Our culture phrases damn near everything in metaphors of war. The war on drugs. The battle of the bands. Bob lost his battle with cancer. It’s absolutely pervasive, to the point it’s almost as invisible as the air.

If you give yourself a hemorrhoid you’ve got a new friend for life.

Rule number one: the kids are alright.

The public library has tools and such in a lot of places.

Hell yeah baby. Wanna meet Papa November?

Lyndon LaRouche. I’d occasionally run across a few of his minions out leafletting and they oozed that culty wacko vibe.

You can get a similar vibe out of golden curry by peeling and pureeing a couple apples. I add them after the onions get soft and fry some moisture out of them before the water and tubers go in.

I’m a huge fan of this style of curry, and went down a rabbit hole a few years ago learning lots of stuff about Japanese style curry.

It’s because there was a book called “Folk Medicine: A Vermont Doctor’s Guide to Good Health” that kicked off a health fad called the “Vermont health system” in Japan. It included drinking apple cider vinegar and honey. The curry then appropriated the name for its health connotations.

And then squeegee down your forearms and aprons and get back to work.

You just pull the wrist hole open and dump out the excess hand water every hour or so.

Heyo!

I couldn’t tell you, TBH. I have only read the series of books.

Well it’s a series, but Three body problem. It should have been right up my alley, but I got so tired of every decision by every character being stupid that I couldn’t be bothered to read the last fifty pages of the last book.

Even if I charitably assumed the point of the book was to show that people are weak and stupid, the series was such a ham-handed strawman as to undercut its own commentary. And even worse, it had just enough interesting ideas to lead me to believe it was going somewhere worthwhile, but it never did.

It’s been years and I’m still pissed off that I wasted a week on it.

I guess the Talking Heads were on to something. https://youtu.be/PH5JvU19_YQ?si=gqbkXoBWCngdkCpV

A sign that reflects the eternal truth… You don’t buy beer. You rent it.

Glad you enjoyed it! Personally, I never expected such a thing from a sports reporting site.

Nothing left to do but play football.
