As opposed to all the times in the past where it had more to do with zealotry towards a figurehead (kings, saints, martyrs, etc) or outright heinous acts. This is what Christianity has always been. It was only ever about peace and love on paper. It’s always been about idolatry and control in practice.

My ex took my last name, because he had siblings with children and my family name would have died with me. It was a gift to my father that his* grandson would carry the family name forwards. And no, that wasn’t a red flag – we were married for 30 years.

I can easily imagine that, too. I saw an early concept render that went around a decade ago or so when I worked in a design office, and we half- joked they’d accidentally released a low-poly model by mistake. Or it was some sort of weird joke we didn’t get.

It’s so ridiculous and broken, it has Musk’s fingerprints all over it (and good luck; fingerprints are near-permanent on that ludicrous metal finish they chose.)

It’s a nice sauce for pork dishes, and I hear humans have been called ‘long pork’…

Yeah, that’s what bugs me about this. Dogs deserve for us to treat them better than this. They’ve certainly earned better than this from us.

I am on the outskirts of nowhere and disabled. All my options are big chains. I wish they weren’t – my small town is now all hair salons, Tai Quan Do studios, pubs, florists, and yard or antique shops. No local shops here carry life supplies (food, toiletries , drinks, medicine) except the gas station (in very small quantities).

Blackberry-Honey Mustard Sauce

Total Time: 1 hr 20 mins
Yield: Makes about 1 1/4 cups

Ingredients:

  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 (6-oz.) container fresh blackberries
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon dry mustard
  • 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil

Directions:
1. Bring first 2 ingredients to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally and mashing berries with the back of a wooden spoon. Reduce heat to medium, and simmer, stirring often and mashing berries, 2 to 3 minutes or until slightly thickened. Remove from heat, and pour mixture through a fine wire-mesh strainer into a blender, pressing with spoon to release juices; discard solids.
2. Add honey and next 4 ingredients to blender; process on low 20 seconds. Increase blender speed to high, and process 30 seconds. With blender running, add oil in a slow, steady stream, processing until smooth. Transfer mixture to a small bowl; cover and chill 1 to 12 hours.

Paying bills is for poor people. Rich people don’t need to do that. How would they stay rich?

So much of this lately. He’s horrible enough. We need critical thinking, too.

Especially when her main message is saving democracy

This is exactly the reason. Because saving democracy right now means getting every possible vote, and the Cheneys can sway some old, Reagan/Bush republicans who reflexively vote R without really paying attention. If even the Cheneys support Harris, they might take notice. It’s an enemy-of-my-enemy situation.
