Pretty sure I’ve seen this guy at a bar in Santa Fe. Yet more evidence for my thesis that Maine is the New Mexico of New England.

Used to be a bigger chunk of Democrats before they got the country club types in the party switch.

Finally a politician who is also afraid of being bad at sports.

This explains my neighbor circa 2008 with the “Nuke Iraq” bumper sticker.

The Assassination of the Traitor Jesse James by the Hero Robert Ford

A plate with a pork chop covered in tomatillo sauce and some mashed potatoes with a bit of red potato skin still visible.

Worked late tonight but still whipped together a pretty good dinner. The green is straight tomatillo sauce, the brown drizzled over it what you get when you mix the tomatillo sauce with the pork drippings at the bottom of the pan and let it cook a bit.

When I was about 5 I met Tommy John at a baseball card show and we got into an argument about some statistics. It ended when Bob Gibson interjected, “Hey, the kid’s right!”

My maternal grandfather quit drinking (mostly) after an anti-Italian racial profiling incident in Arizona.

One was a cheese maker, one had assorted blue collar jobs. (Shirt factories before they all closed, restaurants after that.) Both World War II veterans; one a Navy pilot, one an Air Force tail gunner.

The article doesn’t give any recipe examples or links — which seems lazy if your whole premise is claiming this is a trend — but there’s a line that implies some people use seasonings and others don’t.

This is just picadillo over rice without the tomatoes or seasoning.

He was also all in on throwing out the Constitution to crush dissent during World War I.

I’m in the middle of reading Edmund Morris’s (largely sympathetic) TR biography and my opinion of him has already gone down. He had some good domestic policies but his imperialism was bad even by the standards of the era. And he was more of a racist than the Republican presidents before him.

A vodka martini with two olives in the incorrect glass.

Not usually a vodka martini drinker but if you’re seeing From Russia With Love it’s the only choice.

Now I need to know more about how reptilian genetics work. Are King Charles’ kids only part lizard because their mother was a commoner? Do they have fewer reptilian abilities than their father as a result? Or is lizardness always dominant?

Wait you wrote a sci-fi opera about John Quincy Adams? That’s amazing is it publicly available somewhere?

Should have figured it out when he proposed “His Dragonness” as the president’s title.

I’m not sure if Icke believes this but one of my favorite lizard people conspiracies is the ones who believe President Adams was a reptilian because he built a monument saying his Puritan ancestor fled “the dragon persecution.” Like they think it means they were being persecuted for being dragons.

I don’t have a great explanation but my theory is it has something to do with Mormons being a minority in both the state of Idaho as a whole and the Republican Party, so there’s more pressure from the rest of the coalition to get in line.

I lived in eastern Idaho in 2016 and 2020. Always thought it was interesting that never-Trumpism mostly faded away in LDS Idaho after 2016 but in Utah it seems to have some staying power.

'There were victims': Protesters at former Epstein ranch demand action Dozens gathered at the former Epstein ranch Saturday to remember victims and demand further accountability from officials.

Armed private security stood guard at the former Jeffrey Epstein estate, warning those gathered for a roadside vigil not to step onto the property.

"They're protecting their filth," said Pauline Sims.

"There's nothing hidden in the world," she added. "Never. Eventually it'll all be out."

Sorry Texas but we now have proof that Blake’s fucks more than Whataburger.

The running would be an issue right now (I’m healing from tendonitis) but the other two I’ve done by accident.

The “I’m in this photo and I don’t like it” meme where you can report things on Facebook.

The Burger King ones are a good deal too. And better chicken than their regular chicken sandwiches which are too salty for my taste.

My great uncle was an electrician. Weird coincidence that our embassies always needed electrical work in the weeks before a coup.

One of the plaques honored Indian Wars veterans and contained a slur that was chiseled out in 1974. It was torn down during a protest in 2020.
