Nice!

Are those jalapeños as well?

My shakahuka:

Yeah, that’s a good one. I like the Illuminati Papers and Right Where You Are Sitting Now as well!

FTA:

“Can you imagine the reaction if Joe Biden said he pardoned someone because Hunter told him to? If Biden blindly freed a scammer based solely on his son’s recommendation — no due diligence, no second thought — conservative media would be frothing at the mouth.”

We don’t have to wonder:

“I would say that they’re null and void, because I’m sure Biden didn’t have any idea that it was taking place,” Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One in March.

Trump added in a social media post the next day: “In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them!”

All of Wilson is fantastic, but this is probably the most accessible of his fiction.

His non-fiction though, man, throw a dart. 😉

Yes, they peaked during Covid.

The self-raising flour could be the problem if you’re using just normal flour.

If all you have is normal flour, you need to add to it:

1 cup (120g) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4 teaspoon table salt

Oh, they will DEFINITELY come back in 5 years… IIRC these bonds only last 5 years, the last one passed in 2020 with expiration this year.

But here’s the thing, if you read the messure, this bond is 1/2 the parks budget. So if it doesn’t pass, there will be a dramatic reduction in service.

“If a new levy is not approved, the Parks operating budget would be reduced by approximately half, resulting in fewer programs and services.”

Redditors: “Billionaires shouldn’t exist!”

Also redditors: Helps make latest billionaire…

“I don’t want to distract from the importance of this decision” read as “I was told they don’t allow cameras.”

Hope it goes better for you guys than our ranked choice election did. A lot of people saw the ranked grid and just noped out!

The trick with parks funding is we took a one-two punch.

1. Because it’s based on property taxes, we’re taking it in the shorts on commercial property values. Seriously, you look at Big Pink which sold for $45 million which SOUNDS like a lot until you learn the previous value was $372 million…

2. Inflation and Trump’s tarriffs are boosting construction costs on EVERYTHING.

So, going with the old parks tax, less money was coming in because of devalued property, and that money doesn’t go as far because of inflation and tarriffs. 😟

I don’t know they are necessarily lying, I think that what they want to do comes from an honest place, it’s just that once elected, they realize they either don’t have that power or they’re actively blocked from doing it.

Looking at Mamdani specifically, he wants city run grocery stores. LOL. I feel safe in saying that’s a child-like pipe dream, but I still want to see him try. There’s like a 4% chance it could work, but hey, I’m saying there’s a chance! 😉

Game consoles never used to have those features either. 😉 That’s the trick, you need a set that supports modern console features.

HDR management being a good one. The game developers encoded HDR to make a game look a specific way, you don’t want a set that either over-rides it and does it’s own, similarly you don’t want a dumb set that doesn’t support HDR.

Like most political promises, I don’t see how he could do 1/2 of what he wants to do. I’d still like to see him try!

All that BS is more beneficial to gaming than a generic TV, especially if your focus is low lag.
