Also notice how the long distance, chaotic distribution, and heavy aid boxes force families to self-select their strongest person, who would also be most able to put up a fight to defend their family. Then the IDF is gunning them down when they’re in the chute, leaving starving women and children that are easily disposed of.
I’m not saying it was any actual kid, that’s just the only reason I could imagine being possibly justified.
Maybe he’s shy
Storebought is fine if you need jam and don’t have time or energy.
But if you aren’t up for eating all of those fresh berries in the fridge before they go bad, there’s a reason it’s called “preserves.” And you can mix different berries, even pitted cherries, or I’ve added a pouch of açai before, it’s all good, just different. If you want it smooth, use a blender or scrape it through a strainer. I’ve subbed Xylitol for the sugar and it works too.
The only situation I could imagine in which this decision could possibly be justified is if a small child got hold of a gun (because Texas) and shot her in play, and they’re trying not to ruin the kid’s life.
I had to check, because I was pretty sure there’s already no dyes in their jam and that is true.
You can make jam easily by boiling 2 cups rinsed and hulled (and cut if you like smaller bits) strawberries with the juice of a lemon and 2 cups of sugar for about 8 minutes, scraping the bottom with a silicone spatula or wooden spoon. It will be a nice bright color without any help. If you’re not proficient with doing sterile jars, store half in the fridge and half in the freezer.
Turns out the dyes are mostly in Hostess baked goods and other companies they’ve acquired.
Wanted to get started rolling in his grave.
But they privatized the loot
Oui, d’accord, butalthough he’s not officially a Musketeer until he’s proved himself with gallantry, daring, and disregard for the evil Richelieu and his minions.
Why save it for later? Because it would impede Congress from accomplishing its business? But it’s a Republican controlled Congress that’s hell-bent on passing more aspects of Project 2025. So obstruction is really the only play available for the Dems.
If the shoe were on the other foot, McConnell or Gingrich would have held that brake pedal to the floor. Even though we all know there will be no personal consequences, it’s a method of Delay, Deny, Defend against the handover to fascism.
It’s about controlling women again, isn’t it? A wearable can tell if you’re pregnant.
Nah, they all have wills to keep their wealth from reaching anyone who needs it.
“of the sudden” (1570) actually predates “of a sudden” (Shakespeare) according to my OED as squinted at through the nifty magnifying glass. But it’s been considered obsolete for a long time despite having all of a sudden experienced a resurgence.
(Note, I modernized the spellings of “sudden” rather than try to switch focus back and forth)
Use your broccoli peeler going down the shaft from the pubes and don’t forget to slice off the tip!
I’m a shaft preferer myself, it’s sweeter and won’t be hiding any bugs.
Upvoted and agreed, not least because I just learned that “all of the sudden,” while at present a nonstandard variant of “all of a sudden,” has valid history.
And of course it doesn’t matter in this casual context!
But in formal writing, in this era, using “a” will avoid distracting the reader from your main point.
I’m so old I read this as something about Mortimer Snerd being in the Kardashian clan. I’ve always seen the resemblance. https://images.app.goo.gl/2TgrbwrBvmeiihWv5
Good point. But the fact there were 29 trans-dubious quotes for those amicus briefs to pull does tell us about the NYT’s coverage bias.
That’s because ICE agents are afraid to go into gang territory and try to capture any violent criminals. They’d rather kidnap peaceful workers, especially parents because they can manipulate their fear for the safety of their children. Bullies and cowards all of them.
Butbutbut… Trump said NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE!!! How can this be???
