GOOD MORNING.

the tuck appreciation thread.

I have never separated the whites from the colors and nothing bad has happened yet

Who came up with this Jim Crow laundry advice anyway

#TouchWater

Ok people, I need help.

What brand of washer and dryer do you hate, and which do you like/has worked for you.

I’m avoiding anything with digital screens because I’ve literally only ever heard and experienced them to be unreliable, unfixable without a “certified technician,” and annoying AF.

If anyone has any useful info or experiences with washer/dryer combo feel free to dump your advice below. #asknostr #homestr

Of Orwell's, I've also read (and recommend):

- Animal Farm (fiction, superficially a children's story, actually about the Russian Revolution and the dark places it went)

- Homage to Catalonia (nonfiction, Orwell's first hand experiences serving as a volunteer in the Spanish Civil War for what quickly became a dystopian govt)

Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" is also classic dystopian fiction, recommend.

I'd also put in a good word for Robert Heinlein's "If This Goes On". This is the novella that the plot of "The Handmaid's Tale" was later ripped from, the original is better and more complex despite being YA fiction.

Tell us about some you've liked, and we'll see if we can recommend more!

I really like watermelon but ever since those new dietary guidelines came out the only thing I can think about every time I eat watermelon is "Why do the people who are trying to kill me want me to eat watermelon so bad?"

Maybe it's just that Bill Gates uses a lot of his farm land to grow watermelon?

Maybe it's something worse?

Maybe it's nothing at all...

Define “woke”

Showing people zaps. Zap me. Yes just took this.

Name ONE thing the government ever made better by getting involved.
