In case no one has seen the study, the issue is people don't know which part of the revolution is tied to independence day, not they are clueless of what is going on.

In multiple choice responses were:

53% Adoption of Declaration of Independance

23% unsure

8% Ratification of Constitution

6% Victory of the Revolutionary War

5% Election of first President

3% Prilgrims landing on Plymouth Rock

1% Founding of Jamestown

Indiana suspended gas tax from April until July 7th. It will likely keep getting extended as long as Trump wants it. We're sub $3 in areas of the state.

We also cut school budgets so my kid won't have a full time PE, art, or music teacher next year. I'm sure it's unrelated.

Someone has never tried to get 2 toddlers into a car to go pick up food, get them in the store and then get back in the car. The $10 extra cost to have a pizza delivered vs pickup can be very worth it.

I don't use delivery often, but you really need to realize not everyone lives the same life parameters as you.

I've been a full size candy bar house for a while. Buying bulk candy bars spiked in 2021. Boxes usually average about $1.25 per bar, but you can find sales at Costco at $0.60 each if you aren't picky on exact candies.

Non-candy options I sprinkle in that are hits are rice krispy treats, bags of microwave popcorn (unpopped) and the packaged 2 pack of cookies.

Definitely a US grocery store.

195 or 310 is piece count. The bags are usually sold by rounded weight (3 or 5lbs).

Banning the soy sauce packets would force a mindset change. A new solution would be restaurants having the full size bottles and when you pick up, you can bring a Tupperware to fill.

It likely wasn't done on an electron microscope, or at least there is no reason to. There is no scale bar, but quick look online tells me a very fine needle is about 0.016in. 500x magnification optical lens would give you more than enough resolution for a photo like that.

Anyone else just use the plastic net that onions come in until it gets gross?
