Things are really different now due to the limited capacities at many restaurants. I have absolutely had to do the full wait during that brunch timeframe, especially out where my parents live in the suburbs. One Sunday we tried four different sit-down places that all had waits of 20-40 minutes before giving in and…

There are a bunch of different brands that do Mi Goreng and it’s what I’ve become addicted to as I like the different seasonings and also more of a dry noodle. I will usually boil some kale and chopped carrots in with the noodles to make it “healthier” then add a scrambled egg and any leftover proteins to make it a…

Yeah, if there is an H Mart anywhere close by you can get tubs of pre-marinated meat. My favorite was always the short ribs but the chicken was also good. I have a propane grill so can just throw stuff on there and it’s a quick yummy dinner. I miss the banchan though, definitely can’t make all of those myself!

Poor white people also have been taught to believe that the main thing keeping them from being rich white people is a black or brown person who is willing to do their job for less. And it wasn’t always this way - Black Messiah did a good job of showing how someone built a coalition of the poor and working class across…

Seems unlikely. Lachlan is really the only one left driving the News side now. And the majority of the Murdoch fortune is now in Disney stock, which is in the crapper. I think it’s much more likely that the other children will continue to grit their teeth and cash the checks than create any real change, or at best…

Your story and others on this thread underscore the importance of class in our country, which is often obscured due to even deeper divisions of race/ethnicity and the false belief that the US is an open society where anyone can work their way into success. It’s something that became the most clear to me when I became…

Murdoch’s estate is basically done - there were a whole bunch of trusts set up when Wendi Deng was pushing for her kids to inherit and Anna Murdoch and her kids ensured they would retain control of the country. James Murdoch has already stepped away from Fox but Lachlan is really driving things for News; he did help ou…

I work for a company that tracks advertising and was just working on a project about this. There has indeed been a major boycott of Carlson’s show and few major national brands are still supporting it. However, Carlson has the highest ratings for the network and people who switch on Carlson also tend to just leave the…

My personal soup dip favorite is Knorr’s leek with sour cream, but it can be hard to track down that flavor of Knorr’s!

One of my favorites is Coriander Chutney (pretty standard Indian condiment, Swad is a mainstream brand) mixed with plain yogurt. It’s got a nice herby flavor with a little spicy kick and goes great with pita chips or drizzled on top of any food with Indian spicing.

JFC there should be a NSFW tag on this! Pizza with cheese embedded in the entire crust? Tacos shells and pastry made from cheese???

It’s interesting, during the height of the George Floyd protests last year I have a good friend who said this to me, someone who I genuinely do not think is a giant bigot. But there’s some very smug and lazy thinking behind that kind of statement. I’m an Asian woman who votes and gives money to progressive causes and,…

...Armie Hammer enters the chat.

“When you reheat the soup it “goes away” anyway.”

Is there a Trader joe’s near you? They have had various types of Korean marinated meats in either the freezer or meat sections, definitely worth a look. 

Branagh has practically been delivering fan service compared to the travesty that was John Malkovich in the ABC Murders. Did you see that POS? It wasn’t the actor’s fault but the “dark” take on that story that had Poirot at one point BEING A SUSPECT IN THE CRIMES was just not on. I gave up partway through since it was…

I get what you’re saying - saying that celebrities are in a position of power over fans, even if said fans are adults, does seem to deny said fans of agency and also seems far from sex-positive. At the same time, it’s a situation that can easily slide into disrespect and then abuse. Strangely enough, one book that…

My favorite is #FledCruz, which is quite a bit shorter ;-). 

The wife texted a group of neighbors and friends about their plans and one of them leaked the chain to the NYT.

I was going to say, those girls should definitely form a support group with Kellyanne’s daughter.
