Unfortunately a lot of folks who voted R actually want the country to go backwards: Coal, Oil, Gas, Bigotry, Racism, demeaning Women, denying the vote to all but themselves. The list goes on.

The Only reasons RFK Jr. has the job is because: 1) He’ll do whatever the Taco in Chief tells him to do, and 2) He’s batshit crazy - just to mess with “all them learn-ed doctors and scientists.”

Give RFK Jr. time. He helped bring back Measles after it was eliminated. He’ll find a way to bring back Polio too. More profits for the iron lung producers…

$67 million is a nice start. How about NewsMax and Fox having to state On Air, after every news story about politics, that they Lied and had to pay restitution for their Lies. Oh, and we’re not a true news organization. As said in their deposition, no one would believe what we say is factual.

Just because you are against genocide does Not mean you are pro terrorism. I can be against Netanyahu’s treatment of the civilians of Gaza without being pro Hamas. This is not a black and white situation. There needs to be accountability for the treatment of civilians in any conflict.

So many good yeasted dough recipes - where to start? Pizza, bagels, cinnamon rolls, dinner rolls, Japanese milk bread, croissants, Pan de Mie, Focaccia, et al. I’ve been playing a lot with yeasted laminated doughs of late:
MadMacz (@madmacz.bsky.social) reply parent
Is that similar to Smacafam? Just started reading about this Northern Italian version of focaccia.
MadMacz (@madmacz.bsky.social)
Saw a recipe for pizza using focaccia as the base and thought I’d give it a try using my olive oil and rosemary recipe. One with Italian sausage and mozzarella; the other with prosciutto, pepperoni, sausage, and mozzarella. 🍜🍕😻

It’s not hard to see that the orange buffoon is systematically shutting down and firing all who disagree with him. As long as corporations cave in from lawsuits and withheld funding, we are all vulnerable. NPR and Colbert are only the latest examples. We must not give in to authoritarianism!

Kounig-Amann again! This time made a few changes,adjusting the ingredients and method. Let them rise a bit more and bake a bit less in ramekins. I feel like I’m getting closer. 🍜🥐😺

That’s great! Even better, they didn’t name it Luke Starkiller! 😉

It’s a sad fact that many people with small world views reinforce what they’ve been taught and believe by isolating themselves into groups that only support that view. Until they can see the harm caused by their views and finally open their hearts to those not like themselves, they remain ignorant.
MadMacz (@madmacz.bsky.social) reply parent
Definitely going to make some minor adjustments. After rereading info from others who have made them many times before, I’m looking forward to tweaking the recipe to improve the end result.

Exploring more adventures in laminated pastries. This time baking Kouign-Amann. So delicious! Making another batch this weekend. 🍜☕️🥐

I can see how some people don’t appreciate the perfect Chicago Hot Dog. Your opinions are your own, of course. As for me, it’s one of the joys of Chicago life.

Sadly enough loser legislators caved and the bill passed. So, unless you own a mega yacht and have more money than brains, you’re screwed.

How long before Hollywood runs out of animated classics to remake as live action? Unless we remake the same film multiple times (a la Spider-Man remakes). Mark my words, we’ll start to see animated films and their live-action versions being made on set together to save time and resources.

Exactly! I understand the anger about not treating a US senator with respect, but that should also be the case for everyone. Getting awfully tired of this administration only taking questions from those who agree with them and tossing from the room anyone with a contrary opinion or question.

As per usual, Chef, your critique is spot on. Stadium toilet pretty much sums up looking at that mess. On the plus side, it’s good to see you on Bluesky!

Why are news stories, with headlines you would expect from The Onion, an everyday occurrence now? Oh yeah, when you put no-nothing sycophants in charge of government programs, this happens.

Peter Navarro, the architect of the trade levies, also suggested the White House could use the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930, which allows duties on countries that discriminate against the US. - The Sunday Times. You mean to tell me he hasn’t seen “Ferris Buehler’s Day Off”?

Before the final blow was struck, I tore open a portal in time, and flung him into the future where my evil is law. Now the fool seeks to return to the past and undo the future that is Aku.

Long ago in a distant land, I, Aku, the shape shifting master of darkness, unleashed an unspeakable evil. But a foolish samurai warrior wielding a magic sword stepped forth to oppose me…

Loved Samurai Jack. They has one of the best villains in Aku. Voiced by Mako Iwamatsu in the first four seasons. Epic.

And before that, the Roadrunner and Coyote. Chuck Jones wanted to tell a story with no dialog, and they were amazing. Later in his career he did some of the Tom and Jerry cartoons as well.

Conservatives have convinced a lot of the public that universal healthcare is akin to communism. “Don’t give the government control of your healthcare.” And yet, we let large insurance companies tell our doctors what they will and won’t cover, while taking more and more money from the public. 🤬

This is what happens when you appoint government officials with zero knowledge or experience. They are put in office to cosplay as competent people. Unlike Trump’s first term where he had people who prevented him from implementing his worst ideas, these jokers are rubber-stamping our demise.
