Interesting article, though it weirdly to refer to Tabasco as a "region" of Mexico. It's a state. That's like referring to Texas as a region of the US. Anyway I prefer Texas Pete's, which is from North Carolina, because I guess it's a rule that hot sauces must be named after somewhere else.

Eric Scmitt: You were assisted by an FBI agent, correct? Jack Smith: I'm not familiar with this Schmitt: He let you into his Toyota Supra to escape the police. Said he owes you a 10-second car. Smith: I believe, I, uh. I don't recall that but it sounds like the plot to the Fast and the Furious

BlueSky is a kind of a Kacey Musgrave place, while Miranda Lambert lives in Oklahoma and has both questionable politics and questionable taste in men. She is a damn good writer. I said it before: Kacey is an essayist and Miranda is a short story writer.

"Donald Trump inherits someone elses hard work, thinks that makes him successful, immediately runs something into the ground the second he is fully in charge of it" is the story of his entire life and we are now stuck in the worst/largest instance of that yet.

Mexican Independence Day in Chicago seems so much quieter than past years. Yesterday I almost forgot the date b/c I saw few Mexican flags even in the south side. Lots of street closures though with the city using city trucks/other resources. Smaller crowds probly due to ICE, gas prices, general mood

This thread. They really do believe this stuff!! You may even hear "spiritual warfare" slip out of their mouths from time to time. Right wing evangelicals really do believe they are in an epic battle between God & Satan. They believe in literal demons.

Had to check out the Cultural Trail at Capitol - it's been torn up but navigable, I ride it all the time. Suddenly, now a dead end with no detour signs, which dumps a main trail in the city into the middle of a major intersection with no explanation of what to do. And somebody already died for it.
