According to Master Google: Activated nuts have been soaked in water and salt for a period of time, which starts off the germination or sprouting process, then dehydrated at a low temperature. Soaking increases the nutrient value of the nuts along with breaking down the problematic compounds that help enhance their…

You were served a cocktail in a repurposed tin can?

Oh, it wasn’t just Gronk. It was The Gronkowskis en masse. And while I do not want them running a space shuttle launch, they came across like perfectly charming, nice people.

Like, I am actively not a Patriots fan and I’m convinced the man can’t tie his own shoes and yet he and Marshawn Lynch together are so oddly charming.

Have you seen his Family Feud episode or that bit on Conan where he and Marshawn Lynch play Mortal Kombat?

Also that waviness looks different from the rest of the snow pictures. The bit on the right of the photo looks different from the bit on the left. Almost as if a tide had gone in and out the bit on the right.

And I don’t feel bad when I use one to kill a spider! I mean, I feel bad for the spider. But I don’t feel bad for damaging a book.

I loved the debate too! I think it was the best one, Republican or Democrat of this entire godforsaken election. I definitely came away feeling like I knew more and could better vote for one of the candidates. The more I listen to Bernie talk the more concerned I am that he has plans that sound great in theory but a)…

Them shits are expensive. Like Hell I’m burning mine.

Y’all, Hillary came ready to fight. Honestly, the more I hear the both of them talk, the more I lean towards Hillary.

Question - am I supposed to want to dress like the lady in the header photo? Because no. Not even on a bet.

I guess I just don’t believe that Paul Ryan’s kids or Reince Preibus’ kids are going to war. I don’t have the tiniest smidgen of faith that they wouldn’t pull every political string and favor they have to stop it. Kids with connections will always be ok and I just don’t can’t get behind that when lives are at stake.

That’s exactly why I don’t feel remotely bad for any of the Republican candidates. Sure it’s pathetic, but they were only too happy to court the monster when it was working for them. Now the monster is coming for them and they want me to do anything other than sit here and laugh? Nope, not happening.

I truly think that the Bush family is awful and GWB in particular should live the rest of his life feeling shame for what he did to the American people (he won’t, but that’s a different gripe) but I can’t even watch Jeb’s sad-trombone defeat because it’s just pathetic.

But even if we reinstated the draft, is there really a chance that their kids would be the ones seeing the war? I wasn’t alive during Vietnam so I can only go based on what I’ve discussed with those who were alive, but it seemed like those who were wealthier by and large found ways for their children to get out even…

I’m curious about military service for the wealthy versus the working-class - I’m not at all from a military family. My grandfather served in WWII but was fairly well-educated which meant he was not in infantry and my father didn’t serve in Vietnam due to medical inability. It’s my understanding that service is is…

I can’t wait for the bargaining phase, since he’s such a yugely phenomenal deal-maker.

This game of Death Is Not An Option sucks.

TBH, I’d vote for Gregoire if she ran on a national stage. I think she did a good job holding us together during the recession and the college system actually expanded during her tenure.
