Ok y’all I honestly thought we were swapping sweet plantain recipes this morning but now I’m caught up on the news, but still recommend using avocado oil specifically and don’t let that pan overheat.

I love my Eagles, but they’re starting to get the Chiefs treatment from the refs. That taunting call on Nacua was Tikka Masala-level weak sauce.

Love today because every irregularity in my areas of responsibility around the house- missing socks, half-full seltzer cans strewn about- are ascribed by my son to the ministrations of a leprechaun.

Promises made,
Promises kept:

- ejected South African ambassador;

-stop paying for firefighter training in a country that is on fire 75%/year;

-banned paper straws;

-trade war with Canada;

-cede Great Lakes fishing to invasive sea lampreys;

-bankrupting farmers.

All very what we asked for.

Still Gulf of Mexico-ing!
Pretty fun that there’s an entire federally-controlled entity still named after the Gulf of Mexico. gulfcouncil.org

My child-rearing goals have shifted from “well-rounded and caring individual” to “alive and preferably not a fascist”.

My words from yesterday feel so prescient
Remember please that even if there is a God, the fossil record confirms he/she/it presided over eons of giant reptiles maiming each other, just unbridled carnage, separated by several cycles of mass extinction. The only innovation is that our mass extinction will be self-executing.

This “rah rah” America montage really rings true in the middle of the incel hate coup. Honestly, guys, let’s just play football.

Optimist: The cup is half full.
Pessimist: The cup is half empty.
Construction lawyer: Per the most recently-approved CPM schedule, the cup should have been full 37 CCDs ago. The risk of a delay in obtaining the stuff to fill the cup with is fully the contractor’s. Also, it’s not per spec.
Optimist: The cup is half full.
Pessimist: The cup is half empty.
Immigration law professor: In a thinly reasoned 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court has ordered that the contents of the cup be dumped into the sea.
Optimist: The cup is half full.
Pessimist: The cup is half empty.
Law professor: No cups in the park

Once I listen to this one, I need to listen 50 more times. A core milestone in American recorded music. I’ll tell that to anyone who will listen, which is no one after I begin with “You know, back in 1944…”

Last year, when I was at MSNBC, I did a 10-minute deep-dive into RFK Jr's anti-vaxxer role in the measles outbreak that killed dozens and dozens of kids in Samoa.

I hope every Senator voting in his confirmation process for HHS knows about this crucial and awful story:
