If it goes with your pie flavor, dessicated coconut makes an excellent crust.

I want city council to ban tear gas/ pepper spray/chemical weapons in Saint Paul. Surely, we have the votes for it. It's only ever abused. I'd argue there's no justifiable use for it, ever, but even if there were, it's always abused.

I'm SO grateful she had a light. It's highly unlikely I would have seen her in time of she hadn't, because there were cars with lights on in front of and behind her.

It's a(nother) horrifying example of why bike lanes are inadequate. We need and deserve safer options

Every time I'm shown those stupid faces, I just say, "I'm sorry, the Sackler Family pain scale doesn't make sense to me."

Am I capable of forming words? Any movement? Recognizing others are present?

If any of those are true, we're nowhere near the "worst" ... which is a solitary tear? Right. 😮‍💨

*Some* recipes are exact. Many more are forgiving. People baked for thousands of years without scales. My grandmother was a fantastic baker who never owned a scale.

Don't be intimidated and know that EVERYONE has to learn. Your bakes won't be perfect every time.

But "exact" is mostly a myth. 😊

Lol, no. The perils of renting are annual increases, like clockwork.

The treatment that cured my lymphoma was developed when I was a teenager. The treatments that will cure our children’s cancers are being put on hold right now. It's infuriating.

Definitely not. Mine raises it the max allowed every year and whines about how expensive things are for *them,* as though I don't drop off my rent at their Summit Avenue mansion every month. They are truly the persecuted ones.

Pro tip: Do the Miralax prep with coconut water and a spritz (no pulp) of fresh lime. Start drinking at noon the day before, not the later "we're pretending you're going to work today" time they suggest.

That way, you'll be done with the purge in time to actually sleep.

I resent knowing she exists.
