I’m most excited about the turmeric. I’ve been cooking with that a lot and you can pretty much powder as much of that as you want. Out of the five I initially tried to sprout only two grew, but I’ve got three more in now I’m trying to sprout.

Actually I don’t even think this was the whole seed bag.

This is my first year growing them we shall see! I figured steady salsa supply and I’d try to dry and freeze them. But I’m certainly not going to grow all these. Not having grown them before and not knowing how germination would go I planted plenty. What else are you going to do with them right?

My army of Serrano peppers and a beautiful turmeric plant.

Also my kid for the entire week after she learned it in science.

AIER’s finest weighing in.

The U.S. has not been leaving it vulnerable, that’s EXACTLY why we have NATO jfc.
A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

I saw that new food pyramid so it’s bacon and eggs for breakfast.

This is happening here because of resentment over Walz and a sham daycare moral panic. Targeted and yet arbitrary. It can happen anywhere now.
We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

Long run Phillips Curve assumes people are reacting to a policymaker coherent enough to try to game the system but not smart enough to avoid the trap of the long run Phillips Curve.

So what is the macroeconomics of a policymaker that is completely insane and erratic?

Seems different, right?

Completely useless wastes of a Senate seat.

Even if the moving car spooked them sincerely and this wasn’t quite so cold blooded, if they’re on that kind of hair trigger they have no business being out with guns.

I’ve been avoiding watching the videos but I just did. Good God. I mean, I expected it to be cold blooded but they go from the sort of in-control heckling that is happening everywhere to gunshots in no time. It was so obvious there was no threat it was so normal.

We hear a lot about cover design but not a lot about binding design. Look at that big, beautiful “VEBLEN”! You can read that from across the room! Not many books in my library with that kind of punch.

A 550-pound male black bear wedged itself into the crawl space underneath an Altadena home just after Thanksgiving. Officials tried air horns, cherry and caramel flavored bait and even a trap that caught the wrong bear.

[HELP NEEDED] Is there any literature assessing whether economists' epistemological preference over structural vs reduced-form methods is gendered?

Thanks

Restrictions on impoundment are a direct corollary of “no taxation without representation”: federal spending is determined by the Congress.

Institutionalizing the power Trump grabbed ain’t it, although the temptation will be strong.

I hope a midterm landslide ensures that the resolution to all of this is initiated by a Democratic Congress stripping much of these power grabs back, BEFORE a Democratic president is tempted by them.
If a Dem president wants to impound ICE’s funding, under that precedent, in 2029, he can go right ahead. It’s overfunded.

No Dem is going to use ICE like Trump does, and all of them voted against the extra funding.
I'm genuinely waiting for the good faith response as to why abolish ICE is not a plan. It's been around for 20 years. They just effectively abolished USAID which had been around 3 times as long.

I now firmly believe Trump’s handlers are constantly showing him AI slop content - created to support those handlers own individual, often-clashing agendas.

GenAI companies have created Grima Wormtongue as a service.
