I didn’t see anything egregious, but I assume that while the general public (a jury) are ok with tattoos these days, there’s still a specific image in their mind of what kind of person has this much coverage.

I have nothing to back that up.

Halfway through there’s a drunk woman and her reluctant husband/boyfriend/male friend/drafted stranger who sings “Picture” by Kid Rock and Sheryl Crow.

The Dodge ram is red and I know the guy who drives it and keeps getting DUIs. I’ve offered to share my Uber with him just so he’s not putting people in danger but he just yells “Yee haw, brother”, fixes his greasy mullet, and hops in.

I miss Batboy and Elvis being spotted in their convertible UFO.

Got a new V

Try it with me

Let’s give it a whirl

They lived in a one bedroom cottage and kept Jack Russell terriers and were buried next to each other.

Otherwise it was an older billionaire that took in the younger when he was in college and they donned masks and fought crime together.

I know. However, you said something that made my train of thought pull into a particular station. So you got a useless story because that’s what I do.

And I agree with everything you said.

So the original 'chili Queens" who brought chili con carne to Texas sometimes added beans. It was often used as a topping for tamales. If you go back further, pretty much as far as you can go on this particular subject, the Aztecs, Incas, and Mayans all had precursor dishes that were meat, peppers, spices, and beans. Delicious proto chili!

Beans have been a part of chili since the beginning. You can’t add them for a lot of competitions, but that doesn’t make the off-competition stuff any less authentic. Central Texas gets weird about it, but they get weird about a lot of shit. They’re the ones who took the recipe from tejanas and removed the beans in the first place.

That being said, I prefer a chili with no beans. You can skip the rest of this comment because it’s just a guy who is now reminiscing about chili past and thinking of chili future.

I will take a bunch of peppers I’ve grown (usually super hot, but I have some guajillos and jalapenos in the mix this year) and smoke them, yellow onion, garlic, beer, cayenne, masa harina, strong coffee, a collection of spices to make my own chili powder (not a secret, I just don’t have my recipe card in front of me…it heavily features smoked paprika and cumin), a little homemade adobo sauce, homemade bacon, and whatever leftover beef I have (usually brisket, sometimes chuck, and around the holidays rib roast) cut into little cubes and cooked up. I don’t think I’ve made chili with beef that wasn’t leftovers for a couple of decades.

It takes probably half an hour of work, then half a day of simmering stirring very occasionally, then mix in the masa harina 15 or 20 minutes before you’re ready to serve.

Yes. Fixed. Fingers moved faster than my brain.

Thanks for the heads up!

It has decreased my dating pool by exactly 1. My ex started doing porn and I decided I couldn’t go back.

Best thing to ever happen to me. No drunk texts and no forgetting why we split up.

No hate on people who date others in porn. It’s just not for me.

It’s funny, the guy below you at the time of my reply is basically saying that without the /s.

By the way, nice to see you again!

Can they do that to the crime that has affected the greatest number of people and caused the greatest amount of lost money? Because that’s wage theft and it’s probably the only way I’d be cool with it.

He no longer has it, or at least couldn’t find it. The search continues.

No word yet.

Imagine one of those in a hidden dimension just sticking one of those tentacles in where we can see in a human skin suit.

In that case, yeah. Pretty much.

Bill’s whole show is just people running around in huge puppet heads chanting that interspersed with Three Little Pigs.

I highly recommend it. Even I had a hard time being drunk while sweating everything out due to the heavy cardio.

I hate to say it, but Amazon Handmade is the only one stop shop I’ve found that can compete so far. I’m hoping that changes soon.

Depending on what you want there are specific marketplaces dealing in it. Aftcra tried to do American handcrafted stuff but they closed down recently. Most of the places are just T-shirt or other textile printing on demand or they give you the tools to make your own storefront without the cohesive “search everything we’ve got” format of Etsy.

That’s what I’ve found, which means I could be way the fuck off base because I’m just a drunk and I’m not passionate about handmade goods unless I happen to run across them locally.

He saw the operation you tried to pull today

But your humiliation means he still votes “Neigh!”

And now assassination is just the only way

There will be blood, it might be yours

So, go kill someone!

Several years ago my friend sent me a photo of a local Brake Check location down the street from his house at night with some of the letters burned out so that it said Bra Check. This post prompted me to ask him if he still had it so that I can make my first Lemmy post.

I’m not a sports guy but I can agree with this. I’m active (rock climbing and part time work on a ranch) but I don’t personally enjoy doing or watching sports. No hate, it’s just not for me.

That being said, I’m totally with you on the community aspect. I will go watch pretty much any sports live and I get way into it. It’s less about the game and more about the people around you. I like going and watching both the Astros and the Texans play occasionally and I know nothing about the players or the standings of either.

I’m really sad we don’t have a hockey team. I don’t care about hockey but my intensity in the stands works really well with hockey.
