I have tried a fair amount of liquors but have never run into this one. Sounds interesting though.

No, Orzo Isn’t Rice. So What Is It Exactly?
More food news from my too-big tab collection. This one is about orzo. Coincidentally, Trader Joe’s makes a rice and orzo mix that’s a pretty good side if you want to lean into testing it.
Who’s the Socialist Now?
Pointing out conservative hypocrisy is about all the fun we are allowed these days.
It doesn’t help solve any of our problems – and facts do not work on MAGAts – but it is good to throw some reality out there.
Things like racism is the GOP platform, Reagan destroyed society, no Republican president has improved the economy is decades, if ever, and that fascism is their current economic model.
Federal agents detain crews, arrest firefighters battling Wash. wildfire
ICE raided some fire crews in Oregon – who were actively fighting fires – and detained what it appears are two members of the Umatilla nation. You know, folks who BELONG there instead of the Noem thugs trying to deport them *where* exactly?
Why does the Maga elite love conspicuous cosmetic surgery?
There are few things more bizarre than the physical transformation of MAGAts into filler-filled fuckfaces that you see all the time now.

We Cooked Corn on the Cob 8 Different Ways and Found the Method We’ll Do Forever
Good to know I have been doing this right all along:
So, What’s The Best Way to Cook Corn?
After testing all of these methods for cooking corn on the cob, grilling them in their husks was the clear winner. The husks helped steam the corn, keeping it moist and preventing it from drying out. Also, the husks charred, giving the corn all the bold, smoky flavor of grilling without the drying or burned bits.
If you don’t have a grill, boiling corn in salted water is a great alternative. You won’t get that charred flavor, but the kernels will be plump, juicy, and perfectly salted.
ICE Watch Programs Can Protect Immigrants in Your Neighborhood — Here’s What to Know
Teen Vogue continues to provide the tools to fight through this fascist nightmare. Surprising? Sure, but I appreciate the effort and will they give to do it.
I researched every attempt to stop fascism in history. The success rate is 0%.
Historically there is no peaceful path out of this mess.
And *if* we get through this, can we PLEASE punish the evildoers like we never have in this country? Not the Civil War, or the Depression, or Jim Crow, or Watergate, Iran-Contra, the Iraq War. No one ever gets their due. And the nation continues to suffer more and more.
The WIRED Guide to Protecting Yourself From Government Surveillance
It is starting to get a bit constricting in this country. Masked kidnappers, occupying military forces, billionaire pedophiles and literal blood suckers in charge of the levers of power and your data. No shit, that’s all for real.
Maybe tighten up your digital defenses if it isn’t already too late.
