putting it upside and covering with bacon is an old trick for cooking large, lean roasts of all types- the term is barding. it works quite a bit better if you use salt pork actually. what that does is protects the leaner meat by slowly rendering the fatty ‘shield’ and having it drip over the roast below. and by…

so does this mean john cho’s leg is healed? because that seems like a good story

just get a 65 lb dog who wants to be a body pillow. problem solves itself

maybe no?

at least MA is relatively tiny. i grew up in the adirondack park and now live in boston and the entire state of MA is smaller than one impressive but still remote state park in NY

they may not very much- depending on the amount its quite possible he’d be facing fines/probation/referral for treatment. illegal gun possession (with a conviction history of the same crime on your record) as a felony is quite a bit worse

i wore a few dresses when we did a version of some like it hot as our highschool musical. they’re fine, although i will say that i think that it would be silly for a modern woman to wear them outside of occasions that call for aesthetic reasons (they are objectively inferior to a pants/shirt combo if you want to…

and if it isn’t, grab the closest minority and call it a day

it is very difficult to take Walter G serious as anyone other than a crazy but loveable bad guy. i’m just waiting for him to murder the crap out of rob cordroy, as we all want to do

i watched this twice in the theater. halfway through the second time i realized that even things that were beloved to me could also be terrible. i never had a fandom again.

and yet, i’m not horribly against the prequels. they weren’t good, but they were trying to do something weird and interesting and they failed…

but austen also was lousy with the ‘good family, temporarily embarrassed’ trope. she was the clive cussler of her day 

i thought he had a seasonal job in California that paid for his semi-homeless existence. the whole thing just seemed like a damn shame, and an indictment of how our society fails the mentally ill

i’ve often felt like jane austin is the past equivalent of modern PBS- they import pop culture from england and we accept that its very.serious.art. because a british accent is involved. so to have our modern pulp channel take olden timey pulp and play it to its pulpy hilt should be fun

it astonished me as someone who grew up in NY (not even in the city, we were way upstate) that people thought donald was a real business man who wasn’t insane. he was considered a massive joke, even in upstate. that reality show rescued him in ways that require a lot of research. because before that, he was known as…

damnit man- schadenfreude is the act of feeling happy when random innocent people suffer misfortune (i.e. some random fella takes a digger and you can’t help but chuckle.) none of these trump fuckers are innocent people getting AFHV’d. they deserve all the shit they get

its propaganda

i haven’t seen it in forever, but i think you may be correct. what bothers me is the people who literally took him out to the bear fields- you can’t just drive your corolla up there. but to take a man who you clearly understood to be mentally ill and who you assumed would eventually die a horrific death out to the…

yeah, it depends- NYC being the size it is and being on the coast (so all suburbs extend in narrow ranges) its not unusual to have people who grew up in the city move to the suburbs and still describe themselves as NYCers, even if they move relatively far into the hudson river valley. its actually kind of considered…

more of a ‘we always called it that and kid brain still holds sway even in adulthood on some things’?

those are the same people who tell you they live in upstate ny and then give you a mt. krisco address
