    And yet it means the opposite here. Curious, how things work. Maybe consider “gentrifier” to be a modifier.

    As far as I know, Manafort is only facing federal charges and can thus be pardoned. State prosecutors are getting ready to charge Cohen for fraud related to his taxi medallion business in order to box him in to flip him on the federal charges. Plus, there’s no way that Trump will pardon Cohen now. He’s gonna flip.

    Julia Salazar is a great candidate. I hope all the gentrifiers in her district donate to her and do something good for the neighborhoods they took over.

    I’m not sure why people are being so cagey about this - yes, Tarragon does have a distinctly licorice-like taste. If you don’t like things that have a somewhat-similar-to-licorice taste, like anise, you probably won’t like tarragon. That said, Bearnaise only very slightly tastes like tarragon, and most of the time you…

    So they took something that is supposed to be as minimally heated as possible, steamed it, fried it, and then it seems...microwaved it? Or is that a convection oven?

    Yes, if this is a steakhouse steak, then bearnaise is the correct choice. I never understood Peter Lugar’s “fancy ketchup” situation. You’re going there for fat. You want fat to augment your fat, with just a little acid cutting through it.

    Much like the surgery scene in Spider-Man 2, I think that scene was just Sam Raimi going “Hey, did you know I directed this movie? If you didn’t, you do now!”

    This may have been the case in Batman Returns, maybe, but I saw Batman in the theater when I was 7, and even then I was like “I think this person has a severe mental illness.” Little did I know that it was Keatonitis and it is CONTAGEOUS.

    I’m not sure if it was before or after X-Men, but he also had a cameo as Ted Cruz in Zodiac.

    Don’t you ever diss the Dunst. She gets a lifetime pass for Dick and Drop Dead Gorgeous. Also she shared a cigarette with me outside of a restaurant and seemed as nice as a harangued 20 something celebrity could be back in 2011.

    I think the best part of that movie was him monologuing to himself in the mirror. Other than JK Simmons, of course.

    It’s not that I necessarily DISLIKED Garfield as Spider-Man, but they really did him a disservice by making him a high schooler. I think he had to fight against a script that underserved him at every turn. He could have very much been an established superhero dealing with a Mary-Jane/Gwen Stacy/Black Cat love…

    I add it to mac and cheese! It’s legit better than actual lobster mac and cheese because it doesn’t get all tough and dry like lobster does.

    The last fast food chain I had a burger at was Checker’s. I remember it being pretty decent. Do they even still exist anymore?

    My only experience with McDonald’s in the last 20 years is taking my patients there. My patients only ever eat things off the dollar menu, and if McDonald’s only served burgers, fries, and shakes, they would be more expensive than that. Five Guys serves a different clientele.

    Whenever I’m cut off, or see a car driving on the shoulder, or shoaling into the very end of a merge, blocking cars in other lanes, or just generally being a fucking asshole on the road, 9 out of 10 times it’s an Uber/Lyft driver. It’s so predictable as to be pathetic to assume it’s anyone else.

    This is the same tactic I use to make my brownies more fudgy and chewy.

    Use a milk frother to make a topping for a nice pisco sour?

    The vast majority of the game is nothing like that.
