Thinking too much about books, technology, and people.

i took this walk yesterday with intent. i spent the time thinking about a society where two men can use the notion that another man didn’t “comply” with their orders. where they deliberately killed a man because… https://t.co/q9dxOAwUp2

in which soup becomes a sauce. turkey meatballs over rice with leftover roasted vegetables. a coconut curry broth for flavor and moisture. used the minutericeband samples we received from the carlsbadmarathon, and… https://t.co/tlWwEaz4Nm

pizza. salad. add hummus and an egg. #glutenfree broccoli and kale crust from traderjoes (do they still sell this?), topped with hummus — we are fully stocked on hummus — a lightly dressed salad. then a fried egg.… https://t.co/e8dAg23h9y

@ananavarro ah, but as the non-punny daughter of a punner, i believe you meant “which many find disgusting” (sorry long day)

[Kassia Krozser @booksquare]

and then, there’s this. RT @NPR: It would be easy to overlook this dark blob of ancient chewing gum….[ellipses mine] And the recovered DNA tells us a lot about one woman who lived about 5,700 years ago.

@bradfordlit slow roasted prime rib is basically, you know, the easiest thing ever. check out the food lab (search prime rib). dry brine, throw in oven, enjoy your day.

i favorited a tweet from @danrather earlier today, and am still thinking about this: the average american is as likely to be urban and not-white as they are rural and white. real america isn’t mayberry.

@barefootjim so you’re in?

[Kassia Krozser @booksquare]

going on record: not opposed to the concept of space force, but also wondering why we can’t also forgive deceptive student loans and offer some sort of medicare-for-all as well. maybe cut down on golf trips???

@lnalpert that’s a good thing. have been tracking the bulb on my desk lamp because it was the first led i bought. and it illuminates a lovely dragonfly lamp. only goes off in power outages.

[Kassia Krozser @booksquare]

have lived with energy- and water-efficient items for decades. promise you LED lightbulbs don’t turn you orange, and more than pay for themselves (have had one light on continuously for over ten years, cost $15, previously replaced bulb twice a year).

[Kassia Krozser @booksquare]

and in an indulgence from my friends who attended a party at my house last night, flushes were limited to one time, per bathroom visit. efficiency in business is touted as a virtue; shouldn’t it be a virtue in households as well?

[Kassia Krozser @booksquare]

the first is because of the lack of serious reporting on how other candidates earn their money; the latter because a man who doesn’t understand the modern world believes we should go back in time.

[Kassia Krozser @booksquare]

things bothering: a) @washingtonpost (i’m a subscriber) failing to mention number of years it took elizabeth warren to earn her money, and b) fact that taxpayer money may be used to, seriously, study toilet flushes because the president lives in the 1980s.

[Kassia Krozser @booksquare]

this is a great story RT @NPR: Author Adam Minter estimates that the average thrift store in the U.S. is only able to sell about one third of what's donated.

In his new book, "Secondhand," he set out to find out what happens to the other two-thirds.

@calliemiller she won me over, and it was a hard battle for her (a battle she didn’t know she was fighting, but still).

@barefootjim whew! was not prepared to host a baby shower over the holiday season.
