My new off-season #RootRootRead thread.
My first book was this one and it was so good and I highly recommend it!
Checked out from library and read for 30 min uninterrupted

Yes. Olives are 🤢. And cilantro. Nothing ruins a dish faster than even the tiniest bit of cilantro.
even if you personally hate it, no widely consumed food is actually bad or it wouldn't be widely consumed, except black olives, which are a fucking abomination

Finished this one today for my book by an author of a different race, ethnicity, or religion. It was different, but really good. Not quite what I was expecting , but I didn't completely know what to expect. I enjoyed it, though. #RootRootRead

It'll be the Trump Plan. You pay thousands of dollars and then they refuse to pay for any procedures or doctors visits.

All military personnel have a duty to not obey unlawful orders. That’s all the six Democratic Members of Congress said. Like everything else Pete Hegseth does, this investigation of Mark Kelly is just performative bullshit for his base. He’s an unserious mouthpiece for an unfit Commander In Chief.

Everything about this might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen

That's an interesting way to convince people you deserve a Nobel Peace Prize
Really looks like the United States is about to launch a regime change war against Venezuela with:
-No casus belli
-No authorization from Congress
-No allies or international support
-No plan for a post-Maduro Venezuela
-No preparation for any sort of stabilization or containment of the fallout

Huh?
WELKER: If tariffs help consumers, why is the administration rolling them back?
BESSENT: You know how much you weigh. You get on the scale every morning. Inflation is a composite number and we look at everything. We try to push down the things we can control.

I was at work yesterday so didn't get to see the match, but I saw the score and oof. This season started out so great and it's like we hit a wall.
Arne Slot is approaching an important point of his #LFC tenure and three games in seven days will likely determine what is to follow. A change is needed - but only the Dutchman can determine it 👇🔴

Maybe a bad analogy? But our whole handling of this is like blaming the woman for the clothes she's wearing and not the rapist for, you know, raping.

Rubio: That Ukraine plan was never ours, it's Russian wishlist we're factoring in to negotiations, but not our position.
Trump: Marco, do you want your war with Venezuela or not?
Rubio: But this—

The party that promised "free speech on campus" has made sure there can be no free speech on campuses.
This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

It still doesn't make sense to me. We lose our Gold Glove utility guy for a guy who plays one position and can't hit?
Jim Crane wants to remain under the luxury tax this winter, but the Astros intend to add at least one starter and perhaps a left-handed hitter. Doing both of those things requires payroll shuffling. Sending Mauricio Dubón to Atlanta is the latest example - www.nytimes.com/athletic/682...
As part of Astros’ payroll reshuffling, Mauricio Dubón traded to Braves
