Was just me, my wife, and my dad this year (the kids don’t come home from overseas for t-giving). None of us are huge turkey fans, so we ditched traditional Thanksgiving, and went to Eddie V’s, which 1) was PACKED, and 2) delivered, as always. Seriously, I e never had a miss there. Started with oysters and Caesar salad, and then these: For real….one of the best thanksgiving meals we’ve ever had. Eat what you want.

She really didn’t use comino in her guisada. Which was why our family loved it. Nothing against guisadas that use it, I like plenty of those, but it seems like they all end up having a comino-heavy flavor profile. She may have put a tiny dash in, but I don’t recall really tasting it in there. It was a touch more more tangy/acidic than a lot of guidadas (owing to the tomatoes, I suspect).

Was digging through old recipes to find mom’s oyster dressing recipe (will be making it for a potluck this weekend). But stumbled on this gem: her carne guisada recipe. It was so good, that there were Mexican family members who would ask her to make it for them when they visited us. Kinda cool to have it in her handwriting (and yeah, the header at the top tells you what kinda classy broad my mom was). Think I’ll make this next week when it’s cool outside. Pro tip: using some tough cuts of venison takes it to the next level. Venison carne guisada is where it’s at.

Sure looks like a fat feral house cat. You’re WAY out of Ocelot range. And doesn’t look like a bobcat.

Yella cake with chocolate icing is my all-time fave. That looks glorious. -

Elon Musk: Nazi traitor piece of shit [Confirmed]

Not dying in a fire is woke. -
Yep, and it’s not much more complicated than that. Add to that an overzealous AG who likes filing show charges, and it’s a whole lot of fuck that shit. “Hey doc, perform this medical procedure. And if you make the wrong call - or simply if Ken Paxton wants to grab some headlines, which he ALWAYS does - you’ll get to sit in the dock and wait to find out if you will die in prison.” Haw far away would you run from that decision? Yep. It’s the only rational move. AND IT IS THAT WAY BY DESIGN. THAT IS THE OUTCOME MAGA WANTS.

Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks
Brisketexan replied to PenelopeWitherspoon's topic in Cloak Room
It really has been. MAGA wants to burn it all down, and settle everything by brute force and power. They should get exactly what they want, and have been practicing. You can’t burn it all down if half the people are trying to douse the flames. Fuck that shit, matches and kerosene for everyone. Fuck this pussyfooting around shit. Nobody gave a shit when it was the right doing it, I presume we shouldn’t give a shit when the left does it. Seems that everyone is gonna play by the new rules now. Okay then. Play on. -

Tracking Trump Administration and Cabinet picks
Brisketexan replied to PenelopeWitherspoon's topic in Cloak Room
I’d lament that, but the rules were set a while back, by the MAGA movement. They were perfectly happy with this sort of shit against the opposition. Don’t want shit to be that way? They shouldn’t have made it that way. Zero tears shed for them. The chose a republic that operated by rule of the gun instead of the rule of law. Pretty hypocritical to whine about the gun being pointed back at them. -
He’s the end for Ukraine. “During the Trump–Ukraine scandal, which led to Trump's impeachment (and subsequent acquittal), Kellogg said he "heard nothing wrong or improper" in Trump's call with the Ukrainian president.[24] In June 2024, Kellogg and Fred Fleitz, who both served in Trump’s National Security Council staff, presented Trump with a detailed peace plan to end Russia's war in Ukraine.[29] The plan entailed that the United States would tell Ukraine that it would only receive more American military aid if it entered into peace talks with Russia, and that a ceasefire would be based on the prevailing battle lines.[29] Fleitz said Trump has responded favorably to the plan.” Bottom line, Ukraine needs to surrender everything to Russia. Glad we have the world’s best negotiator on the job.

BRAV-FUCKING-O. Truly amazing to me. “Power concentrated in government which has thousands and thousands of unique individuals in it, and is at least somewhat answerable to voters” is BAD. “All that power and more in the hands of 4-5 sociopaths answerable to no one” is PERFECTION. The fucking cognitive dissonance of this entire era is deafening. It’s incredible.

And, dumbass senator from dumbassistan doesn't understand that those tax dollars....were NOT sent to Ukraine, but were sent to places like his home state of Alafuckingbama. Money spent HERE. On American products, made by American workers. He may be he dumbest person to ever hold a Senate seat. And I'm including the Roman Senate in that.

The wife spent some time with the daughter bouncing around Soho this past week, and really liked it - they were back and forth between Covent Garden and Soho and such.

