Yeah, the Plains get pretty hot and humid, especially with the flatness and general lack of trees. I remember a 118°F day in east-river SD in 2005 or -6, a shitty day to be a lifeguard lol. At least there's a little geography in the Badlands, and you're close to the Black Hills, which are gorgeous. But yeah, they are called the Badlands for a reason lol.

That bag could definitely close, with more free space left than the other version by the looks of it.

I'll give you that the bag on the left isn't closed, but I don't believe it can't be. I've squeezed enough blocks of cheese into sandwich bags to know what they look like when they won't close, and that bag could absolutely be closed. It's still funny for the meme though!

I didn't accuse you of a crime, just faulty reasoning and spurious dietary advice. "Some plants aren't edible or have to be cooked first and some people are allergic to some plants sometimes, so it's objectively healthier not to eat any plant ever." That math just ain't mathin' homie 🤷‍♂️

Right, so what they're doing is not a great policy stance, contrary to what you said earlier.

Bernie didn't have the power to deliver on his promises without winning the election, Trump already won and has control of all three branches. It's objectively massively different to Bernie, or any other office-seeking politician, running on a platform of what they would try to do once elected. It's the difference between, "Here's what I'll try to accomplish if I win," and "Here's something I could do now but I won't, I'll only do it later and only if you vote how I say." I'd argue it's closer to extortion than a bribe, but no matter what you call it, it's a terrible, evil policy stance.

You can't look at the amounts used, it's a proprietary seasoning blend

If I were to follow your precedent, my response to that link would just be: oh what a delicious herb!

Since I'm not you, I actually read what you posted, and it's pretty inconclusive. It's not an actual study, just a research compilation, so none of the methodologies or data sets are presented here, which makes verifying the claims or their relevance to human experience impossible. It doesn't define "chronic or high dose" usage, which is the only populations it's concerned with regarding possible toxicity. The thesis of the conclusion is: "More research is recommended." How damning. I like this part too: "Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) contains alkaloids, phenolic acids, saponins, tannins, diterpenes, flavonoids, and essential oils and has"antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, anticancer, neuroprotective, cardioprotective, and hepatoprotective effects", emphasis is my own. Sounds like the benefits vastly outweigh the potential side effects.

But my favorite part, though it's technically unrelated to the topic at hand, tells me a lot about the authors of this paper: "the authors used ChatGPT and Quillbot to rephrase to reduce plagiarism" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 emphasis is my own again lol

You asked what I based my current opinions on, so I gave you the literature, and then you imply i'm wasting your time by citing things I haven't read - that isn't very nice of you.

You must be a Republican politician with that level of gaslighting and projection, that's literally what you've been doing to them the entire time, when they clearly read and were willing to discuss everything posted by both of you. That isn't very nice of you.

I'm guessing it went something like, "Steak is good and pepper is good, so steak and pepper together are better than either alone." Of course Jim Gaffigan disproved this line of reasoning with his fruit cake bit: "Fruit, good, cake, good, fruit cake, nasty crap!"
