There's really no way to protect the people from themselves in a democracy, tbh

There's problems in the GOP, the media, and the Democratic establishment (in that order), but the fundamental problem is the moral rot in a citizenry that doesn't immediately reject a candidate like Trump

Greene could probably get a lot of Republicans to turn on Trump over Epstein, if she wanted to. It'd be a real crossing the Rubicon moment, but I think she has good odds tbh

Very funny to do this with famous myths, instead of random memes

Alas, this also probably applies to likes on social media

Adding to this, "what happens to the GOP after Trump" has always been a question without a good answer, but it's becoming more and more pressing as Grandpa sunsets more and more. Comparing videos of him today to 2016 is legitimately shocking

Wow, that's wild. I'd figured that prop planes shooting down prop bombers died in 1945, crazy that it's returned lol

This is the first I'm hearing about this, what're they being used for?

Maybe the most conservative-coded belief I have is in the nobility and necessity of duty. There are burdens that no one should have to bear, and yet they must be borne

Here's a gift link to today's Bloomberg Market Wrap, but tariffs seem to be the correct TL;DR: www.bloomberg.com/news/article...
Wall Street Traders Jolted as Tariff War Flares: Markets Wrap
Flaring trade tensions between the US and China sent shockwaves across markets Friday, hammering stocks, oil and crypto while spurring a dash for the perceived safety of Treasuries and gold.

Could be, it was a COVID era experiment, so I don't remember the details too well. I'm very happy with my slow cooker beans, but I'll keep that in mind if I ever need beans in a hurry lol

I don't know what I was doing wrong, but my instant pot beans always came out mushy

I like instant pots in theory, and I've got a few recipes down pat that are go-tos, but it's rough that there's no good way to try something mid stream and course correct

Oh, and a bulb of garlic. It comes out with that roasted garlic texture, I love it so much

That's the base*

Throw in whatever spices you want, they'll all taste good, but that's the case
October 10, 2025 at 2:11 AM
Slow cookers are the cheat code to this, imo. Two cups of dry beans, a bunch of water, a tablespoon of salt, and leave it on low right before lunch, they'll be ready by dinner

And not just size, but fire suppression, insulation, indoor plumbing, and electricity are all massive improvements in quality of life. A landlord special electric range would be a massive QoL improvement for even the wealthiest 19th century households

No one's talking about the electoral effects of the rapture, but it's gonna be huge

The article was debunked, but I think we'd be in a better place if it were true

Man, leftists really are addicted to losing, huh. "The DNC exerts too much control over online discourse" is like, the exact opposite of the most pressing problem in 2025

Feels like this might be an Epstein thing, where he'd finally find a line his base won't cross

I'm agnostic about the balance of power between the Fed and Congress, but it 100% should not be answerable to the Executive
