California’s Business-Climate Deniers
At what point, if any, will Sacramento get the message?
The Antrim County Forensic Audit
It sure looks like funny business. Next step would be to audit all of Michigan (and maybe all Dominion machines in the swing states).

Georgia has to be the focus now.

…is a culture-war battle.

Coffee
You need four cups a day for the health benefits? We’ve both quit for the past few months, but when I was drinking it, I could barely choke down two.
“Social Justice”
I’m hoping that the coming crime wave won’t extend to the beach cities. I suspect it won’t, because the criminals will want to stay in the jurisdiction in which they’ll be coddled.
[Update a while later]
Well, this sucks. It’s the LA County DA, so it will affect us as well.

These are worse than Heinlein’s Crazy Years.
The War On The Electoral College
…has only just begun.
If you oppose the Electoral College, or the fact that states get an equal number of senators, you literally hate the United States of America.

It was never Trump; it was corporate power.
McDonald’s Fries
A history, and a recipe. I disagree with this, though:
His cholesterol was over 300, comfortably in the danger zone for heart attacks. Lack of self-control aside, it was fatty foods that nearly killed him. Thus, when he emerged from the hospital, he did so on a one-man mission to fight Big Fat.
It was not the fat that nearly killed him. We now have abundant evidence that the problem with McDonald’s fries was not the tallow, but the potatoes themselves. I’ve long advocated that, given that the company is the largest cattle rancher in the world, it should go back to tallow, and get rid of the unhealthy seed oils.
What I don’t understand about the recipe is why it uses Crisco, with just a little tallow added, presumably for flavor. It would probably be much better, and certainly healthier, to simply fry them in pure tallow.
