I'm rather bored of the constant pop up ads on my current one that I paid for ads to be removed for years ago before more recently they changed to a subscription requirement for advert removal.
I'm looking for something easy to use that has no ads by default or has a one time payment to remove them. Extra features such as tags/folders would be great but not 100% required. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

My favourite way of doing this was through gram flour (mixture of chickpeas and lentils) pancakes since the flour itself is 25% protein.
I blended a ratio of 60g:120g flour and water with a teaspoon of tumeric, salt, black pepper. Added some chopped up spring onions and fried pancake thin. (not fluffy american pancakes though)
They're really good with chutney and for more protien rolling a fried egg up inside is good.

Tardigrade Link ParentMaybe the gas is more okay than lethal injection. That doesn't make it right by any measure. If they're set on the death penalty just use a large dose of fentanyl or bring back the guillotine...Maybe the gas is more okay than lethal injection. That doesn't make it right by any measure. If they're set on the death penalty just use a large dose of fentanyl or bring back the guillotine which is messy but quick.

Tardigrade LinkLooks like they've not made a remake of aoe2 which I was a little worried about. I love the look of trees as cover for ambushes and manning troops on walls.Looks like they've not made a remake of aoe2 which I was a little worried about.

I get where you're coming from with that interpretation but I've always understood it as more up to date with all the memes and trending things on twitter and people who keep up with a constant drama that only concerns other people on the internet and nothing in real life.
