anyways, note the daycare playground in the shot

Incredible that the former Secretary of Transportation has made it his political mission to only show up when it’s time to throw groups of people under buses.

Screenshot of a tweet reading: me sowing: Haha fuck yeah!!! Yes!! Me reaping: Well this fucking sucks. What the fuck.

making/using béchamel is the opposite of this meme

A jar on a wood table with a vase of sunflowers and a window behind it. The jar is open and is full of a clear, light green liquid with slices jalapeños floating on the top

The jar viewed from above with sliced jalapeños floating in simple syrup.

I made jalapeño simple syrup and then put it in some pink fizzy lemonade and 10/10 highly recommend

this is the main reason I haven’t made anything in a year. turns out i cannot operate without tissue paper patterns 😩

we are extremely fortunate that no CDC workers were shot yesterday in the attack targeting them. around a dozen floors in the headquarters buildings had windows pierced by bullets.

Someone just sent me this study, and all I can say is that I don't understand why anyone would bother investigating this question. 1/n

In case you're wondering why every article about this study leads with "participants doubled their weight loss!"

Taijuan Walker could have just called it a day, not go full speed and coast to the end of his contract. Nobody would really notice or care. We’re in August and he’s given the team quality for most of the season, in different roles. I’m proud of him.

A skillet on a stove with chopped red onions and golden cherry tomatoes. Next to it on the counter is a cutting board with chopped zucchini.

A closeup of a bowl of gnocchi. It is saucy and herby and there are burst cherry tomatoes in it.

Two plates of zucchini boats on a black skillet on a wooden table. They are filled with bolognese and topped with browned cheese and basil.

never posted the summer veggie gnocchi from that first harvest — here it is with this week’s complement of zucchini turned into bolognese boats

more backyard garden harvests and their dinner conversions

I did that this weekend but with Kraft mac n cheese

Democrat Forrest Dunbar was on Nat Guard training in Poland and got personal leave, and bought his own ticket, to get back to AK and vote for the override.

If you are wondering why the special session was scheduled when he was in Poland, well, I'm thinking no one imagined he would do what he did

A fun reminder that a loss of 60,000 jobs in and around academia is ~50% more than all coal mining jobs in the entire country.

I have/had so many appointments this summer and it is killing meeeee. four for the dentist alone!!! I still have three left for various doctors and two I haven’t even been able to schedule yet. my poor adhd-riddled brain is crying out in pain.

that pie is beautiful. a real work of art and love

bh that man would drop the L and B too given the chance 🙄

It's wild to me that Substack actively hosts and promotes nazi newsletters and yet academics are cool with hosting their little blogs on there

tbc this is not, like, "I don't like their views so calling them nazis" ... it's actual neonazi newsletters, with swastikas etc

If you were alive in the 1980s, this is among the most wonderful & truly incredible things you have ever witnessed in your lifetime.

If you're worried about your daughter losing at sports to a trans kid just wait until you hear about "tall kids" or "rich kids"!!! There's a thousand reasons why one kid might win over another and gender identity is like not even on the list

so when you're like "oh parents have legitimate concerns," that's like saying I have legitimate concerns if I don't want to go to the bathroom because the Wolfman is shitting in there. Yeah maybe that might be a legitimate concern IF THE WOLFMAN WAS REAL - but it doesn't matter, because he's NOT

I think the really important thing about the "trans sports debate" is that it's NOT REAL, the things that people are fearmongering about are NOT REAL and are NOT HAPPENING. Cis women are not competing at a disadvantage against trans women, cis men aren't transitioning to win at sports, IT'S NOT REAL

and no, HBO miniseries are not the equivalent of eleven seasons on network TV, airing pre-watershed

we’ve been doing a m*a*s*h watch through since July 4th and 1) it is such an amazing work of anti-war art and 2) it is embarrassing that there hasn’t been anything equivalent since and instead we have a plethora of jingoistic war propaganda in its place

Nick Castellanos had some pretty choice words for Rob Manfred.

You spend months holding internal meetings with your legal and comms teams, trying to craft the best messaging for your terrible salary cap plan and then…

No Proof Hamas Routinely Stole U.N. Aid, Israeli Military Officials Say

It’s way too late, but the truth has a way of coming out. Forget the airdrops and scrap GHF — let the UN organizations resume their humanitarian delivery operations NOW to stop the ongoing starvation:

yeah, I’m going to give stop and shop a go. unfortunately the switch happened right up against a refill so I’m having to go through cvs for this one but hopefully this will be the only time
