    Did…are you a bot? The last step in the video is literally putting the seeds in the bowl and scooping out flesh with a spoon. I guess this is “waterless” if the goal is not getting your hands wet with water (only pomegranate juice?)

    Anyway, I will still try waterless if I happen to open up pomegranate and it’s magically of the quality and peelability in the video.





  • Thank you for taking the time and effort to link the full video and also summarizing the relevant content for us!

    I agree with you. I wouldn’t have leaned on the Old Testament either. I think most religious arguments are fairly logically consistent, it’s the whole “Should we have a static book of morals that we never modify?” question that we need to tackle.

    I suppose if Kirk was saying that we don’t have to follow the customs of the authors, just the “God given” content, then one could retort that anti man-to-man passages are likely the customs of the time, not the word of God (though let’s be honest, pretty sure even Jesus would have been homophobic).

    Ok this is a soft rebuttal because I agree we need to fix affordability asap, but is intensification really the right path?

    Like something else needs to be fixed or these super condos will just enable politicians to import even more people to maintain the unaffordability.





  • I keep thinking about this angle. Maybe it’s a case of a double standard being ok? Like if some group of people are like “Don’t worry about me, I don’t need any empathy” and others say, “I hope you will show me empathy” then I don’t see why a single standard has to be applied.

    Not sure if you agree with this analogy but for example as a male, I don’t mind if a woman says something to me that might be considered intimidating if the roles were reversed. Sure, I need to be mindful of whether she might cause harm to someone who isn’t me, but again, I don’t need to apply a single universal approach to myself if I know in my heart it’s not necessary.

    Anyway, maybe the stronger rebuttal is “That’s not what he meant”.

    For a while I’ve been meaning to memorize all the two digit squares but of course I then fail to practice them, so I’m not very far along. But that would help you with this too, not to mention you can start doing some square roots too.

    For quick and dirty I’d probably just go with 37*38 = 40*40 -> 16% which is kinda close to 14% eh?
