Why did this happen? Cuz they’re both really stupid.

That’s nice. I won’t see it cuz I quit watching that pedophile-loving channel a LONG time ago.

Turns out I’m 1/3 Finnish. I am thinking about building a sauna. Or if I was actually Russian, it would be a banya.

You just sound like one?

Wow, your take on history is.... interesting.

And I seem to recall some of the things Hillary was called by berniebros. You aren’t little angels by a long shot.

No, I’ll get the whole spices at the ethnic market where they are still cheaper than in teeny-tiny jars.

One opened up recently in a town near where I live, and I’m in heaven! And the meat counter is amazing even if I don’t recognize the names of some of the cuts of meat.

And it’s SO irritating. I love cooking with chicken wings, oxtail, flat iron steak, lamb shanks, etc, etc, etc. And now that they are “discovered” I can’t afford them very often any more.

Same for me with the CBC. Interesting programs, non-American viewpoint.

People are just damned weird (or stupid) when it comes to naming their kids. There was the idiot who wanted to name his son Hitler. There was a girl in my kid’s school named Cetacea. There was a guy I worked with who named his blond-haired blue-eyed kid Zeus Apollo.

Saris are GORGEOUS, tho. I’d wear one if I could afford one of the really cool ones. And if I knew how to put it on correctly.

I am to a certain extent anti-Israel, but mostly because the spying shit they’ve pulled in the past, their treatment of Palestinians and the fact we cheerfully hand over millions of dollars to them anyway.

1. Um, Romanis have been in this country for quite a while, although obviously these 40 were recent arrivals.

I am truly sorry that this baby has such an awful condition, and would love it if there was a *real* treatment for it. That being said, dragging a child halfway around the world for a treatment that they have no idea if it would even work and they KNOW it would not reverse anything seems horrible to me. They aren’t…

OMG, I had a wonderful Japanese breakfast in Matsumoto. Would eat every day, given half a chance and if someone made it for me.

And remember, police departments don’t look for intelligent people to hire. In fact, they do not want intelligent cops. Figure that out.

I’ll wait til they have a sale and advertise it on Jezebel.

I’ve been around composting toilets. They can work, and work well.

Look, I’ve done the tiny house thing - but with a tiny trailer at a field site (did I ever tell you I counted spray-painted fish for a grad student? Fun times). It’s fine. For a while. Living with no one else.
