The Simmering Chef

This is a book I've heard so much about but have never read. Maybe my library has a copy. Thanks for the review!

Ryan Walters is resigning.

Well done. I laughed out loud.

F*ing brilliant. Particularly loved you circling in your chair.

I'm guessing the apology from the apoplectic right over their false story that the shooter was a leftist trans liberal ... will be buried along with Charlie

This, That, and The Other The road to hell is paved with....

After a long, hot summer, I present you with a new post. thesimmeringchef.substack.com/p/this-that-...

The load-bearing myth at the heart of UK politics is that the politicians and media are tolerant and decent and working people are knuckle-dragging bigots, but it's actually completely the other way around.

Thank you! I feel like I did, but will head over to make sure.

I was wondering if you were going to mention her. I'm rereading Her Dark is Rising series right now.

Why does it feel like we are waiting to exhale?

Did something happen in the past 4 hours that I missed?

Oh, lord. It's only been a month? I've lived 18 lifetimes since July.

When Ted Turner asked Carl Sagan if he was a socialist, Sagan gave the answer America keeps failing to learn.

Brilliant. I have a selection of his short stories on my audible read by David Suchet. Chilling! Exactly what’s needed in this heat.

The next BLS report will be renamed the BM report.

What a great view. I am envious.

Thank you, & absolutely not a problem. I like to think like weeds. We pop up everywhere, cause no end of frustration, grow where no one wants us, and ultimately, nature always wins. Throw rocks, shout, create barriers, but also, mark the cars in such a way that everyone knows who these people are.

Do you have children that are little girls? When they use spread that glitter, you can see that hot pink and gold stars everywhere.

You really should stop looking in the mirror and confessing your faults.

Stop throwing rocks. Throw glitter-glue bombs.

Here's an idea. Glitter-bomb the cars. Then we'll know which neighbor is really working for ICE. Super-glue and glitter are really hard to remove.

Interesting. Thank goodness there are so many other genres for you to choose to read. Try Philip K Dick.

Today, Los Angeles received its first honor of three Michelin Stars. The head chef of Somni, which received three, removed his jacket to reveal a t-shirt which read “immigrants feed America.”

That explains why the Hoka I wear aren't very supportive.

Also winning fights against Genghis Khan(1161 to 1227) and Napoleon (during the Napoleonic Wars, our political and economic trades and embargoes led to the 1812 war against Britain--not France). He really is an ignoramus. *Snort.
