Been reconnecting with Toaster Strudels lately. I got the cream cheese & strawberry variety.
So good.
This time I air fry them at 400° flipping every minute until I like the color.
I eat them as an occasional dessert
10/10 highly recommend

If it were a hog, they’d still be out there & any hog farmers out here will back me up on this.
Police were able to wrangle the cow just after 7: 50 p.m., according to a Columbus police dispatcher. I-270 south reopened shortly after 8 p.m.

Pro tip for Uber & Lyft passengers:
NEVER message your driver & tell them to hurry up.
We will cancel. We might even wait until we’re almost there to cancel.
Taking those rides is a lose-lose to us. We either become the reason you were late or the reason you were almost late.

Picking up riders at lost lands & my cell service was nonexistent.
I ended up wandering the rideshare pickup lot asking ppl if they have a ride yet.
It’s the closest I’ve ever been to being a street walker.

Superfans ruin every fandom. They become gatekeepers & they enforce unrealistic standards on the brand that turns ppl away.
Star Wars is the best example… but also religion. Fundamentalists are just religion superfans. Meanwhile, spiritual ppl just want gay friends & bacon… & a social safety net.

Now this is messaging. Not my constituents, not the people of Chicago, he said “MY PEOPLE.” Very effective and moving.
Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago:
"If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."
