Probably “It’s Alright Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)”

I’m partial to the New Orleans cocktails. If I’m making a Sazerac, I like this variation.

On the whole, though, my favorite has to be the Vieux Carré

• 3/4 oz rye
• 3/4 oz cognac
• 3/4 oz sweet vermouth
• 1/3 oz Bénédictine D.O.M
• 2 dashes Peychaud’s bitters
• 1 dash Angostura bitters
• Optional absinthe rinse (I usually keep some absinthe in an atomizer because I refuse to throw out perfectly good absinthe)

Serve in a rocks glass with a lemon twist

At the same time, though, my love for bitter sometimes draws me to a Bonsoni:

• 2 oz Carpano Antica vermouth
• 1/2 oz Fernet Branca

I should probably clarify that it slammed me firmly in the Bernie camp, but I’ve drifted even further to the left (broadly libertarian/anarcho-socialism) since then

Up until that point, I was a naive centrist that thought sane liberalism would win out. That election single-handedly destroyed that view and slammed me hard to the left.

And more horrifyingly: polling might not mean much this far out, but right now, the CPC is leading. Big. Skippy is terrifying, and terrifyingly close to power.

And you plan to do what different, exactly?

Reminder to anyone who wants to claim Giolito; you are required by the CBA to also claim Reynaldo Lopez. Anywhere one goes, the other must follow.

What’s Mizzou’s bowl game ban looking like?

Reading this, part of me wishes his wife wasn’t barred from doing anything during the trial. Another part of me knows she’d probably be on some “stand by your man” bullshit because it’s politically expedient.

One of the worst parts is that there are many valid reasons to criticize Bill Gates with regards to the COVID vaccine (mainly as it pertains to his intellectual property crusade leading to a few companies getting to dictate the rollout and screwing over the Global South in the process), but it’s all drowned out by these idiots screaming about microchips.

It also doesn’t help that Appalachia has basically been reduced to an internal resource colony. Never mind the people who actually live there, its only purpose has been extraction, and everything was built around that. Yes it’s brutal, but it paid well. When that dries up it’s basically an existential threat. It’s not just a case of being set in their ways.

To me, there’s little difference between the desire in Appalachia to bring back coal and the desire to bring back factories from overseas.

Some of the smaller racing subs, especially IndyCar and MotoGP

You know who else could benefit from listening to Behind the Bastards.

The products and services that support this comment.

Actually, nevermind, that would be too good of an ad transition.

I wouldn’t go that far. At this point, demographics, political inertia, and Manchin’s growing local unpopularity basically mean WV is a lost cause barring some miracle

That poor guy’s getting punished by not receiving the full $6 billion from the sale.

Fuck off, Dan.

As far as I’m aware, neither of the striking unions have called for a consumer boycott.

Also really don’t want to get lectured on race relations when this is how they celebrate Christmas

This is the “progressive savior” Dore fans are touting

Can’t wait to see how they fuck this up just to make sure progessives get fucked harder.

Front right pocket for phone, front left pocket for keys, back right pocket for wallet if in uncrowded area, front left.

If it’s crowded in winter, it all changes. I have a Columbia jacket with zipper pockets on the side and one chest pocket. Phone and keys stay on their corresponding sides (or even still in the pants because the jacket covers my pockets and who wants to steal a six year old cracked LG?), while wallet goes into the chest pocket.
