“but didn’t get any good assignment”

Effectively communicated and sold her ideas to the general public?  When was the last time average Americans were talking about marginal tax rates?

House Financial Services and House Oversight?  Those are pretty good assignments. And she’s already been effective. 

It’s amazing how this irrelevant, powerless junior congressperson (as internet commenters full-throatedly insist she is at every opportunity) has got conservatives in such a tizzy. I thought she wasn’t important? Which was it? 

A couple of items:

Someone that does the math and sees that $9,100 buys a lot of gas.

Yep, bread is easy if you don’t get all worried about making bread. I’ve been making bread since I was a teenager. Not artisanal sourdough bread, but good basic hippy-dippy whole wheat bran bread. The first loaves were a bit wonky-looking but good bread. The second loaves were pretty much perfect.

If I may be so bold: never wet your hands first. Soaping dry hands first not only prevents water from dripping on your soap dispenser and sink, but it allows you to slowly add water to your hands to dial in the exact level of lather action you’re looking for.

I know, right, crazy :D

No but seriously it’s 4 ingredients, and takes 10 minutes of work to make and  only requires a good dutch oven, and that’s only if you wanna make it extra easy, it’s not required.
You can learn in a weekend if you really really suck. You can make…

Plenty of people. The price per gallon is ridiculous, diesel doesn’t pay anymore. My personal truck is a diesel because its 8 years old. But for my company truck I chose a 6.4 because ease and cost of maintenance. Half the engine oil, no fuel filters to change, cheaper fuel and no DEF.

$3,300,000 divided by 120,000 donors equals $27.50 per donor. That is in line with Bernie’s pledge to only accept small donations and is the most important policy he has.

Yesterday was the first I had heard about Founders. I rely on the group being vocal about crappy behavior to find out about these things. If the beer community doesn’t talk about it, I don’t see it. Which is deeply shitty, and I had a hard time reading this essay.

Whew, finally. A Subaru I don’t have to worry about headgaskets on.

More power? YOU FOOLS!!!

“Behold, the next generation Crosstrek and throw your money at us! And no, it is not an STI, quit asking”-Subaru

That actually sounds really good. Not too different from when they give you honey to drizzle over a gorgonzola or quattro formaggio pizza.

Oh, I’d be SO on board with an Apartment 23 revival!!!

First “Don’t Trust the B**** in Apartment 23,” now “Jessica Jones.” Both were fantastic.

Choking on akutaq, more likely.  

Permafrost engineering as a rigorous discipline and a service provided by engineering and consulting firms pretty much started with the building of oil & gas infrastructure from gathering/treatment facilities on the north slope and continuing on throughout the Alyeska (trans Alaskan) pipeline. It looks like oil & gas…
