Got a new V

Try it with me

Let’s give it a whirl

They lived in a one bedroom cottage and kept Jack Russell terriers and were buried next to each other.

Otherwise it was an older billionaire that took in the younger when he was in college and they donned masks and fought crime together.

So the original 'chili Queens" who brought chili con carne to Texas sometimes added beans. It was often used as a topping for tamales. If you go back further, pretty much as far as you can go on this particular subject, the Aztecs, Incas, and Mayans all had precursor dishes that were meat, peppers, spices, and beans. Delicious proto chili!

Beans have been a part of chili since the beginning. You can’t add them for a lot of competitions, but that doesn’t make the off-competition stuff any less authentic. Central Texas gets weird about it, but they get weird about a lot of shit. They’re the ones who took the recipe from tejanas and removed the beans in the first place.

That being said, I prefer a chili with no beans. You can skip the rest of this comment because it’s just a guy who is now reminiscing about chili past and thinking of chili future.

I will take a bunch of peppers I’ve grown (usually super hot, but I have some guajillos and jalapenos in the mix this year) and smoke them, yellow onion, garlic, beer, cayenne, masa harina, strong coffee, a collection of spices to make my own chili powder (not a secret, I just don’t have my recipe card in front of me…it heavily features smoked paprika and cumin), a little homemade adobo sauce, homemade bacon, and whatever leftover beef I have (usually brisket, sometimes chuck, and around the holidays rib roast) cut into little cubes and cooked up. I don’t think I’ve made chili with beef that wasn’t leftovers for a couple of decades.

It takes probably half an hour of work, then half a day of simmering stirring very occasionally, then mix in the masa harina 15 or 20 minutes before you’re ready to serve.

Yes. Fixed. Fingers moved faster than my brain.

Thanks for the heads up!

He no longer has it, or at least couldn’t find it. The search continues.

No word yet.

Imagine one of those in a hidden dimension just sticking one of those tentacles in where we can see in a human skin suit.

In that case, yeah. Pretty much.

He saw the operation you tried to pull today

But your humiliation means he still votes “Neigh!”

And now assassination is just the only way

There will be blood, it might be yours

So, go kill someone!

Several years ago my friend sent me a photo of a local Brake Check location down the street from his house at night with some of the letters burned out so that it said Bra Check. This post prompted me to ask him if he still had it so that I can make my first Lemmy post.

A friend of mine is pretty sure Kenneth Copeland is a part of a fourth dimensional angler fish. He’s just out here looking vaguely human and teaching the Bible just wrong enough so that instead of Jesus coming back it’s going to be some nightmarish horror.

Also, he eats a pet every few days. Not because he needs meat, but because he feeds off the suffering of children.

Didn’t we have a ouija board as a president back when Nancy’s psychic was running the show?

Same. It’s actually the reason I chose Android over IOS way way back in the day.

World’s saddest Cyberman.

Don’t blame you. I hope you’ve had a great Pride month without that!

You post a bunch of content and you’re friendly. If someone here hates you that means they’re missing out.

I do miss all the SovCit stuff you used to post, but I know that other topics deserve your attention and you deserve to not have to look at that all day long. I still think you’re awesome.

I would like to point out that I am not related to whoever made that and I do not endorse their meme creation techniques.

I don’t recommend anyone buy any of them, but one of the books (or possibly short stories? It’s been a while) in the Ender series by OSC kind of touches on that.

I got on ICQ in 97 or 98 to keep up with friends from a MUD and mine was 7 digits. I haven’t logged into it in over a decade because when I went back to see if anyone from the old game was around none ever showed up online.

I already said it about Flying Squid, but BonesOfTheMoon is also a treasure.

Came here to say this. I’ve worked on systems for a restaurant on the beach and it was corroded as hell. We had the wireless access points in cheap “weatherproof” boxes and they got corroded. We replaced them once a year or so because it was so bad.
