4 Sidecar is a great summer cocktail when you've got a lemon tree. Maybe even if you don't. Refreshing.

Thanks for the early ONT.

12 Tomato gelatin. Pretty sure that earns a night in the box.

13 I’m pretty sure it says in the Bible that if you make a Spaghetti-O’s gelatin dish you go straight to hell.

Lutheran potlucks are hell?

14 I don't love spaghetti-o's, but I've had my fair share. That ring looked disgusting

My sweet Mama was not a good cook, but even she would not fix that horror. She inherited her talent from her English mother who cooked bland. My brothers would laugh at me if she made meatloaf as I'd hide it the best I could in mashed potatoes. It had the consistency of a sponge and I still haven't figured out how she did that...and don't want to know.

Thankful my father's mother was a fantastic cook of everything as she learned as a day student at a French convent. On the border of MS and LA. I learned there is good food you can make from her: French, Creole, seafood, and she baked. Fantastic.

I left you a note at the cafe about us painting cabinets for one of our bathrooms a couple of years ago. Dark teal...when I saw your kitchen post.

Dirty Moore beef stew used to be a LOT better than it is now. Dad would always take two slices of bread, lay them on the plate and ladle the stew on top. Salt pepper. Delicious.

95 We came to the US from Germany late '86. Ended up with no personal car so rented one for a trip to Florida. Turned on the radio at our 15 yr old's demand and the tune was Walk Like an Egyptian. We all laughed very heartily!!

111 Your meatloaf can get a texture of sponge if you let the meat get too warm and knead it too hard. I will guess your mom also liked to cook things from a cold oven to far too hot. That can make hamburger "toothsome"

The men in my family are Grandaddy. Because the South. Except my mom’s dad- he was (are you ready?) Bumpa. Because he saw it in a movie, thought it was hysterical, and that was what it would be.

He also had a song and dance he did to get rid of warts (he played the guitar). It was a series of specific circle directions. I wish I could remember the lyrics, but I never had a wart, so it was just my cousins. It worked, though, so…*twilight zone music*.

Ohhhhh….sounds very cool! I wonder if I should horde source my decisions. Just repaint the same colors or totally new. I picked the original colors, so it’s not that I don’t like it. And the house is open, so there has to be some connection. But I literally painted every single thing in this house black fox or Greek villa. Nothing else.

The cabinets were oak from 1994. Shower door a mess, slick tile floors, etc. I wanted dark teal & that's what I got. It looks more like a dresser than vanity, if that makes sense.

We upgraded our bathrooms in FL before we moved, but cream glossy paint(built home for 20yrs) & two different owners have kept the bathrooms as we left them. Same deal: wooden appliques & painted over it all. New light fixures and hardware and done.

Sometimes I miss Florida, mostly my pool. Dang it. I do have mountains now but it's hot & not my favorite time of year.

Miami Vice just started the year we moved (1984) with a newborn and 2yr old. Our Friday night date. Adding '80's music to the show was great.

No wonder the Democrat party is having trouble finding any "real men" to run as candidates. I thought protecting females was the default position for any manly man.***

Mine in nursing school:
Cereal, juice and instant coffee poison
Cheeseburger, fries, Coke at student union or hospital
Cheesburger, fries, salad, milk for dinner unless it looked edible. Maybe dessert.

Never gained an ounce. Youth and a lot of walking as I did not own a car (Daddy would not let me take the Impala and it was in his name...it was his last desperate try to keep me from moving).

I had legs of steel and rode busses or got rides with friends or the dude that married me.

I hitchhiked one time and got picked up by an undercover cop in a heavy snowstorm on Thanksgiving at 0615 for work as a nurse tech...I didn't know the busses were not running that day. I was freaked out as he yelled at me for most of the ride, got my MS ID and I thought he'd call my parents.

I said let me out a few blocks from the hospital and I'd walk.No. He drove me to the front door and then I thought he'd march me into the nursing director's office. He said he'd arrest me if he caught me again.

But I owe my life to Chef Boyardee.

Last I heard he was in a card game with Amelia Earhart, Elvis, and DB Cooper. Haven't seen any of them this week however.

Speaking of DB Cooper. Haven't seen him here for a while. Isn't he fire-fighter tanker pilot???

275 In terms of shear numbers, Fauci has undoubtedly killed more people than Mengele. Fauci gets better press though.

276 >> Guy walks 1,000 miles to a chick's door and then collapses. That's supposed to impress her?

It might make a difference between nautical miles, statute miles, and international miles. I wish they'd been more specific.

277 91 Jimmy Hoffa was dumped in the Meadowlands.

They were going to dump him in right field for the final joke but decided if they did that he would get them for sure. He's out in left field.

