Also, for Buffistas who rent: approximately how much of your monthly income do you spend on rent? And how much is too much?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Cookery types--if I use sour cream instead of yoghurt when making banana bread, what are the likely effects? Should I bump up the baking powder to compensate for slightly less acidity? Bump up the liquids to compensate for the thicker texture?

So does the conversation between two conservative coworkers talking about the evils of socialized medicine and "cut and run" qualify as workplace harassment?
I think I'd take "cut and run" over "stay and pray", but I think there are other options.
