Not sure you’ve seen the history, but Henry Ford was a Nazi party and Hitler supporter before and DURING WWII, until the US entered the war. He was a loud anti-semite and war profiteer. 

I forget where I saw it, but I believe he said he’d be honored to get the full time job, implying he would take it if offered. 

Oh well, I’m done watching that show now. LeVar only had 5 days and evolved quite a bit over each episode. I think he had true potential to be just as good of a host as Trebek.

Mushrooms aren’t plants. 

Use clarified butter, problem solved. The smoke point is well north of 400 F. 

I'd consider it if it came to the US. I'd throw a big dog bed in back and a cargo net for groceries. Dog as my passenger would probably love it.

There are only two acceptable options, LeVar Burton or cancel the show, fuck you very much.

8 ounces of full sugar soda like Coke has 27 grams of carbs, 8 ounces of UNSWEETENED orange juice has 28 grams of carbs. Fruit juice is delicious because it’s a natural sugar bomb. 

You can’t get rid of type-2 diabetes, all you can do is manage it. It is a degenerative disease and the pancreas doesn’t heal. Anyone saying otherwise is full of shit. Managing to get your A1C down to 7 or so will mitigate long term complication, vs having a painful later life. Get used to cutting a lot of enjoyable…

YUM, I don’t think I’ve ever made a sourdough / natural fermentation baked dessert type of thing. You’re quite right about the pinch of salt too. If you ever see calamansi limes they’re worth a go, particularly in something like this where the flavor will be familiar yet exotic and different at the same time.

I’m in a similar boat, over the last year my A1C has gone up from 6.5 to 7.2 and it’s not from my eating or exercising changing. I am going to start a new oral med tomorrow and not looking forward to the potential nausea that can come with it.

Oh you younguns, with your fancy dials and things, you want old school break out the vernier calipers. Just moving the jaws on my Brown & Sharpe vernier calipers that are at least 60 years old is a revelation in smooth and accurate operation. I haven’t tried Mitutoyo yet but some mid-range modern calipers I have…

Pretty sure this is not narrow-minded, but being tongue in cheek pedantic about a person’s local variation. I’ll posit that there are certain iconic conglomerations of toppings on specifically formulated meat tubes and carb pillows that deserve to be held aloft to a certain standard of narrow requirements, like a good…

If you have some kind of financial or other dependency on her right now that just puts you in a bad place, not much to do about that. All I can do is say I my mother and her friends were judgmental religious bigots as well, much of the reason I couldn’t sustain that relationship so I can empathize. People are…

The best way I could think to put “feels right” is after the consult you feel comfortable enough to book and appointment to give it a longer go in person. I did a phone consult with three therapists when I was looking, one didn’t feel like he had enough focus on the issues I was most interested in, another I felt she…

Do it, fuck what people think, don’t let that prevent you from getting some help for your own happiness/peace of mind. Don’t tell your IRL people if you don’t want to but don’t let their bullshit hamper your life. That’s advice from personal experience of finally getting to a hard point and “breaking down” finding a…

All I can do is to again suggest cutting off the cancerous parent. She won’t change and everything points to her being a major negative factor in your happiness.

I am a moron I still want a Cygnet. 

I’ve never heard of that but now that garden tomatoes are ripe I just might try. Is it wrong I immediately want to make it a peanut butter tomato and bacon sandwich?
