  1. I made some tuna salad for lunch and have short ribs in the slow cooker for dinner. Dinner last night was cream of wheat but my wife made it with ghee so it had a slight oddness to it that I kinda dug. I bought some stuff to make ramen tomorrow or who knows when because my MiL wants to make meatballs some time soon too. She's not a bad cook but leans really heavily on tomato and dill on pretty much anything she can. I dunno if that's just her quirk or a regional thing.I won't say it's bland sometimes but rather the flavors in her dishes generally very light. That's not a bad thing on its own because I really like to mix it up but it's every dish and sometimes I just want a little more flavor.
  2. I wouldn't go that far, especially so soon, but I generally agree with everything before that
  3. It's grown on me a little bit in the second episode but something about it feels off to me. My wife liked it more than me and she's usually more picky when it comes to Star Wars but she did think the pacing was weird. And then Disney decided my Hulu Live bill wasn't big enough so now I might be dropping live TV altogether
  4. No, just mostly. I play strategy and sports games too. Though I do mostly play them as RPGs
  5. I think the PS4 is my last console for a while and everything upcoming that I'm interested is on PC Mostly though it just comes down to time and the kinds of games I enjoy in my dotage
  6. Meh, not the first Obs game I've skipped. And now I have a sudden urge to go watch some Rick Moranis movies
  7. I just want to be able to get sick without losing everything and I think that's a far cry from some communist revolution. After spending some time in countries with universal healthcare and the like I've got to say that I never saw anything like death squads and dictatorships. Except in Canada.
  8. Well, pretty much nobody is asking for full socialism though so you don't have anything to worry about. They want better social programs, health care, and safety net. It's kind of like when you bring up being libertarian and someone will inevitably suggest you want the most extreme full blown libertarian scenario they can think of when that's not really what you want at all.
  9. That's not how this works. We only deal in absolutes when it comes to capitalism/socialism except for when it helps our arguments.
  10. I want an economy built on sloth or wrath or both
  11. Can't they appeal to both greed and envy? I'm thinking of something like keeping up with the Joneses
  12. Not a fan of the weekly release schedules as I have some measure of self control
  13. That's why I bought it on release, I wanted to support something different, but I'm still letting it sit a while before I actually play it
  14. Still haven't gotten there but I did rewatch the Petey Wheatstraw BOTW by RLM
  15. Tulsi is one poll away from making the December debates These socialism arguments almost always end the same A: we want this B: no, that's socialism A: but blank does it B: well ackshually... A: then let's have that B: no, that's socialism
  16. I do enjoy the tang I finally got a look at the original recipe for the dish from the 80s (it's an American dish inspired by Spanish and Morrocan cruisine) and it calls for way more sugar than I use but I've seen so many recipes talk about cutting or dropping the sugar which is why I've been toying with it. That and just a general push to limit sugar.
  17. I can't say for sure since I don't hang out much elsewhere but I doubt it's all that much different. I play a lot of sports games and there isn't much, if any, competition in that space so people argue about which year had the best entry.
  18. Chicken Marbella time again. It's funny how much this gets requested since there was some hesitantcy to make it the first time around. Chicken thighs only this time around instead of legs and thighs and the rest is generally the same. Green olives, capers, prunes, and garlic with oregano, sugar, pepper, paprika, cinnamon, and salt in white wine with red wine vinegar. I use chicken bouillon to punch it up a bit but that's pretty much the guts of the dish. Or at least the recipe I'm working with. I've thought of dropping the sugar and using a sweeter wine but since wine isn't my game I've been holding off.
  19. I have a lot of issue with the storytelling in Disco but that's not one of them.
  20. I was thinking of a spandex cowboy outfit
