Grandma Mitchell would make her ultra flakey biscuits with sour cream as her “secret” ingredient. She would bake a dozen of them and I’d eat half of them, split them open and just let the melted butter and Welch’s grape jelly seep into them.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 stick butter or margarine softened or 1/2 cup or 8 tablespoons
1 1/2 cups sour cream
Instructions
Whisk together flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder in a large bowl. Cut in butter until like coarse crumbs. Add sour cream and mix with a spoon until holds together.
Roll out on a floured surface and cut out with biscuit cutter. Place on sprayed baking sheet. Bake in preheated 425 degree oven 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown on top. Makes about 18 biscuits.
And they looked like this!

Mister Charlie Lindbergh, he flew to old Berlin

To Washington, Washington
Misses Charlie Lindbergh, she come dressed in red
Said: “I’d like to sleep in that pretty White House bed

Lindy said to Annie: “We’ll get there by and by
But we’ll have to split the bed up with Wheeler, Clark, and Nye
In Washington, Washington”
Hitler wrote to Lindy, said “Do your very worst”
Lindy started an outfit that he called America First
In Washington, Washington
All around the country, Lindbergh, he did fly
Gasoline was paid for by Hoover, Clark, and Nye
In Washington, Washington
Lindy said to Hoover: “We’ll do the same as France
Make a deal with Hitler, and then we’ll get our chance
In Washington, Washington”
Then they had a meetin’, and all the Firsters com
Come on a-walkin’, they come on a-runnin’
In Washington, Washington
Yonder comes Father Coughlin, wearin’ the silver chain
Cash on his stomach and Hitler on the brain
In Washington, Washington
Mister John L. Lewis would sit and straddle a fence
His daughter signed with Lindbergh, and we ain’t seen her since
In Washington, Washington
Hitler said to Lindy: “Stall ‘em all you can
Gonna bomb Pearl Harbor with the help of old Japan”
In Washington, Washington
Then on a December mornin’, the bombs come from Japan
Wake Island and Pearl Harbor, kill fifteen hundred men
In Washington, Washington
Now Lindy tried to join the army, but they wouldn’t let ‘im in
‘Fraid he’d sell to Hitler a few more million men
In Washington, Washington
So I’m a gonna tell you people: If Hitler’s gonna be beat
The common workin’ people has got to take the seat
In Washington, Washington
And I’m gonna tell you workers, ‘fore you cash in your checks
They say “America First, ” but they mean “America Next!”

Twas the night before Thanksgiving.
And a furniture company in Mississippi FIRED 2,700 employees via an e-mail.
And that e-mail informed the employees terminated their health care benefits.
United Furniture Industries Fired Thousands via Text, Email as They Slept
United Furniture Industries sacked nearly its entire workforce in the state, as well as employees in North Carolina and California, and in a heartless parting blow, discontinued the employees’ health care benefits, according to reports. After the mass layoffs, one company driver was arrested for allegedly stealing furniture and a truck.
Now the firm is facing at least three federal lawsuits in the Northern District of Mississippi. Toria Neal, who has worked for the company since July 2014, filed a class-action suit this week alleging United fired all employees except for “over-the-road drivers” just before midnight on Nov. 21 in violation of federal law. She argues United didn’t give workers a required 60-day advance written notice. (Two other employees, Frances Alomari and Willie Poe, filed lawsuits making the same allegations against the company.)
The abrupt firings were a punch to the gut for longtime employees of United Furniture, which operates under the Lane Furniture brand.
re: #1 Anymouse 🌹🏡😷
What I love about Quebec French is how many of its swear words are derived from religious (mostly Catholic) terms. To wit:
baptême [ˌbaˈtaɪ̯m]: “baptism”
câlice [ˈkɑːˌlɪs] (calice): “chalice”
ciboire [ˌsiˈbwɑːʁ]: “ciborium” or “pyx”, receptacles in which the host is stored
criss [ˈkʁɪs] (Christ): “Christ”, or crisser, a more emphatic version of sacrer, both verbs meaning “to curse”
esti [ˌəsˈt͡si] or ostie [ˌɔ.sˈt͡si] (hostie): “host”
maudit [ˈmoːˌd͡zi] (m) or maudite [ˈmoːˌd͡zit] (f): “damned” (or “damn”)
sacrament [ˌsa.kʁaˈmɑ̃ˑ] (sacrement): “Sacrament”
saint [sɛ̃]: “Saint”, added before others (ex. saint-simonaque, saint-sacrament, etc.)
simonaque [ˌsimɔˈnak] (simoniaque): from the sin of simony
tabarnak [ˌtabaʁnak] (tabernacle): “tabernacle”; typically considered the most profane of the sacres
viarge [vjaʁʒ] (vierge): “the Virgin Mary”
I’d be curious to find out if the use of these words has diminished or increased over the last 60 years or so (that is, since the Quiet Revolution, which effectively helped to secularize Quebec). I’m sure someone has studied it. But if you look at that list of words. French Quebec is rich in profanity.

