I love this immersion blender & I recommend it effusively at every opportunity, combined w/ a warning that they cause tons of nasty injuries every year. I treat it like one would a loaded gun—I only plug it in when it’s assembled, positioned in the bowl, and I’m about to press the “blend” button.

The problem with even this idea is that individual tax liability doesn’t change if and when your employer stops withholding. The logical outcomes under current law are 1. Fines for the employer for failing to comply with withholding rules and 2. A big individual tax bill next April for the employee.

This proposition usually starts with (and is limited to, though I’m curious what the author’s upcoming “tax lawyer update” will say) the fact that blue state, county, and local governments are often *themselves* large employers who remit tax withholding to the feds.

In 2001 in Athens, Georgia, my then-girlfriend and I were given a lifelong catchphrase by one of those survey research canvassers at the mall.
She stops us in our tracks, gripping her clipboard, and addresses us with gusto “EXCUSE ME!…”
*we stare at her blankly*
“…DO YOU LIKE FETA CHEESE?”

Intricate legal arrangements aside, I’ve never once heard an argument for separate bank accounts in a marriage that didn’t boil down to “we do this because we can’t imagine learning how to communicate effectively, let alone to manage basic interpersonal conflict between partners”

Even if one were to put all your (excellent) points aside & suppose, for the sake of argument, that this one numerical comparison is a useful yardstick, that is still grading participation on a MASSIVE curve in at least 3 ways: population increase, platforms for organizing, & decreased social cost.

I made a huge platter of Kenji’s miso salmon (note: MAKE THIS) for a party just before Covid and it was devoured immediately except about half the crispy salmon skin. My poor, sweet Dutch neighbor was aghast when he saw me gleefully scoop it all onto my plate.

5-Minute Miso Glazed Salmon Recipe
This is one of the easiest, least messy, fastest ways to cook salmon. Once you have it marinated, it's a matter of minutes in the toaster oven or broiler before it's ready to eat.

If we’re including childhood, I used to wander into the kitchen and stuff fistfuls of dry, uncooked oatmeal into my maw like a goddamned horse when my mom wasn’t looking. No, I have no idea what that was about.
