies to advertise the switch if they have also made it (or have been doing it before RFK's redpill drop).

just one note… and I could already see a grim light coming from the deeps of a forgotten lake in a cold night, the moon and the stars were missing in the sky. The wind seemed to call my name while something was slowly emerging from the water. It had no eyes but it was watching at me.
@Antrotroll pretty expressive, isn't it? There are other sounds on the Proteus expanders that are quite interesting. I think they still are quite exciting units even today.

Spent a lovely weekend with my lifelong friend, attending both an MCR and Linkin Park concert. But as usual, when getting filled in on the finer details of her life, I remain increasingly concerned about her husband. For all I write about the dangers of men, it was my super libfem older sister who asked me the obvious question today: "Does he even like her as a person?"
I don't think I'm being biased in saying my friend is fairly brilliant. She meandered a bit in her twenties at a job she did not like but after joining the military and getting specialized schooling seems to be a standout in whatever she does. Her husband is newly ex-military, flunked out of college twice, and each time we meet up (around 3 times a year) he has a new career endeavor. Each endeavor shares the following similarities:
1. They must move to somewhere that is both obscure and far away for him to take the job. 2. She must quit her own specialized military job and grad school to make the move. 3. It's something comparatively low level and lower paying than what she does, usually some kind of security guard.
Luckily so far everything has fallen through for him but on our recent meeting she came in with a complaint about her life which she usually doesn't have. The husband hosts a DnD group every couple weeks. She prepares and/or orders in food for everyone. The guests make a spectacular mess of the house. She takes it upon herself to clean it up. She hates this and also doesn't have the free time to keep participating in these long DnD sessions without assistance from other people.
In addition to that, she asked me how to make chicken. She has been a vegetarian her entire life so you can imagine my surprise. Apparently she bought a rotisserie chicken from the store for the husband but him spitting it out and making commentary on how it was dry apparently impacted her so much she is now fretting about how to cook chicken on her own for him... someone who historically doesn't even physically touch meat.
Did I mention they have guns stored all over the house?
I know my views on males at large are considered extreme by the general population. But if I loved someone, I wouldn't keep coming up with these scenarios that would require her putting her entire life on hold, having her clean up after my friends, or spitting out food she got me as a thoughtful gesture.
@GalacticTurtleThose are quite a lot of red flags on one man. Don't your friend notice the negative changes brought by her husband? Or does she insist that he still cares about her?
@VivianHsiaoFor the job stuff she insists she doesn’t care about her own job, she just wants to finish two years at her current one ideally for resume purposes. Before he proposed to her, she described her job as the best thing ever.
She’s definitely frustrated by the DnD which is new for her but didn’t take kindly to me saying the husband can make his own chicken. She then sites the guys she works with in the military who treat their wives terribly and how “if that happened to me I’d end it right away.” She sees no connection between those experiences and hers.
@GalacticTurtleYour poor friend, and poor you for having to watch the inevitable play out.
Everything you point to as a flag, most definitely is, especially the big moving plans that subsequently don't happen... Thats keeping your friend in a state of hyper vigilance because even talking about moving is stressful. She migh't even realise she's been tenderised like this.
And I also see the D&D as a bit of a worry. Don't get me wrong, I love my dice rolling and miniatures, but it's an immersive experience and those with cluster BS and related disorders mental health disorders often use immersive fantasy as a means of detaching. Those adults with full and busy lives do not dedicate an long night each week to it.
I take it man child hasn't locked her in with kids yet? Because that'll be a real danger zone as from what you've said he's not going to put her and a baby first and he'll not enjoy it when she invevitably does.
And I hate to ask this, but does her milarty training mean she's a better shot than him, better weapons handling experience etc etc? Would he be jealous of her in this respect? I don't object to gun ownership in principal but multiply in the house would worry me. When my ex went crazy the first thing I did was move out bow and arrow to the attic.
@FeartnTired @GalacticTurtleBut if course its easy for us to comment as the Greek chorus with the clarity of distance.
Does you friend have a sister Turtle? I've found the intervention of a straight talking sister who doesn't give af about ruining a friendship to be invaluable.
@Lady_Penelope @FeartnTiredNo she’s an only child. So far I’ve mostly been in question asking mode around her as any direct criticism gets me running into a brick wall.
Historically I don’t get any details about her boyfriends because she knows I’ll probably jump to “he sucks, break up with him.”
They had a courthouse marriage last year as the guy was supposedly in a rush to get married for paperwork purposes for a government job he ended up not getting. Now I’m the maid of honor for her actual wedding next year so we are talking and meeting up more than in previous years. Maybe that’s why she voiced frustration about the DnD thing and I was hesitant to go straight in for the “stop putting up with that your husband is red flag central” feedback.
@BlackgendermoderateHa! Honestly something in between is probably what is best. I get cold feet as I don’t want her to cut me out of her life which she is more prone to do as her politics become more severe.
@GalacticTurtleYou're a good friend. That's all you can do. Also probably a better friend than me. I'd be like, "your husband's a gross dangerous loser and if you don't see it, fuck you. Ugh! Stop being dumb." Very productive, you see./s
@GalacticTurtleOh, Turtle 😱 this is just awful! I don't blame you one bit for being worried, I would be too, hell, I don't even know her and I am.
This is so many 🚩 that it beggars belief. What a nightmare, and there really isn't much you can do either, except hope they divorce or he dies, because so often women who get into these situations just do not see it or listen to advice. If she did suddenly think screw this and leave him then it would be terrific. God, I loathe men like this so much, he is an abusive fucker and I would have rammed that chicken so far up his arse he would be growing feathers out his ears for all eternity.
I have a friend who married a bastard, she has a history of older/horrible men. He's on his way out now though, and I will not be a hypocrite and say I'm sorry about it. Other friend and I always referred to him as Foul Ole Ron, from Terry Pratchett. Dreadful man, can't stand him.
If a friend, family member, colleague or neighbour confides in you that they are experiencing domestic abuse, we have some advice to help you support them.
@RadicalCartoons @HebrideanHecateThank you for the resource! The tricky thing with these friends and others in my life who have eventually found themselves in unhappy home situations is that it has never been so cut and dry as "Bob is beating the shit out of me, what do I do?" But rather, I'm aware they have certain life goals, but upon meeting Bob, those goals magically change overnight. They insist that this change is one they have their whole hearts behind, but in reality, it's just Bob's interests and goals replacing their own interests and goals. And it just deteriorates from there. My one friend packed her bags one evening and left in a hurry, which was ultimately the best option for her, but it's not something I want to relive again. I really think she got lucky, seeing as the retaliation on his part was rather limited. They certainly didn't have guns stored all over the house. And they lived in Los Angeles, not some field in New Jersey.

