So grey and white?

You really think there aren't any normal streamers on Twitch?

Yes, I love when birds wake me up at 5 am from their incessant singing because they can't shut up. It makes me so happy to not be able to sleep.

Yeah, this is bought.

Free school meals for all may reduce childhood obesity, while easing financial and logistical burdens for families and schools in c/science@lemmy.world

I don't think that's a bad thing on its own. Meat isn't the only source of protein that exists and Americans probably eat too much of it.

Starting from an early age to not expect meat at every meal otherwise it's not a meal is probably a good thing.

But if they deserved to eat, they would've been born into families that could feed them.

[GENERAL] Buttering bread with the back of a spoon is easier and better than doing it with a knife in c/unpopularopinion@lemmy.world

Interesting thought.

I use a butter spreader for butter, but a spoon for jam/jelly. I don't think I would like the spoon for butter myself, but it's neat to see other people who use spoons to spread condiments.

In an analog, my college degree required me to read. A lot. Like, I devoured books as a kid, but this was a lot, every week, and it was a required reading. I enjoy it, but I didn't read after that. I've also heard similar experiences from my friends who went to law school, so much reading they've stopped reading. My husband knows several artists who go into graphic design and stop doing art in their personal time.

I just last month got back into reading. It's been over twenty years since college and I just got the ability to read through more than a handful of pages in a book.

When something is work, you don't necessarily want to do it in your offtime.

It’s just water in a can. How did Liquid Death become a billion-dollar brand? in c/nottheonion@lemmy.world

Outdoor festivals are likely treated a little differently than indoor ones.

I've been to several concerts that pour all drinks into a plastic solo cup.

I've only ever bought their peach tea. It was pretty tasty, but not something I would get all of the time. It was a nice alternative to other teas you find in the gas station.

I didn't even know they sold water. I've only ever seen tea.

Starbucks accused of violating Americans with Disabilities Act by charging extra for non-dairy in c/news@lemmy.world

[–] EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 10 points 6 months ago

All the coffee shops I know use the same 1 quart carton for non-dairy milk that I use at home. They come in a box of 12 if you buy them in bulk.

I have no idea why the other commenter thinks the packaging is different.

What game do you find so addicting that you can't even have it installed without neglecting life's responsibilities? in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca

[–] EssentialCoffee@midwest.social 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

My husband loves Bejeweled Twisted. I just can't.

I love me some match-3 games though. Doesn't need to be bejeweled.
