    This isn't fog. This is bad. Worse than the 2017 fires. Anything that sits close to a window is covered in a film of ash.

    You guys really do overcomplicate this. She's gone through this many times before. If Bisi naw's out she'll probably take in stride. It's probably to be expected even.

    Yeah I was wondering why the heat was so toned down in the finished product. Definitely had the habanero flavor and the heat definitely increased as time went on, but it was nowhere near the heat level of something like Nashville hot chicken.

    I've tried the churros variation of Cinnamon Toast Crunch. The original is better. But they are thicker pieces and absorb more milk as you eat them so that's a plus.

    People in tornado alley and hurricane-prone areas should get treated with the same amount of apathy then. Oh wait a lot of those people are Trump voters. Although coincidentally the wildfires always affect the CA Trump voters most. Land mass-wise, CA is extremely red. Just the population...

    They've increased the amount of controlled wildfires to burn ground-level dry debris and PG&E is finally being held accountable for fixing their shit ass infrastructure (the big fires in 2017/2018 were largely believed to have been caused by ignored downed power lines). But these wildfires were...

    I guess the wildfires are CA government's fault because the leaves weren't cleaned. Thanks for the wonderful insights there, Trump. Maybe hurricanes are the southeast states' fault because they didn't get rid of all that excess moisture in the air.

    Only ever used habaneros in chili before but I tried a Chef John recipe last night. This was fucking fantastic and the recipe steps can be replicated for so many flavor profiles. Chopped up habanero with garlic and salt. Grinded it into a paste. Added in hot sauce and egg to make a batter...

    He apologized during the fifth inning of the second game of the double header and it was really weird. He was still calling the game mid-apology. Dude's already assuming he's done-for. Said it might be the last time he ever puts on a headset.

    I like watching high stakes competitive sports. You act like everyone who could even consider watches NBA is secretly an Chinese sleeper agent or part of Antifa (a bit inconsistent!). You're making the same assumption extreme leftists do when they think anyone who votes for Trump is a racist.

    I thought the same until I actually went to France and that's the best food I've ever had. But I never really had much French cuisine prior with the exception of a couple Michelin restaurants. Now I make French sauces all the time at home. Easiest way to pep up your veggie game is with some...
