After much discussion at the breakfast table, it was decided that syrup things are basically Yorkshire puds, just thicker and shallow-fried. Because I'm a rebel, Dottie, I don't use syrup, only butter. These are a bit dark bc Dad's out of practice, but just as delicious as I remembered.

This is Barron and his son, Carlos. Carlos just came home from an exhausting first day of puppy school. Barron is really proud of him. 13/10 Happy Father's Day, Barron

books are like eggs: some hatch into lizards : some stink real bad : delicious and rich though commonplace : you can have one every day : infinite preparations can make them into anything : anybody can make one but a practiced hand can make them great :you can throw them at enemies to send a message

“they think ‘balance’ means concealing the partisan nature of violence” godDAMN that hits the nail on the head, doesn’t it?

Dad is making Syrup Things for breakfast for the first time in years. AFAIK, they're uniquely Volga German and they're a sturdy, shallow-fried dumpling made with eggs, flour, milk and a pinch of salt. They're sort of like fry bread crossed with an octopus (in shape) but denser. And they're delicious

Thousands of Christians are being rounded up and deported by the U.S. government, but they’re not cottagecore tradmoms or their homeschooled goat milk enthusiasts, so these guys are fine with it. Actually, they’re thrilled.

Just had a burger… never fancy burgers. But today I did. Well, there was a time as kids we thought burgers were the best thing we’d ever tasted, and a trip to McDonalds or Burger King or Wendy’s the ultimate treat. Eating fast food in memory of the Heavenly Father. Praise the Lard #fathersday #poem

Apparently there's some Catholic thing that was held today at the White Sox stadium and Pope Leo XIV spoke in a video message. Wild. I'm not Catholic, but hearing the guy who was chosen to lead the Catholic Church speaking to me in the language we share is personal in a way I've never felt before.

Funny thing about adding all that fiber...everyone managed to get full on only one piece, so we've got 2 more dinners out of it.👍🏻

The AG historical dolls are no joke. Rebecca Rubin is a 10 year old Russian Jew born in NYC who's immigrant cousin works in a sweatshop in 1914. Melody Ellison is a Black girl in 1964 Detroit. Her uncle & aunt move up North after he was harassed by the police. They don't play.

It does my disabled, heat-intolerant heart good to see all the pictures from the protests. It does my heart REALLY good. Love to you all.

You can’t make it up

Hey, kids! Guess what time it is!

More like the outtamyassma theory

The fun thing about having a 9 year old is that sometimes they will insist that Baja Blast Gerber baby food is real based on a meme they saw

New measles case in Boulder may have exposed passengers on the Flatiron Flyer bus

Melissa Hortman, who was assassinated last night, was the Speaker of the Minnesota House in the 2023-2024 session, when Democrats ran the state government. That means she had a leading role in shepherding the many landmark reforms that Dems adopted in that period—an important legacy. Brief 🧵.

Well past time for big city mayors to call for the arrest of anyone who claims to be law enforcement but wears a mask and/or won’t identify themselves

There is only one side in American politics that consistently supports and endorses political violence. People need to stop being afraid to say so.

Once Dad got home, he helped me clean up Hamish. In thanks, Hamish clawed Dad's arm and made him bleed (thanks, blood thinners!) I made the boys breakfast and put "flavor crystals" (FortiFlora) on it and no one is interested. [sigh]

King Soopers is telling me "Save on weekly essentials" and then showing me lots of pints of ice cream. I mean, okay, King Soopers, you know me and my shopping habits, but I DO feel a little embarrassed...

It's kinda funny (not humorous) because you can always tell when a dog has a dirty butt. They will do everything they can in an attempt that you do not perceive their butt! A while ago, Ozzie had it and would sit and face me or walk around and immediate plant his butt. "NOTHING TO SEE HERE!"

This is basically my view on humanity. This is the energy I shall bring to the party…

Because the twins do everything together, this morning Hamish has a stinky, poopy butt, too. I bet it's because we've been giving them mostly chicken because of Ozzie's teeth. I have cooked carrots, but no one will eat them. And no one wants the kibble mush. I wonder if they would eat chicken rice?

At Comic-Con 2009 I was getting misgendered a fair bit and feeling anxious AF about it. Robert Downey Jr. was doing a press conf for Sherlock Holmes. I wanted to shout out a question but hated drawing attn to myself. I did it anyway. He gestured at me: "the lady in the blue shirt." I was so happy.

As his defamation trial jury deliberates, MyPillowGuy Mike Lindell told me he's OK with his defense team's decision not to put on evidence of election rigging. He dismissed criticism that his claims hinder productive debate about election security. And he said I'm a traitor.

I've spent the last few months examining the +1,450 grants terminated at the NIH, including reading hundreds of abstracts. Many were studying how to solve or improve health disparities – not just identify or explain them. Some of the terminated grants (h/t to @scott-delaney.bsky.social + team)

Having grown up in a tiny town in SE Colorado, I don't have many. Roy Romer came to my HS for Knowledge Bowl. I met Dick Lamm at the hotel I worked at in the early 90s. And then I impressed Jared Polis with my mad trivia skills and brought him a cupcake.

Jock and Hamish are on the back of the couch, which is covered by an old towel. Jock wanted to come over on the bit next to me that is NOT covered by towel. Oh no, little sir, your stinky, poopy butt is NOT going to be near my head!

TF does this? I like bunnies. www.denver7.com/news/crime/d...
