Re: Happy Inauguration Day (and beyond- The Biden Presidency Thread part I)
I'd also love to know how they set what zero bias is. Like what is the platonic neutral stance? Yeah, because even the most unbiased media outlet is still making very distinct choices about WHAT to cover. Like, that's probably.. I dunno, 40 or 50 percent of the overall approach (editorial) on any g...

Re: Happy Inauguration Day (and beyond- The Biden Presidency Thread part I)
Quick round-up of thoughts: * Yesterday... the entire day... was just pitch perfect. Biden's speech was important and hit all the right notes. But, overall, I couldn't turn away from any of it. It felt so good to have such extreme competency on display. * I even enjoyed the evening ceremony, which I...

All you have to do is look at states that had competent leadership (and correspondingly low infection/hospitalization/death rates). Thi...

Even if being a pass heavy team next year means you ...

Re: The Lunch Thread
Well, to be clear, you still have to cut stuff and mix stuff and all that.
In fact, I'd say that a certain percentage of the recipes (under 20 percent) are actually not great for a true beginner. You need to know how to chop versus slice up an onion, for example.
