Oh and no emails, boss, sorry, just like with Pesach, there’s a 4 drink minimum.

What’re you talking about? Hanukkah starts on the 25th of Kislev every year. It’s Christmas that shifts about all over the place! Luckily, this year it’s easy to remember as it also happens on the 25th of Kislev.
Though you wouldn’t know it’s one day from going to the stores! It feels like Christmas starts as early as the middle of Tishri these days!
Every single Jewish holiday is crucial to our faith and its the kind of disrespect I’ve become accustomed to that I have to be at work, today, on Mishuga Tuesday.
I’ve gotten pretty good at making a hashbrown in about 7 minutes in the morning.
You grate the potato on a box grater, squeeze out whatever water you can, spread it over a plate, microwave it for 2 minutes with a paper towel over it, then pan fry for about 2 min on each side.
Preshredding does take out a part of that work, but it doesn’t seem worth it for the amount of potato I eat. I’m not feeding a family, though.
I wonder if you could get a good crisp out of the bagged shreds by similarly microwaving them. This part removes moisture and par-cooking them brings out their starches, which is what you need for a crispy hash brown.
A whole new kind of low quality, unimaginative, worthless crap is headed our way. Hurrah!
Is shredded potato a product you can buy?
Like preshredded in a wet bag?
That’s a damn good guess!
I was confused watching Reading Rainbow because I didn’t understand how a blind man could be reading to me.
Lil bonus, I know first hand why floppy disks are called that, but only because my dad had some old games.
They’re not a Russian operative, they’re using Nazi as shorthand for Zionist in an attempt to point out that Israel’s actions in Palestine are utterly abhorrent and the genocide happening there should be regarded with similar disdain as the genocides of Nazi Germany and Harris has taken a hardline stance of continuing US military support to Israel.
But it’s a clumsy shorthand, it’s ineffective in communicating to American voters, as it lumps two different groups of white supremacists together when there’s material distinctions that affect people living in America.
It’s meant to be glib against Israelis who would shudder at being compared to the genociders of their ancestors, but it isn’t Israelis voting in this election, so it mostly comes off as overly bitter.
It’s an easy trap to fall into as a leftist in America, as there’s so much abhorrently wrong with our political system, but that kind of vitriol isn’t often pragmatic and using disdainful shorthand isn’t useful in radicalizing the plurality of Americans necessary to revolutionize politics in this country.
P.S., For what it’s worth, treefrog, I largely agree with you, but you gotta meet people where they are, not where you want em to be. I think you’ll find that many people here are not folks who “just want to get back to brunch”, this was a far more applicable concept in previous elections, but rather they’re terrified of what harm could come from a second Trump term at home with regards to climate, economic (workers rights, etc.) and social policies targeting Muslims, POC, and LGBTQ people. What’s happening in Palestine is so utterly vile and it’s a gut wretchingly sad truth that no candidate that can win will make a significant difference on US policy towards Israel and the Palestinians. Harris should be called out on that. Lumping people who are going to begrudgingly vote against Trump for her as Nazi sympathizers just isn’t useful rhetoric.
I’d love to engage you in your point but that would make both of us sound like complete idiots.
Her smoking pot herself is irrelevant, it’s bad that people were prosecuted for using drugs.
The hypocrisy doesn’t matter, all politicians are lying hypocrites, I’m voting for the one that ain’t supported by Nazis trying to drag America backwards a hundred years.
The “is a hot dog a sandwich” and similar discussions are solved with the mighty sword of language and not some rigid taxonomy about fillings and bread.
Imagine a set of food items on a table, hot dog amongst them, but not other pseudo-sandwiches. I ask you to “Please pass me that sandwich.” If there is but a moment’s pause in your mind before you reach for the hot dog, even if it’s as you surmise I must be speaking about the hot dog as there are no other sandwich-like items available, then it is not a sandwich.

Tangentially, whose idea was it that the day starts and ends at some arbitrary point in the middle of the night, not when the sun goes down? Like hello, sun is gone, day is over
