  1. I can’t right now. Ohio Republicans shortened the window for absentee voting (among other suppressive restrictions) so I can’t send in my ballot until 28 days before the election (Oct. 8). https://www.acluohio.org/en/news/hb-458-what-changed-and-why-does-it-harm-ohio-voters
  2. I think the abortion ban is to blame when doctors aren’t performing what used to be routine procedures for fear of being imprisoned over the GOP’s draconian new anti-abortion laws. I’ve heard countless stories from women saying doctors wouldn’t treat them because they weren’t sick enough yet so treatment was withheld because of legal concerns. Would you want to be the first doctor to test the legislation in court with your personal freedom and livelihood on the line?
  3. I think “soulless” was the word I heard used to describe her.
  4. See the uptick in violence against Asians amidst Trump’s rhetoric about the “China Virus” and “Kung Flu.”
  5. Check the shadows.
  6. Except the people targeted for repression/harassment/violence won’t be limited to Haitian immigrants who are here legally. Some citizens who happen to be black will probably also suffer.
  7. I heard that Don Jr. and Guilfoyle had already split up. Was that not the case?
  8. Too bad he failed to deliver on that promise.
  9. Not something I could’ve conceived.
  10. By then it will be too late.
  11. Send them a photoshopped picture?
  12. Are you addressing the shooters?
  13. Loomer doesn’t know Bill’s history with Trump.
  14. Might keep them handy because Trump sweats so much, being a rage-filled fat slob and all.
  15. Tell her to pull out her Bible and read Numbers 5:11-31. The Bible not only sanctions abortion, it instructs the rabbi how to cast the spell to perform one.
  16. He’s not doing it for himself. He’s doing it for Trump.
  17. We’ve all heard the incantations before. “Hocus Pocus!” “Abracadabra!” “Crowd Size!”
  18. I prefer his look before he managed to pull himself together and feign toughness, when he looked like a weak, frightened old man who had just shit himself.
  19. Not necessarily. First, that would be hard to pull off in secret without anyone finding out about it. Second, after he lost the election, he brought all kinds of batshit crazy people into his circle as long as they told him things he wanted to hear no matter how preposterous it was. Like Sidney Powell. I’m not making any assumptions. But that’s an unpopular opinion. I suppose if I were going to play the game of jumping to salacious conclusions I might speculate that when he was fucking her he’d have her say things like, “My name’s Alina and I’m a baaaad lawyer!”
  20. He doesn’t need to find her attractive as long as she’s telling him what he wants to hear.
  21. I don’t know who his counterpart would’ve been in the third Reich but he’ll be in charge of purging the Executive Branch of anyone who isn’t sufficiently loyal to Trump.
  22. I started out making Emeril’s red beans & rice recipe using stock and three kinds of pork. I was comfortable thinking ham hocks were the key ingredient to a great pot of beans. And I still believe that pork and stock are great ways to crank up the flavor. But then I got a lesson on minimalism and learned that keeping things simple can work out just fine. I found some of these little red “silk beans” at the Mexican market that I’d never noticed before. They were exactly like this bag: I bought the bag then went home and googled “frijol rojo de seda” and came up with some recipes and the following video which is as basic as it gets. They don’t soak the beans. They just put them in a pot of boiling water with an onion and a head of garlic and add salt at the end. That’s what I did. At a simmer it took 4 hours until they were tender. She looks like she keeps the water more at a boil. In the time it took my beans to cook, the onion halves and whole garlic cloves basically dissolved into the broth. Pretty close. Now I just give them a rough chop first. I found that I got a darker broth that was a deeper red color than hers. It’s very tasty. I’ve experimented with embellishing it by adding dried peppers. Pasillas work pretty well. But the simplicity of the recipe got me to rethink my approach to beans and it’s given me a lot more options. In my searching I came across a number of recipes for gallopinto (or gallo pinto, there doesn’t seem to be a consensus and I’m not sure which I prefer but I lean toward the latter). It fries the beans above with pilaf style rice with onions and peppers. That stuff is awesome and now when I make the beans I’ll make a pot of rice pilaf just to save for the next day to make gallopinto. I see these beans all over now and from various brands but since the first bag I bought was from Nicaragua, I went with the Nicaraguan recipe. https://eatsbythebeach.com/nicaraguan-gallo-pinto/ https://www.seriouseats.com/gallopinto-nicaraguan-rice-and-beans-recipe There’s a lot of versatility in how to make it. Adding Canadian bacon was a winner.
  23. “Nobody knew health care could be so complicated.” He’s a fucking moron and a fraud.
