  1. You can send it to me, and we can both watch it tank together.
  2. Doubtful. But he's not going to trial with those jury instructions without rulings from higher courts.
  3. What were his health reasons for retiring?
  4. It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.
  5. I insulted no one but Trump. LCdS are amazing.
  6. Where have I seen that facial expression before? Ah, yes! It all makes sense. This investment opportunity seems appropriate for the penny-wise.
  7. Breaking Bad did it better. If we could just get Dark Brandon's face superimposed over the Walter White stand-in in the video, we'd be onto something. Democrats: "the colour is BLUE; the quality is pure."
  8. Can't remember if I posted this before, but it might be worth a repost.
  9. One Christmas (1989), my grandfather recorded the pay-per-view of the Stones' Steel Wheels show where Axl and Izzy came out and did Salt of the Earth with the Stones. It was pretty sick.
  10. Vigilance certainly is the key, and someone worse/smarter may come along. But I think Trump, to a large degree, was a perfect storm of awful and resonanting notoriety, and just any old chode with his playbook won't be enough to get the rubes off the couch or to empty their wallets further. This is my hope anyway.
  11. At this point, I've resigned myself to the fact that nearly all of his supporters who haven't seen the light simply are lost. There is no reasonable discussion to be had. When it comes to a couple of my family members, smart though they may otherwise appear, the best we can do is the detente of not talking about politics at all.
  12. Hey, he was hot, and he was hungry (and racist).
  13. "We" as in Trump and his ilk. Good. But the United States will continue to have elections without Trump.
  14. This is refreshing. https://www.cleveland.com/news/2024/03/our-trump-reporting-upsets-some-readers-but-there-arent-two-sides-to-facts-letter-from-the-editor.html Our Trump reporting upsets some readers, but there aren’t two sides to facts: Letter from the Editor Published: Mar. 30, 2024, 8:16 a.m.
  15. Warren's vocals gave me chills. Good stuff!
  16. I realized that I misread his post, and edited my response (too late). You've hit the nail right on the hammer: it's a matter of basic, human decency.
  17. Generally speaking, I no more want politics in a church than I want a church in my politics. But Pro-LGBTQ+ and being kind to other people doesn't strike me as political, but rather, basic human decency. We greatly are outnumbered.
  18. As is often said, Christianity wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for a great majority of the Christians.
  19. For what it's worth, the Episcopalian church we have been attending since leaving the Methodist church we attended once it went "Global" has said, in no uncertain terms, that politics and the like have no place there. They also seem to be an understanding lot when it comes to those of us who aren't always led by blind faith. It seems to me to be quite well-attended by white people, black people, Latinos, and LGTBQ alike. It was a breath of fresh air in MAGA-ridden east Texas to be sure. And they have booze at the chili cook off, as Jesus would have wanted.

    Gumbo

    So after a little reflection, here's my review. It's delicious, and I'd make it again. But gumbo the traditional way is better. To get this to hold together, you have to add more rice than I prefer and reserve some of the liquid, which holds most of the flavor of gumbo. When I do it again, I'll definitely take some of the reserved liquid and drizzle it over the top.

    Gumbo

    Held together well. Delicious!
  22. I suck at cutting pie, but you get the idea. Definitely delicious and held together well.
  23. I'm hoping its being in the fridge overnight worked some magic. But if it's a goopy mess, it'll be a tasty one.
