  1. Pretty sure I read that cinnamon’s benefit to meat is that it masks the flavor of meat gone bad. Maybe it was cinnamon combined with nutmeg.
  2. Nothing but gimps, all the way down.
  3. In hindsight, Joe should have pulled a Lincoln. Suggesting so at the time brought admonitions of habeas corpus. If only we could have foreseen what was coming. Oh wait, we did see it coming.
  4. Where’s Slim Whitman when we need him?
  5. This is why some people spend time imagining the most painful means of revenge.
  6. Why not spend some money to fix the security issue? Those satellites have storm assessment capabilities other satellites lack. Seems like code ought be cheaper than new hardware.
  7. A Calvinball court.
  8. One way to frame this situation is enough people have withdrawn their consent to be governed, according to our laws, and the lege needs to find a way forward without jack booted thugs, activist judges, and a power mad executive dictating to the people.
  9. Wrong thread
  10. The government is refusing to recognize detainees’ civil rights. Habeas corpus goes back to the Magna Carta. Any thoughts, @sheeeit? https://www.npr.org/2025/08/04/1256727547/1a-08-04-2025
  11. No chance there’s a fair election. A landslide D victory threatens the regime in absolute terms. Article 2 section 4, don’t you know.
  12. Yeah, no. At least, your proportions are incorrect. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ice-detentions-non-criminal-immigrants-violent-crime-convictions-analysis/
  13. CPB required taxpayer money because Congress voted to appropriate money for that purpose. This Congressional majority ran on reducing the budget, and, instead, bloated the budget. Arguing CPB is a reason for the cost overrun is trolling, because the cost of CPB is minuscule. Ignoring the reasons why the budget shot skywards is disingenuous, and that, too, is the behavior of a troll.
  14. I know this says more about me than them, but I thought I heard that woman say their plan was to go out and show the world “our clit.” So, can anyone tell me what was said?
  15. PBS has a reputation for getting the facts correct. It also has a reportedly slight bias: center-left. Calling that bias propaganda, as others have done, is ludicrous. Getting exercised by a slight lean to the left of center is your prerogative. I’m more concerned by news outlets that fabricate news, like FOX. More so, given the number of FOX employees employed in the executive branch of government.
  16. Yeah, I needed John Oliver to explain all that to me.
  17. Dammit. Just when I dared believe it wasn’t scat porn talk.
  18. “This program was made possible with contributions by viewers like you.”
  19. Dawned on me that the Surly username @Ag with kids describes, not a family man, but a salesman. At least that is what tracks as a continuing supporter of this regime.
  20. I’ve had matcha served the way it is served in the ancient tea ceremony. Very formal, and also elitist. Nevertheless, its roots are grounded in natural beauty. The tea tastes of chlorophyll, I am told. For whatever reason, it made me think of the ocean. Maybe I thought of seaweed, because it isn’t salty or fishy. It’s not unpleasant, but it must be an acquired taste.
  21. Read. You might learn something. Bears repeating that federal overruns skyrocket under R administrations, and contract under D administrations.
  22. Freeloading? Here’s the meta view of freeloading: https://www.bls.gov/productivity/
  23. Eliminating health insurance companies would save the citizens approximately 450 billion a year, if we are talking about cutting and saving. https://www.citizen.org/news/fact-check-medicare-for-all-would-save-the-u-s-trillions-public-option-would-leave-millions-uninsured-not-garner-savings/
