The restaurant I used to manage made it from scratch. It doesn’t have the chemical-ly taste. I don’t like the bottled store bought stuff at all and if my ex didn’t own the restaurant I’d order from them regularly.

“The rest of the U.S. could not survive without California” ftfy.

I remember when these tubes were laid out at gas stations; a little bell would ring, alerting the attendant who filled your tank, checked the air in your tires, checked your oil and washed your windshield.

Weren’t trade wars a great thing and easy to win last week?

I had nothing better to do.

Good point. I’d also add that because the internet is still in its infancy we basically have no idea how to wield its power yet and, likely, as a result, we will destroy ourselves before we figure it out.

Right now we aren’t. It will eventually correct itself but shit will be weird for awhile.

At this point, it still feels like a mess we can get out of by voting in 2018 & 2020. I don’t want to break the system. In fact, some of the scariest things to me have been the extent to which Trump & Co have been breaking existing bipartisan norms. To my mind, breaking the system makes recovery from this disaster…

How about just in general:

I don’t think there is as much an issue with driving incompetence as there is with the majority of people being completely self centered and overwhelmed with greed. A refusal to wait their turn and treat others as if they have just as much right to use the paved surface as they do. Combine this with a lack of…

Really cool that you were able to turn the molestation of children into an opportunity to talk about your (stupid) political beliefs.

VPN. BBC or CBC. Seriously, that’s the only way to avoid NBC’s “if it ain’t American it ain’t shit” coverage.

The podcast You Must Remember This did a series on Jane Fonda and Jean Seberg and really goes into depth on this part of Jane’s life. It was a complete set up.

The whole Hanoi Jane thing was a setup. She was a pretty naive peace protester who jumped at the opportunity to show the North Vietnamese as human beings who wanted peace as much as people in the US did. The North Vietnamese exploited this by cajoling her to pose on a anti-aircraft gun.

And here I always thought that if I wanted portrait mode instead of landscape mode, I would turn my phone 90 degrees before taking a picture. Who knew it’s only available on the Pixel 2 or iPhone.

I always use 50/50 italian sausage and ground beef. It makes for way more flavorful lasagna.

See my reply to kaizen. Tl;dr — I just built the room & upgraded the audio, and am waiting for prices on quality 4K projectors to come down a bit before upgrading the video.

“The best pasta sauce has three ingredients.”

To put it more compactly: if you change Obamacare’s name to Trumpcare but leave the rest of the program exactly the same, Trump’s poorly informed, cult of personality supporters will immediately reverse course and declare it the best thing ever.
