1 It's tasteless. Not the painting, the vegetable.

2 Expecting vampires?

3 The painting is technically fine, if plain. The vegetable that looks like a brain is only palatable under oceans of cheese. If then.

4 Garlic. Needs more garlic.

Interesting effect in the flatness of the painting and the lack of obvious technique. I thought it might have been Dali in one of his non-surreal attempts.

They are "cruciferous" vegetables, and I think that's why the two crosses are prominent in the painting, but I could be wrong.

189 Morning insight into progressive/victim politics.
---
Victim ranking is a regress in civil order, and the problems we see which each cross section of minority contending for the status of most victimized is competition over a doctrine/dogma in a field of *interests*.

Which is why sane civil societies stopped trying to rank people, and simply adopted a agnostic "equality" of all parties and decision by a vote.

The "progs" don't understand that they are simply regressing their model of civil order by ranking victims from the most to least victimized. All men are not (in any provable way) equal, but the civil practice of equality simply gives up ordering as definable.

But then to give up on that is to give up on modern ideological politics and retreat to Madisonian "interest" politics--which the 19th-century progressives spurned as "selfish".

194 Speaking of garden tools, one I cannot find anymore is called a Dutch Hoe. (no, not Xaviera Hollander) Long, straight handle like a rake, ending in a two-pronged fork with a flat blade welded on the end. Blade is set at such an angle, that if you hold the handle with your arm down at your side, the blade lies flat on the ground. To use it, you swing your arm back and forth (as if marching), and work the blade below the surface of the soil, and it chops weeds off below the surface. The only thing like it I can find now is a "Hula Hoe", and it is not so convenient to use.

206 The picture illustrates the problem with realistic renderings.


They are technically good but can be boring because the subject matter is boring, the composition is boring, the color palette is boring.


If the artist had painted it a little more loosely and with a painterly style he might have been able to salvage it.



There is an artist if follow, his name is James Gurney, he can pretty much paint anything and make it look interesting.


He once painted an alley while his wife was in shopping at a supermarket, it was amazing.


He will frequently paint a parking lot or the back of a store that has infinitely more interest than the painting above.

Yes. Yuge. Cauliflower is not a starch. Waaay fewer carbs, way lower or non-existent (practically) glycemic index, nothing on inflammation scale. The "riced" cauliflower in steam bags works perfectly where you'd use rice in recipes without anyone noticing so like in stuffed peppers or under chili or curry.

I did a lot of recipe adjustment in the beginning of the "big weight loss/inflammation reduction/stomach healing" extravaganza but have gotten lazy and now just eat the simple version, ie raw or roasted (because all the cravings for the old stuff went away). But the family is easily fooled. Trick is never letting them know what they ate.

The old Vietnamese lady who cleaned up for us was cooking, on a single burner hot plate, some sort of stew. She was using various veggies, those white Viet noodles, and snails, no doubt freshly harvested from the paddy where human waste is used as fertilizer. She offered me some, and in the interest of relations with our allies, I gave her a pack of Salems and told her to get lost.

251 Butter, esp grass fed like Kerrygold, is fine to eat. The whole "butter bad" thing was bad science. The only consideration with butter is total calories for the day and if you're eating clean, you're usually in search of more calories/fat not fewer.

That sounds good, but for the same reason that escargot is good.

You could batter fry a washcloth and serve it with aioli and it would taste good, just as it would taste good dipped in garlic and butter.

This reminds me of when I came back to the US after Army service in Germany. I was selected for jury duty, and on the second day, my car died a on the way to the courthouse. Didn't have any contacts in town handy, so I ran 3-4 miles and was a few minutes late. The judge was annoyed at first, but when I explained what happened, he was suddenly pretty cool with it.

326 I have heard of Magical Realism, and seen examples, and it seems to me the hallmark of such art is that it is painted with great technical virtuosity, as in nearly photographic, but some element of the composition is quite unreal.

I don't think this one qualifies. Simply a still life.

338 WFAN was run like a frat house, with drinking by employees starting as early as 10 a.m. and executives condoning buying prostitutes for ad clients, according to a shocking lawsuit filed Wednesday by a 40-year-old former CBS Radio ad exec.

Lauren Lockwood, who worked at WFAN from 2006 until last July, claims the stations executives tolerated a hostile work environment that subjected her to sexual harassment.

On various occasions, WFAN host Joe Benigno pressured her into having a threesome, the lawsuit, filed in Brooklyn state court, claims.


Benigno, 64, whispered in Lockwoods ear about having threesomes with him and his wife and prostitutes, the suit claims.

383 Another sexual harassment case where the female "endured" years of sexual harassment when she was young and pretty and well-paid, then one day, when she lost her looks and guys weren't interested in her, it suddenly became a hostile work environment.

I think about the same thing. As much as I hold Justin Trudeau in contempt I have a life. And having a life I don't have time for nonsense like this.
That leads me to the conclusion that a lot of leftists have empty, meaningless lives.

=============

You would think that if they believed that Russia was the most evil thing in the world right now, that they would do anything they possibly could to not feed into their hands.

I could imagine resisting Trump as part of that (if they really do believe the nonsense that Trump worked with Russia), but what about oil?

There is absolutely no better way to undermine Russian interests right now than to make oil less expensive.

If Democrats honestly believe that we must now undermine Russia in every way shape and form, shouldn't they be demanding fracking in New York?

396 Garden weasels do ok in box gardens and raised gardens but not well at all in ground based gardens imho.

I found it faster to weed by hand then to use the garden weasel in hard packed dirt.

I agree the Russians want to cause chaos--and the media and liberals are making it much easier to do so.

Last I looked it was CNN and NBC that hired Brennan and Clapper. Neither are Russians BTW.

399 Have you ever noticed how raw cauliflower doesn't taste very good? Why do they have those relish trays with cauliflower that nobody eats? Tastes like dirt.

OTOH, I love what Indian cuisine does with cauliflower! South Asian secret: Cook it! And spice the heck out of it to kill the dirt taste.
