The lady in NC was claiming religious freedom, but peaceable assembly is better than that. 

Fun part is that an allegation against Biden for what Trump has repeatedly done and confessed to, will get the greater evil re-elected. And will get people to think that Biden is the predator and not [also] Trump. There are very, very few clean hands in politicians of any duration. Not saying we shouldn’t look for…

1. Bed Bugs wasn’t about actual bedbugs.

Option 2 - if it’s important to you to wear such a mask, cover that mask with a fabric mask like others are wearing. Choose a full coverage style to minimize leakage because the n95 or respirator may be bulky or have awkward angles.

I am definitely not better than you at sewing! I only have high school Home Ec skills (>20 yrs ago) and pulled an unused entry-level sewing machine out of storage, and when I realized I’d be making enough to justify it, I bought a nice $250 Brother (took forever to find)). My new machine and practice mean my seams are…

I agree on your reasoning: use a drop of Dawn for bell peppers, apples, and tomatoes (anything where I eat the skin), and I have one soapy hand, and use it to wash multiple pieces of vegetables. Rinse thoroughly. Just cold water for lettuce. Potatoes and mushrooms don’t get soap, but they definitely get a brush or…

Or songbirds. Fluffy, chubby little songbirds.

A mask is as simple as a scarf/bandanna or a T-shirt and two regular rubber bands. Please don’t excuse away your responsibilities over a really easy supply issue - it also will make others around you feel better. Healthy isn’t the issue and never has been; the potential to shed this virus as a pre-symptomatic or…

WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE?! They’re at my grocery, too, and I want their heads. Shop solo, and definitely don’t be chatty with each other as you pass me (going the wrong way, doofuses), wear masks (they’re for my protection not yours!!), and read the signs. Plus, in addition to the clearly marked signs on the floors and…

Honestly the ideal protocol is one person does the shopping, so leave your husband at home and give him other errands. My husband can be a face toucher, and definitely wouldn’t do things the way I would do them, so I cannot imagine trying to shop with him right now. We run no errands together anymore because my…

Are you, like me (also slowly making masks), befuddled by the scads of crocheted ones - and esp. the ones with the large holes in the middle? I guess these are supposed to cover the N95s people are wearing and not be stand-alone? I worry enough about the pinholes from holding my fabric pieces together as I sew, but…

No, it was a criticism of some lazy reporting that was essentially a cut and paste from the morning shows. I clicked eagerly and was expecting better than a Today Show synopsis, since normally we get better here. I prefaced about my employer because the mouthbreathers were going to say I was being defensive - and I…

Agree - this kitchen is at least 11 years old, and no way refrigeration is only drawers. Impractical. https://cotedetexas.blogspot.com/2009/12/uncomplicated-nancy-meyers-own-home.html is a comparison of her house to her movies houses, but the kitchen photo is narrower frame than this one. Definitely there’s a paneled…

What if Ashley learns that crazy, sick, desperate rich people have been doing crazy, sick, desperate, rich people shit to get well all these years? Like going out of the country for moonshot “experimental therapy” quackery for cancer and the like. Andy Kaufman’s not actually dead, you know?

Nah - that’s what we want to believe, but that Washington Post article last week or so was pretty damning about that damn Wuhan Lab very close to the wet market. Bats will kill us all - whether we’re eating them, living with them, climbing in a hollowed out tree filled with bat shit (Ebola), or just running a pretty…

With all due respect, this article is not a particularly broad or objective view. It is understandably populist but a narrower picture of the real picture. Up front, my employer (a small business) did not take funds because we determined we were lucky enough NOT to qualify. But we essentially had to explain to others…

I don’t throw things away (it’s a problem), so I bet I’m sitting within 20 feet of at least one old Rouge Pulp (probably the second one from the left). It was very sticky. Let me tell you two lies in that video. She wouldn’t have been able to cleanly run her teeth across her lips or smack her lips together as cleanly…

That’s a biological response so you won’t eat or interact with nasty things that could eat, hurt or infect you. 

I am local to Bryan, have TWO large dogs (and at times a third), and have a GTI. The GTI is 100% a very good answer. Seats fold flat. Fun to drive. Easy to own, maintain, operate, fuel. Cameras and parallel park assistance available. Not so nice that you feel bad if the dog gets hair, street dirt, drool on it. As…

Absolutely. It’s a tough time to be a kid, period. A kid could have a sibling, but the age disparity is so great as to not guarantee quality interaction. Or they fight. Or one is special needs. Or one is a huge introvert. Whatever. There are a hundred different reasons a kid with one or more siblings is not better off…
