I’ve seen but never eaten homemade crackers. They made them on The Great British Bake Off once as a technical challenge. But making your own crackers is a waste of time, energy, and resources. I know a lot of basic carbs are laborious to make and the store bought versions are usually good enough. But fresh bread and…

I heard this morning that through the first seven games, the fewest points allowed was the 2000 Ravens, which was a “legendary” defense (albeit from a lower offensive production time).  And the 2019 Patriots are crushing that record, even against this shitty schedule.

The whole system when other countries decide that I no longer should control my land or be independent befuddles me. I know some countries have automatic or permanent cores on certain territories, but like I was once trying to play CK2 as a minor vassal of like Spain or something. I did everything I could to improve…

As much as I love the depth of these games I'm just so bad at them

Millennials are killing rural poor America and minor league baseball - NYP, probably

Sale getting injured, Price having recurring injuries, and a two-timy TJ surgery patient bring ineffective have nothing to do with baseballs. They were repeatedly mismanaged.  Sale always fades late in the season, and injuries happen.  They let the bullpen get worst y by allowing their one good reliever go and…

Hell, the government has been trying to make BDS against Israel illegal now.  I guess it’s not a viable option anymore.

I know the bidet is having is moment right now in Western culture, but I can't fathom the idea of bringing a kit with me to a public or work place restroom.  Everybody knows you're pooping going on there when you being the portable water gun.

We’ve been hearing for years that “opening up consumerism and chinese markets will naturally spread democratic ideals” as some neoliberal horseshit.  What turns out happening is if you have a centralized, authoritarian government that is sufficiently powerful, they won’t let you do business with their people unless…

This is a Guy-pocalypse

This reeks of the same kind of shit girls get put through with school dress codes. Constantly policing women and girls bodies for being ‘sexual’ yet nothing about men and boys, you know, not being terrible.

dude they fuckin sold out to Taboola. Kinja used to have it’s own ad network (or at least, a half decent one) when it was still run by Gawker, but slowly as the transformation with Univision and Fusion and now G/O under current ownership, more insidious shit like Taboola, which has long known to be a shitstorm of an…

Capitalism and Fascism and even communism can definitely be friends if they so choose.

I know I should have played this a while ago, but playing the original Witcher really spoiled it for me (I found it hard to play, just too clunky). I actually have this for PC, and found it again hard to play (switching to an Xbox controller helped some). The Witcher is a game and series I want to get into (especially…

I was wondering why I kept seeing that get reposted across the network.  Now I get it.

Well I did say it doesn't always work. Theoretically, you're playing a very good team in the super bowl so it will be harder to exert that influence on them.  It's usually about key positioning though.  

I mean, I think he is. I've seen and heard multiple interviews from former players taking about how he game plans things in the first half that bait opponents into committing mistakes later in the game.  Obviously it doesn't always work.  I wish I had an example off hand.

I mean, I’m pretty sure if you take alcohol enemas now, you get very drunk very quickly, because it basically bypasses that whole pesky digestive track and liver system.  

Who hurt you?

I mean, on the HK side of things, it’s slightly more complicated than that. Something often overlooked in western media is the ethnic angle in this. The Chinese Communist Party is mostly made up of the largest ethnic group, Han people. HKers identify as mostly what English speakers call Cantonese (Cantonese is a…
