The Locator posted:What a weird tradition, but obviously nothing to call out the Trumpster for I guess. I think its the wording of it. "National Day of Patriotic Devotion" sounds like it would be a national holiday in the DPRK, during which citizens found to not be devoting themselves to patriotism enthusiastically enough would be rounded up and sent off to work camps or shot.

I'll shoot my # over to you for SMS/voice too. Been through sadbrains - never a murder, but been through a couple of suicides via intentional OD (I think 3 now), one of them live via webcam. No matter the cause, it's never fun to deal with death.

And it took me a couple beats to realize it was not her and to remember that she was dead. That shook me up pretty bad, I flagged an employee over, explained I had to leave and apologized for the items in my cart and went to my car where I cried for a bit. Oh, geeze, that's rough. You're talking about it, and that helps. Keep talking - we're listening, even if we don't say anything. It's cool.

They're dirt cheap, and for powders or stuff with varying grain sizes (salt) you'll have yooooge variations in actual amount of ingredient; these are all precisely 1 kg of flour:  (One sifted, one poured, one bumped on table repeatedly.) These are all precisely one liter of flour:  Let me know how it goes for you, PM me if you want advice specific to your kitchen equipment.

I recall the US uses cups as a measurement in cooking. How is that any less dumb than y'know, a weight measurement? I have a million cups in my kitchen, all varying sizes so which is a cup cup? *edit: cup is a volume measurement? loving stupid

Even if you are just using a random container, it shouldn't matter so long as you use the same container throughout the process - it's all relative?

Sure, as long as you measure something with a neatly defined density, not something like flour.

Cooking using mass as the measure of how much of everything you're putting in always struck me as most logical.

I heard a piece on npr yesterday about Holland of all places becoming anti-muslim immigration. They worry about conservative religious persons not fitting in with their established liberal values. That's an interesting spin, I thought.

Sometimes it can be a blessing in disguise. Economy is looking decent right now, so it should be possible to find something new if need be.

Taboo, the BBC TV series with Tom Hardy as a man who returns to Britain after twelve years in Africa, right around end of the war with the United States. Good stuff, and it's only on its third episode, so you can get in from the start Jonathan Pryce is amazing (as always) as the chairman of the East India Company. E: Recommended because I love gritty historical fiction, and this is about as gritty as it gets (without the ridiculous sex+violence excesses of HBO).
