If you’re good at controlling the temp on a propane grill, you can go ahead and do it. But you’ve got to find a way to introduce smoke into it. Either through some chips or something. Ideally, you would just smoke the thing. You should have a very neutral wood, instead of something extremely fragrant like a fruit…

Native Austinite here. Franklin has probably the best brisket that I’ve ever eaten. It’s worth it for one go around. But, yeah, there are places that get pretty near it and without the ridiculous line. Louie Mueller’s BBQ in Taylor, TX, (a bit outside of Austin) is one. Another is Cooper’s BBQ in Llano and City Meat…

Why did you make it all froo-froo

Aaron Franklin worked with KLRU and made a series of kind of how-tos:

When I was a kid, growing up in a small town, we played with fireworks because there was nothing else to do. We’d shoot roman candles at each other, throw fireworks at each other, smoke bombs and what not.

One time, one of my friends decided that he was going to throw a smoke bomb in the front door of my house, and it…

Came here to post this, actually.

For the first line; I’m a guy and a girl said that to me exactly after I asked her on a date. She used it as her reason for not wanting to go on a date with me. It was really confusing and hurtful but she delivered it in a way that I think she thought was going to soften the blow for me.

Communities should be setting up their own community policing programs and showing that these thugs aren’t needed.

No, it’s exactly as crazy as Ruffus is making it out to be. Perfectly healthy people are convinced by quacks that they have toxins that are ready to kill them at any moment. They never name these toxins, but they apparently exist and you do x and y (colonic cleansing with a chili powder addition, etc.) to rid yourself…

It’s not about whether it will “hurt his feelings.” Treating this as if it is an issue, like CNN has, can actually hurt his chances at getting the nomination. People aren’t going to read the essay, then conclude that, oh, well, it was a sloppily written essay about destructive gender norms (I still don’t understand…

It was written in 1972. I mean, Christ, if he was getting on his soapbox and still talking this stuff, you’d have a point, but people are allowed to get wiser from the ages of 31 to 73, right? I’m sure you’ve written and said some pretty stupid shit, too, even if it was well-intentioned.

I’ve got 8gb of ram on an old ass Dell running Ubuntu 14.04. Chrome hasn’t ever really crashed on me. Know what does? Motherfucking Firefox. All the time. I just recently messed around with the configuration to let me open more than 2 tabs at once, but anymore than that, then Firefox instantly meltsdown.

Someone was reading Blood Meridian.

Huh. So that’s what the commodification of gaming looks like.

“Children develop, and dogs just stay dumb.”

My mom and I have a rocky relationship due to her alcoholism. She’s a loving person, and has always expressed her love for me, but when she started drinking she could turn quick on a dime. She would verbally abuse me when I was a kid, when she was drunk.

Okay... well... it seems like you didn’t actually read what I said, so I guess I’ll say it again.

Yeah, it would, actually. Immigrants have usually made up much of union membership, historically, and when there was a strong union movement, they benefited very well from it.

This is the second time I’ve seen a comment of yours like this. I get the feeling you don’t know what you’re talking about.

They have the ability to seek help, even if they are here in an undocumented status. They have rights in this country to not be abused or have their wages stolen from them, without having to experience the attendant harassment from Immigration. Unions also do not care about the immigration status of their membership.…
