I got my sour cherry at a middle eastern grocery. They had a cool selection.

Not sure what to do with all of these and where they might fit into drink recipes, but it seems like a great opportunity to try something novel.

 

No bourbon or anything, just spicy ginger ale and sour cherry.

Brands blacked out so as to not be promoting products.

ICE Lawyer: He's out of our custody, there's nothing that can be done.

Judge: I order you to get the State Department involved and demand his return from El Salvador, or else I will hold you and your boss and your boss' boss in contempt.

Shouldn't that be the next step?

🔲 Sounds like a skill issue

🔲 Seems more likely he can't function so he has to go the IVF route

🔲 Of course a weirdo Nazi prick would start with his own jizz when it came to filtering out undesirables

You may pick up to THREE (3).

Not a doctor, but I live in the southeastern US, and I've said that I have personal, regional, national, and global reasons for wanting to move north.

Turns out you can fit pretty much the entirety of Christian morality inside of a fortune cookie and the rest is just window dressing.

Proverbs 14:31 Whoever oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God.

Deuteronomy 15:7 If anyone is poor among your fellow Israelites in any of the towns of the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward them.

Luke 14:13-14 But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.

Luke 12:15: Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”

1 John 4:20 If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.

1 John 3:17 But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?

John 13:34 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.

My wife and I watched Morbius, and I have to admit, I got really emotionally involved in the YouTube video we watched immediately afterwards where an engineer built a chicken-slapping robot to see if you could actually cook a chicken by slapping it.

I've noticed that cancer seems to be really good at killing decent people, so my solution is that every time someone nice dies of cancer we should go out and round up five or six total shitheads, throw them into a volcano, and say they died of cancer.

 
 
 
 

A quick search suggests that the average American uses about 1.3 pounds of honey per year. If I'm 40 years old, and guess that I might live to be 80, that's only 52 pounds of honey, which I could easily buy in bulk. Honey doesn't expire, and even assuming the price doesn't skyrocket from bee die-offs, inflation alone will make the price go up over time.

Does it make sense to buy all the rest of the honey I'll ever need for the rest of my life, right now?
