🚨BREAKING: More names have been revealed in connection with Palantir CEO Peter Thiel's "secret society" Dialog.
The names are broken out into attendees of the club's retreats and the society's founding members.
In the late 1980s my science teacher, also the head of the A/V department showed me this film (I was an A/V volunteer why I have so much of this stuff).
This is The City from 1939 and it is a very powerful film. It blew me away. And changed me.
I convinced him to show it to all his classes and it was loved.
I love everything about this movie. But especially the part where it said we could do better.
This movie was shown at The World’s Fair and influenced many. However Cronyism and corruption took our good senses and responses it to tribalism that nullified the will of those that saw this film and saw a healthy path.
Take the 45 minutes and know this was 1939.
It's crazy how the people supported Rosie, who spoke out and ruined her career on the view, and Hollywood 15+ years ago, for saying basic mainstream 9/11 trutherism.
Those same people love Trump now, who supported Rosie then, just ignore how he attacked the fuck out of her during all that...
This is absolutely hilarious!!! Im going to have to try this little prank on my very special woman once i build up the courage to handle the repercussions. When I do it though, I will be sure to record it for all of us to get a big laugh at. 🤣🤣🤣👻🪆
An interesting thing is going, here.
In the cat world, being the one that grooms the other one means they're the boss.
In the bunny world it's the other way round: the one being groomed is the boss.
So these two are both thinking they're the boss.
SELENE'S GUIDE TO RANCH DRESSING FOR WORLD CUP VISITORS
So you have discovered ranch. The whole world is smuggling it past the TSA, and I am genuinely delighted for all of you. But before you check a bottle in your luggage, let me save you from yourself.
Rule one. The restaurant ranch is the good ranch.
The stuff you are falling in love with at American restaurants is mostly made fresh, in house, that morning. That is why it tastes alive. If the ranch is thick and gloppy, run. Thick ranch means they bought it in a bucket, and you deserve better.
Rule two. Do not buy the little bottles to take home.
That is the tourist trap. The bottled stuff is not what won your heart at the restaurant.
Rule three. If you must take it home, buy the big seasoning containers, not the liquid.
The large tubs of dry ranch seasoning at Walmart, your grocery store, or Sam's and Costco are the real treasure. The powder travels beautifully and laughs at the 3.4 ounce liquid rule. Skip the bottled dressing entirely. The seasoning is what you want.
And yes, about all that confiscated liquid ranch. The TSA has been enjoying the leftovers. Word is they have been eating wings nonstop since this whole thing started. Somewhere in a back room at every major airport is an agent on his fourth plate, living his best life. You are welcome, fellas.
Rule four. The real move is making it yourself.
If you have fresh herbs, or you run out of the American powder back home, here is the recipe that rivals any restaurant in the country.
RESTAURANT RANCH
Half cup mayonnaise
Half cup sour cream
1 tsp dried dill, or 3 tsp fresh
Half tsp dried parsley, or 1.5 tsp fresh
Half tsp dried chives, or 1.5 tsp fresh
Half tsp garlic powder, or 1 grated clove
Half tsp Worcestershire sauce
Quarter tsp onion powder
Half tsp salt
Quarter tsp black pepper
1 to 3 tsp white wine vinegar or fresh lemon juice, to taste
Half to three quarter cup buttermilk, added slowly to your desired thinness
Whisk it all together. Add the buttermilk last and slowly, tasting as you go. Refrigerate at least two hours so the flavors marry. Thin with more buttermilk if it thickens.
And finally, what ranch is actually for.
Ranch hides the flavor of every vegetable you secretly hate.
Ranch rescues bad pizza.
Ranch turns a sad plate of corn or tortilla chips into something you will think about later. Just stir in a little extra sour cream for dipping.
Ranch does not make food better. Ranch makes food possible.
Welcome to America.
Now go put it on something. 🦋
A century ago, one in every four big trees in the eastern forests of America was a chestnut, and every autumn the country under them ate for free.
The American chestnut was a giant, a hundred feet tall, and there were close to four billion of them from Maine to the Deep South. Each autumn they dropped a carpet of sweet nuts so thick you raked it up by the sackful. Families roasted them all winter. Hogs and cattle were turned loose in the woods to fatten on them for nothing. Turkey, deer and bear lived off the same mast. The timber, straight and rot-proof, built the barns, the fence posts and the furniture. One tree fed the people, fattened the livestock, carried the wildlife through winter, then built the house.
Then in 1904 a blight arrived on imported Asian chestnut stock, spotted first on the trees at the Bronx Zoo. It moved through the forest at fifty miles a year, and by the 1940s it had killed close to four billion trees, nearly every mature chestnut on the continent. One of the worst ecological catastrophes in the country's history.
Here is the part that should stop you. The tree is not quite dead. The old roots still send up shoots, year after year, that the blight cuts down before they grow tall enough to fruit. A century on, the stumps are still trying, and still failing.
A free harvest that fed a continent every autumn for thousands of years, gone in forty, and still reaching for a sky it will never reach again.
One of my cats has a bad habit of jumping up on my kitchen countertop. I tried everything to break his habit.
My stepdaughter sent me this funny video. Tinfoil looks like it works... I'm definitely going to give it a try. 😂😂
This guy assigns a hard liquor to every branch of the military and I think he's spot-on! This had me LMAO!
What do you think, military folks? Does this sound like you? Even my military brothers loved this and laughed! 🤣