HAVANA, Cuba, August 15 (ACN) Cuban foreign minister Bruno Rodriguez Parrilla criticized today the systematic actions carried out by the State of Israel against the Palestinian population and warned that this genocide must end.
CIA spymaster James Angleton shaped the US-Israeli relationship in secrecy. Newly unredacted files shed light on his wanton betrayal of his country to assist Israel’s theft of US nuclear material and global spying operations.
Veteran CIA counterintelligence chief James Angleton secretly oversaw a top-level spy ring involving Jewish émigrés and Israeli operatives without “any clearances” from Congress or Langley itself, according to recently declassified documents published as part of the Trump administration’s pledge to disclose all available information on the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
The files provide a fresh and often disturbing look at a spy described by historian Jefferson Morley as “a leading architect of America’s strategic relationship with Israel,” detailing Angleton’s role in transforming the Mossad into a fearsome agency with global reach, while assisting Israel’s theft of US nuclear material and protecting Zionist terrorists.

You can submit war crimes evidence in Gaza directly to the International Criminal Court (ICC) via OTPLink (otplink.icc-cpi.int). The UN Human Rights Office (complaints.ohchr.org/Home) also accepts reports.
Don't assume somebody else already did. Especially if they come from smaller accounts.
Tip: keep files unaltered (metadata intact), use secure submission, and consider sending to multiple channels.

The BBC has never mentioned the Hannibal directive, invoked by Israel on 7 October 2023, that green-lit the murder of Israeli soldiers and civilians, often by Apache helicopter fire, to prevent them being taken captive by Hamas. The Israeli media has extensively reported on the role of the Hannibal directive in the Israeli military’s response on 7 October, but that coverage has been completely ignored by the BBC and most UK media outlets. dorseteye.com/why-bbc-editors-…

Israel’s invocation of the Hannibal directive – essential context for understanding what happened on 7 October – explains much of the destruction that day in Israel usually attributed to Hamas “barbarism”, such as the graveyard of burnt-out, crumpled cars and the charred, crumbling remains of houses in communities near Gaza.
Hamas, with its light weapons, did not have the ability to inflict this kind of damage on Israel, and we know from Israeli witnesses, video footage and admissions from Israeli military officers that Israel was responsible for at least a share of the carnage that day. How much we will apparently never know because Israel is not willing to investigate itself, and media like the BBC are not doing any investigations themselves, or putting any pressure on Israel to do so. dorseteye.com/why-bbc-editors-…

It's been a very long time since I played Payday 2 so you gotta tell me how it holds up. One of the reasons I liked [game redacted] was because it hit the same highs as PD2 but without being so damned autistic about the skill trees and meta grind
good grief watching you scroll through the perk deck and see pages of "You get 5% more racism and 10% speed in saying nigger" makes me certain I'm not reinstalling this crap.
@Basedshibe honestly I hadn't even looked at it since before they added any other heisters so the grind and DLC shit was way less egregious when I played but also I wasn't sure if they had improved it.
@Basedshibe now if you want bro-op shooters, the best on the market is Deep Rock Galactic and it isn't close. L4D2 still holds up. I honestly liked Payday 1 way more than 2 because it was focused more on cooler bigger maps (the newbie bank in PD1 is a two story bank like from the Batman movie while PD2 is the corner store supermarket bank. Felt like the biggest downgrade) without the autistic perks and silly stealth dichotomy. But don't take that as a hard recommendation as its been 15 years since I have even thought about PD1. [Game redacted] wasn't just a meme it literally was worth the time we put in it sadly and it is hard to find a crimegame that I would call better.
And of course your viewers should have a vote too after all not just my autism
