No, I delete individual items as I read them, but never delete the whole folder in one go.

No. The games are more fun. There's so much variety available: A lot more games that you won't like but a lot more games that you will like, too, you just have to find them.

I don't like lootbox shovelware, either, but you know what? I just don't play those games. I play other ones, new and old, that I actually like. So can you.

Seniority is the stand-in for merit. Until merit can be evaluated, it's presumed that someone more senior in a position has more experience, training, and connections in that position, and thus higher merit.

I love acidic foods. It's essential for cutting through the fatty richness of some dishes. Bacon's nice but bacon with tomato is amazing. Ham and cheese on bread are dece but it's not really a sandwich without mustard. Most soups are better with a squeeze of citrus. And so on, and so on.

Vinegar is another kind of acid, or really two kinds: Fermented vinegar is very different from distilled vinegar. Most people like fermented vinegar in moderation, and some (including me) like it even out of moderation. I will soak good bread in balsamic and eat it strait, for example. I barely put oil on my salads, it's mostly vinegar.

Distilled vinegar is the kind you clean with, but you can eat it, too. I think maybe overfamiliarity with it as a cleaning product may dampem some people's desire to consume vinegar; I myself never used it for cleaning growing up, except small amounts to treat laundry.

Those translations are, IIUC, choosing to preserve "Lilith" as a proper name rather than translate it as a common noun meaning "night creature".

Discussions of Lilith are always mythological in nature, not theological.

But in riding around the fantastic rail trails in and around Victoria, B.C., I realized there is one big risk of rail trails that shouldn't be overlooked.

And then the article ends? This is your content, OP, what's the deal?

Art Brut. Their catalog just isn't a draw from me, but I saw them open for another hand and they're immaculate performers, they honestly blew the headliners away with their amazing energy and perfect read of the audience.

I'm sad to see that Crying while Eating is now defunct, but at least it was safe by the archive.

I don't know if I ever pinned down what I found so powerful about that page, but it's one I think about regularly.

Big fan of "openness", not a big fan of spelling.
