Homemade apple pie in exchange for blowing some leaves in my neighbor’s yard…I’ll take this deal all day long.

All that vegetarian stuff said (you guys are), the convection oven makes for a great large sized air fryer (which is really just a counter sized...

This is what we use. Obvs, you gotta adjust the size of everything….don’t know if that is what you mean for personal sized boules… ...

Outstanding! There has to be a story behind this?!

Granted I think all my experience on induction tops is in Europe. Even my friend's "cheap Ikea bullshit" induction top heated water faster than my...

I don't think there are many things faster than an electric tea kettle when it comes to boiling water. I think that's probably because of the physics...

Last year 5 restaurants in ATL were awarded Michelin Stars (four more were awarded last night as it turns out), and last week the wife and I...

The first time that I sat for the International Baccalaureate history subsidiary level exam, I got a score of 1. It utterly shocked everyone in my...

Your education is relevant for discussion because over the past four years, you keep on gratuitously reminding the forum about it. I expect...

Well, interesting take. I have a slightly different view but not by much. What wrecked the democratic party was the arrogance at the top of the DNC...

I’d say page six of this thread (i do 20 posts/page) beats Page Six of the NY Post.

Might switch.

You aren't reading the NY Post anymore? What about PAGE SIX! :)

It's a royal shame. Sebastian Smee with his art columns. Jennifer Rubin as one of few op-ed columnists who provide analysis (as opposed to making a...

I canceled my Post subscription this morning. Goddamn shame.

Folloup - I've been using the Steel Partner this summer. Got to say it is very good and rugged as heck. There is nothing to hate about the stove,...

It’s not required to endorse. In fact, by the way it went down, they may have actually strengthened the argument. That said, Jonathan Last (a...

Stay with the Everest and just get the 2X version...however the Everest is not as fuel efficient as the Camp Chef Mountaineer which uses about half...

If you're going to take these shots at me, I get to shoot back. I have an MA in American History and I am editing my thesis in Military History, and...

The billionaires are preemptively bowing to the fascist. Doesn’t bode well.

An endorsement by definition is not made by the news section of a newspaper, and this was the head of the editorial section (as in Will Lewis acting...

Friday night train from Manhattan.

Perhaps foolishly I look at coalition models with a bit of envy … the two party system seems so distorted by calculations about who can win based on...

Joe Biden was to be a "place holder" while the Democrats developed a candidate for 2024. In 2020, Biden was ramrodded to be the candidate even though...

I think the "outrage" is more that the decision seems to be due to Bezos acting to protect the rents he extracts from his monopsony at all costs.

Hilarious! Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister were TV gold!

i think you are mistaken. I doubt the present two party system will produce a moderate. Both parties are largely beholden to their business...

As an information warfare guy, I guess I don't get the outrage over a newspaper not supporting a candidate. Are so emotionally invested in a...

I lied - Garro.

Interesting tines when Taylor Swift and Beyoncé exhibit more political courage than two of our largest newspapers.

I've been reading WaPo since my High School history teacher arranged for no consequences newsprint reading during her lectures. Buh bye beeches. ...

Just shared the anecdote to illustrate how my perception of The Guardian as a Pravdaesque organ of radical progressive ideology isn’t shared by my...

Couldn't be wider of the mark. And given that this is a single-source commentary from a former employee (the circumstances of whose separation from...

Preferred Sources. Local interest, food, sports (the trivial or inconsequential): LA Times Travel: NYT Europe and ME: Grayzone Culture...

We had some friends over last evening and Mrs. RW dialed up some "ghoulosh" (get it?), so the bread order was placed early in the week.

What is your preferred news source?

There’s a difference between the Guardian and NYT?

One last one before I go ! Columbus MAX-OR 650B Dirt Roadster, will fit 2.6" tires = waiting for final stem, this one is a fit-up, will have an LD...

That’s certainly a very complex situation. I’m not sure how anyone can cover that without some perception of bias.

I would say the NYT coverage of Gaza, Lebanon and wherever might be Next-anyahu has been problematic but I will leave it at that.

I can’t help thinking that quite a few of the WaPo reporters (esp. the veteran reporters) and a few of its columnists (Ms. Rubins in the op-ed) could...

The Times is pretty good for everything except US political news. I’ve let my subscription lapse and probably won’t be re-upping. As to my...

I look at the Guardian, AP and Al Jazeera, AJ to counterbalance the establishment propaganda that is the NYT, which I look at for 'culture'.

I guess at least I'll remove WaPo from the list of best online news sources. Apparently, neither the Washington Post nor the LA Times will be...
