The pineapple (Ananas comosus) is a tropical plant with an edible fruit; it is the most economically significant plant in the family Bromeliaceae.
The pineapple is native to South America, where it has been cultivated for many centuries. The introduction of the pineapple plant to Europe in the 17th century made it a significant cultural icon of luxury. Since the 1820s, pineapple has been commercially grown in greenhouses and many tropical plantations. The fruit, particularly its juice, has diverse uses in cuisines and desserts.
Pineapples grow as a small shrub; the individual flowers of the unpollinated plant fuse to form a multiple fruit. The plant normally propagates from the offset produced at the top of the fruit or from a side shoot, and typically matures within a year.

“As a leftist, those pro-LGBTQ+ housing is a human right anti cop ultra leftists are worse than the literal nazis who want nothing but genocide for all minorities.” 
This just REEKS of REDDIT. I bet this so called leftist would change up real quick when it comes to neopronouns, police, prison, black or brown people, etc.

I thought it was tacky that the people there said “flatlined” instead of “killed”, but then I lived to see “unalived” become common slang less than a decade later
Seriously considering saving up like $850 to meet with this specialist who seems like my best chance of getting help or finding a cause for these health problems I’ve had for the past 8 years
Pros: he is rated really well by a local magazine, on his website it says he helps with complicated health issues, I could do a consultation that I think is free, it might actually help and I could go into remission or maybe there’s even a cure
Cons: it’ll cost a minimum of $850 just for seeing him and getting the basic labs and will be even more if I need more testing or get prescribed some medication, he might not be able to help me/could be scamming desperate people like me, there might be a name for what I have and no treatment which would kinda ruin my will to live
I hate being ill

Lmao Leroy jenkins caught a temp ban after all that. Didn’t need to keep angryposting but did and ended up (accidentally, I assume) misgendering and was already on thin ice so they (the mods. I’m not misgendering anyone) got him.
Hexbear party line on giving 2 weeks notice? Just accepted a job offer and they wanna know a start date. Kinda wanna just have friday be my last day and chill for a week or so before my new job.
little bit of criticism of Dolly
Parton never made a public statement or took a political stance regarding the conflict in Gaza during her lifetime.
she occasionally voiced broad calls for peace or expressed support during specific overseas events—such as dedicating a performance to people affected in Ukraine in 2022
This thread is fruit bat approved btw
Had an incredible dream last night where my dad read my thesis and disawowed me for being a dirty Marxist. There was a lot of commentary in the dream that I’ve heard all my life around here on all the lib reasons why communism just doesn’t work.
In the dream I ended up getting very angry at him and gave this huge lecture on materialism as a philosophy and a science and how it’s far better at explaining the world than any of the lib shit he has been spouting all his life.
One missed opportunity of Woke 1 was that we should have fucking obliterated those “No Added MSG” labels on food products. Why are those still there. Is there anyone under 60 that still thinks MSG is bad for you. Fucking racist shit pisses me off
I appreciate the warm reception of getting to this place. I’m still undoing the damage reddit and twitter did to me where I have to verbally joust everyone because everyone is brain fried and perpetually looking to dunk on you with some horatio caine one-liner for internet points.
