She’s veering off to Charlottesville. Stick to the subject.

No sue didn’t. That was an obvious question. Hell, the Pod Sage America guys were discussing how to answer it several days ago.

Now he says he “took a bullet to the head.”

Complete and total victory on the documents case, he says it was thrown out. Umm, I don’t think that’s exactly final. (Also, fuck Aileen Cannon that unscrupulous cunt.)

She said the former Vice President. She meant the former President.

Crime is down here.

Yep, that was a prepared jab and it landed.

Keeps mentioning Aurora and Springfield. Oh now he says they’re eating the pets. Whoooo!

Lol. She just mentioned people leaving his rallies early out of boredom. That got under his skin.

Bring up how he said he was going to build a wall and Mexico was going to pay for it. How’d that turn out?

She’s killin’ it on abortion.

State the facts, Kamala. He’s lying out of his ass. He’s claiming execution after birth. Tell him he’s out of his fucking mind!!!

She sounded nervous to start. She’s rolling now. But she’s up against King Bullshit and he just spews bullshit with every answer.

Will someone PLEASE point out that China doesn’t pay us when Trump puts tariffs on their goods!!!!!

ABC’s Live Blog is useless. Trump is lying too fast for anyone to fact-check but it ro sit look like they’re even trying.

Let’s see if the fact-checkers note that foreign countries don’t pay the tariffs…

Jonathan Karl said they’ll be fact-checking on their Live Blog. https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/live-updates/trump-harris-2024-presidential-debate/?id=113525682&entryId=113567778

It doesn’t surprise me at all. It’s just hard to keep up with all their dirty deeds.

But heaven forbid we should make fun of JV for fucking a couch.

Got my new, updated Covid booster today (Pfizer every time) to protect me from the new variants. Got a separate flu shot while I was at it. Quick and painless with no side effects. I’m ready for fall. That’s a total of 5 times I’ve received the Covid vaccine now. No problems whatsoever. A little pain in my arm after the 4th shot that went away within 24 hrs. That’s it. On a scale of 1-10, it was a 1.

That’s cool. I didn’t know there was one or that it had been removed.

Trump has never once talked about policy. Making empty promises is not policy. Saying he’s going to repeal Obamacare and replace it with something so much better and it won’t be difficult is not policy. It’s just talk. He never says how he’s going to do anything. Hillary stood there in the debate and talked policy. She obviously has a command of the issues involved with health care and she paid out her policy objectives. Did anyone care? Fuck no! Because the average voter doesn’t give a fuck about policy and if you actually talk about it they get bored. It shouldn’t be that way. I want to hear someone who knows what the fuck they’re talking about and what specific things they plan to do to address problems. Donald fucking Trump has never been that guy. “I’m going to build a wall and make Mexico pay for it!” “I’m going to bring back the steel industry!” “I’m going to bring back coal jobs!” Pie in the sky promises and he didn’t keep any of them because he’s in real estate and has no fucking clue how to run the government.

Whenever I cook eggs on a skillet, the burner is off by the time I’m done and I’m finishing them with the heat retained by the pan. I’m late to comment on some earlier topics. This could go in the breakfast foods thread because I love eggs and beans for breakfast. I like my boiled eggs warm so I’m not going to leave them in an ice bath for long. I add vinegar to the boiling water and it’s been my observation that they’re easier to peel since I’ve been doing that. My process is to (gently) drop cold eggs into boiling water and let them boil for 7 minutes. Then I pour out the water and fill the pan with cold water from the sink, covering the eggs, about as much as I used to boil them. I don’t usually run into problems peeling them. When I do, it’s usually the first of the eggs which leads me to believe that letting them sit in the cooling bath a bit longer would help. But it’s never bad and doesn’t often happen so I’m not worried about it. Like I said, I don’t want them to cool down too much. This way I get eggs where the yolks are just starting to set and they’re sort of gelatinous. I soak my pinto beans but not for as long I used to. I’ve found that 2-4 hrs is sufficient. It takes 2 hrs of simmering to finish them. I can use pork products in them but often don’t. I don’t know if my take on these beans would be Texas-approved but I like them. I use the same spices I’d use for chili. It gives me a cheap, convenient way to experiment with different blends of peppers and spices. And I include the soaking liquid. After the beans have been thoroughly cleaned and rinsed, why not? Sometimes my beans have more broth, sometimes less. I generally try to make sure they’re just covered in the pot. I start off sautéing minced onions and garlic in oil or bacon grease, then add my spices, maybe a bouillon cube, then add the beans and liquid. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer til the beans are tender. Right around 2 hrs. It’s pretty quick and easy.

Hell, they gave Obama a Nobel Prize for not being George W. Bush.

When I told you to make my hands look bigger, that’s not what I meant!
