All you need is a bulldozer and a cement truck.

Small set of whetstones so I can keep my kitchen knives absurdly sharp. Sharp vs "meh" vs dull knives make a huge difference in speed, comfort and safety. I've scuffed my knives a bit getting into things, but at least they're sharp as hell and touching them up only takes a few minutes.

Also it's hardly unconventional, but a quick read thermometer (fold-out type) is almost a must.

Black, no flavoring aside from the tea, brewed strong with a small splash of milk and 1-2 tsp of sugar for a large mug.

This is on .ml, so I'm sure we'll see some of it shortly. Or this post disappears out of a window.

The potential existence of sentient life out there? Sure. Space is big.

Anything that's ever interacted with us or is likely in a position to ever be able to do so? No. Space is big.

Getting banned from .ml is ... pretty much expected sooner or later, unless you're a tankie.

Don't forget the terrible crime of russophobia, which is when you point out the shitty things Russia does. Only "Amerikkka" bad.

It emphatically does not mean that. Tankies tend to shill for Russia and China (CCP), neither of which is communist or socialist. I don't even mean that in a "no true scotsman" way, they are literally market economies with astronomical wealth inequality.

Because when you simply ask for donations, the vast majority of people don't.

I feel like you need to have a pretty good sense of someone’s tastes to make a “trust me”-style recommendation like this.

You do. Also, if you ask specifically for movies you have to be unprepared for, won't that make you prepared for them?
