While this account will remain primarily focused on soup, I do enjoy salads as well, and have been eating a lot lately. So tonight we made croutons from homemade Italian sweet bread and garlic. They came out really crunchy!

Republicans are going to try to steal the 2026 mid terms.
A federal judge in Oregon issued a sweeping rebuke of the Justice Department’s nationwide push to seize state voter rolls, ruling that the department can no longer be presumed to be acting in good faith and warning that its conduct threatens voters and states’ rights.
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.

When I was a kid, we had the same mercury thermometer for decades. New digital thermometers are basically disposable, using a tiny watch battery less than 8mm across. If someone in your family gets sick, sorry, the battery's dead. Have fun chasing around town for an LR41 watch battery.

This is the saddest thing I've seen on /r/webdev in a while. Bro is going to college and instead of learning web development, the professor is having them use Dreamweaver. reddit.com/r/webdev/com...
Dreamweaver?
I’m currently in college for computer programming because I plan on pursuing a career in web development. While I’m not against learning the...

Corvallis High School has a stream that passes through campus. After a basketball game this evening, we saw this nutria just chilling in the grass.

When my neighbors down the block built their house, they got permits for an attached 2-car garage. Only they turned that into a studio apartment instead. So now they're trying to sell, and 1) they don't have a garage and 2) 400+ sqft of living space can't be supported on the appraisal for financing.

Squarespace is on my shit list now. A change of registrar for a domain is already a enough of a challenge. But there's no reason to take a parting shot on the way out and immediately delete old DNS records before the domain has landed in the new account. 0/10 will never recommend

Wow! OK, it looks like I have my answer. That's wild that someone was documenting this that long ago.

OK friends, mystery time! This has been plaguing me for many months. If I swivel my chair to the left and stand up, the HDMI for my middle monitor, which is where my audio connects, cuts out for a few seconds. If I push my chair back and stand up, it's fine. When I sit down it's fine.

Oh look, were going to use LAWS to reform ICE, a lawless agency that specifically does not obey laws, follow court orders, or allow Congressional oversight. Great plan Senator! #lawless
We should not fund DHS without serious reform. We could return CBP to border. We could require warrants for immigration arrests. We could beef up training and require identification.

The list of possible reforms is long. What's unacceptable is the current lawless status quo.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I read about a proposed 300-acre data center in Pekin, Illinois. Those are going to be some really depressed IT workers questioning their life choices.
