The hard fact is that what the population votes for is what the population gets. They have completely given up their agency and just accept this impotent logic of "we'll take whatever the most obvious/most apparently easy option is, that isn't a Republican". It's a cyclical problem, the voters don't care enough to force politicians to be good, and the politicians don't care enough to court voters.

A lot less than Americans think. Going from memory it's about 6-8% of calories.

Not really "appeasement" of course, more "capitulation" - by all indications he's a plant.

As strong as the drywall they're pulling against, at least.

Drywall anchors are basically useless.

I think the actual code re: that is those big metal handle rail bars that have to be attached to studs (ADA compliance maybe?).

I should get used to that with my grater. I either press with huge amounts or just do the old smash and rapid micro slice.

The pumps they sell for coffee syrup dispensers maybe.

Shoe sizes need to go too. Just measure it in centimeters. List all the measurements - length, width at forefoot, midfoot, rearfoot. Let people go online and look up a list of shoes that actually fit perfectly. Instead we have three or four different variants of shoe size numbers, gendered, that don't even work with width, and half the time are too big or too small.

Wait until you hear about PEX piping.

A lot of toilet paper holders are secured to the wall with drywall hangers. An L-shaped one-piece one is basically asking to be torqued right out of the wall.