281 I saw a post on X about Cueta, Spain being in North Africa.

Sure enough. It is not on the Iberian Peninsula.

Will Spain ask NATO for help? LOL.

Right? Amazing that life can sustain itself with a single digit IQ.

283 So the murder victim in Ayanna Pressley's husband house is an 18 year old woman.

I guarantee the MA cops will keep this sealed until after the election if it does turn out to be related to Captain Queball of the squad

284 >> Cueta, Spain being in North Africa.

I didn't know that either. There's a long history there.

It's an enclave, or better an exclave I think. And Spain isn't going to defend it.

Quick Hits

Fauci's journal: the people criticizing my performance are only doing so because they want to "destroy democracy."

You see, he's not just Science, he's also Democracy.

Attacks on Anthony Fauci were part of a right-wing plot to "destroy democracy," former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) head Anthony Fauci mused in his personal diary released by Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY).

When Fauci was not marveling over his rise to global fame or desperately reaching out to former President Barack Obama for PR help as his reputation sank to new depths, Fauci convinced himself that attacks against him were all part of an elaborate plot of the political right to "destroy democracy."

In an October 3, 2021 entry, Fauci wrote that the country "is headed to or might already be in a constitutional crisis with the far right clearly indicating that they're going to try and disrupt elections and essentially destroy the democracy."

"The attacks on me I believe are all a tangential part of that process," Fauci surmised, flattering himself in the process.

"I speak of the big lie of which I unfortunately have been drawn into being a target of the far right because I represent something that is antithetical to them, namely, the truth," he continued.

Prosecutors release more admissions by Tyler Robinson that he murdered Charlie Kirk, provoking Candace Owens to ask the question, when did the Jews get to Tyler Robinson?

The left claims "Not all Muslims are terrorists." But the left's pussyfooting around calling out terrorism, for fear of offending their Muslim supporters, suggests the left does in fact believe that all Muslims are terrorists. Or at least, they support terrorism.

Not every Muslim is an Islamist, but every Islamist is a Muslim. The vast majority of ordinary British Muslims want nothing to do with their terrorist-supporting co-religionists; in many cases it is the tyranny and cruelty of Islamism that forced them to seek a new life here in the first place.

And yet despite this clear distinction, despite the unambiguous motivations of a religiously inspired psychopath who thought he was doing God's will by attacking a Pride march, there are few politicians -- especially Labour ones -- with the courage to call it what it is.

The X platform is awash with the usual boilerplate, box-ticking condolences you get on such (frequent) occasions. The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, posted: "London stands in solidarity with Berlin's LGBTQ+ community. This is why Pride matters. Those who seek to spread hatred and division will never win."

Those who seek to spread hatred and division? Anyone particular in mind, Lord Khan? How odd that the mayor of a city that has suffered more than its fair share of Islamist atrocities can't bring himself to name the poisonous ideology that provokes such inhuman acts.

Sadly, there were plenty of others who followed the same craven pattern. Catherine West MP predicted that "hope will triumph over hate". But whose hate? Simon Lightwood MP's thoughts were with "everyone affected, their loved ones and the wider LGBT+ community". Everyone affected by what, though? Why did the attack even take place? Any thoughts. Simon?

Ludicrously, Kate Osborne, Labour MP for Jarrow, actually compared the Islamist attack in Berlin to the rise of Reform UK, which would be funny were the implications not so chilling.

I fear the answer to Labour's reticence to call a spade a spade lies purely in electoral considerations. While Andy Burnham's second coming has reassured his party that Reform can be beaten back and its electoral appeal blunted, there remains the headache over what to do about the haemorrhaging of votes to the party's Left, specifically to the Greens. Zack Polanski's party has exploited Muslim anger at Israel's response to the Hamas attacks of October 2023 and has effectively painted Labour as a supporter of Israel and as an apologist for events in Gaza.

Having already lost four previously safe Labour seats to "Gaza independents" at the 2024 election, and with similarly motivated independents gearing up to fight vulnerable Labour-held seats at the next election, Labour is known to be extremely nervous about further offending or alienating Muslim voters. And while most Muslims reject the tenets of Islamism, hyper-sensitive, politically-correct Labour MPs can't help but notice that "Islamist" looks awfully similar to "Islam". Stupid as that sounds, it might explain the cowardice of so many MPs in refusing to name the real cause of so many terrorist acts in recent years.

A DHS official put out a list of the worst activist judges. The media shrieked that he was endangering the lives of judges by naming them.

But the media attacks people they don't like all the time. Are they confessing they are putting their enemies' lives in danger -- and either don't care or affirmatively desire that outcome?

A high-ranking Trump Department of Homeland Security official called out the "liberal media" for what he referred to as the "absolute absurdity" of its response to his series criticizing activist judges.

