I’ve seen various takes over the years about how beans aren’t a breakfast food. This is not only wrong but massively disrespectful of the best cuisine in the breakfast game. (If you can get past the tripe, menudo is GOATed)

The weakest part of the Backrooms for me has always been that there is some entity in them. It’s scary enough knowing you’re forever lost in some ever-shifting liminal space without an exit, food or water. The monster around the corner feels like a shortcut.

Fuck, this lineup and door time make me feel old as hell.

I need to be careful and respectful about how I say this but: there’s no way Comic Con doesn’t attract more train enthusiasts than the NFL iykwim

the right didn't build its power by being unapologetically virile and masculine. they poured 50 years of lawyer billable hours into making it the law that you have to pretend they are

My doctor kept trying to sell me some medical grade BBQ sauce he’d made until a much larger doctor walked in and told him to stop.

He has the same trouble getting movies funded that everyone else outside the big IPs does. This is how he plays ball to get his next project made. Don’t hate the player etc etc

The boys chat has been on top of this for a few weeks. Worth noting Rachel Ray talked about having food poisoning non-stop when she was doing 40 Dollars A Day and Alton Brown mostly eats sardines on tour.

I’m telling you, he’s just Movie Morrissey.

It occurs to me that when It Finally Happens it might be televised. He might nod off in a meeting like he often does and just not wake up. Everyone will scramble and freak out, try to seize cameras, etc and lie as long as possible about his health but it’ll be there recorded forever. Died on camera.

Japanese matchbox lable

New Mexico is a delight for history nerds. Just a way different timeline than people expect. You can still attend Mass in a church in the Pueblos that’s older than the Plymouth Colony

Nah, buddy. We’re all on “socialism or barbarism” now.

I’m missing New Mexico pretty bad right now, as a place to visit. I’d love to get a breakfast burrito and a cup of coffee then stroll around the Cruces farmer’s market, buy an armload of books at Coas then spend the afternoon in Mesilla.

If the fire department didn’t show up when you seasoned your wok you did it wrong.

Someday I hope we get to disinter the graves of a bunch of SCOTUS freaks, unceremoniously roll their bones into a sewer, chisel their names off everything and dump their headstones into the sea. We let the Confederates get away with too much post war. No more.

My Mom just sent me this picture of her folks on a pack trip in the Gila. I don’t really have any non-studio portrait pictures of them.

A cool thing about climate change is that allergy seasons are getting longer and more intense so I have to spend more time using medications that don’t quite play nice with my bipolar meds so I’m always not breathing great while kinda grumpy and anxious about it.

A great thing about the world is knowing how many ancient, culturally important and still thriving sites in the Middle East exist as long as I***el feels like allowing it.

Turns out if you slam four NA beers in a dark dive bar while watching a very loud band you will have a (slight) psychosomatic hangover the next day. Even if you were home by 8:30.

The finishing touches of my turn towards being a committed socialist came from working in a marketing department and sitting at the table where this stuff is hashed out.

Coach Greg Popovich was a leading example of positive masculinity during the period commonly referred to as Woke 1. Victor Wembanyama, a former tutelage, is poised to lead the Spurs to their first post-Pop NBA Final signifying a new era of Woke, or Woke 2. In this essay I will…

I’m seeing a show at a bar which is awesome except last time I was a here we went into Covid lockdown a week and a half later.

yeah but halal cart chicken and rice fucking rules

Oppenheimer: In some sort of crude sense which no vulgarity, no humour, no overstatement can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin; and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose Degrasse Tyson: additionally, Charlie browns head could never grow to be that big. It would fall off

He’ll move to Texas, buy a new wardrobe at the first Cavender’s he sees, show off all his new guns, do a podcast and youtube channel about how great and conservative Texas is all the while privately complaining non-stop about the heat, neighbors and restaurants.

Oh no! His girlfriend looks like 1995 Hope Sandoval! Red blooded straight guys hate having a pretty girlfriend!

One, you guys make your shit all the time and it sucks; Two, many of the hallmarks of good art are antithetical to conservative thought; Three, you all actually do want the big pop culture touchstones but are unable to shoehorn your garbage ideas into them without ruining them.

It’s amazing how much easier it is to chance upon a good book in a small, independently owned bookstore. Barnes & Noble is so big and full of slop you can hardly get your bearings.

Adri took the kid to a girls only birthday party for one of her little friends so I read in a coffee shop for s bit and hit a deli. Every sparkling water I’ve had on this jaunt has been frosty as hell. Very nice!

Which way, gray haired man?

If I had broad sweeping power over the US government somewhere near the low middle of my to-do list would be making Appomattox a national holiday called Surrender Day and it would be a huge bacchanal where the nation celebrates the defeat and surrender of the depraved slave empire.

I’m not saying the kid was the Spurs good luck charm but today is the first day she wore a team shirt.

Hell yeah, Spurs won.

Electability aside, stop throwing trans people to the wolves in the hope that one or two of them will leave the pack. It’s evil.

Nothing he can say is going to make the GOP stop calling him names and you can’t make the tent bigger by excluding people who are already in it.

Getting to tough decisions time with one of our dogs. We’re both pretty upset about it but really worried how to handle this with the kid.

Incredibly specific and detailed.

Green chile does not need to be shoved into everything. I do not need Hatch green in lasagna or sushi or 100 other dishes.

I’m from El Paso, so muenster is a given but asadero from Licon Dairy is my #1

I’m not a sports fan by any means but this Spurs game is killing me. C’mon guys, you can do this.

so like lemme weigh in on this as someone who is more financially comfortable than many in my generational cohort: everything I have gained seems precarious and temporary because I know the people with real money will take it all from me the second they get an opportunity and no one will protect me.

in retrospect, the guys whose first instinct when covid hit was to break the cannonball run record in April 2020 were foretelling something really important about where american society was headed

Society would probably be much better off if these Iraq war hawks had suffered some sort of consequence. Any consequence at all.

What the US is doing to Cuba is more than a humanitarian crisis. It is a genocide as defined by the United Nations. www.un.org/en/genocide-...

Families and Cultures, a social work class I had to take outside my major. It’s been incredibly useful, I met great people and saw my first ever whale tail at 8:30 am.

If you grew up then you knew the internet as a place that in some way or another made you feel less alone. You could find people who liked whatever weird thing you did and even find new weird stuff. AI just cuts you off from that and lies to you by pretending to be a friendly voice.

My wife is such a mark. I’ll have the kid tucked in and sleepy asking for Mami to read her a story. Inevitably there’ll be a dance party within 20 minutes of me leaving the room. If I know this is going to happen am I also a mark?

This is the correct take. It’s the Champagne of Beers for a reason, folks.
