I think my MiL goes half and half as well. My mom used Miracle Whip often, way more often than mayo and she was regarded as the best cook in the family and my family is humongous. She's the reason I'm a decent cook, just by watching her work. I swear that in school my teachers would think up assignments where we had to bring food in just so they could eat whatever my mom made. Strongly considering getting that spice rack too

I'm coming out. I love Miracle Whip and I don't care who knows it. I have to live my truth.

Doesn't everything trigger protests in France? France not protesting would be newsworthy

So when I was a wee lad way back in the dark ages of the mid to late 80s and early 90s I grew up with a kid that was very, very obviously different and often had a really hard time because of it. Just because they were too young to be sexual at the time didn't mean that they and all the rest of the kids didn't pick up on the fact that they were different. I don't know anything about this bill but I do know that they got a lot of support at school from teachers, aides, and counselors and if they had not gotten this their life may have turned out more tragic than it already did, at least last time I heard about them, was probably a decade or more by now, they transitioned and were mostly disowned by their family and a fell into drugs and prostitution.

They don't speak at all and haven't for a long time

Honestly, it's not a very large sample size (basically 2 households, one in eastern Russia and one in western Russia) and my wife has to translate most of it for me because my Russian is terrible and these topics always lead to fights so are largely avoided but I'll try. 1) The Moskva came up because my wife's uncle is a proud Captain 1st rank (retired). He holds a view like what you posted, the ship sank because of an accident and not because Ukraine attacked it but also that they must avenge it and make Ukraine pay. It might be important to note that he lost his eldest son on the Kursk and that also colors his views on top of being a proud Russian naval officer. 2) It's entirely glossed over, there is no contradiction. Putin is in Ukraine to save Russian lives and reports of dead Russians are propaganda and also acceptable for the greater good and it's also payback for the 2014 Odessa clashes and other incidents were Russians and pro-Russia supporters have been killed. Though their view of those incidents tends to vary pretty wildly from what I've read about them but I honestly can't say if their sources are better than mine or not. I hope that helps a little bit. I'm trying to be fair to them despite strongly disagreeing with them, they are family after all.

Just that I agree that we should be very skeptical of reports of the "Russian position" on things especially when the reports are so contradictory but also that I found the post funny because my own Russian family members actually do hold a lot of very contradictory beliefs* on the war in Ukraine, such as it both being and not being a war. Also, that I'm trying not to apply my experience with them to anyone beyond them who has not explicitly stated their stance(s) *Who hasn't been guilty of this at some point though I do think it's especially sad because I have family on both sides of this conflict, though only the ones in Ukraine are in danger

Commercial for a new The Man Who Fell to Earth comes on and my wife says that seems like something we should watch... from the producer of Star Trek Discovery and Star Trek Picard.

Sounds like something my wife would love, especially if you replace the Greek yogurt with the thickest sour cream you can find and then top that with some dill

I generally agree with this but that totally represents my in-laws in Russia... though if it must be said, I cannot say whether those same sentiments are as widely held by the majority of Russians.

He chose Harvard though the point still stands

Thanks for that link. I didn't remember a lot of this stuff.

I had an over easy egg with ketchup and a slice of toast. Green onions and scallions are the same plant but I think spring onions are a different plant. E: I just looked it up and it says green onions are traditionally more mature and scallions being the same plant just younger but nowadays it's mostly just how whoever labels them wants to call them. E2: Spring onions have a bigger bulb

Rothaniel on HBO. We really enjoyed it.

Yeah, the article said they were originally for the ANA. I was curious who we bought them from because I didn't think we could buy stuff directly from Rosoboronexport (though it's been years since I heard that) but then I remembered I'm on the internet and looked it up.

Maybe a stupid question but where are we (the US) getting Russian helicopters from?

IIRC I'm probably missing a lot or possibly even completely wrong because it's been like 15 years since I watched it.

We've got 3 air filters in our house (bedrooms and living room) and the cost of the filters is crazy. I had to give up drinking so that I could afford clean air.

I googled this and I still have no idea what it means Thanks for the info!

The first two Dawn of War games and their expansions were great in their own ways but the third game was terrible Is Trent Oster's Saturday morning cartoon game co-op only?

I haven't played it yet. I keep restarting with new character ideas and rarely get past chapter 2. I also deleted all my other saves, not sure why I did that. I know you can just roll a new level 20 for the DLC but I haven't wanted to do that either.

My son brings all the sickness home and shares it with the rest of us

I'm glad you like it so far

What sword are we talking about?
