Skepti wanted me to buy bananas. But she doesn't eat them. I can take them or leave them but don't like them enough to buy.
So I bought an under ripe bunch since they ripen fairly quickly. I decided to get some fresh peanut butter to spread on them- the Winco stuff that you grind yourself. It's just plain dry roasted peanuts and nothing else. Adams can KMA!
There are little bananas. One kind is yellow but every once in a while they have the red ones that taste like berries. My Filipino friends say we in North America are missing out on bananas because we only get the one kind. One friend took me a picture of the market. There’s a lot of bananas!
My Indian coworker says the same about mangos. He came from a farm with like 5 different kinds of mangos in the yard. They feel very sorry for our pathetic selection.
But the Filipino friend likes durian so I need proof, man. Tastebuds are suspect!
I had the mini bananas in Guatemala back in 2015 before they really caught on where I live. When I got back, we didn't have them.
They were like regular bananas but the favor was stronger. Difficult to describe.
I have bought some occasionally since they became available and I notice they ripen quickly enough that it might be better to get regulars. I imagine the minis would make some great bread, too.
I haven't cared for bananas since I was 16 and traveling around Europe with my mother, and I got food poisoning in Rome. My mother, the nurse, insisted that I had to eat a lot of bananas over the next few days while I kept throwing up multiple times a day. Since then they haven't appealed to me.
"Terry Schilling, the leader of the social-conservative group American Principles Project, gushed over Stefanik as well. “I 100 percent trust Elise Stefanik and will go to the ends of the earth to support her,” said the prominent activist who has played a leading role in pushing state legislatures to ban gender-affirming care for minors.
For Schilling, despite whatever Stefanik had done in the pre-Trump era, “she has really stepped into her role as a conservative leader for this country, and I think she has a bright future in the Republican Party.”"
Trump's far more interested in a woman's looks, than her competency in advancing his evil agenda, which is why he ends up with lawyer Alina Habba, instead of someone competent. Poor Elise has been losing weight, but she's still not hot enough for Trump. She should get breast implants, lip filler, and cheek reduction, and THEN she might have a chance.
I don't think that the GOP turn out in SC reached 50% today. Seems closer to 40% and Trump only won by 20% above Nikki. Each primary shows Trump getting weaker, less voters are turning out for the GOP.
I think that there's going to be a greater push by Trump to end the primaries now instead of watching Nikki get closer to his numbers. She might even carry one or two states on Super Tuesday. Ending primaries now and declaring Trump the nominee at this point would show just how weak his is politically at this point.
He needs 1000+ delegates which will come soon enough since he's 10% there already. Despite his sycophantic/syphilitic hold on the Repubes I don't think even the PAB can dispense with that part of the process.
They are already trying to end the Republican primaries and call Trump the nominee. There will be a bigger push now that Trump is stacking the deck over at the RNC.
It's like a pretty sweet wine with some floral notes to it. It has a kind of bitter, quinine-y aftertaste, though after I added a splash of prosecco to it (in addition to the club soda) that mellowed out. It's really good!
Sara, you really don't need an excuse to throw Springsteen into my day! I also appreciate you throwing 2 of the stars of "Dinosaurs" into my day! That show made early 90s TV more fun and my family was always tossing its catchphrases at each other. My favorite was the baby dinosaur screaming at his Dad, "Not the Mama, not the Mama!" Good times! 😁
My rough back of the envelope math says about half (there are around 1.5 million registered Republicans in the state, and just under 750,000 votes are expected to be counted).
My solar gets installed in less than a month!

This video is a must watch! 🤣🤣🤣 Send it to all your religious, Trump loving friends! Maybe we can make it go viral!
I skipped the drum circle. I did however approach all my fellow creatures with love and generosity. Even the assholes.
That all was pretty hip.
I smoked a bunch of weed too.
I’m so very interested in this. Excellent info!
It's another night of just the dog and I.
A very chill evening with a Manhattan, generous supplies of indica and Jack Johnson playing.
Zero. Bothers.
The movie is over if you'd like to join us there for OT.

She wanted you to buy bananas...for you?
IKR?

See the little ones are as much banana as I can handle. By the end of a regular one I’m regretting my life choices. The red ones were boss though.
It's also economical. Do I want one big nanner to rot ore 6 minis to rot?

Eating stuff when you are sick is a good way to get an aversion to it.
Banana Bread!
Corn bread has priority for any kind of unpackaged bread.
Do you add cheese or Jalapenos?
yes …

The what party? I think you mean the Trump party.
...or the Putin party.
Trump goes on a jealous tantrum in 3 ... 2 ...
Trump didn't even put Stefanik on his short list, which was embarrassing, so now she has to dance around like a little monkey.
And none of it will get her on the short list.

Botox too. And she needs a full time make-up artist and fashion consultant. Are those regular congressional staff positions? Just asking
--Supreme Court Rejects MTG’s Claim That Her Rights Were Violated When She Was Fined for Not Wearing a Mask
A $100 large is her house fine.
Just before Pelosi gave up the speakership, she should have had a big ass party and thanked MTG for paying for it.
I would add a few zeroes..........
Please tell me she can't pay it with campaign $.
I think she already paid but can't recoup.
It was deducted from her pay.
Womp.

Maybe they've realized that the leopards may very well eat THEIR faces.
How anyone can vote for a twice impeached convicted rapist and fraudster and aspiring dictator is beyond my pay grade.
Let's hope that they are getting tired of his nonsense.
Almost all of these craven fuckwads will come home and vote for him in Novemnber.
Yeah I think she is basically hanging in hoping he’ll go to jail, which, samesies!
Or to Hell. I want to see the videos of some She Demon pegging him.

It would certainly be true to form "I'm ahead so stop counting the votes."
So many of them from here on are winner take all.
I wish that weren't true.
OK, I just had Lillet for the first time (a Lillet spritz) and it's *delicious*.
What does it taste like?

Scandal
I bought the audio book of The Three Body Problem tonight. I have a feeling I may not be smart enough to follow it. :)
By far the weirdest part is the description of life in China.
Does this involve the crawlspace under your house?
No, I think that was an episode of the X-Files
I thought that episode was "Home".
It was. OMG that was awful. We watched it every week back then. I was thinking more of Squeeze and Tooms.
I guess it's all about threesomes then. That can certainly be awkward, that's true.
Foursomes are more difficult.
At least there's an even number of orifices. Orifixi? Orifixum?
You're entering into orgyland there. Shag carpeting and a sunken living room.
Orgies are orgies. Foursomes try to bridge threesomes to clusterfucks. It's hard!
It's all daisy-chains and laughs.
Until someone puts your eye out...
Three Body Problem does not have a closed analytical solution. That means it's really kinky.
You can work it out with a pencil
You make it sound like a splinter.
As the engineer says, “I can get close enough to make it work.”
There's a special case solution.
There's always the rosette.
I ... understood that.
Here's your merit badge.
It gets extra kinky when Moms For Liberty are involved.
Then it becomes a stooopitt body problem.
From the trailers coming out, it looks wild, I really want to read the books before the series starts.
Physics joke. Sue me.

Of the republicans registered in SC, what percentage showed up?
The election commission doesn't have those statistics on the site yet, but here is where to find it when it's available. https://scvotes.gov/elections-statistics/voter-participation/
My rough back of the envelope math says about half (there are around 1.5 million registered Republicans in the state, and just under 750,000 votes are expected to be counted).
I like that. Half the Republicans staying home and Trump is still underperforming.
Yeah but did they stay home because they don't like him or because they knew he was going to win anyway?
Historically I think Republicans tend to turn out for winners and stay home for perceived losers.
Democrats cheerfully turn out for everyone. I voted for McGovern!
That is the question. Though supporting a winning candidate tends to get their voters out more. That didn't happen today.
