I haven't made any of the top recipes of 2023 either (does a baked potato count?), but I am interested in how to become intensely black. Is here a school? Also, too, why is Gingrich still being quoted at all?
Pretty sure the TAs in my Regression Analysis class are learning to hate me. I keep pointing out that they have the data labeled incorrectly in their latest sample code, and that it shows the opposite of what the lectures show, and they keep saying what matters is the interpretation, not the understanding of the underlying data. To which I've pointed out that if you don't understand the data, you sure as fuck aren't going to make sense of it. Also, if an important part of your data is categorical, maybe set it to be a factor rather than letting R and Python both think you are dealing with numeric values, as you get completely different results for certain things. Okay, back to our regularly scheduled day of herding cats.
Everyone knows that the NY branch of the FBI has been infiltrated by folks that report to Russia. Nothing they say can be trusted and instead of cleaning house the FBI lets it remain fuck them.
I have a cousin that works for NYPD and she was trying to get into the FBI she was already pretty well along in the process when her brother who was in the navy at that time told her to stay away from them.
I've seen those circular emails from people unclear on the concept of the words, "global" and "reply all". Benign, boring, work-related stuff, but sent to the entire corporation. The hilarious thing was when others would tell the person not to use "global" and they themselves used a "reply all" email... to the entire corporation. You could hear the loud bursts of laughter from cubicles on the entire floor when these appeared in our inboxes.
No crazypants stuff... keep us posted on the fallout.
it was bananapants enough that corporate HQ called the police to do a wellness check and removed their access rights to the work place.... I have been keeping an eye on the news.
Someone who was a very junior member of my previous department in an industry where you're almost never more than one-step-removed from other people sent out an email on his last day with the company that was essentially a huge "fuck all of you" email without quite using those words. It was really weird, because while he hadn't been a great performer, he was ... adequate, I guess? ... and not really a particularly aggressive person or someone who was anything other than just kind of there. Everyone was like "Wait, X is leaving? And ... he hated all of us?" It was just an inert person who raged on the way out.
yeah, this wasn't a "fuck all you guys!!" kind of rant, this was a Jewish Space Lazers controlling the migration patterns of Monarch Butterflies I'm Gonna Win The Nobel Prize tomorrow kind of rant... I mean way WAY off the deep end.
No, but the guy who was in my position before I was hired got let go because he melted down in the middle of the admin office and told everybody just what he thought of them. He was a piece of work.
Made me wonder what a racially intense white person would be like. Dolph Lundgren in Rocky IV? Walter White before he broke bad? Newt Gingrich himself?

I was in an Italian restaurant in Ohio and ordered brewSKETTa. The server replied, "you mean brewSHETTa?" Sure, what the fuck do I know anyway, I thought but didn't say.
brewsketta is correct, and it annoys me when italians don't know any better. well, it annoys me when anybody doesn't know any better. i'm easily annoyed.
For the record, the server seemed unlikely to be significantly Italian in heritage or upbringing. Aside from just not knowing any better and having no one around who does, I also somewhat blame Americans' mispronouncing of bruschetta on the naming and advertising of a certain "Freschetta" that leans hard into the Germanic soft sch pronunciation.
That Politico article keeps saying the Steele Dossier was "largely debunked." I don't think that's true at all. The most salacious detail, about the Russian pee hookers, is unverified, and Steele said it was unverified. But there's a whole hell of a lot of stuff in there that is true. For example, there was mention of Carter Page's entanglements with the Russians, something that had already caught the attention of the FBI. I don't think it has really sunk into a lot of people's heads that Steele formerly ran the Russia Desk at MI6, the British Government's spy agency. He was a very experienced intelligence official with deep expertise and contacts in Russia. He was not putting out garbage.
They're capitalizing on the fact that most people can't understand the difference between "raw intelligence" (ie, unverified, but also not refuted) and "lies."
Today's forecast: high 63* F, low 9* F. Yesterday it was almost 80. Tomorrow it'll barely get above freezing. Everything that already decided to get into bloom is in for a rough day. I'll give the dying blossoms your regards.
Biden did an interview with Seth Meyers last night. Funny, he didn’t wander off, forget where he was, start calling Seth “Jill” or anything. It’s almost like he doesn’t have dementia at all!

Gordon Jump. Went to same high school I did.

You're doing the Lord's work. Innumerate fools wielding powerful canned analysis programs are truly dangerous.
So now the FBI is worried that they’re going to be up shit street because of Trump?
If the intel community was actually worried about having a Russian agent in the White House, they could fucking do something about it.
Maybe they shouldn’t have given him an assist in 2016 then.

I sure didn't know that.

Evan? What is this?
Are you also wondering where a single fucking mention of Aaron Bushnell is?
Primary day? - hey vote for my candidate

Hey there TABS.... so this morning, everyone in the company, AROUND THE GLOBE got a blast email from an employee.... and it was fucking UNHINGED....
anybuddy else ever receive one of these epic unhinged rants at work?

It sounds like a Fox/OAN/NewsMax/4Chan meltdown. I'm glad HQ was on top of it for everyone's sake. The person needs help.

though he did drop references to The Boondock Saints and Silence of the Lambs, so at least he has interesting tastes in movies.
No, but the guy who was in my position before I was hired got let go because he melted down in the middle of the admin office and told everybody just what he thought of them. He was a piece of work.
Racially intense. RACIALLY. INTENSE. Racially INTENSE!!!
What the entire fuck, Newt?
You have to understand, Newt's a racist.
Maybe he just means she doesn't share Barack's "anti-colonial Kenyan sensibilities"?
Fuck newt.
Made me wonder what a racially intense white person would be like. Dolph Lundgren in Rocky IV? Walter White before he broke bad? Newt Gingrich himself?
Really hard to say.
Wouldn't a racially intense white person be Donald Trump?
Well, yeah. LMAO, for real.

Italian daughter keeps telling me it isn't pronounced "Fuck A Chia," but "foCAHcha." I refuse to believe.

Just saying, most likely, you either watch things here later on today, or you will watch some outtakes brought to you by other people later on.

Food & Wine: I am making that Lemon Pound Cake! As soon as the snow stops I'm headed to the store. I also will make chicken pot pie for dinner. Yum!
Would you try POUND LEMON CAKE? It requires you to sterilize the LEMON though. The best way I found is to pound the shit out of it!

And, once again, the work on that dossier was started by REPUBLICANS as a wedge to eliminate Trump from the ballot.
And look how well THAT worked out...
Yeah, they can't do ANYTHING right.

it's Politico---"Tiger Beat on the Potomac"
Days left in 𝘍𝘦𝘣𝘳𝘶𝘢𝘳𝘺, yet hay fever, rose fever 𝘢𝘯𝘥 spring fever breaking out all over...
At around sneeze number 40, I feel like going back to bed.
Sneezing in bed is frowned upon!
Is there anything we're allowed to do in bed anymore?
I blame it on the Republicans.

My spring allergies used to start in June; now they start in March.
Buds and bulbs are fooled too... My yard is pretty confused
And here’s Part 2 of Seth’s interview with OHJB:
