A side effect of this virus is that it's really driving home to me how deep the boomer brainworms are and how big of a gamechanger the internet really is. I am american and have cousins who are french. I talk to them almost every day, and if France is collapsing into sharia tyranny I can ask if it's true and get a response in seconds. If thousands of people are dying in Italy and it isn't a giant conspiracy to make Trump, leader of the only country that exists, look bad, it takes maybe a few minutes to find a lombardian talking about what's going on. My mom talks about my french cousins like far-off dream people that can only be communicated with in ideal conditions, and gets all of her news from the television. She feels like she's on a different planet.

What's this supposed to prove anyway, even if anything in it was true? John Wayne's real name was Marion Morrison, oh no *lovely boomer memes turn to dust*

My god, how could Elizabeth Warren ... take the name of her husband? And Ilhan Omar ... not take the name of her husband? Hmm, seems tricky to get this right. Wonder why.

Well none of them are "true" in the way it's trying to claim but most of them have a link. The Sanders one I just can't find. Closest is that his mother's maiden name is Glassberg but that's not even tenuous to Gutman.

Closest is that his mother's maiden name is Glassberg but that's not even tenuous to Gutman. It's an extremely tenuous thing because his father arrived under the name 'Eli Gitman' and indicated that his mother's name (Bernie's grandmother) was Jetti Gutman. So apparently your 'true' name is that of your paternal grandmother, which I am sure is what everyone is using.... Also, Bernie's father changed his name to Eli Sanders when he naturalized, which is completely allowed and normal - the forms for naturalization literally have a section for 'Hey, would you like to take this chance to change your name?' that plenty of people use because they want to adopt a new name. The entire list is basically just legal name changes made.

And we probably need to spend the tax money we've collected on supporting state medical response. Don't /. but the Bush tax rebates didn't work. https://www.thebalance.com/bush-economic-stimulus-package-3305782 Why would we expect everyone to suddenly go out and spend money? Toilet paper purchasing isn't going to boost the economy and every entertainment business (in person) is closed.

Maybe it is just as simple as "Give people money to stimulate the economy!" to them and I'm being more fair than I should, but I think the point of the checks is "Some people are out of work and they still have to pay bills." Like, I have no job effectively for the next two weeks, which means I'm not making any money, and I live paycheck to paycheck. So, just giving me a check for a thousand dollars would help me and people like me. That said, this (along with prohibiting evictions and foreclosures for the next month or two) are absolutely an attempt to get people to forget who started the problem in the first place, but this should have been something the Dems should have pushed for as a PR move and a way to say "He screwed it up but we'll try to help you out" rather than talk about means testing and tax credits.

And they’re gonna bail out big businesses that we’ve propped up multiple times. So giving people money is far better than giving it to rich people in my book.

While you’re in quarantine, a great way to pass the time and not go stir crazy is housework. So don’t be afraid to give your roommate’s cast iron pans a good old soapy scrub; they look on their face when they see your work will be truly unforgettable.

And what better way to prepare them than a nice long soak in water? For better results, add some salt in first - it'll help break down the oils that inevitably collect on the surface!

How is a tax credit going to help people pay the rent in the next 30 days? As for means testing - well poo poo, with all this income inequality, most of it will go to people who could use it so uhh, silver linings I guess?

I've got a friend who became one of those bullshit start-up millionaires and his best friend is one of the chuddiest chuds I've ever seen. This friend of mine is hardcore into market analysis and has relatively conservative ideas about economics, but even he was laughing at how stupid the $1.5 trillion stimulus injection was, and suggested days ago that the best option for managing the situation was just cutting checks to everyone. It's loving embarrassing that the Democrats are getting owned from the left by Trump and the Republicans on this issue

There is actually an excellent reason not to use teflon pans: the coating is mechanically weak and you will replace them every 1-4 years. Or just deal with scratched and beat up pans. Also they really do outgas above 400 degrees, although I'm not sure if that's C or F.

This only works if you're using old timey lye soap. You can wash cast iron with modern soap and it doesn't hurt anything, just cook up some bacon before you cook anything else.
