Mexican followers can you confirm all the spices you need in a "Mexican soup" are paprika, cumin, and oregano

you know what's very on par with the shitty way things are

is that after my crummy house flipper landlord [who can't even fix my current leaky roof in his moldy backyard shed that I live in] offered to rent me a run-down farm property for 3K a month (valued -$500 by zillow) so that I could as he claimed, 'run a horse boarding business that would totally cover the rent'— I counter-offered that if he let me live there and sublet it for 6 months for my current rent or less while I did all the work needed to make it a livable horse property (which I've done successfully before), I would do that for him. I also explained why horse boarding isn't the easy money he's used to.

He graciously offered to drop the price to 2.4k and then gave up on the idea entirely when I didn't LEAP at the chance to spend an extra 1k+ a month for the honor of scraping the 2 feet of compacted cow shit out of the aisle of his dingy little barn, fixing half a dozen broken gates, repairing and building several fences, clearing piles of debris, maintaining barn plumbing, raising the stall walls, feeding the stray chickens, and generally cleaning the place up.

Nah, he would rather have it sit empty while he waits for some schmuck rich and dumb enough to dish out the 3k than risk actually building anything of real value in this world.

I took a snoop around the farmhouse too and tell me how it couldn't have been more than 10 years old based on the architectural style but all of the floors were lumpy and uneven under the cheap linoleum. All the showers were trendy tile and it was already cracked around the edge of the floor pan, so RIP the insides of the walls within 5 years. The ceiling fans were disco dancing. I found a rolled up rug that reeked of piss in a closet. The stove hood wasn't connected to a vent (shocker, neither is mine).

fuck flippers. fuck landlords. It pisses me off so much that unprofessional slobs like him who brag about how fast they can do the worst work you've ever seen can afford dozens of properties all over the country but a guy like me who just wants the opportunity to take good care of ONE will never get the chance.

Still coming to terms with the writers giving more pov to Victor over his broken penis than they did to Trina processing being drugged by Little Miss White Privilege

I think putting your kindergartner on adhd medication is bad parenting. Btw.

the glorification of your 20s and fear of anything else has got to stop. mainly bc your 20s is quite literally the worst decade of your life the idea that ppl think you peak at 25 has me so sad for them

The manga industry, especially JUMP, needs to hurry up and do away with weekly scheduling for mangaka. There needs to better regulations put into place for their health and safety because this is pitiful. Two weeks - monthly updates should’ve already been the standard for the manga industry at this point. These money grabbers will only continue to put the lives of these artists at stake for the sake of capitalism unless some serious changes are implemented.

I guess what gets me about fatphobia is seeing someone literally recovering from addiction and gaining weight being framed as a bad thing because a substance use problem that is eating you from the inside out is preferable so long as you are twenty pounds lighter.

It has never been about people's health.

the United States is the worst disease this world has ever faced lol
