NY Times: “This a presidency that celebrates nastiness and spite, not empathy or grace, a reflection, perhaps, of a coarser era in American life.”

incredible stuff over at r/ididnthaveeggs

It’s a eggnog recipe
nina b O 2 days ago ***&& I substituted the eggs for duck eggs and milk with geese fat and it came out terrible!! Please write in the recipe when reasonable substitutions cannot be made. +-2- → Reply Admin Stacy Popham © 5 hours ago | @ Reply to nina b Let me break this down for you.Duck eggs instead of chicken eggs? That's actually fine. Duck eggs work in eggnog. That's not your problem. Goose fat instead of milk? Goose fat is a solid cooking fat for roasting potatoes. Milk is a liquid dairy product. They are not interchangeable You essentially made hot melted goose fat with duck eggs. Of course it was terrible. Bottom line: If you fundamentally change the structure of a recipe by using completely different ingredients with entirely different properties, you're not making eggnog. You're conducting a failed science experiment. Make it again with actual dairy and report back.

We were thrilled to welcome so many to our Dies Academicus lecture with Christian Mader and Philip Atta Mensah. Drawing on their research project on Fort William in Ghana, they explored the material signature for slavery and colonialism.
