Actually, a quick pan sear in butter is a great way to finish a filet if you’ve sous-vide-d it properly...

If we can achieve 20% the speed of light, which recent research suggests, that knocks it down to 200ish years (not accounting for acceleration and deceleration).

From your fingers to Satan’s ears, mate.

I consider myself a fairly militant atheist, and I’m generally cool with atheist Buddhism... as are many of us. Just for thought; no hostility implied.

Disagree. The Abrahamic god is one of the most hateful, misogynist, racist fucks in all of recorded history: it is precisely because of those traits that atheists and antitheists despise the wings of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam that seek to inact their personal “moralities” into state law in an effort to give…

Be careful with that terrorist attack talk... I doubt he’s read V for Vendetta yet, and I don’t want him getting ideas.

I realize “sous vide” is the cool kids thing to do these days, but... isn’t this essentially coddling an egg? Which, in my opinion — and my gf tells me I am not always right — is more fun? It can be a DIY breakfast bar, and you get the bonus of serving in neat little antique ceramics. My lawn: gerroffit?

That movie is fantastic. I mean, I normally heart me some solid B-horror — and can even stomach most of the first Human Centipede — but Teeth is in a league of its own. My vote for best cinematic shot is the one shot from floor level from behind, looking between the main characters leg to the bed. Amazing.

I’m very late to this conversation, but: a lot of it has to do with the geographic location, the types of detonations (i.e., ground burst, air burst, atmospheric), the type of weapon (A-bomb vs. H-bomb), and the yield of the explosion — all of which would affect the amount of and types of material irradiated and…

I went to Brave by myself — had a great time!

I’ll be damned if he can spell NPR.

Foot?! More like dick.

thank you! :)

Technically, I believe she is the Third Lady — fourth, if you count Ivanka.

As a definitively hetero dude, that looks comfy AF. Want. Unrelated: gf recently declined to assist me with finding super comfy boho-ish skirts for home loungewear — like, made out of sweatpants material, or flannel, and maybe a nice linen one for breezy spring days when my kilt is perhaps too short. Anybody have a…

Here’s the thing, though — there are more of us than there are of them. As the system is broken, stop playing by the rules: if you are in a solidly blue gerrymandered district and there is a nearby gerrymandered district that could be flipped through the influx of voting progressives, move there and flip it. I’d…

PA resident here. Registered as a Republican in my youth — was too lazy to change it, despite voting Ind/Dem my whole life with very few exceptions — and now maintain it for the purpose of voting in primaries because PA feels about Independents the same way the USA feels about atheists when it comes to religious…

If this garbage passes, until such a time as it is over-turned: I bet there are fellows who would be willing to claim to be the fathering party and provide said required written, informed consent... sort of like a much more aggressive PP escort.

I suspect his “feelings” aren’t fully developed, and would probably more appropriately be referred to as “widdle fee-fees.”
