Yeah, Gilbert would like to have say in this.

The myth that baking is about precision needs to die. This myth turns off way too many would-be home bakers. Depending on the recipe you can make some pretty big deviations while still getting a good bake. Heck I make bread and pizza dough without even measuring.

... the irrepressible taint of Phoenix.

Because if you F over the allies you’ve been using to fight your wars, they will ally with your enemies, then come after you.

This is what I think we will start seeing - low-level nobodies will start getting arrested like crazy. With every single testimony, more witnesses will be called, more people will be implicated. With every single deflection and refusal cooperate, more people will get wrapped up in it because then the cover-up starts

This is what has always killed me. At the root of the whole “Actually, I hope Donald Trump stays in office, because Mike Pence would be so much worse” argument, there is the implication that he’s some master of the dark arts of politics. That he’s some chess master who knows how the machine works.

Came here for the sharks with frickin’ laser beams joke. Not disappointed.

My 2 cents:

Imagine 1) claiming the dough for a pizza doesn’t matter and then 2) claiming the best pizza comes from the Midwest.

Good cheese and sauce makes more of a difference than the dough.

Corey is a vassal of Wall Street and Big Pharma. We now obviously know what Big Hot Dog says and like so many corporate behemoths, it is not acting in the interest of the majority of Americans.

College faculty member here. While completely inappropriate and extremely unsettling, it pains me to say that I am not surprised by Stallman’s comments and behavior. People who work in academia often lead very microcosmic lives. Especially at the post-secondary level. Some are considered experts and even pioneers in

To be fair, that’s all LA[1] has ever done about the homeless: make it inconvenient to be homeless right here. People sleeping on benches in the park? Install benches you can’t sleep on. People bathing in public restrooms? Put coin locks on the doors and wonder why they’re shitting in the streets, now. No, the entire

CBP isn’t qualified to assess this sort of stuff. It’s a notoriously abusive agency with a toxic internal culture full of people who failed to get into better positions or chose this position because of their pre-existing ideology and prejudices.

Please don’t encourage people to use credit cards. I know this site and its sister sites make money off things like this and need money, but there must be better sponsors.

One of my female friends switched to only ever wearing loose fitting skirts to work after reading what some students posted about their admiration for her ass when she wore pants.

There are, unfortunately, an awful lot of young male students with inappropriate fantasies relating to their female professors.

Then again, I’ve also worked with a lot of faculty who had inappropriate relationships with their students, so it cuts both ways—but it’s never okay in either situation. We’re there to work,

That’s the logical outcome when the school’s hiring practices are “we can get three or four part-time adjuncts with low wages and no benefits for what it would cost to hire one full-time faculty member.” Every level of higher education in the country is in a race to the bottom to fill its ranks with temps.

So you’re saying there might be an opening soon at Mesa Community College?

I can’t wait for next year when they upgrade to the future of credit cards: a multi-layered polyvinyl chloride acetate resin carefully mixed with opacifying materials and dyes. It will be called “iPlastic” and it will revolutionize the industry.
