Scalito and Clarence are tap dancing as fast as they can in the background to slow this down. I am of two minds- first, I want it sent back to get the charges settled in court, hopefully with Defendant PAB found guilty. Second- You know "judge" Loose Cannon in FLA will find for DEFPAB since he has made the same motion there, then the 11th circuit will weigh in, and unless they copy the DC court findings word for word we will have two differing decisions which draws the SCrOTUS in pretty much automatically. Delay, delay, delay.
Mr. Snot and I are meeting another couple for dinner tonight. We've been friends for close to 45 years. There will be ridonkulous amounts of food, cocktails and laughter, and I've been grinning all day in anticipation. And my wonderful hubby is driving designate-ly, so no one will die in a horrific accident, always a plus.
I can't trust any of our so-called friends not to be complete political idiots, anymore, so I avoid socializing. It's a little sad, but it's their own faults for acting that way. Politics was NEVER allowed to be discussed at social gatherings. Now, it's a shot across the bow, and I ain't playing.
And I don't want to talk about ANY politics. Just, let's talk about something more pleasant. My husband has a friend who would not stop just poking the bear with his ignorant bullshit, and now, he's not welcome here. Nor his wife. It's his own fault. He made me loathe him, like, that was his mission. Even my BIL thinks he's an asshole, which was SO good to hear. I'm not the only one.
I have made it clear to my husband that I will not be in a place where one or both of them is also there. That means no camping, no baseball games, and social gatherings.
And it could have all been avoided if this guy just had been polite, and, (and this is key), IF my husband had shut him down. He didn't. It hurt me deeply, so now I will forever avoid those situations. Again, not my fault.
And when anyone asks why, I tell them exactly that.
saw something on Rawstory that said trump's trying to get those two cases "dismissed". Hello, judgment has already been rendered. Not sure whether it was just the lack of legal understanding of the rawstory staff or the lack of legal understanding by trump's "counsel".
He's clearly got bad lawyering. They play for the headlines. It does leave one scratching their head at times. This was Newsweek, big on clickbait. Kaplan last line says the Plaintiff deserves to weigh in. So maybe their will be more to the story. It's unclear if the 30 day grace period has started?
Because of our dear, lovely Holly, looks like I'll be spending some time with Rick Bayless on Yooutub today, for the Mexican cooking I am now craving bodily.
We've got restaurant week here, so tonight we're headed up to the lovely Japanese place in the mountains to have their spectacular tasting menu, and in a few days going to a newer place that has a confit duck pad Thai as an offering.
OMG. I'm also craving fish tacos, Baja styleee, b/c of Holly's mention of enchies. With chiffonade white cabbage, the good guac, all the stuff. You just made it worse.
I'm actually needing to use up some flour so I can clean the flour jar before I get new flour in the groceries today. I have therefore decided this is Focaccia Day. Does that count?
I usually do the Sunday pasta with gravy because married to an Italian but I am repurposing some leftover pasta. I do have some broccolini that Iโll sautรฉ with garlic and some canned clams; no, scratch that, some mussels on the side.
what do you put in your gravy? tried something made by a local restaurant recently and was completely unimpressed. anyway, being lazy, i like to do amatriciana which takes no time. but would like to perfect a sunday gravy.
Sautรฉed onion and garlic, red pepper, salt & pepper, fresh basil, Italian seasoning, San Marzano tomatoes, a little vermouth, a little tomato paste for the basic.
Totally understandable ! XD My sauce is made w/homemade tomato sauce, jarred from our garden. And if it isn't, and must be concocted from ingredients bought from store, I am a lil bitchy, tbf. :blushes:
But honestly, Morgan -- your sauce has me hankering to try some of your additions. Yum !
I was going to try out a new fake steak brand, but Covid decided to tear its nasty head and now I'm looking at some nice bland English muffins and cottage cheese๐
Damn it. Wish I could make you some gentle vegan/vegetarian comfort noms. Fluff and settle your pillows and blanket. We'll be here, if you need something to laugh at, at least.
Thank you! I'm waiting safely in the car for my meds to be ready then have a date with my softest, fluffiest blankets and pillows! One of the biggest reasons I love our little mommy blog community here? The levels of care for each other. It's awesome.
New dessert discovery: Boar's Head Dark Chocolate Hummus! I've seen it before and thought "why". Well it was on sale, so I decided to try it in order to get away from ice cream. It is AMAZEBALLS!
No, its easy to find the recipe on the internet. I use a store-bought crust, which makes it even easier. You do need a food processor or blender, though.
Next week's movie is ๐๐จ๐ ๐ฆ๐.

Thanks for all your movie night goodness
That movie was a lot of fun, and and Rami Malek [sp?] was perfect as Freddie.
So has everyone figured out what the new ICC nym / persona is, or are we just pushing that under the rug?

Thanks, ziggy. I hadn't seen this before, but it makes good sense, will comply with the plan.
Thanks noname!
You're welcome Kavefish!

