I tried a Trader Joe’s pepperoni pizza. Not a fan. I cooked it for the recommended 14 minutes at 425 degrees. It didn’t look done so I put it back in for 2 minutes.
The crust was ok but the middle part was too doughy & wet. Like it didn’t cook. If I put it back in for the center to cook, the crust would be black.
I won’t buy that again.

Prof. Leibowitz: There are Judeo-Nazis. Israel Represents the Darkness of a State Body.
Good morning. Hope you're having a good weekend. Fairly chill here today. Charlie goes back to school tomorrow. So there's an end of summer feel to the day.
Just hope the weather gets the memo.

During a town hall Wednesday in Worth County, Iowans urged Hinson to “stop lying” after she claimed that the president’s key legislation had ushered in “higher wages” and an improved cost of living.
“Higher wages?” shouted one woman incredulously. “For who? For you?”

my next few months working on Plasma accessibility will involve:
- Touch gestures for desktop zoom
- Individual zoom level and tracking for each display on multi-display systems (if you enable it, some users may prefer it acting like one giant screen)
- Shape-aware upscaling for extreme zoom levels. Makes text appear far less blurry. I'll turn it off by default.

Farms have lost 155,000 workers since March.
This is the "Jobs Paradox":
We want to protect American jobs, but Americans won't take these jobs. So crops rot, prices rise, and we import the food anyway.
When farms can't harvest crops, food rots in fields. Less supply plus steady demand equals higher prices at checkout.
Your grocery bill is about to explode.

#Israel has done everything and far more in only the past week, than anyone accused #Assad of ever having done.
In the past week, the Israelis have used #ChemicalWeapons #WMDs in #GazaCity, and carried out the #assassination of the #PrimeMinister of #Yemen. Imagine if that had been #Paris and #Macron, or if #Iran had done it.
States have been fully isolated, invaded, and overthrown for less. But Israel gets to keep doing it, and even gets help.