Yesterday was Record Store Day, so today I went to my local record store and picked up a fresh reissue of “Clear Spot” by Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band and “Season of da Siccness” by Brotha Lynch Hung on vinyl. Respectively only 4000 and 1000 pressings of those titles were made for this RSD.
The Beefheart album is fucking glorious. The Lynch Hung album is just as I remember it, off-the-wall shocking and darkly funny.

How committed are Republicans in promoting health?
Thomas Massie wants everyone to drink…RAW MILK…
The Interstate Milk Freedom Act is expected to receive a new push once Republicans regain control of Congress in January.
Sponsored by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), the bill “prohibits federal regulation of the interstate traffic of unpasteurized milk or milk products packaged for direct human consumption under specified circumstances.”
Massie has been pushing the issue on Twitter.
“I’ve been drinking raw milk almost every day for the past year. I can say it’s been great for my health!” Massie tweeted on Wednesday.
Massie wants you to forget about the time West Virginia legislators passed that bill, celebrated by drinking raw milk…and got very, very sick from it…

Putin was repeatedly snubbed at an international summit of countries meant to be Russia’s friends
Russia’s president was snubbed three times by his supposed ally on Thursday when he met with some of his country’s closest partners at an international summit.
But the supposedly friendly forum proved hard going for Putin, who was slighted multiple times by the prime minister of Armenia in protest at its ongoing conflict with Azerbaijan.
Nikol Pashinyan used his speech at the start of the summit — held in Yerevan, Armenia’s capital — to criticize the effectiveness of the alliance, where Russia is by far the most powerful member.

Make Tuberculosis Great Again.
I was hoping to hear someone say that. My dad, who milked cows growing up (his brother milked cows too, and his sister ran the separator), told us very seriously that failing to pasteurize milk could lead to tuberculosis if the milk was taken from a diseased cow. (I may have heard this from him around the time I experienced a tuberculosis scare when I tested positive on a TB tine test.)
I absolutely, completely, and utterly cannot get over these people who are trying to remove all the good things the modern world brought us, like vaccines and pasteurization. *headdesk*

BDS is the only anti-Semitism rightwingers will call out.
After replacing the nuclear war head with a warhead simulator, the Russians have fired former tactical nuclear missiles at Ukraine recently. As noted by another lgf poster, one possibility is that the Russians are running out of missiles.
Another possibility, discussed in the article below is that the Russians are trying to get the Ukrainians to expend expensive and limited supply anti-missile missiles shooting at the cheap and obsolete Russian decoys.
Additionally, each anti-missile battery has a finite number of anti-missile missiles available. And it’s command and control systems can only track a finite number of incoming missiles.
Is Russia Now Firing Denuclearized Cruise Missiles At Ukraine?
Repurposing old nuclear cruise missiles as decoys to overwhelm Ukrainian air defenses could make sense.
*snip*
Provided the Defense Express account (defence-ua.com) is correct, it may well be the case that Russia has decided it makes sense to lose older Kh-55s from its inventory and instead use them (sans warhead) as a means to disrupt Ukrainian air defenses. That would make particular sense if those same Kh-55s were reaching the end of their shelf lives. Better to use them unarmed to spoof hostile air defense systems or attempt to hit a target, albeit with limited damage, than simply scrap them.
*snip*
As to suggestions from some observers that the use of denuclearized Kh-55s is intended as some kind of signal to the West about Russia’s potential to use nuclear weapons in the conflict, this seems entirely fanciful. After all, the Kh-101 and Kh-22 that have already been widely launched by Russian bombers are also both available with nuclear warheads. The West is fully familiar with the capabilities (and limitations) of the Russian nuclear arsenal.

My Québécois foster mom never used “tabarnak!” that I knew of.
She did tell me that “m’osti” was VERY bad, and never to speak it. (“M’osti” = “host of/for me”)
I’ve since learned the language, but have never used that phrase, nor “tabarnak”. The latter word is very common on commercial joke signs and license plate frames, according to my Québec French teacher on FB.

“All nine Democrats and eight of the 11 Republicans elected to the Alaska Senate are forming a bipartisan majority coalition, they said Friday, just two days after the deadline for Alaska election officials to receive ballots and before the election results have been certified,” the Anchorage Daily News reports.
“The coalition will bring together 17 senators, leaving three right-wing Republicans in the minority.”

