I have the OXO shears and they're fine. They cut through chickens and turkeys well, are easy to clean. Nothing wrong with them, but I have nothing to compare them to. I would trust Serious Eats if I were in the market.
Original post is simply about Elon paying a bunch of money and being gifted a position in Trump's cabinet. Kamala still has nothing to do with that.
Over 50% of those who voted. ~30℅ of the electorate, less than 25% of citizens. Don't give him more than he's earned.
Yo, shit is fucked up, I agree. I fully understand the damage that this Cheeto can and probably will do.
Eventually, not immediately. Harris would have been vastly more sane, more status quo. But it would've been kicking the can...even if Trump lost now, another Trump would run - and win - down the road. At least with Trump the insanity is out in the open. I mean these cabinet picks are insane. It would be funnier if we didn't have to live with the consequences.
A majority of American citizens who voted...that's an important distinction. Roughly 29% of voting age american citizens and 22% of all american citizens - a sizeable minority but a minority nonetheless - voted for fascism and racism.
What do the campaign expenditures of Kamala Harris have to do with how much Elon Musk paid as what boils down to a bribe to Trump?
Yes! Ian's secure shoelace knot is my go-to. Great site.
With regard to the tendency to tie a granny knot, I'm not even sure its from people using the same motion...once you advance past "two bunny ears" to the "swoop and push" it's hard to tell what exactly is going on, which side is over which. I knew how to tie a proper square knot well before I realized I wasn't tying a square knot in my laces. I just had to sit down and pay attention to figure it out which is a lot more thought than most people want to put into tying their shoes.
This time I opted for a buntline hitch (left side, ABOK 1209), diamond hitch over the top, and a round turn and two half hitches (left side, ABOK 1720) to finish it off. I also used a clove hitch (not pictured, ABOK 1245) on the opposite side to secure the first half of the diamond hitch, but it was unnecessary and only made it more time consuming to untie the whole thing. I will not use the buntline hitch again either; while it seemed very secure, it was much more difficult to untie than other knots I've used.
I secured the loose line after the final knot with a chain sinnet (see below, ABOK 2868) to avoid any mishaps on the ride home.
Yes. This worked for me as well. Smoked a pack or more a day for 14 years, within a year I just put the vape down. 10 year anniversary of last cig coming up!
You should write a book about it. You have a good, simple style thats easy to read, easy to understand. It would likely be cathartic to write and could help others.
Been strapping my work bag to my seat, taking the weight off and vastly improving my ride quality. I settled in an a variation of a diamond hitch (shown below) started with a fisherman's bend (ABOK 1723) and finished with a round turn and two half-hitches (ABOK 1720).
May try a buntline hitch instead of the fisherman's bend next time.
Independence from the tyranny of commercial soaps.
Let's see how this goes. Water and raw honey, 4:1, hoping for a wild yeast mead. First time, so fingers crossed.

Lavender bar soap unmolded and a week deep into its cure. Had some issues unmolding where the soap stuck in the corners, which is visible in the bottom right bar. Color is better now than it was out the gate, but still not quite what I had hoped for. All issues with this batch probably stem from the high proportion of Shea butter: crack after pouring into mold, sticking in the mold, bars feel a bit too soft. Proportion of butter was twice as high as it should been, but lesson learned. Will report back when it's ready for use!
First attempt at a ginger bug. Today is day 3 of fermentation, unsure what I'm going to soda-fy yet...maybe some apple cider? Still pretty cool.
I know its nothing fancy, but it's a huge step up from the no-name, no-info stone I picked up from a restaurant supply shop years ago. I'll keep y'all posted on my adventures.
Also, where is everyone?
...and whipped up a few pounds of this lavender scented olive oil, coconut oil, and shea butter behemoth. Color is a not exactly what I was after and I think the proportion of the shea butter was too high (hence the crack), but I'm hoping it'll still be a nice batch. Will update when I unmold and again after the cure.

Huh? Where have I said anything about lobbying not existing? Or democrats not partaking of lobbyist money? The original post is about Elon Musk buying DOGE. That's it. Stop putting words in my mouth.
