You nailed Ketchup.
Also, mayonnaise is fucking disgusting. I worked at subway in high school and we had to install wide-nozzle tubes on our mayo dispensers because the morbidly obese customers would say things like “I don’t want to be able to see the sandwich, just bury it in mayo” and it would hold up the sandwich line.
Let’s get down to it: top 3 hot sauces? I go Valentinas, green Tabasco, sriracha. Honorable mention, gochujang, tapatio

People also just get confused by terminology and the mechanics and do it on accident, though much less common if state isn’t including it on voter reg for sure.
The genesis of this post was a family member in a very blue state, who went to an ivy league school and is extremely progressive and was sick of blue/red and googled “independent party” in her state and when I sent her the party platform she was registered for she lost her mind.
Political parties vary by state, and registration processes do also as noted elsewhere in the thread. There may not be an Independent party in your state, but there are in others and it causes confusion.
The point of the post is to share the point of confusion so people can read up on their registration or state party platforms. If you’re not going to bother to learn about the differences that do exist, but still want to broadly claim “election year bullshit”, maybe you’re part of the problem you’re raging about.
I’m in Oregon and it’s on the voter registration form, not required, but a big drop down with party name and no other info. Oregon is hardly red.
Picked some random states, they’re all different which is also part of the confusion when citizens move. They may not record it for the state but can those in the state still register or join a party on their own? Issue would still exist if so.
Sounds like some future GOP presidential candidate material if convicted!
Thanks to massive lobbying, and this won’t surprise anyone on Lemmy, but cosmetics as a whole have no regulatory oversight mechanism. The FDA can recommend things and it’s up to corporations to self-regulate, which usually works well with no significant fines to deter bad actors.
Don’t let your kids use anything.
No, that is bullshit. If you don’t trust them or if they can’t be trusted don’t give them a phone. Nanny parenting, or pretending you’re the NSA is unhealthy for their development, and gives you an illusion of control of their life that is inaccurate and misleading.
Talk to your fucking kid about your worries or their behavior and/or parent them, actually drive behavioral change, but don’t bitch out and not parent and pretend the E-leash is helping them or you.
When rich people get affected, people go down
Also make sure you register on the social security administration website and IRS…or someone else will do it for you.
Also, note on the SSA website, they will require you to login with 2FA email and will send you a slow ass code that takes 2-10i items to arrive. The rub is, if you copy the code with any standard method and paste it into their box, it copies an extra space character and pastes it, invisibly into the 2FA code box, which then fails. Took me a few weeks to work this out…they have a link to login support from the same page…wonder why they get issues?!? You have to type it in manually and only if you know this issue exists.
I opened a ticket with their IT for the good of the world…fuck the contractor who made that webpage.
The Century of the Self, a multi-part series on the Genesis of contemporary US Public Relations and propaganda, politics and the godfather of it all, Edward Bernays.
Watched it once 20 years ago and still think of it in reference to many broken business, government and political approaches.

I’ve heard that consistently. Love going into games blind, never even saw as much as a trailer for fallout before jumping in. Heard Vegas was the bomb, enjoying 4 for what it is now.
Just started the Fallout series a few months ago(3, now into 4) less neon but definitely highly critical of corporations’ soullessness, consumerism, vanity and all other things that will disappear when important things happen. Incredible consistent aesthetic and feel.

Edit: Vonnegut, the far side and Calvin and Hobbes for making me feel like I’m not crazy and most people are peddling a tremendous amount of bullshit.
I’ll clap for prodigious and the insult!
You have “a massively large vocabulary” and couldn’t think of anything other than “massively large”? 🤔
It’s not a bribe. It’s a gratuity paid after the service is provided when the electee or appointee leaves office, which is totally palatable and sustainable in a failed democracy.
