  1. link to greens recipe pls?
  2. This. This is the outcome, it's the only thing that matters. MAGAs keep pulling the cord on the suicide vest, and they completely disregard the fact that they are blown to shreds, focusing solely on the "others" who got hammered by the shrapnel - they grin in gleeful victory, nevermind the fact that they turned themselves into pink mist. So. Fucking. Stupid.
  3. It's hard to trumpet a "surplus" when you're simultaneously begging for a $40 billion bailout lest you collapse. And the inflation rate is.....back to 2021 levels (yes, it was hyperinflation for a period, so any decrease is good, but let's not go sucking each other's dicks just yet). Accounting bullshit is bullshit when the rubber meets the road. Well, I mean....I was married by then. But even my wife agreed "holy shit, these women are gorgeous."
  4. I didn't say the trade-off would be worth it (and Paint it Black is fucking awesome). I said we'll get what we get, and we'll call it a win, no matter how stupid a loss we take. And even one American life spent on "conquering" a country that doesn't constitute any material threat to us--solely so the "peace president" can simultaneously pretend to be a badass AND distract from his deep relationship with the world's most notorious pedophile--is a fucking loss.
  5. Is it made of nickel? Or Stanley nickels?
  6. My folks' apartment in BA looked over the park with the Malvinas memorial. Not many visitors to the memorial. But on a sunny day, LOTS of stunning Argentine women sunning themselves on the park lawn. Solid location for an apartment balcony.
  7. Argentina is one of those places where the voters' thought process is largely simple, clear, and understandable. "We've tried X and Y for the past 50 years.....and we've ended up ratfucked, completely. So, fuck it, let's try Z, we literally can't do any worse." And they're right. What's the worst that can happen? They turn into a bankrupt, totally failed economy? Been there, done that, a dozen times in the past several decades. They've seen rock bottom, they were just at another rock bottom, fuck it, let's try something different. I still don't think this gambit will really work, but I genuinely can't blame them for trying something completely different, given their track record.
  8. This can't be overlooked, and it's genuinely great no matter who you are. My daughter was an academic star, she was going to get into most places she applied (and ended up getting her first choice). But her first acceptance was to her second choice (which she absolutely would have taken -- University of Edinburgh), and when she got it, she called me in tears, so excited -- "Dad, I'm going to college!" I realized what an awesome feeling that was for her, because even though she "knew" she would go somewhere, to have that first real, tangible acceptance in hand really means something. Congratulations to all the kids who are getting those this fall. Seriously, it's great.
  9. Has these vibes.... ...except without the seriousness and credibility of Nicholas Cage.
  10. On the bright side, gave us some pretty good music. I mean....there's always a silver lining, right? Sure, it's a mountain of shit, but find that one shiny thing so we can call it a win. That's the American way.
  11. That both looks amazing….and like it would run in fear if a spice came within a mile of it.
  12. Correct. Engineer, lawyer, doesn’t matter. It’s your deal/bar card. If you’re signing it, you read it. At least the final draft that you sign.
  13. I mean….except two of those are Houston joints?
  14. I mean….you get it.
  15. Wife has been getting over a nagging virus, it’s made her stomach and appetite iffy. But she needed something simple and hearty. Say no more. Picadillo and tortillas.
  16. Instead of watching this crapfest, I spent the afternoon cleaning out my dead mother’s closet. It involved sifting through some horribad outfits from the 90s, and filling trash bags full of old lady underwear and socks. Which, from what I’ve seen, was more enjoyable than watching this team. I got to watch Niblett and the OT, so…yay. But Jesus. We just aren’t good.
  17. Shit, dude. These days, we’re more likely to hit em with air strikes than air lifts. This hemisphere is fucked, as we’ve decided to be its chief predator.
  18. Just checked my two standard carnicerias for outside skirt. Nope. But, did see this, which reminds me that there are still things in this world that are good and right. Go spend your $5-6 each for a breakfast taco at all your hipster places. Or go to La Finca.
  19. Yeah….this one could be really fucking bad for some places that just don’t have the resources.

    Burgers

    You’re killing me, man.
  21. And that’s a gal who knows a thing or two about mattresses.
  22. We’re big fans of Tumble 22. My wife likes a crispy chicken sandwich, and they make one with fried boneless thigh that’s not too big and is really good. And their Nashville hot is actually really good.
  23. Wow…this is amazing. Mucho thanks. If this is the direction we go, and we end up there, would be happy to buy you a cocktail or three.
  24. He is a (1) legitimately insane (2) complete fucking idiot. Seriously, you Trump supporters…this is your diety. A man whose brain is not an actual thing. Jesus fucking Christ. How can someone like that have ANY power, much less ALL of it?
  25. Ain’t nuthin gonna happen.
