Just buy a cook book and do what it says. It's that easy.
Unfortunately a large number of Americans are unable to follow written instructions. At all. If you give them a list of 5 steps, they do maybe 2, skip 1, and get the last two wrong.
I like how everyone is pretending it’s all over because of a bad month in the stock market. Roughly 90% of what happens in this year will have no bearing on the midterms. People only care dearly about the now.
Most stonks are up today based on lower-than-expected inflation reports.
 
Who's responsible for repealing all of the stupid emissions standards that heavily discouraged selling fuel efficient small and cheap cars and trucks in America like the Mazda BT-50 or Ford Focus?
I hate the CAFE standards, but unfortunately they were enacted by Congress and regulated by the Department of Transportation so EPA cuts probably won't have much effect.
 
If that's the case the only thing that can be happening is the Ukrainians are doing what they always do. Killing Russians and making them pay dearly to take anything back. Basically, letting the Russians take it but making them pay far out their asses for it.

I highly doubt the Russian military went from garbage to competent in 2 weeks. LOL
Probably not a good idea to talk about Ukraine ITT due to a certain jannie who lurks here.
 
The Russian military was holding back. The only reason they've really lost to Ukraine is due to losing the Dollar War. Russia still has plenty of gas left in them to retake things. I imagine Ukraine isn't in any position to maintain needless expedientures since their gibs turned off too. I wouldn't be surprised if Ukraine is just letting them take territory.
Trump turned the tap back on today, what are you talking about about?
 
the fuck are you niggas making that takes you 3 straight hours of nonstop kitchen work? even when i make something that takes multiple hours to cook I'm not slaving away in the kitchen the entire time, it's like 20 mins of prep time max and the rest is just waiting for stuff to heat up and letting the food cook. this isn't an all day affair that takes up all of your time.
These niggers could just throw some meat, vegetables, and potatoes in a crock pot and add seasoning for flavor and done. Literally no other input required. Even normal cooking can allow multitasking. People are acting like dinner has to be some gourmet meal from Italy or France.
Stop fucking with the meat industry and allow cattle farming to be more widespread
On that topic, stop pumping commercial meat full of hormones that then pass on to the consumer.
 
The banning soda and candy from food stamps has a fun side effects. With of those things are non perishable and can be bought in bulk easily, so recipients will go and sell the soda and candy at a lower price to someone else for cash. They'll also just straight up lend the card to their drug dealer in exchange for drugs, dealer spends all the money and gives it back for next time.

Either way, food stamps should be for food only.
 
Gavin Newsom apparently secretly partially funded the creation of his own monument in San Francisco’s City Hall. The total cost was $97,000. He donated money from companies he owns to a nonprofit and earmarked the payments for “Mayoral Bust at San Francisco City Hall.”

How the fuck does this guy look like a movie villain in the heroic bust he himself commissioned?
 
I joked about this guy being a spook but I guess I was right in the end
Well think about it. This guy is over here as a 30 year old man, long since graduated college AND graduate school. He should be out working. He has no reason to be at a college teaching 19 year olds to take over a building. He has no reason to be forming protest organizations at a campus. He has no reason to even be at this school at all. There's no way he isn't getting paid to do this. If things go south, he loses his green card and he knows this. Why would he be putting his residency at risk if he didn't have some guarantees? This is insanity. Everything about this Khalil guy reeks.
 
I've taken to watching YouTube videos to the point that the shilling starts, then backing out of it. In the standard YouTube format, the part before the shilling is informative, while the part after the shilling is usually discussion/opinion, so you've already seen the meat of the video and can skip the post-shilling filler.

I also don't watch reaction videos, I just find the original source video and react to it myself. It's so annoying when some retard stops the video 10,000 times to insert their hot takes so they don't get a copyright strike. Then they start shilling Better Help, Established Titles, and Honey. Is there any YouTube sponsor that isn't an overpriced bullshit scam?
Like I don't even mind when youtubers have sponsorships, god knows that site cares more about being a rapeboy of corpos then being an actual functional site. Its just when you have youtuebrs who talk about the evils of capitalism or money or some ditch and then they start to shill you sponsors. That's when it becomes annoying
 
I am not following what your point is. There are plenty of quick and easy meals you can make from scratch, and there are plenty of tools that can do the actual cooking while you do other things. People who can't cook for themselves are people who never bothered to try in the first place.

At risk of being offtopic - I love reading recipe reviews where they say "I replaced x with y and skipped step z, it was terrible. 1 star". It's funniest when it's absolutely critical components.

I once saw a negative review for pork katsu where they did tofu and no bread crumbs. I should've screenshot it.
