  1. It's the PSU "catch" out of bounds and nothing else is even close.
  2. Social Security (or anything federally funded) is a totally different animal because the feds can always pay. And the federal government has many options including paying back over generations, not being tied to any industry or sector, not being tied to the stock or bond markets, alternative revenue streams like tariffs, fines, transaction fees, etc.
  3. Welcome to a real leader. You can disagree with her politics, policies, or methods, but she's changing the conversation without having the power of the President, Speaker, or committee head.
  4. Come on, teach, you're being deliberately obtuse because you don't want to admit that symbols have meaning. Wearing a MAGA hat is a political symbol.
  5. But if you wear that out in public, then people will assume that you're a Tampa Bay fan - and you'd be foolish to think they shouldn't assume that.
  6. You won't make it far with the amber alert system being so effective. Not worth it, man.
  7. The bolded made me laugh. In 12 years of Catholic school, not one time did any teacher or priest ever take a loving attitude towards the pregnant women.
  8. And you might want to check on which of those groups has marched in rallies and murdered people just since Trump took office as context matters.
  9. Except it's "Make America Great Again". That "again" makes a significant difference in the tone of that motto when it comes to racism and civil rights.
  10. FYI, you can also freeze the Kings rolls and reheat them in about 8 seconds in a microwave. Also it's easier to slice them in half while they're still frozen. Yes, the oven method produces a big, thin meat loaf that you then cut into whatever size you want.
  11. I haven't tried it with frozen sliders, but if you want medium-rare burgers (around 135 F) that are just as food safe as the higher temps, you can sous vide the burgers for an hour at your desired temp (must be >130 F though). You can then freeze them without opening the bag (vacuum sealed bags would be better for this method).
  12. If you're making burgers to eat right away, the grill will always taste better IMO, but I like the oven and frying pan about the same even though they taste a bit different. But after freezing and reheating, the sliders are never going to be as good as eating them right when you make them, so the three methods end up about the same in the end. But these homemade sliders are much better than the frozen sliders from the store.
  13. The oven is just easier to get consistent results. I used to make sliders by making a bunch of small circular patties and then either grilling them or frying them in a pan, but that's a lot more work and the frying pan makes a mess.
  14. There are a LOT more gluten free options than there were a few years ago. My suggestion is to get a gluten-free cookbook and just try recipes to see what you like. While it's not a gluten issue, my wife is allergic to corn and soy, so we started making all of our meals from scratch. The Joy of Cooking is the best cookbook for making everything from scratch if you go that route. The internet can also help you find gluten-free alternative ingredients for recipes that you already like.
  15. My kids love burgers and especially those frozen sliders that are really convenient - microwave for less than a minute, put on bun with ketchup and mustard, and serve. This is about the easiest recipe to make sliders that can be frozen and then reheated in 30 seconds. Ingredients: ground beef (whatever quantity and quality you prefer, I can make about 9 sliders per pound but it'll vary based on how thickness and size) salt optional: ground spices (black pepper, garlic, onion, whatever you like on burgers) Preheat oven to 375 F. Put ground beef in a rimmed baking sheet and push/pound/knead it into a rectangle about a half inch in thickness (if you prefer a different thickness then just adjust the cooking time). Sprinkle salt and spices over the ground beef. Put in the oven until the beef reaches >145 F (about 15-20 minutes, use lower temps at your own risk especially if you're going to freeze the sliders). Optionally, switch the oven to broil for the last minute or so to give the top a bit of crispiness. (The beef will shrink as it cooks by about the same percentage as the amount of fat, so leaner beef will shrink less. I just use whatever ground beef looks good at the store and don't carry about the fat/lean proportions.) Let the beef cool enough to be handled, then cut into rectangles (or whatever shape, I use the King Hawaiian rolls so I cut the sliders to that size). Place the sliders onto a parchment or wax paper lined baking sheet and place in the freezer until completely frozen. Then put the frozen sliders into a resealable bag and keep them in the freezer. Reheating will depend on the size of the sliders and your microwave. Mine take about 20-30 seconds per slider. This is really very simple and can be modified however you like your sliders: use ground turkey or sausage instead of beef, switch up the spices, put some diced onions in the meat before cooking, etc.
  16. Probably oil/fat. You can skim it off with a spoon or even use a paper towel to soak it up if that's easier.
  17. My wife started making this years ago, but you don't need a crockpot. Just put it in a ceramic/pyrex dish in the oven at 350 until heated through and cheese is melted (about 20-30 minutes). She also puts it in layers instead of combining but I don't think it matters as long as the cheese is on top.
  18. The 4-3 relies on athletic freaks to put pressure on the QB. Randy Gregory is the only true pass rusher we've had in... over a decade?
  19. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Wants To Raise Taxes On The Rich — And Americans Agree
  20. Follow the money. Who got the commissions off of these investment choices?
  21. There's also been no ecological or environmental impact studies. One of my biggest logistical questions is whether the wall will make flooding worse since much of the border region is prone to flash floods. And FYI, even a fence can make flooding worse (or affect the movement of the water non-obvious ways).
