I consider it not a real color, just a sick joke our brains play on us. I also think it’s an ugly color though, and hate that so many modern applications use it as a main color and don’t allow retheming to something pleasant like blue or green.

Best in class should be questionable now when they’re the sole direct cause of a worse global outage than any group of determined black hats ever has managed. If they’re considered best in class, the whole class needs to be held back to repeat the grade.

The Houthi leadership is just as evil as the Israeli leadership, in terms of how they brutalize and murder noncombatants who don’t share their views and want no part in their holy war.

I don’t want him or Harris, but I’d still vote “for” him even if he were in hospice simply because he’s not the fascist candidate who wants to completely dismantle democracy.

And they’re delivering a terrible product.

My family never could. I couldn’t myself until I was around 30, single with no kids. I believe it’s gotten much worse for families that are in that same socioeconomic class, especially those who have kids to raise.

I love Sylvia Plath.

A cast iron skillet. If you use it regularly the seasoning will be so good that it’s as functional as any PTFE nonstick pan, you can use metal cooking utensils on it instead of having to get plastic/silicone stuff (for PTFE), and it serves many purposes from stove top to oven. If you can find a “vintage” one at a yard sale from when they used to hand polish them smooth instead of pre-seasoning them with a rough texture, even better. When I bought a small Lodge one years ago, I used a grinder and sanding discs to polish off the factory textured seasoning and re-seasoned it myself, which worked a charm! If you go that route, I recommend doing it outside, because the amount of metal dust that it stirs up is impressive (and magnetic, so an absolute mess to clean up).
