That’s funny because I clicked in the post

I understand the efficiencies of commingling laundry, but I keep my laundry hamper(s) and my wife keeps hers, which lets us do separate loads according to our own wash preferences and post processing. :)
It’s going great.

And all of that notwithstanding, anyone who thinks you’re somehow forming a majority out of nonbelievers in this country in this year needs to go back and take grade-school math.
It’s just such a silly argument. If people want to bring the country leftwards but think religious people shouldn’t be part of it they’re ignoring everyone from Martin Luther King to 3/4 of places where a country has moved leftward
2 0 2 6 Updates Election Results Senate Primary LIVE Updated March 4, 2026, 2:40 a.m. ET Election Live Updates: James Talarico Wins Democratic Senate Primary in Texas His race against Jasmine Crockett was called late after confusion over legal challenges about voting in Dallas County. Senator John Cornyn, a four-term Republican, was forced into a runoff with Ken Paxton.

The strangest thing to me here is that if you really listen to Talarico speak, he’ll say the most hardcore humanist thing you can possibly think of and then cite chapter and verse of, say, Matthew to back it up. Don’t let the appeal to religious believers make you disbelieve the sentiment.
1 min ago James Talarico will win Texas' Democratic primary for US Senate, CNN projects By Arlette Saenz State Rep. James Talarico will win the Democratic primary for US Senate in Texas, CNN's Decision Desk projects, setting up a November showdown in a state where a Democrat hasn't won statewide in more than three decades.
Other outlets making the same call now…
so here’s the thing about this primary: I would happily have supported either candidate in the general and I think you should too
cornyn bad, paxton worse, I do not actually want to spend a lot of time on bitter recriminations here
To be fair, Talarico’s campaign has been dogshit too. Like, it’s standard polished corporate graphics and stock voiceovers. Just hand the man a microphone and let him talk for an hour, and then air 30-second clips of that, and it’ll do much better than this oatmeal campaign they’re running so far.
I voted for Crockett but I will glady support Talarico. Neither's perfect, but either would be a HUGE win for Texas. Now that it's Talarico, I'm going to try to see if there's a way I can volunteer for him online, as I live overseas. Same for Hinojosa for Gov.

I’m not sure how the Dallas mess makes this call wrong. If anything, the TX Supreme Court deciding that ballots cast between 7-9pm are likely to be discarded makes the call more likely to be correct. No county broke for Crockett as hard as Dallas; removing these votes only hurts her chances.

Yeah, based on what I saw today, at least 1/3rd of people showed up at the wrong place and had to have help finding their right polling location.

Holy shit this thread. Read the whole thing.
Grew up in the US. I’ve had beef liver, heart, and tongue, but I’ve never come across lungs. I also recall most canned chili used to include beef hearts as a listed ingredient; most just say “beef” now, but the formulation doesn’t seem to have changed, so I suspect this is just a labeling change.
Gotta make sure you don’t miss opening night.
