Still a little tough & gamey so I’d recommend using a slow-cooker to braise for 8 hours in a dry red wine-based sauce for a fall-off-the-bone stew

Could be. Maybe in a few years it will be seen as cheap. Who knows.
Or maybe the buyer is just a big fan of The Boys and wants to pretend to hunt supes

Reply to comment by werdnak84 in Trump protest fizzles out: "More reporters here than Trump supporters" by thepobv
What?
Trump got the date wrong because he doesn’t know when the indictment will drop. No one does except Bragg’s office, unless it leaks.
And an indictment isn’t really a “verdict,” it’s an indictment.
Trump isn’t playing 5D chess he’s just kind of an idiot

Reply to comment by [deleted] in Ban Corporal Punishment in Private Schools, New York Lawmakers Say by _Maxolotl
I mean religious schools shouldn’t be banned, and that’d be super unconstitutional anyway.
But religious schools shouldn’t receive a cent of taxpayer money, whether they’re teaching the kids Judaism or Islam or that Jesus rode a dinosaur or whatever.

Reply to comment by callipygiancultist in Anti-war partisans in Belarus claim to have damaged Russian plane | Belarus by Caratteraccio
Not just protests. The Belarus Army is far worse equipped and less experienced than the Russian army was at the start of the war.
The better equipped and more loyal / trustworthy troops are what keeps Luka in power. Can’t afford to lose them.
The less well-equipped troops are of dubious loyalty and motivation and might even defect. Can’t afford to risk that happening.
What they can do is periodically move troops around and make blustery noises and force Ukraine to keep some troops in the North just in case. That’s basically free. So they keep doing that.

Reply to comment by LunchMasterFlex in Controversy over neighborhood hubs for food delivery workers in Manhattan by Shreddersaurusrex
My hot take: just ban the delivery apps. Things were fine when you had to pick up the phone and call a place that’s actually in your neighborhood.
Since that’s never gonna happen, at least ban the gross gamification algorithms that force the delivery guys to ride like daredevils or risk being demoted and kicked from being able to work.

Reply to comment by George4Mayor86 in MULTIPLE PEDESTRIANS STRUCK BY U-HAUL TRUCK IN BAY RIDGE, BROOKLYN by Darth_Monkey
Come on, no sane person would read this headline and reach this conclusion.
Describing the vehicles involved in a collision is standard because you generally don’t know the identity of the driver(s) immediately and saying the “driver of a red SUV struck the driver of a blue Mazda” is slightly wordier. It’s not some conspiracy.
Honestly, quibbling about headline word choice when a bunch of people are injured and possibly fighting for their lives is just super gross

Reply to comment by Die-Nacht in Federal court upholds NY rent stabilization laws, setting up possible Supreme Court showdown by ER301
True, but this is less of a hot button issue on Fox News, where the rightwing grievances are developed before eventually becoming SCOTUS law.
Like we’re not talking about domestic violence abusers being denied guns or tech companies banning hate speech on their privately owned platforms, so I don’t think this will really get Alito’s juices flowing. We’ll see though.

Reply to comment by Speedyx in New York Pays $121 Million for Police Misconduct, the Most in 5 Years by hau5keeping
Yeah you could easily view this as good, actually—evidence that wrongful convictions from decades ago are being reviewed, overturned, and the victims compensated (too little, too late perhaps, but better than the alternative).
It certainly isn’t evidence that cops today are more violent or abusive than they were last year.
But that would require reading more than just the headline, I guess.

Yeah… a year is about a reasonable estimate for a somewhat complex investigation into his finances. If the stars align we could be looking at a perp walk on corruption/financial crimes at just about the time the 2024 cycle is heating up.
Hence the local GOP wanting him out ASAP.
