For your July 4th indoor enjoyment...
Cooking hot dogs in an air fryer is highly recommended. It takes less than 10 minutes and gives them the same crispy skin and juicy inside as grilling, without the hassle
How to Cook Hot Dogs in an Air Fryer
1Prep: Make a few small, diagonal cuts (or crisscross marks) on the hot dogs. This prevents them from bursting and creates crispy edges for the condiments to stick to.
2Cook: Place the hot dogs in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Air fry at 390°F to 400°F for 4 to 6 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
3Toast the Buns: Place the cooked hot dogs into the buns and return them to the air fryer for 1 to 2 minutes at the same temperature to get them warm and toasty. (If adding cheese, place it on top now!)
Two hundred and fifty years ago, a group of Americans signed their names to a piece of parchment and made a promise no nation had ever made before: that we're all created equal, endowed by our Creator with unalienable rights — life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
We're the only nation in history built not on ethnicity, or blood, or geography but on an idea. That's always been what makes us exceptional. We chose that path 250 years ago but that’s where the work began, not where it ended. Every generation has had to choose it again. At Valley Forge, at Gettysburg, on the beaches of Normandy, in the streets of Selma. Americans recommitted themselves to the principles on which our nation was founded.
Now it's our turn.
There's nothing guaranteed about our democracy. We have to fight for it, defend it, and earn it. Over and over, year after year. That's not a burden. That's what it means to be an American.
250 years in, we still haven't fully lived up to those words in the Declaration. But we've never walked away from them, and this July 4, I hope all of us can commit to one thing: that we never will. I don't believe we're as divided as we're told we are. I've bet my whole life on the American people, and I'm not stopping now.
Happy 250th birthday, America. Our story isn't finished. Let's keep writing it together.
If you're like me, you don't trust Grok as far as you could throw your phone. It is so far up Trump's ass that Elon can stick his head out and say hello.
With the new intelligent Siri in iOS 27, you can view a tweet on your screen and ask HER if this is true. She'll use ChatGPT to confirm or deny it.
OpenAI—the company that creates ChatGPT—operates under a unique corporate structure governed by a nonprofit board. It is not officially aligned with any political party.
Well, kiss my ass. Guess what I dreamed last night...
Dreaming that your teeth crumble and fall out often symbolizes stress, anxiety, a sense of losing control, or a major life change. The crumbling aspect specifically suggests a gradual erosion of confidence, stability, or something you once relied upon
Technically, Texas has no right to celebrate THIS Independence Day. We weren't there to help anyone fight for their independence from a king.
Texas declared independence from Mexico on March 2, 1836. Texas officially became the 28th state in the United States on December 29, 1845, when President James K. Polk signed the joint resolution admitting Texas into the Union. Prior to this, it was an independent republic after gaining independence from Mexico. The formal transfer of government took place a few months later on February 19, 1846.
But for the record, there are many of us today that are fighting for a different type of independence. One that saves America once again.
@ellie_ellbell It has so many memories for me. So many times eating in your car with that tray sitting on your window. I love it too.
But if there's a Whataburger close by, I'm heading there first. 🍔
