I love this! I want to see what FiveThirtyEight or whatever that site is has to say.

Huevos rancheros tho

In CBS News’ coverage, I read that the husband had a head injury several months ago, and that his wife says his personality changed after that. He was involuntarily committed to a mental health facility in November. Not defending the guy- adding in information that his wife gave to the media.

Thank you! I keep a coffee grinder separate for herbs from my garden, and I just never thought of throwing dried mushrooms in there.

I recently went to a baby shower, and the baby was gifted a Pendleton baby blanket. The auntie of the mom-to-be shared the history of Pendleton blankets, acknowledging that they came to her tribe along with white settlers, the wage economy, and capitalism. She went on to share more about these blankets, saying that on…

Do you buy them dried or dry them yourself? Can you point me to a tutorial on this?

I was on a day trip with some of my husband’s extended family, who I was meeting for the second or third time. At lunch, someone offered me a fresh jalapeño and I said “nah” then a minute later, I decided to take one. Someone said, “Looks like we got ourselves a mindswitcher over here”, which is apparently a line from…

Whiskeyprayer was referencing these types of attitudes in show business. Here’s a quote from the first one about Jerry Lewis, where he says women comedians/comediennes? don’t offend him, but that they “set him back” to see because he thinks of a woman as “a producing machine that brings babies into the world.”

My husband and I almost always split the tab, no matter who ordered what. I haven’t put much thought into it before this minute, but the fact that we split costs equally makes me happy. We split the grocery expenses in half too. I save my receipts and he gives me half in cash. We split the utilities and rent too. We…

Same here with Kinja constantly booting me off. I became much more of a lurker when it became impossible to comment.

I have the same trouble logging in. I get booted off after clicking on anything, so I can pretty much only lurk.

I keep getting booted off, and have to log back in after every click, or if I migrate to another Kinja site, so right now, commenting is uphill both ways in snow. I can lurk without losing my login, so that’s about all I do anymore here.

The Laura Dern/Baron Davis couple is soooo unexpected and I love them for it! She’s 12 years older than him! She seems to be a sapiosexual, having dated nerdy auteur types in the past (Jeff Goldblum, married Ben Harper) so now I am looking at Baron Davis with new hearteyes. I realized I was a Laura Dern fan when her…

I want a book on the life of Grace Boggs. More than anything.

The racial allegory stuff would have been a little more subtle with a white lead, yeah. But then we wouldn’t have had the opening scene in a low SES neighborhood to establish the societal shifts in intolerance, I s’pose.

I liked it. We watched it on Christmas night after a week of everyone in the house taking turns being sick, and no one felt like watching anything Christmasy because of how it is being confined for hours in rooms with your relatives, my side on Christmas Eve and his on Christmas day. I fell asleep about 3/4 in, and I…

The Dave Ramsey stuff has been good for my husband and I. He sprinkles in references to scripture as the basis of dealings with money, just so ya know. I listen to his YouTube videos at my desk at work, and listen to his audiobooks (checked out from the library) during my work commute. I tried reading Suze Orman books…

Make sure you can see him spreading the masa. I invited a tamale newb to help out today, and after they finished cooking, I discovered that she made tiny tamales, like the width of two fingers. We had the giant olla of meat between us, and I wasn’t visually inspecting along the way. They’re delicious though, and I…

I’ve been a Solange stan for years, and have seen SZA twice. I love them both, and this video was a snooze. It had no concept other than SZA in empty spaces doing gymnastic-type dance moves, and yes I am aware SZA was a nationally ranked gymnast as a teen. I have huge hair too, so I appreciated the shots of SZA’s mane…
