I guess the alternative is that they are investigating, have something really big, and don’t want to tip their hand.....

Even with a solid chewy bread, when I cut it by hand the slices are always like 1" thick!

What is that?

Some pre-made guac is okay and made of real avocados - you have to look at the ingredients. I doubt any are going to knock your socks off, of course, but they’re not all nasty.

If you put lemon juice on the exposed part of the avocado, put it skin side up in a Tupperware and stick it in the fridge it lasts for at least 3 or 4 more days. Even if you just throw the other half away, though, you’re still saving money. This thing is like $3.50 for one avocado.

Well, 5-10 seconds saved, plus your slices are nice and thin and even instead of big hunks of bread.

There’s nothing ridiculous about buying a single avocado, people do that all the time.

But you don’t need a sharp knife, if the avocado is ripe. Of course, fear isn’t always rational like that.

And if you squeeze some lemon juice on the exposed flesh, it’ll stay fresh-ish even longer.

I read that the hotels ended up selling the rooms to protesters instead.

If you’re not a Nielsen household, watching or not watching won’t effect the ratings.

I do think Trump went “’urban’ - that means ‘black people’, right? I know a black guy!”.

Yet. I’m sure that’ll change in 10 days.

I have a feeling it’s not “kicking out” so much as “replacing with nothing but Fox News, Brietbart, Infowars and RT”.

I think it’s that the prospect is so dire, the accusation so serious, and the situation so unprecedented, that it’s hard to face and hard to know how to proceed.

He’s an idiot. Corruption scandals will hurt him. Many people will need to have the corruption spelled out for them, but once they see it, it’ll be a problem for him.

He says he’s going to solve the conflict-of-interest problem by hiring an ethics advisor for his company that will tell them not to do things that would be a conflict of interest. I’m not kidding, that’s what he’s saying. It’s obviously complete and utter nonsense, anyone with any common sense can see that, but…

There’s an awful (I mean, informative, but about an awful topic) documentary I think on Netflix about the case. It was pretty high-profile. He built a secret lair in his basement, IIRC, I think a concealed sub-basement or something.