The Leopards Eating Faces and Unlubed Dildo of Consequences Thread
Brisketexan replied to Horn Dog's topic in Cloak Room
Yep. It was always that. That has always been the philosophy behind the far right bullshit (see Pat Buchanan), but they found a truly god-like figure in an actual pathological narcissist who not only doesn't care who he hurts, he thinks that causing pain is a display of power, which feeds his unquenchable ego. He thinks that causing pain is power, and having power will fill the void inside him, but nothing can fill that void, so the only thing to do is inflict more pain. It could not be more obvious if it was a 10,000 mile wide neon sign in orbit around the earth for all to see.....but here we are. People refuse to see the obvious, and make a hate-filled man the avatar for THEIR hate, disregarding the obviously erratic and universal nature of the hate their avatar will express. Just fucking dumb. But "just fucking dumb" is who we fucking are now and who we have steadfastly decided to be, so buckle up. -
Leftover turkey gumbo, made with rich, reduced turkey stock....is one of the things that is best in life. Really, it's the one thing I miss when I don't make a turkey at home for the holiday. And yeah....topping it with a scoop from the leftovers of my mom's oyster dressing recipe....gotdamn.

Yep. See, the dumbasses who voted for him think that Trump is going to serve up a tailored, single serving of fuckery, aimed only at the people they hate. What they are too fucking stupid to realize is that Trumpery is a massive layer cake of fuckery, "at levels no one has ever seen before." Eat up, Trumpers. Oh, and when you dig in, enjoy -- that isn't icing between the layers, it's pure spreadable shit. DIG IN. -

This is what many of us (lawyers) have been saying, dude. What I'll suggest to you is that the legal profession is no more or less immune to the greater decay that is wrecking our society as a whole. The vast majority of attorneys are not just practicing in an ethical way that reflects their position as officers of the court, but most are also sounding the alarm, speaking as to the importance of the rule of law, and the like. But like any other element of society/the social order, it only takes a relatively low percentage of turds in the punchbowl to turn the whole thing into a bowl of shitpunch. There's always a bad actor here and there, in every facet of society. But so long as that element is a manageably low number, the system works. Once that element builds and hits a critical mass......it's shitpunch. None of our systems -- not a single one -- are equipped to handle a critical mass of people simply opting out of the social contract. That's all that EVERYTHING is -- our legal system, economic system and transactions, social dynamics, all of it -- it's just an agreement. A handshake deal. I'll sell you a widget with a price of $10, you pay me $10. I won't run a red light to kill you or me, I get to go through the intersection on green. When that breaks down, it is a total breakdown, across all systems. You are correct - we are experiencing a tragedy of the commons playing out on a grand scale. I'm not absolving my profession of responsibility. I'm just telling you that we're just as fucked as everyone else. Too many people want to be kings of the ashes instead of members of the merchant class of a prosperous country. And the past couple of decades have shown us that this is inevitable. No amount of warnings or examples of pain will even slow it down. And that's the fucking awful truth.- 4768 replies

Not to put a big damper on things.....but it's not just the ruble. The dollar is on a solid run. Euro is down to 1.05, pound is down to 1.25 (I pay attention to both, as I send money to a kid on each currency). Yeah, the ruble is taking a bigger beating than most other currencies (precipitous drop in the last two weeks against ALL currencies), but some of what you're seeing in the charts above is a strong dollar. The ruble to euro chart is maybe more accurate (and it too shows a cliff the ruble fell off of).

Perfect post. It's entirely results-oriented Calvinball now. Bruen is the single worst-reasoned decision from SCOTUS I've ever read. It's a perfect mix of idiocy and jaw-dropping dishonesty, and it 100% means what it said -- Thomas reiterated that point. It elevated the Second Amendment above the entire rest of the Constitution, and formalized a method of "Constitutional Interpretation" that is complete nonsense, a recipe for disingenuous bullshit, and we've already seen that recipe followed. Rahimi didn't save shit. It's a band-aid on an era of SCOTUS that is going to make Dred Scott look like a work of genius in comparison. This is what the Federalist Society wants: a Court that does what it wants, whenever it wants, employing only the "guiding principles" that conveniently allow for the "whatever we want, whenever we want" outcome. If a court isn't regularly issuing rulings with a thought of "I really don't like this outcome, and really don't want to do this, but following the law and precedent, it's what I have to do," then it isn't a real court. The Supreme Court of the United States is no longer a real court. I've been a practicing attorney for decades....and I never thought I would say that, but here we are.- 4768 replies
