Let them come

I voted for Clinton and went “eeeeuugh I wish I hadn’t had to do that.”

That is no cendeick lemure, it is the rap boy who is good, lemure Burton. He helped kids to read good and did a star trek.

Alaska and Kentucky are the two.

Kind of?

The electoral college is no longer functioning as designed, and so voters in certain less populated areas have slightly more weight per vote than those in heavily populated areas. Only because the number of districts was artificially capped. So some districts have more people than several states do.

States also get two bonus votes for some reason.

The argument was that if someone posed a genuine threat to democracy and had a chance at winning the popular vote, the delegates could step in and vote for someone else.

A consequence of that, is that exactly the opposite can happen too.

A: all models are trained on something

2, you’re building your own straw man here. You’ve set up an extremely narrow condition under which this particular type of pedophilia is acceptable. Prove to me that that’s the norm, that it’s a typical use scenario, and that people looking at that crap are exclusively looking at loli, and not images meant to look like real people, and there’s a debate to be had there. But if you think any of that is true you’re lying to yourself. Sexualization of others is not going to happen in a vacuum under sterile conditions, it’s going to bleed in to real life.

The act of baking does indeed make you a baker. Definitionally.

Just because you aren’t going pro doesn’t mean you aren’t making a cake.

The only people that sexualize children are pedophiles.

Fine but I’m not going out like that bitch Aaron Burr

Pucker up, Omaha is going to be a tight race. And next year they’re going to try again to go to winner take all here. Lines hours long for early voting in areas that traditionally have never had lines.

Cross your fingers for Vargas and Osborn too.

I think you said it better than I did. Dude just wanted to educate and people just can’t let something be good. It has to be correct.

And a Sgt Harriman for good measure.

I blame Alton Brown.

Hear me out.

Alton Brown is undoubtedly a legendary figure and he did a lot of good for the modern state of culinary entertainment. His scientific, experimental approach was authoritative. He came up with what was scientifically the best way to do a thing, demonstrated why, and did it in a very entertaining way.

But with that, came scores of fans who saw “this is the best way to do a thing” and interpreted that as “this is the only way to do a thing, fuck you you’re doing it wrong.”

Alton wasn’t doing what other TV chefs were doing. Emeril and Julia presented really good recipes, they’d add some flare and say hey, this is how we do it around here. Bourdain explored the world and showed off a lot of great ways to cook. He was reluctant to criticize and clearly just loved the food.

But Alton Brown, for all the good he did, opened up authority to fans who didn’t know shit about fuck. He spoke with confidence about how his method was the right method.

Right about the time the Internet was coming in to it’s own and arguing about nonsense online became a hobby a person could have.

Now, there’s a culture of being right about cooking online. People who log in every day just to bitch about how somebody else cooked something.

Obviously it’s not exclusively Alton’s fault, and Alton is as open to new and interesting ways to cook things as Bourdain was, a fact you’ll discover if he ever happens to visit your home town and read what he says about the food there on his Facebook page.

But there is a through line there, and it starts at Good Eats.

That is absolutely not what Clinton was impeached for.

The investigation in to Clinton began before he’d ever met Lewinsky, and it was over some real estate dealings. Because Clinton had not actually committed an impeachable offense, Ken Starr had to keep going back to Congress to ask for a wider scope.

The investigation took so long that after it began, Lewinsky was hired, Clinton won a re-election, there was sexual activity, word got out about it, and then Clinton lied about it under oath during a completely different deposition regarding a sexual harassment lawsuit filed by Paula Jones, which is what he was ultimately impeached for.

It wasn’t the affair or the harassment, it was the lie, and it was only the lie because they were absolutely desperate to impeach Clinton for anything by that point.

I read that in an incomprehensible British accent

I made it to the J’s before I found a company there was even a chance I might support, and it’s the worst of the sandwich options near me that isn’t a subway.

Sysco was the next one and that’s just because if you go to a restaurant, chances are pretty good they’re getting their food from Sysco.

Braveheart strokes the same freedom boner that The Patriot does.

You ain’t putting it anywhere. It’s getting delivered and staying where they put it.

A single 5 foot cube of tungsten would weigh about as much as an above average sized single family home.

What there’s loads to do. You can awkwardly try not to touch the person next to you. You can hold it, because you’re stuck in the middle or window, and you don’t want to disturb the person next to you. You can drink the 2 oz of diet Coke they give you before they bring you peanuts, then desperately try to suck any amount of liquid out of the cup of ice you’re left with. You can try to get to your bag under the seat in front of you, fail because your feet are in the way, and spend the rest of the flight wishing you hadn’t done that.

Loads!