Severe weather, tornado, and thunderstorms strike St. Charles parish (WWL-TV, New Orleans)
NEW ORLEANS — Part of Highway 90 in St. Charles Parish is closed and there are almost 4,500 buildings without power in St. Charles and Jefferson Parishes, primarily in the Kenner area after severe weather passed through Saturday afternoon.
There was a report of a tornado that touched down in St. Charles Parish that could have moved toward the Kenner area.
Winds gusted up to 60 miles per hour during the severe weather, which then headed toward the northshore of Lake Pontchartrain as of 10 p.m.
St. Charles Parish President Matthew Jewell told reporters during a press conference about a multitude of power outages across the parish, and that it may be several hours until power is restored in those areas.
A spokesperson for St. Charles Parish told WWL-TV that Entergy plans to get power back up for affected areas by midnight. As of 8:30 p.m, roughly 289 customers are affected.
Jewell also said there are no reported injuries at the moment. The Parish also said that most of the damage is minor, but advised motorists and the public to avoid downed power lines.

Schematically about the Elmoite misuse of the free speech rhetoric.
First of all, they mix up different concepts of free speech. One could talk about FP in the sense of the 1st Amdt. (in the US context), where the state is restrained from limiting FP as much as possible. This allows for most of hate speech, for example. So a private forum is not limiting FP when it bans certain forms of speech, because it’s not the state that is doing this.
The concept of FP can also be fruitfully used outside the constitutional discussions. E.g. when discussing moderating practices on a private forum, one can meaningfully distinguish between more FP or less FP due to the particular moderation practices; one could also talk about censorship (not in the constitutional sense). In this context one can be a “champion of FP” (or some such) or “against censorship” in a relative local sense, even if we are not talking about the state.
Both definitions are OK when their usage is restricted to proper contexts, defined before the discussion and clear to all sides.
When Elmo claims to be a champion of free speech, he could (in principle at least; we are not talking about the current practices) be justified in using the second definition, but not the first one. Because Twitter, being a private company, did not infringe on the 1st Amdt. when it “censored” certain behaviors. And Elmo no longer “censoring” them could be seen as promotion of FP *only* in the second sense.
So far so good; but, as they play around their motte, and are then asked to curb hate speech, the Elmoites run back to the bailey of the first definition: ah, we can’t, the 1st Amdt. doesn’t prohibit hate speech, u no. And herein lies their deception. No, dudes. The 1st Amdt. never applied to your claims - you can claim to be for “more free speech” only in the second, local-relative private-forum sense, which means that you cannot rely on the 1st Amdt. not prohibiting hate speech for your own choice of allowing hate speech. Own it.
re: #131 Nyet
To add to this: usually, the term “free speech” has a positive connotation, but it acquired it from the first definition. The users of the second definition usually piggyback on this fact, even though “more free speech” in the second context has many more negative effects associated with it (after all, if you ban trolls, spam, bots from a forum, you are limiting FP in the 2nd sense - and it’s a good thing). So being a FP champion in the second sense is much more often a huge “meh” than being such in the first sense (which is also not without its problems, but is much more clearcut).

So there’s this Youtube genre that popped up a few years back - reaction videos.
Now there are thousands upon thousands of “reaction” channels, for music, TV, and film.
Lately I’ve been listening to some reaction channels which do “oldies” - usually 1960’s pop.
One thing I’ve noticed is that there are many black reactors, Americans, who are fond of some of the older rock.
Anyway, what surprised me is how many of them also do reactions, positive reactions, to Jordan Peterson, Shapiro, etc.
So I ask myself - why? What could the likes of quack Jordan or bloviating Ben have that attracts these black Americans?
I’ve not come to a conclusion, but the one thing that stands out to me is that reactors (this is not just limited to these black American reactors to old music) rarely, if ever, critically evaluate the music.
What these reaction channels are is just more of the nostalgia business.
Which is why Elvis, Righteous Brothers, etc. are popular with them.
These reactors have learned that they can get 10k to 100k views by reacting to old songs that old folks seek out.
So this gets me back to this affection the black reactors are having for Pederson, Shapiro, Sowell, etc.
Is it them playing to the nostalgia crowd? Or is there really a deeper affection going on here?
As I noted earlier, it is rare to find a reactor who takes apart that which they are watching/hearing. And certainly none of the reactors to Sowell, Shapiro, etc. are critically analyzing the statements of the talking heads.
Also, I fear our society has really painted itself in a corner. All of us coastal elites, with our graduate degrees, and all of our trappings - we really don’t speak to many of the black Americans we presume will realize that the atavistic talking heads are just carney barkers for a dark and insidious culture of backwardness.
I think I know why - it’s because of religion.
We have yet to fully reckon with the problems that will come if us atheist/agnostic/materialists start to pick apart what has traditionally been called the “black church” in America.
And this is the conundrum for the Democratic party, if the Democratic party continues its very slow inching towards hard-core secularism.

