I prefer the latter term, as it's more descriptive.

When DonOld loses in November, the MSM "journalists" will have to transition to real journalism. I hope the schools of journalism in New York City and Washington offer discounted classes on Basic Journalism.

Dill AND parsley, for the record, if you're gonna use dill as a significant component at all. A bit of parsley will soften and round out the dill flavor. Use half as much parsley as dill, it should merely complement the dill, not be a noticeable component of its own.

I feel sorry for her, she did her arguably best work solo or later teamed with Mathtew Sweet. They were golden together.

(posting again - I'm hopeful every morning)

Man goes to kiosk, buys newspaper, looks at front page, put it back down, walks away. He does this for days. Finally, the kiosk owner says - why do you keep doing this?

The man says, I'm looking for an obituary.

Kiosk owner - they're not on the front page.

Man - this one will be.

WTF yo, Men's cancer cases are expected to rise 94% in the next 25 years, and deaths by 84% in that same time-frame? Deaths among Gen X expected to more than double current rates? Seems to be a legit source.

It couldn't be the environment and all of the shit we've already done to it, right? But "Apollo Projects" are fucking stupid wastes of tax dollars, right, Rs?

I’ve listened to a few recordings and I can’t tell it’s a lisp at all. Granted I have some hearing issues. But still I just didn’t hear it.

"Well, apparently Donald Trump’s Twitter mutual dong-honking sesh with Elon Musk went poorly. We hear Trump had a really pronounced lisp and sounded like a fucking loser and an idiot."

Elmo the man-child broke Xitter beyond repair, especially with his Right wingnut pronouncements, his Vox Populai (is he still doing this, IDK?), his belief that he can sue advertisers for no longer advertising to protect their brands, giving Tucker Carlson a new outlet, and holding screwed up interviews with RINOs like DeSantis and the Fulvous Flatulence. (Speaking of Elmo suing, I expect to hear any time now that he is instituting a reverse class action lawsuit aimed at all the potential buyers of Tesla products who have decided against it because of his extremist politics.)

As for the Amber Ardipithecus ramdus sounding "like a fucking loser and an idiot[,]" he is what he is (pardon the tautology) and always will be. A leopard can't change it's spots.

As to Trump’s lisp, as I said last night, there is a piece of audio production gear called a de-esser. It does pretty much what it sounds like. S sounds can jump out and be annoying, so they made this thing that lowers the volume a little bit when there’s a bunch of high frequency. If you abuse it and set it wrong, it can make you sound like you have a lisp. In fact, it sounds exactly like what Trump sounded like yesterday. Shitty engineer. That he still hadn’t fixed it after even one minute means there probably wasn’t even anyone in the seat.

Entertaining as it is to poke fun at him, I gotta say, this one is on someone else. But hey, anything that makes him look like an idiot is fine with me. Just thought y’all would want to know.

Alternative: his audio engineer, understandably, despises him.

I do agree. But how does a presidential nominee, and former one, not travel with a portable sound studio and a couple of fucking guys? Or use a car like everyone else?

Which someone at xitter put through a de-esser on its way into the feed. Or used a plug in, which is more likely. Regardless, fail at Engineering 101. I’m going to laugh at this with friends.

Two comments about those NYT links

Of course, PAB fans don't believe the hype about Kamala - that's a given - but the piece was written under the NYT's "Campaign Notebook" section. As it is, it present more evidence that PAB fans are delusional idiots. So why poke fun at it?

For the NYT's Recipes section - I refuse to patronize yet another paywalled area of the Times ( one doesn't get access from a "basic" subscription ). I'm not sure if one can post a "gift link" for these recipes

I'm no longer on xitter and had no idea what time the shit show was supposed to start, but did see " live link" references on YouTube that showed 150k watching at noon, then found out this was way before start time, so would these be indications of bots at the ready?

I live in Tucson; my standard substitution is take the amount of parsley called for in the recipe, double it, use that much cilantro, leave the parsley at the grocery store. By double it I probably mean quadruple. Add lime. Drink a beer. Viva.
