Call Ford credit, see if they’ll give you the 6 month waiver they’re now offering.

Caught “Counterpart” when it landed on Prime recently. I’d suggest it for anyone who wants some flu pandemic-adjacent scripted drama.  JK Simmons and Olivia Williams are both fantastic in dual roles.

I make a chicken pie - with pastry crust - that is a huge hit with anyone who eats chicken and pastry. Crust, layer of shredded cheddar, layer of sauteed mushrooms and onions, layer of barely cooked chicken breast (thinly sliced) or thigh meat, more cheese, layer of blanched broccoli (or spinach or other green veg you…

This.  Democracy is ugly and you never get everything you want.  Suck it up, put on your big-person pants and keep fighting.  Change doesn’t happen overnight and big change only happens rarely.

It’s truly amazing that the people who most seem to understand the core aspects of Trek aren’t working on Trek. That said, Marc Bernardin, all around cool nerd, just started working on Picard as a supervising producer, so I’m tentatively hopeful about season 2. That said, I was pretty excited that Chabon was announced…

If you enjoy episodic, 90s-style, TNG Star Trek, it most definitely is enjoyable. A couple hiccups. A good deal of corniness. But that’s part of the whole package.

There’s something I find remarkable about my own capacity, even three-plus years in, to underestimate the absolute reckless incompetence of this administration.

“shut down all public contact to protect their precious little snowflake selves!”

“Reading these comments makes me think that Florida is YOLO at the moment.”

Yeah, out here in France catering is tanking stupidly fast too. No more big events allowed, and most companies are implementing meeting restrictions too, even small events that could still be ok are being cancelled because people don’t wanna take any risks...

It’s being hit a lot harder than restaurants for now, even…

Pluto TV already has a lot of old shows streaming with ads, including vintage “Doctor Who” and MST3K on their own dedicated channels 24/7. They work off of, mainly, the Shout Factory, Sony, MGM, and Paramount/Viacom catalogs. If you’re looking for some low cost goodies, there you go.

Someone gave me a bottle as a housewarming gift. I had 1 shot, never touched it again.

Can confirm. I’ve been making wine for nearly 20 years, I’m much more likely to have a beer or bourbon when I’m not in the cellar.

My daughter -a former bartender - loves Fernet. To me it tastes like a combo of Kiehls musk, Hi Karate aftershave and Scope.

That last one tracks.

While all of the wine professionals I know (winemakers, owners, bartenders) all have extensive wine collections, every one of them said that they don’t drink much wine outside of work because they’re around it all day.  

I work with convicts in an HACCP environment. You are absolutely correct.

I actually work with convicts in a clean-room; allow me to clarify how this works.

I think the big point here that should be focused on is not that more highways = more traffic, but to look at the reasons why there’s more traffic and tackle them directly. One thing is that they can’t show that adding highways caused the traffic, or that traffic wouldn’t have gotten even worse without adding them.

I’ve got no scruples and a WaPo subscription, so here ya go:
