But if we are to deter illegal immigration, we have to make America at least as horrifying as the country they are fleeing. That policy, separating terrified children from their helpless parents, was possibly the cruelest of the Trump regimeβs evil policies. On top of that, they didnβt build care centers to provide basic childcare needs. We all saw the photos and video of chain link pens with scared children often sitting alone, without clean clothing, diapers, blankets, beds, toys or comforting stuffed animals. The people who created and implemented that policy have no souls. The overwhelming number of immigrants seeking asylum or legal pathways to citizenship is a well-known crisis, and the answers arenβt simple. But intentionally tapping into the unimaginable fear of children and parents being separated, by bureaucrats in a foreign land, to deter illegal migration is Nazi-level evil.
Those people are fleeing their countries in large part because of what our country does down there. America has an insatiable drug habit, and those who supply the drugs create a hellscape in South America.
Prince Albert is working his way through the King Arthur Flour Baking School book and today he revisited one of Chapter Oneβs family favourites, simits, which are these bagel adjacent not-bagels covered in sesame seeds and dipped in molasses water before baking. Turkish. Holy crap, so freaking good! He did make bagels later that chapter and we were like βEh, simits were better.β
I have that one too, itβs why Prince Albert didnβt hesitate on buying this one. Go for it! The worst weβve had is recipes that might have a flavour we donβt like. Theyβve all WORKED, which is massive to me. Like sometimes I buy a cookbook and itβs like β I know enough baking that this wonβt workβ but this one, they all work.
From the Companion book - the Vermont Oatmeal Maple-Honey Bread is my weekly standard. I juggle the flours a bit (this weekβs version has Irish whole meal flour, rye flour, and chickpea flour in addition to the white and whole wheat flours).

I just watched the TV special on him. I didn't know that he founded People for the American Way. Also that he bought one of the original copies of the Declaration of Independence to share with everyone.
I could get snarky, something about Hunter and a part of his body that Republicans seem to be too interested in, but I would say that if Joe brought food, it would be something like potato pancakes.
This is not my usual fair but what the hell expand my choices. They show it either dubbed or with subtitles. We're going with the subtitles to get the better screen.
Fuck. I need to feed myself. I've been asleep for more than twelve hours. Nothing is appetizing. Reading news after getting up is fraught. I'll have Li'l Feller claw my ass and improve my attitude.
I felt wretched in the night. It turns out that eating broccoli and then going right to bed was not the most clever of choices. Then up at 8 for the class. Took care of cats and fire, back to bed, slept away the sunshine, which I regret.
I'm thinking it's a good night for chicken soup. I have bird, carrots, celery, onion, red pepper, broccoli (in moderation), and stock makings. What did you decide on?
Give EVERYBODY EATS!!!!!@!@
Speaking from Dublin, you are welcome to take these gowls pretending to be Irish back whenever itβs convenient, go raibh maith agat.
NΓl go raibh maith agat.
Separating those children from their parents sure put an end to..... what? Not a goddamn thing. Cruelty has never solved a problem.
Inflicting additional pain and suffering on defenseless people is just too much fun to pass up!!
Well, it makes the cruel people feel big and strong, and isn't that the most important thing?
You betcha
I suppose it was intended to send a message to other asylum seekers but who knows? It was probably something Stephen Miller farted out one night.

Another reason I love you. I made this same decision about 5 years ago. I have had to pass on some lovely dresses but i NEED my pockets
While I was reading this I thought "I should share this article on Wonkette, this is right up their alley."

I have their "Baker's Companion" book, and have been thinking of getting the Baking School book.

The movie is over if you'd like to join us there for OT. Tonight's movie was a short one.
Hoping that everyone in Tennessee is safe tonight.

.@POTUS stopped by Norman Learβs L.A. home to sit shiva with his family.
After a Jew dies, it is customary for their family & friends to sit together during the mourning period, tell stories & reflect.
Usually, guests bring food. I wonder what @JoeBiden brought?
I just watched the TV special on him. I didn't know that he founded People for the American Way. Also that he bought one of the original copies of the Declaration of Independence to share with everyone.
I always loved the guy, now even more.
I could get snarky, something about Hunter and a part of his body that Republicans seem to be too interested in, but I would say that if Joe brought food, it would be something like potato pancakes.
Has anyone seen the movie The Boy and the Heron?
You mean this heron?