James Percival, general counsel for the Department of Homeland Security, posted a series on X last week, "Worst of the Worst, District Judge Edition."

In his posts, Percival pointed to the risks that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents face while enforcing the law, saying some judges are working to "sabotage" those operations and put officers "at risk."

After his posts, Percival said DHS was contacted by a Chicago Sun-Times reporter about whether "a social media post like this risk[s] additional threats" in the context of "ongoing threats to federal judges."

In response, Percival blasted the outlet in an X post in which he told followers, "Witness the absolute absurdity of the liberal media response to my new series, Worst of the Worst, District Judges."

Percival emphasized that "legitimate fact based critiques of judges and their rulings is fair game in a free society." He also noted that "the media has no issue with it if the judge is conservative."

Notably, conservative judges, including Supreme Court justices Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, have been the target of intense criticism from the left and, in some cases, violence. In 2022, Kavanaugh was the target of an assassination plot after an armed California man traveled to his home with a pistol, ammunition, zip ties, pepper spray, duct tape and burglary tools. Further, Barrett testified in a recent congressional hearing that she has had to wear a bulletproof vest in response to threats.

The media covered-up Fauci's creation of covid-19.

What is gain-of-function research? Put simply, it includes any efforts by scientists to make a virus or other pathogen more deadly or more transmissable, to better understand ways said virus could mutate to become more dangerous. Doing so, proponents say, helps better inform efforts to develop vaccines and other defenses in the future. But even proponents admit that doing so carries with it serious risks. A virus made more dangerous to study it is still a more dangerous virus; its exposure to humans no less a threat because it was turbocharged for "good" reasons; its likelihood of escaping containment not mitigated by "good" intentions.

In May 2025, President Trump decided such research was too risky, pausing it in the U.S., and making funding of foreign gain-of-function research illegal. Such research had previously been paused under President Obama as part of a new risk assessment in 2014 but resumed in 2017. Dr. Fauci has long been a vocal advocate of gain-of-function research, despite these considerable risks.

Given short shrift in the melee around the facts (by the media, to be clear, not by Sen. Paul and his team) is that this alleged funding of virus-enhancing research wasn't just given to a lab in any nation, but to one run by the Chinese Communist Party, our chief geopolitical nemesis, and by any accounts a malignant communist regime opposed to truth and transparency of any kind. Why would we trust them with anything, none the less to conduct above-board research into a deadly pathogen, particularly when they had displayed a long history of safety lapses?

As I argued on The Hill's Rising podcast with Emily Jashinsky and Ryan Grim back in 2021, Fauci was arguing semantics about what a new rule he himself inserted into funding guidelines said about what constituted gain-of-function research. That sleight-of-hand covered for what was really going on: the U.S. government was sending taxpayer dollars to research, in Wuhan, to make bat-based coronaviruses more transmissible and more deadly. This was happening at a lab doing cutting-edge research on these types of viruses and which had a reputation for flouting biosafety regulations -- a lab just a couple miles from where newly transmissible and deadlier cases of bat-based coronaviruses first appeared.

It should be the story of the century. Could America's top doctor have partnered with the Chinese Communist Party to help to unleash a global pandemic that killed millions? Why, ahead of said doctor's public testimony aren't outlets scrambling to understand what happened, given all this directional evidence?

I think it's because of the legacy media's love affair with Dr. Fauci as America's supposed COVID-savior.

I worry we're already forgetting just how enamored the legacy press -- the institution constitutionally responsible for holding government to account -- was with Dr. Fauci, certainly before but particularly in the early days of COVID.

To the press, Fauci was a hero, battling dangerous forces who refused to take COVID as seriously as The Science did.

Do you remember how preposterous these headlines were?

High-T Heterosexual and super-Christian James Talarico: I've learned as much about "my religion" from Islam as from the actual Bible.

🚨UNEARTHED

James Talarico — who said he "hates Christianity" — praised Islam for inspiring his religious beliefs:

Daily Wire:

On the campaign trail, Democrat candidate James Talarico often describes his faith as "biblical Christianity." But the Senate hopeful once credited Islamic mystics with shaping his faith just as much as Christian writers, audio unearthed by The Daily Wire reveals.

In a recent interview with The New York Times, Talarico asserted that his faith was rooted in "biblical Christianity." During an appearance on The State of Belief podcast in April 2024 alongside Muslim state Rep. Salman Bhojani, Talarico praised Islam for shaping his religious beliefs. Those comments could come into play as debate heats up in Texas about Islam's growing presence in the state.

"I know personally that I've learned as much about my faith from Salman's tradition, from the Islamic mystics, from poets like Rumi, as much as I have from Christian authors and Christian writers," he said. "This kind of interfaith dialogue, it doesn't water down your tradition, in fact it strengthens it, it brings out new flavors and new colors."
