Teaching the (adult) kids to cook and there's an underlying principle I'm trying to communicate to them:
The modern recipe, as a form, was invented in recent history to serve the needs of industrial, commercial, nationalist forms of cooking.
If you're doing any other kind of cooking β the vast majority of cooking worldwide and throughout history, including most home cooking β you don't want 'em.
What you want is a repertoire of techniques, experience with ingredients, and your active senses.

I read an article that explained the top marginal US federal tax rate wasn't *really* that much higher (at 91%) than it is now, because hardly anyone paid that rate.
It ignored that CEOs didn't get paid 1200x the median salary at their companies, that paying themselves that would be pointless because they wouldn't be able to keep it, that the tax rate served to limit executive greed, and lower consumer costs for everyone.
Also my favorite song of hers - I think it shows the incredible power in her voice. Her downward spiral was tragic.
Heineken launched stout to replace Guinness (withdrawn last year) for Russian market

<< #Heineken can spin this all they want, but they are shamefully operating in a sanctioned state and developing new products to protect their investment.
No one in #Ireland , or anywhere else that suppprts #Ukraine 's sovereignty, should drink #Heineken . This also shows how weak the sanctions are for many big companies operating in #Russia .

Hi. When you add β-tardβ to an insult of someone you donβt like, youβre using the R word, which is a hateful term and is ALWAYS punching down. Please donβt do it, even to insult vile politicians, antivaxxers, Trumpists, etc. Just donβt. There are plenty of other colorful words to use that wonβt insult people with disabilities.
The Boogaloo Bois and the Proud Boys and the 3%ers should all be designated as domestic terrorist groups. The FBI needs to step it up.

He's another one (like Cheney) that I don't get why some people on the left have suddenly adopted. He's against Trump's tone and demeanor, not his politics. He wants some dignity as we slouch toward Gilead, he doesn't want to stop us from going there.

Maybe he just went out for cigarettes and a 6-pack. He'll be back.

#PoliceViolence #BlackMastodon #BlackFediverse #BLackTwitter For the first time in a pattern and practice investigation, DOJ actually added that the police, members of Louisville Metropolitan Police dept, HAD engaged in sexual violence against women, and further that the department did little about it! A small advance in the fight for transparency. I'm so pleased to have been able to push this issue forward.

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
