How the fuck do you know if it is literal or not? Every single thing attached to Epstein is disgusting and depraved; an old dude giving another old dude a BJ is the least insane story to come out of this.

Why are you even trying to wave this away? Joke or not Donald had close ties with Epstein until the very end, that should be the bigger story because he has clearly been lying his ass off again. I honestly couldn’t give two shits if the orange fuck has had a dick in his mouth, but it would be absolutely hilarious if true. Plus, if people joke about this enough he’s going to address it publicly which would be so fucking funny to watch.

okay… and? This still makes it look a whole lot like trump and his buddies were very well intertwined with a convicted sex trafficker long after his depravity was revealed. It’s a lot less funny if trump didn’t blow clinton but that would be the least disgusting thing he did on the island.

Obviously fuck Israel but I have a bit of a different gripe with this thing.

I got into 3d printing to reduce waste, mainly to repair old stuff but plastic waste is still something I try and reduce as much as possible. This toolhead is a plastic wasting machine, not a printing one. I cannot for the life of me justify buying not one but two long thin tubes of liquid only to split the tube in half and only use the goo inside. And then they have the audacity to charge fucking $1100 for it. The XL is already overpriced for it’s performance, this is just adding insult to injury.

Bromton bikes costs around $1.5k minimum, some can go for over $6k. That bike costs more than my custom road bike, and he could absolutely afford a taxi or a used car if he wanted.

Not defending the CCP, but this title just makes no fucking sense. Like is ‘small millionaire’ supposed to make him sound poor? He still has more money than 99% of the population, am I supposed to feel bad he no longer has more money than 99.999%?

Lazy straining can make your pasta taste way better, it just takes a little extra time.

First; undercook your pasta, you’ll want it barely soft on the outside and still kinda crunchy otherwise it will overcook into mush. Second; drain your pasta but leave about 2/3 cup of water in the bottom of the pot. Third; add a generous amount of butter to the water and pasta and place back in the stove at medium-high heat. Also a good time to add salt/pepper/seasoning. Fourth; stir until water boils off completely. This is going to create a butter sauce as the starch in the pasta water combines with the melted butter. It will stick much better to the pasta and doesn’t leave your pot all greasy from the butter.

It makes the best goddamn buttered noodles but also works well for any jarred/pre-prepped sauce, just add it in the mix towards the end so you still only have one pot to clean.

I haven’t been to my local IMAX theater in nearly a decade because the sound system went to absolute shit and they still haven’t updated it.

Even before I went down the audio rabbit hole I felt it was a huge upgrade just having a cheap pair of bookshelf speakers and decent looking TV. Now with OLED becoming ubiquitous it’s too easy to make an amazing setup that doesn’t break the bank. Theaters need to do some drastic changes to bring back their value, but honestly it might just be better leaving them in the history books.

Hot take: if you add way more garlic than the recipe calls for then you aren’t chopping it finely enough.

I used to triple the amount of garlic until I started to make fresh garlic paste instead of just dicing the clove. The difference it makes cannot be understated and it allows other flavors in the dish to shine side-by-side with the garlic instead of having spontaneous garlic bursts.

Actually I’m in California, but I’ll take that as a compliment!

Our funnel web spiders are pretty mild but it could have also been a brown recluse or wolf spider. Not super deadly but not a fun bite by any means.

Thank you, it was more of a happy accident but I’m very happy this worked out.

I’m not sure of the spices, but it might be a funnel web spider’s burrow? I didn’t stick around long enough to see the spider, I just assume it’s quite venomous and treaded carefully.
