The world is a shithole ran by selfish evil souls. I say this as a non veteran who had every intention of serving until I decided not to. I have much respect for our veterans, I come from a military family, but I have no regrets for my decision.

Been a long time since I've been to UE campus, I graduated from USI. The living arrangements at USI from dorms to on campus apartments are far more comfortable than the sardine can dorm rooms at UE. And with the new gym at USI I can't see anyone picking UE over USI unless it was their only option.

I buy onion buns(any bun you like will work) and roast beef from the deli. I like boars head. I butter and toast the buns and warm up the roast beef with a little bit of beef stock in the skillet. Cheese sauce(can adjust but keep ratio) 4oz sharp cheddar 4oz American 1/4 cup half and half Stir on low/med low heat until melted Arbys red sauce(I spice to taste but spice measurements should be close) 1 cup ketchup 2 tbsp apple cider or white vinegar 1/2 tsp honey 1/2 tsp paprika A little garlic and onion powder Salt 1/4 water 2 tsp Mayo You can make and reheat sauce or cook and let simmer 5-10 mins. Just need to let flavors come together.

I grilled a full bird the other day. I like quarters and wife likes white meat. So I buy whole chickens and break them down. The leftover was made into a grilled chicken salad. For a side I roasted Brussel sprouts in bacon grease. After they were finished I added a diced up peice of bacon and maple butter. To make the maple butter I used 2 tablespoons of softened butter and 1 tablespoon maple syrup and tossed it all together. I recommend trying this

I've not tried tongue. I'm getting more adventurous. I have a package of 50/50 grass fed ground beef and liver mix in the freezer. I like the idea of the health benefits of liver but don't like the texture. Although I'll eat the crap out of a liver pate.

On the rare occasion I go to steak n shake anymore is for a Chili Mac and cherry sprite. Last one I went to was in bedford probably about 6 months ago. It's wasn't too bad. I got an original triple steak burger, don't think anything smaller would have been enough and the menu looked smaller. Anymore I find myself making copycats of what I'm craving using better quality ingredients. Mostly due to lack of access. I believe I've perfected the Arby's beef n cheddar. For Christmas I got a cast iron griddle for the grill and a utensil set to make diner style smashburgers.

The first movie I ever watched with my grandma was Dirty Harry on a betamax.

Hell yeah. And Bronco Billy.

Agreed. And in addition to the spaghetti westerns you have Hang em High and High Plains Drifter. And arguably the best The Outlaw Josey Wales. I'm only a few movies away from finishing my Clint Eastwood collection.

You have to be a workaholic. 9 wives sounds exhausting. Unless you met 8 in Vegas.

Don't know if it's just coincidence but I've seen several gas stations that don't have the price on the sign. Also saw where gas stations in Washington state are adding and extra digit in anticipation of $10 a gallon.

Since I can neither use the search function or navigate pages has anyone watched The Last Kingdom? Looking for a new show to binge.

I was really hoping teleportation would have become a thing. Would really cut down on the daily commute. I'm not sure I would want to travel to the future if I couldn't come back to present.

I think it was Stephen Hawking that said that if there is intelligent life out there we are better off if we don't meet them. They may look at us the way we look at bacteria. As for time travel, if it was possible, an older version of me would have already shown up to kick my ass.

There are alot of variables. A big one being whether or not one takes a literal interpretation of the Bible. I tend to look at the old testament figuratively. I came up with the idea for a paper I had to write for an evolutionary biology class in college about evolution vs creation. I just wanted to stump the professor but it actually led to a pretty good discussion.

I was taught that time is a construct of man and the Bible does say that in God's time a 1000 years is a day and a day a 1000 years which could mean anything. So theoretically creation could have taken 6.5 billion years. Since Adam and Eve were created on the 6th day what if each day of creation took a billion years and evolution was just one of the tools used? I don't know. This is the kind of stuff I think about in my downtime at work.

I've wondered what if evolution was God's mechanism for creation and evolutionary theory and creation are intertwined.

I guess what bothers me is mainstream media will connect this loser and white supremacists as leaning right when it is actually the opposite. I won't post it but I've perused the kids manisifesto and he is clearly deranged and a self described authoritarian leftist. If anyone hasn't seen American History X it is worth watching.

Who is saying this? Genuinely curios where you saw this.

Although tragic, mass shootings are still a statistically rare event. Thought this was interesting. https://www.statista.com/statistics/476456/mass-shootings-in-the-us-by-shooter-s-race/

Just a badass song. https://youtu.be/yqIQvE5R1tU

Hell. I have enough guns. Time for more guitars.

Trent Reznor's version is about pain. Physical and emotional. I've experienced that. Johnny Cash version is about regret and I've experienced that too. Both recently.

As I get older and learn more this song makes more sense. Addiction is a bitch.
