But if you’re cruising on the highway, a manual and an auto are no different.

I drive a stick. I still have moments on long journeys where I’ll suddenly realize, holy shit, I’ve been driving the past 5 minutes? (I’d like to think that in an emergency, my subconscious would snap to)

Ummm without money there is no research...

Opposing the Soviet Union

1st Gear: It’s just talk at this point, but it seems it’s going exactly the way trump wanted. China probably wants a trade war less than the US does. Too much of their economy is based on us purchasing crap buy the boat load.

There’s a level of classism involved. Who exactly can afford Everlane’s $88 silk shirts, or to toss perfectly good clothing and books and holiday decorations the second they they’re no longer needed? “Minimalism is a virtue only when it’s a choice, and it’s telling that its fan base is clustered in the well-off middle…

so your proposal is that we should bring water to a boil for each item, individually, that needs to be de-crustified rather than soaking them all together? seems like a bad take. there’s a reason so many people soak their dishes, its quick, its simple, and it works.

Thank you, this is all such obviously straightforward, that I don’t know how anyone (let alone a food critic, like Pang) could write so many words complaining about something called a ‘fry’ and not have it cross his mind at any point that it is obviously because it is fried.
(Especially weird as this is a guy who’s ok…

Yep, which is why Donut fries (especially when they are shaped like french fries is a great name)

but they’re not French...they are “frenched”...which is to say...they are cut into long strips.

They are literally fried. IMO anything that’s fried, has the right to describe itself as a “fry”

Yeah. No one who gives lip-service to respecting a group of people could EVER actually have disrespectful feelings about them! Such a thing would be so dishonest. It’s unthinkable!

“...and can mix an excellent, and very strong, martini...” 

Some of them gave me large lumps too, it took a couple of tries to find the right brand. Hasnt happened in years though.

This is new to me. All I know is I get a rash in my pits if I use antiperspirant with aluminum in it. And I don’t if I use deodorant without it. I’d bet a lot of people avoid it for the same simple reason, not because they’re paranoid that it’ll give em cancer.

Oh, forgot this was Hickenlooper. Splinter’s reaction is now not shocking. This has nothing to do with what he said folks. It’s about the fact that he’s a moderate who acknowledges that a winning coalition involves taking PA or OH back along with MI.

Where’s the “slavery imagery” here. It’s a direct historical reference.

Bringing up slavery doesn’t make one a racist or insensitive to the issues of race.

Difference being, he’s not the boss of the waiter. Meaning he doesn’t have authority over them and doesn’t pay them a wage. The US system is fucked up, sure, that’s not the issue here. But he’s not docking their pay, he’s giving them less of a tip. A tip that is explicitly for service rendered. If the service rendered…

at the same point in time, he isn’t wrong. Dating apps users fall into 2 categories, those that are just bullshazzing and wasting peoples time, and those that want to get something to happen.
