T2 diabetic, super happy to find I can eat everything in your recipe.  Thanks for this suggestion.

Interesting article, I have been more or less single for a decade since my divorce, and I am not lonely. In fact, I sometimes find it more work to try to go on meet and greet dates, and have to push myself to do so. At 50, I have a pretty interesting life, some very satisfying friendships, and find it difficult to get…

There’s another option:  don’t have rebound relationships.  Heal up from the divorce a bit, get a sense of who you are first, then start dating.  

Thank you for the spoilers...I wasn’t sure I wanted to watch the shows, and your description makes me think perhaps I do.

Born in CA in the late 60's, Mexican American mother whose parents discouraged her from having other Latino friends, or speaking Spanish. We bought Velveeta because it was cheap, along with Kraft Singles. On some level my mother also thought it was “white food” and that’s what she fed us—alongside corn tortillas,…

Brilliantly researched and written. So effectively he is a Dreamer? This whole thing is maddening, including just the fracking unrest it creates in the country at large. While he’s lucky to have some money, that won’t last long if he’s separated from his primary market. And that doesn’t excuse how painfully difficult…

This same issue plagues Latino home births in Texas--the birth certificates in some cases are being declared as incorrect or illegal and those children then face deportation hearings. 

I neither got a pay bump AND my refund will be lower because my home office deduction was eliminated.  Thanks GOP.

Dude, I totally want my God to be the Great Bear Ursa!

Yes! I am utterly baffled how self-professing sscifi-loving nerds are not flocking to this! Not to mention folks who like seeing diverse casts, strong women of color, more science-based effects (than not), etc.

She’s still around?

Star Trek imagines that humanity got its shit together and then began space exploration. The Expanse is probably a more realistic view of how it will actually happen—humanity will take all of it’s foibles like tribalism, greed, etc. with us when we finally begin space exploration. The Expanse also explores real world…

We need a Piers Morgan initiative, a la Dan Savage’s Rick Santorum initiative.

Yes!  I’m a biracial 50yo woman--when this first came out I was moved to tears!  I’d waited my whole life to see my family portrayed so simply.

No I’m not. You don’t hit 12 year olds. You don’t hit children in public. You don’t hit children. Period.

Holy shit!

Horrific.  I don’t care what the lead up is/was.  Someone on Twitter commented that clearly this man doesn’t see her as human, much less a child.  I’m shocked he was out so quickly.  I hope he gets his ass thrown in jail for a long, long, long time.

I see, I took you overly literally. ;) Hope I didn’t come off as a children’s book reading fascist. Yeah, had my share of books I never wanted to read again too. And I’m sure my parents got tired of my fascination with a specific early 70's era Sesame Street anthology’s story with the stanza:

I’m with you on the every now and then—my point had more to do with the post about kicking to the curb an entire segment of books that a large number of kids usually respond well to based upon adult preferences only.

Hard disagree on the Dr. Seuss books. The silly nonsense of something like “One Fish Two Fish” can get old real fast on repeat readings. I’ve personally never been a fan of most of his work.
