Is there any more perfect food than a little wedge of potato, browned and salted outside, tender and creamy inside?

At the end of the day I'm not sure how much difference it makes. But it is striking to put out a budget that axes a luxury tax on yachts and adds a co-pay for refugee claimants accessing drugs and dental care.
I agree with the original thread! You're the one who told him to go be mad about the US instead of the climate crisis. I'm pointing out why your argument is a silly defense of the current path
Then why are the Feds integrating even more of our security and surveillance apparatus with the US, if they're the reason for all this?
Today in small miracles: the drugstore near me, which NEVER has Halloween candy left after the day STILL had some out and on sale when I dragged my ailing skeleton out to pick up meds tonight and so now I have meds and a box of Coffee Crisp to comfort me in my convalescence.
Free buses, rent control, city-run grocery stores. Canada, lol.
You and your fam are in my thoughts. Good wishes to your dad 💚💚
JPC absolutely kills me. It should be illegal to be that funny!!! (no it shouldn't)
Also a bunch of Cool Zone Media folks are playing Pathfinder over the next six Sundays on the Cool Zone Book Club feed, and the story finds our heros on the run having just done a prison break, and the first episode is very funny and there are explosions

One is Gumshoes and Dragons, which is what if Columbo but in Dungeons and Dragons and wrestling with what criminal punishment means in the whodunnit format, made by the crew from Hey Riddle Riddle. They just finished their first arc and I need them to make more! www.gumshoesanddragons.com/episodes

I never figured myself for a rpg podcast listener, but two sets of people whose work i enjoy have come out with real play podcasts this fall and they're both a real delight so far (and, incidently, they both have a light anticarceral element to them, which is also great).

Good morning.
I don't know who did this, but I love you.
Oh this is such good news!! LOVE Mr Hue and his excellent work
Hurray! Hue Shoe Repair is staffed by the old guy's nephew! We're not bereft of a tiny cobbler on Graham!
Oh this is a marvellous list
Bit of potato that fell under the stove. Doesn't explain the location, but that's definitely the look
This is something a librarian might be able to help you with, especially one local to the paper in question. Good luck with your search
(It was a poll of scientists by Nature and it looks like it was from March actually)
Wasn't there just a survey that something wild like 75% of US academics are considering leaving the country? It might have been a subset of academics, but regardless, this is ludicrous.
I just asked my NP to send me for a test! She did the symptom checker with me in the office and I was like... oh boy, well, that explains a lot!!

hello darkness my old friend
I see you've come at 5pm
Nothing so luxe as this, but when I was growing up in Winnipeg in the 90s, there would be a handful of adults with a bottle of brown liquor under candy bowl table, and if they noticed a parent with a travel mug, would offer a tipple (I of course didn't notice, but my folks bring it up)
