is youtube premium free yet? because i thought it was supposed to be turning free at some point this year.

i love both potato oles and cheese curds, so kate has it by default.

i’ve lived in WV for more than 15 years now and i’m still astonished by the meager options for frozen pizza at all but the biggest most cavernous grocery stores. i’ve told many disbelieving locals of the joys of choosing from entire aisles of frozen pizza in WI, getting reactions ranging from bemused pity to outright…

On that note, I’m gonna be in Cape Charles, VA in late June - anyone know of interesting, affordable places to check out? According to the internet, places of interest include a taco cart down by the pier (Gordo’s), breakfast at Rayfield’s Pharmacy (which apparently still has an old-fashioned soda counter?) and an…

wait - can you have too much sauce in an indian dish? honestly, the sauce is usually the best part. i love me some goat curry but actually pick out the pieces of goat meat, which are usually too bony or fatty for my taste - but that sauce, over rice or a couple pieces of pakoora? DAMN that is good eating.

do you REALLY think we’re ever gonna see another book in this series? at least, one written by Martin?

i think she said she did try kool-aid, both with and without sugar, to disappointing results. (yeah, cherry kool-aid is amongst “the very bad”.)

wouldn’t a cheese powder packet from a box of Kraft mac have been an obvious winner? i mean, everyone loves cheese popcorn.

i don’t think we can take anyone who argues that medicare for all or any other universal coverage plan would not be a way of “fundamentally increasing access to care” for Americans.

why don’t cities mandate the scooter companies install designated “scooter drop-off sites”, essentially like bike racks? make them install two racks for every scooter they put on the street - hell, these could even be loaded with some sort of sensor that communicates with an app to help people find the nearest scooter.

YEAAAHHH, BOSS! POTATO OLES ARE THE BEST!

wrangler makes 35W with 36 inseam in non-tapered cuts and their denim is fairly decent quality for the price, if that helps. plus, i like the way their extra two belt loops are placed.

i’ve lived in WV for 15 years. i met my wife here and there are many truly wonderful people.

can second the use of the english muffin as burger-bun idea; i originally started doing it using the morningstar breakfast sausage patties as a homemade mcmuffin w. cheese-thing (only with tomato and mayo, too) but the wife caught me doing it in the afternoon once and thought i was making a gardenburger. “that looks…

gimme a PangBurger all the way - while i love mayo and hamburger dill pickles on pretty much anything in a bun, neither are absolutely necessary on a burger with mushrooms, cheese and grilled onions.

what a whiny bunch of babies.

i know we’re not supposed to comment on the personal appearance of famous people* but, gosh, he’s kind of a handsome fellah.

“...I’m curious if anyone can figure out how he could reasonably get from Point A to Point B with all of those threads.” i think that’s the problem at the heart of why we haven’t seen another book in the series -Martin can’t figure it out, either.

it’ll be interesting to see how people having easy access to decades worth of comics history through these digital services will have an impact, on both fan engagement and, eventually, in the creators who are going to be taking on writing and artistic duties in the next decade or so.