Thanks!
Does the bus then drive over the rug?
Asking for a friend.
Are you driving the bus? You seem like a good driver, btw.
He's an excellent driver.
I agree with Ziggy, that we could be imposing attributes onto someone who doesn't deserve it.
That's pretty much where I am too, although I'm getting some ideas lately about it-- witnessing some very grandstanding and narcissistic behavior.
Understandably...

trump is long past the "forgot" stage. The data is simply no longer accessible.
Ewic is used to that.
I doubt he noticed it. Or much else.
Eric? Tiffany? Burton? Who are these people?

You were not put upon this earth to "get it," Mr. Trump.
If he "got it," his head would explode.

Same here. How these people can broadcast their political beliefs to all and not consider looking stupid kills me.

YIkes, sorry.
I am anticipating being scolded by MorganX any second. And while I probably deserve it, I'm worried I won't have earned spankings.
You deserve much better.
Get a room, you two!
Earn? I just usually only have to ask. Although, with Republicans grabbing our rights, I wonder if someday Iโll have to fill out forms.
Maybe a couple of purple nurples?

Gavin Newsom Lays it on Thick After Kristen Welker Asks if Itโs โResponsibleโ for Dems to Run Biden, Calls His Presidency a โMasterclassโ

Trump forgot who he was married to last night.
Hardly the first time for that. Sometimes he forgets he's even married at all.
( Just ask Stormy. )
Thank you Gavin!!!!!!!
I guess it would be considered rude for him to ask Kristen why her questions are so stupid.
It pisses me off that they donโt question if itโs responsible for republicans to run a rapist fraudster insurrectionist with 91 felonies.
EGGGG-ZACTLY THIS!!!!!!
The both siderism and SQUIRREL are frustrating.
Itโs just accepted that Trump can be president even if heโs in prison.
But an 81 year old Democrat? Thatโs going too far!

saw something on Rawstory that said trump's trying to get those two cases "dismissed". Hello, judgment has already been rendered. Not sure whether it was just the lack of legal understanding of the rawstory staff or the lack of legal understanding by trump's "counsel".
annoying.
He's clearly got bad lawyering. They play for the headlines. It does leave one scratching their head at times. This was Newsweek, big on clickbait. Kaplan last line says the Plaintiff deserves to weigh in. So maybe their will be more to the story. It's unclear if the 30 day grace period has started?
Found it. Judgement was filed Feb 8. LOL! Tick tock.......
bingo. STFU and decide what you're going to do, trump. too bad it's more work for plaintiff, though.
Because of our dear, lovely Holly, looks like I'll be spending some time with Rick Bayless on Yooutub today, for the Mexican cooking I am now craving bodily.
Anyone else have plans to make noms today?
We've got restaurant week here, so tonight we're headed up to the lovely Japanese place in the mountains to have their spectacular tasting menu, and in a few days going to a newer place that has a confit duck pad Thai as an offering.
rabbit cacciatore
I've been thinking about making crumpets. I may talk myself out of it. It's hard to say.
Iโve got a homemade macaroni and cheese casserole in my plans for later, after I get done working on the remodeling in our former guest bedroom.
May I say....YUM!!!!
Tonight I am making fried catfish sandwiches and spicy cole slaw.
OMG. I'm also craving fish tacos, Baja styleee, b/c of Holly's mention of enchies. With chiffonade white cabbage, the good guac, all the stuff. You just made it worse.
Tonight I'm having pot roast with mushrooms and potatoes.
Drool, drool.
I'm actually needing to use up some flour so I can clean the flour jar before I get new flour in the groceries today. I have therefore decided this is Focaccia Day. Does that count?
Oooh I love making focaccia. I make it every Wednesday for spaghetti night.
Focaccia always counts.
Are you kidding??!
Check e-mail.
If you want, someday we can zoom and bake together. I'll talk you through some focaccia or fougasse.

whoa, vermouth--who'da known? thanks!
Totally understandable ! XD My sauce is made w/homemade tomato sauce, jarred from our garden. And if it isn't, and must be concocted from ingredients bought from store, I am a lil bitchy, tbf. :blushes:
But honestly, Morgan -- your sauce has me hankering to try some of your additions. Yum !
You had me until "mussels"...
You can give yours to me, I wonโt be offended

New dessert discovery: Boar's Head Dark Chocolate Hummus! I've seen it before and thought "why". Well it was on sale, so I decided to try it in order to get away from ice cream. It is AMAZEBALLS!
I am in love with much of the Boars Head line. Their hummus! Their condiments! Their cheese! I'm sure their meat is awesome too, but vegetarian.
I usually buy their deli meat for lunches - this week I will be having London Broil style roast beef and Fire-roasted chicken.
The London Broil on a roll with smoked Gouda, cole slaw, and thousand island dressing.
You're welcome!
When my mom ran delis and sub shops she'd get all her meats from Boars Head.
I'm going to have to look into this. Sounds great.
I saw some of that a while back and was intrigued. Next time I see it Iโll try it!
I just had a piece of chocolate tofu pie for breakfast. Same thing -- "why?" then "yum!".
Oh goodness, that sounds divine.
Wicked easy to make, too.
Is it your own creation? Iโve seen a few recipes for similar, but have not tried one yet. Iโm adept at fucking up the simplest of food projects.
No, its easy to find the recipe on the internet. I use a store-bought crust, which makes it even easier. You do need a food processor or blender, though.
@kavefishbuildshalifax I'm curious too
