    You probably have something fucky going on with bureaucracy or taxation capacity that's fucking up your income, or construction goods are actually Not Cheap, if you're building for them but still unable to sustain your construction

    An example of the bureaucracy/tax shit randomly fucking you is when you're playing Japan and get forced to open and all of a sudden make no money, it's cause isolationism gives a big increase to taxation capacity. I haven't played a lot of Russia though so idk what equivalent things might be happening

    sorry there are further levels of gender and interactions there you cannot grasp but yes, idk, what do you think you're saying if "cocksucking" is inherently HOMOphobic? You're restricting it to male-male interactions? like, what?

    And again, nobody has told me exactly what nature of bigotry is being performed in calling a cat "a little removed," j/s. Sorry bubbles, you're a homophobe

    I hate word prescriptivist motherfuckers trying to tell me how to talk, like you know what goes on on my head. I say "removed" because it flows in the moment i use it in and sounds good and satisfies whatever anger i feel that needs an invective and i resent being told that I'm a fucking bigot for it

    Honestly, for real, imo it's people JUST BEING NERDS. Like, for real, how often do you think people say SHIT and think about actual shit? Every time somebody says shit they're thinking of doodoo ass poopoo? That's what the WORD means, right? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

    And every time someone says FUCK, they're thinking of FUCKING right? Why else would they say the word, right? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

    Fuck all the way off with this shit lmao

    weird

    on a side note i wanna say big props to.. whichever Alf for recommending me cashews immediately after arguing with me

    (They would help with creaminess but unfortunately are a tree nut allergen, best bet so far imo for vegan nut based cream is sunflower seeds)

    You see now that there's more support for the death penalty, there's implicitly more support for Throwing Them All in the Pit! The libs can't say we're uncivil then!

    this is a hate post i hate runny sauces. what the fuck is the point of them? you make a sauce to make a thing you put the sauce on or in or otherwise dip into the sauce taste good, but if the sauce is runny, it just, slides off. What the fuck is the point of that? It's so stupid, fuck them, fuck. Biggest culprits are usually soy sauce based dipping sauced at restaurants but I just tried a hatch chile salsa that is like 60% liquid, god damn, how the fuck is that gonna stay on a chip??? thicken your sauces people, I need it, I need the sauce to *cling*

    I.e. my chef friend had ground jalapeno at her apartment, shit was good. Like cayenne level heat but with a different flavor I had to go to like an international food market to find some near me which is weird given how ubiquitous jalapeno peppers are

    >A cohort of human patients previously taking CBD had significantly lower SARSCoV-2 infection incidence of up to an order of magnitude relative to matched pairs or the general population An order of magnitude is a SIGNIFICANT reduction yall like wow >[CBD and its metabolite 7-OH-CBD, but not THC or other congeneric cannabinoids tested, potently block SARS-CoV-2 replication in lung epithelial cells. CBD acts after viral entry, inhibiting viral gene expression and reversing many effects of SARS-CoV-2 on host gene transcription. CBD inhibits SARS-CoV-2 replication in part by up-regulating the host IRE1α RNase endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress response and interferon signaling pathways. In matched groups of human patients from the National COVID Cohort Collaborative, CBD (100 mg/ml oral solution per medical records) had a significant negative association with positive SARS-CoV-2 tests. This study highlights CBD as a potential preventative agent for early-stage SARS-CoV-2 infection and merits future clinical trials.](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35050692/) Link is an updated study 1 from 2022, the link in the post is the original study from 2021 They immediately go on to caution against using CBD against covid but COME ON Y'ALL. Are you readin' what I'm readin'? CBD is, to my understanding, pretty fucking benign and almost impossible to like OD on. IMO there's no reason outside of cost NOT to be juiced to the gills on CBD all the time, at least if you're worried about covid Note: the studies note that THC actually inhibits these effects, so you can't just get high on the reefer, you need actual CBD. It also notes various methods of delivery might be more or less biologically active as CBD is very hydrophobic and easily forms clumps that get broken down in the liver Anyway once again I am left thinking "why does nobody else talk about this" It weirds me out, honestly, like, with all the other snake oil bullshit attributed to CBD, why not this too? And with people desperate to try literally anything to not die of covid, to the point they drink horse dewormer and their intestines fall out........ why hasn't this gotten any attention? It's like some kind of SCP-####, a blankness in people's attention. This relatively cheap, ubiquitous, non toxic drug could help cut down both covid transmission and severity of infections but nobody talks about doing CBD as a covid prophylactic except for me being a crank about it!

    Stop buying those stupid sisal rope scratching posts. What happens when you cut a rope? It breaks, the thing is fucked. Sound familiar? Get a scratching post made out of woven sisal. It will cost 40 dollars but last as long as like 10000 rope posts You're welcome for this knowledge ![zane](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/67540b9a-8021-49b1-a530-8f4cf4a9c966.png "emoji zane")

    Like I cannot fucking figure it out and since I'm BANNED ON REDDIT AGAIN I can't post on the one place where someone might actually answer this other than here or I guess the steam forums but fuck the steam forums. Anyway, I have never, ever, in like hundreds of hours of gameplay, taken territory and not had a secession shortly after that I've had to crush. The turmoil in conquered territory is always >50% and it's basically impossible to build enough to meaningfully affect standard of living to reduce radicals before the secession triggers, especially because of the massive construction penalties from the turmoil. Like I do not know what I, the player, am supposed to actively do aside from wait for the inevitable secession and crush it. Then it never happens again and the turmoil goes away. Like am I supposed to just never conquer anything until I have 10000 construction points and can turn the conquered territory into a utopia in a few months? Because the timeline to secession is IMPOSSIBLY short.

    except in like 2 years I'll have to kill a secession here because I literally do not understand how to prevent secessions, at all, ever, they just happen inevitably no matter what until I crush them
