Fuck that! If the bastard moves then force them to change the name or pay a high price to keep it for shitting on their fans. They shouldn't benefit from the Chicago brand while hiding from taxes in Indiana. The sleazy bastard.
I don't know who Jake Lang is but crying victim while wearing a fucking vest with INFIDEL on it makes me think perhaps he's a RW instigator. Going to Dearborn to try and replace its fictitious Sharia Law with his own fascist, Christian version. Fuck him!
I think this is important. My former state of TX would probably be ignoring this and/or holding back information. Glad we moved to a State that at least tries to follow/use science.
Just tried again. Nope. I can't wait to get back to Michigan...😃. I'm a grown ass adult who served my country and I can't even message a friend on social media because I'm in a state that is obsessed with things that it ignores in its elected leaders and President. Weird.
Took in the Pro Football Hall of Fame while there. Bucket list item. Pretty cool.
I'm happy to see anyone wake up from the brainwashing but this is bullshit. He has always been a greedy, fascist, piece of shit. She just fell for the pandering and flag waving. I would prefer her to say "I was wrong and a dumbass" rather than pretend he changed and was once a noble figure.
Saw this post this morning. I hate this take. If a lot of mother fuckers had voted when the opportunity existed we wouldn't be here. We wouldn't have a RW court and this wouldn't have happened. To keep a democracy people have to get off the fucking couch and vote for the best of 2 options...always.
Another one. I hate Hegseth and view him as a disgrace to the oath I once took myself. But this is bullshit and a minute of research would prove that. We don't need to make shit up. Look around. There's plenty of real shit happening before our eyes .
I despise Trump and every one of these fuckers. I also believe they post messages in unison, probably with direction from the regime. But the timestamps have all been removed, which leads me to call bullshit on this. We don't have to make shit up. There's enough real shit to bitch about.
He's a fucking Mafia boss, minus the basic human level of compassion and integrity that even the typical Mafia boss exhibits. In short, he's worse.
I've never been one to blame the President for gas prices, regardless of party, because there are too many variables at play and it's rarely entirely their fault. But sometimes we elect a fucking moron and it's 100% their fault. This is one of those times. Slurpees are still $1 though.
I then turn the heat to Medium and immediately add 4 cups of shredded cheese, Velveeta preferred but...I add it slowly while stirring and then stir for a few minutes until it's good and melted. I then add the green onions and let that go for a few minutes.
Once the potatoes are fork tender we'll add our half & half and an optional small bag of Real Bacon pieces. I usually use 1 qt of h&h for 10lbs but I'll guess at 4/5 with 8lbs and bake something later with the left over h&h. We'll boil for another 15 minutes or so, occasionally stirring.
It's now at a rolling boil. I will let that go for about 20 minutes, occasionally stirring.
I cut up one bunch of green onions. I'll add these in a bit. Btw, I hated potato soup until my wife taught me how to make it this way. Now, it's one of my favorite dishes, especially on a cold, winter day.
It's starting to boil but not yet. The wooden spoon is there to help keep it from boiling over.
I usually have a ham bone to add but I was an idiot this year and left it out. So, this is what we have.
This takes a big pot. I fill it with water about an inch or so over the potatoes. I also add salt and wait for it to boil. In addition, I add diced up ham, leftover from Thanksgiving, in with the boiling potatoes to give the potatoes even more salt as they boil.
I usually use 10lbs of potatoes but 8 will do. I wash them first and then cut them into cubes, skin on.
I posted this recently. From last winter. Can't wait to see this out our bedroom window again. Michigan is a different level of beautiful.