Reading about Indian fascists, and Steve Bannon pops up:
“…Bannon does use the peculiar phrase “man in time” to refer to the former political horse he rode, Donald Trump. That phrase arises from the writing of Savitri Devi, a literal Hitler worshipper, who meant by it a figure who rushed along inexorable cyclical time by being a force of destruction (as Bannon saw Trump’s role vis-a-vis the American administrative state). But Bannon doesn’t seem to be aware where the phrase comes from. He admits to having heard the name Savitri Devi but professes to not know much about her and acts like a student to Teitelbaum’s teacher regarding her ideas.”

Donald Trump’s lackluster campaign announcement was one thing.

A vile racist on Twitter posted this — but I don’t see where Elon is personally supportive of this particular venture. Nothing in the post violated any Twitter rules, even pre-Musk.
He appears to have deleted the retweet, which is where I found it.

Liberals said @ElonMusk buying Twitter would be the end of democracy.
Funny then that he’s made almost every major decision by a public poll.

re: #136 Love-Child of Cassandra and Sisyphus
So there’s this Youtube genre that popped up a few years back - reaction videos.
Now there are thousands upon thousands of “reaction” channels, for music, TV, and film.
Lately I’ve been listening to some reaction channels which do “oldies” - usually 1960’s pop.
One thing I’ve noticed is that there are many black reactors, Americans, who are fond of some of the older rock.
Anyway, what surprised me is how many of them also do reactions, positive reactions, to Jordan Peterson, Shapiro, etc.
So I ask myself - why? What could the likes of quack Jordan or bloviating Ben have that attracts these black Americans?
I’ve not come to a conclusion, but the one thing that stands out to me is that reactors (this is not just limited to these black American reactors to old music) rarely, if ever, critically evaluate the music.
What these reaction channels are is just more of the nostalgia business.
Which is why Elvis, Righteous Brothers, etc. are popular with them.
These reactors have learned that they can get 10k to 100k views by reacting to old songs that old folks seek out.
So this gets me back to this affection the black reactors are having for Pederson, Shapiro, Sowell, etc.
Is it them playing to the nostalgia crowd? Or is there really a deeper affection going on here?
As I noted earlier, it is rare to find a reactor who takes apart that which they are watching/hearing. And certainly none of the reactors to Sowell, Shapiro, etc. are critically analyzing the statements of the talking heads.
Also, I fear our society has really painted itself in a corner. All of us coastal elites, with our graduate degrees, and all of our trappings - we really don’t speak to many of the black Americans we presume will realize that the atavistic talking heads are just carney barkers for a dark and insidious culture of backwardness.
I think I know why - it’s because of religion.
We have yet to fully reckon with the problems that will come if us atheist/agnostic/materialists start to pick apart what has traditionally been called the “black church” in America.
And this is the conundrum for the Democratic party, if the Democratic party continues its very slow inching towards hard-core secularism.
What is hard-core secularism? REALLY wanting separation of Church and State?
There are lots of African-American atheists. Democrats don’t shun them for being Evangelical Protestants.
There are few African-American Republicans. The GOP shuns them despite being Evangelicals.
Ben is a quite the rhetorician and really knows how to walk away leaving the impression that he has won the argument.

Grandma Bacon’s 5 Chip Cookie recipe—imagine Toll House cookies with Semi-Sweet, Milk Chocolate, White Chocolate, Peanut Butter and Butterscotch chips.
Ingredients:
1 - cup butter, softened
1 - cup peanut butter—Grandma said it had to be Skippy smooth peanut butter.
1 - cup sugar
2/3 - cup packed brown sugar
2 - eggs
1 - teaspoon vanilla extract
2 - cups all-purpose flour
1 - cup old-fashioned oats
2 - teaspoons baking soda
1/2 - teaspoon salt
2/3 - cup each milk chocolate chips, semisweet chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, white chocolate and butterscotch chips
Directions:
In a large bowl, cream the butter, peanut butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in vanilla.
Combine the flour, oats, baking soda and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well. Stir in chips.
Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
Bake at 350° for 9- 10 minutes or until lightly browned.
Cool for 1 minute before removing to wire racks. Makes around 4 dozen which will not last long when folks smell them…
Note—sometimes Grandma added chopped mixed nuts and/or raisins to the recipe as well.

With family who include vegans, gluten-free vegetarians, lactose-intolerance, and strictly kosher, my sister (the baker in the family) is always facing difficulties in preparing desserts — she has to do a lot of adjustments to make a pareve cookie/cake that can meet everyone’s demands. Many great recipes never see the light of day in her kitchen. Sometimes there isn’t a great substitution that will produce a final product that perfectly matches the original in taste, let alone texture.

There are vegan substitutes for butter, sour cream, cream cheese and eggs. When I bake, I generally avoid using dairy products unless it is something like cheesecake.
