US Bureau of Labor Statistics reports average hourly wage growth has surpassed inflation for 12 straight months
  • The first mate on a ship decided to celebrate an occasion with a “little” stowed away rum. Unfortunately he got drunk and was still drunk the next morning. The captain saw him drunk and when the first mate was sober, showed him the following entry in the ship’s log: “The first mate was drunk today.” “Captain please don’t let that stay in the log”, the mate said. “This could add months or years to my becoming a captain myself.” “Is it true?” asked the captain, already knowing the answer. “Yes, its true” the mate said. “Then if it is true it has to go in the log. That’s the rule. If its true it goes into the log, end of discussion” said the captain sternly. Weeks later, it was the first mate’s turn to make the log entries. The first mate wrote: “The ship seems in good shape. The captain was sober today"

    Once you understand this story all of economics makes sense.

  • Conspiracy Theorists Think Biden Was Hit With Directed-Energy Weapons During Debate
  • Hey, buddy what happened to your original comment? Since you clearly respect the truth so very much why don't you tell the world what you said to me before? I thought it was quite insightful and a good representation of the anti-GMO position. In fact your comments about my intelligence were perhaps the single best, nay the best, arguments against GMOs I have ever seen.

  • Clarence Thomas takes aim at a new target: Eliminating OSHA
  • The Pope wanted it gone. This is the most Catholic Supreme Court in US history and they got rid of abortion. It really doesn't get any deeper than that.

    Roberts in particular is really showing his age and is devout. It's highly likely they threatened to withhold communion from him just like they did with Biden unless he gave in. If you really thought hell was real and you could end up going there you would be willing to do anything to avoid that fate. Including murder.

    Put yourself in his perspective for a moment. He kills say a million women because they are denied lifesaving treatments. Well all those women are probably going to go to heaven anyhow, and heaven is forever. If he saves those women from death he goes to hell, the women he saved still end up going where they are going but he personally gets a time period in hell that laughs at a billion eons.

    Wouldn't you do the same? Would you really allow yourself to be tortured for fucking forever just to save people who are already saved? It makes no sense too. You might be the kinda person who would run into traffic to push a kid out of a way of a bus possibly killing yourself, but even if you were you wouldn't just run into random traffic.

  • MAGA pastor says Ten Commandments in schools will stop teachers from "raping" kids
  • Hey legal question and totally unrelated.

    If I got some furry porn commissioned and named one of the characters "Pastor Jack Hibbs" then alerted the media in Chino California of the existence of said porn would anything bad happen? Pretty sure it would fall under protected speech because a reasonable person wouldn't conclude I was claiming that he was an anthropomorphic fox.

    Dave Lister is the last man of the universe and the last man as conceived by Nietzsche.

    He was so boring that his own robotic shoes tried to escape him, his entire philosophy is "be nice", one episode shows that his greatest fear is having power, he mocks all greatness, has no ambition, and seeks nothing but small comforts.

    Got hired

    Hi all. I bring in pretty much every loaf I post here into my work. Work for a decent sized corp so it gets devoured quickly. One of the people who works there has offered me a part-time position to make custom breads for his family owned restaurant. Starting with those mini taro+matcha loafs.

    I took it and start on Tuesday evening. No idea how far this is going to go, it felt really good getting that offer.

    Would like to thank the community for putting up with my experiments, failures, and offering feedback and ideas.

    First attempt at matcha and taro used smaller loafs

    ! !

    Yeah the stuck together. It came out well I think the matcha needs something to balance it like seeds and I should use more taro next time.

    It's peanut butter jelly time!

    !

    Each braid had a light jam filling in it. Braiding was a bit of a challenge. It however was worth the effort. So guess I got a new thing to explore, since spice painting is figured out, and that is fillings.

    Yesterday's work

    I am really struggling moving over from counter bulk rises to fridge ones. This is my first attempt with a braided bread. 6 hours in my refrigerator and ended up adding an hour during second rise. Tastes great but I haven't gotten the process down yet.

    Alright feeling pretty good about this one

    Nuts: almond + walnut ground up Wash: olive oil, egg, milk, and honey Add-ons: 3.5 tablespoons of peanut butter powder, some chocolate chips, and 50 grams almond flour Spice painting: cinnamon on one side and peanut butter on the other

    On a personal note I am thinking about 18 more braided loads before I move on to other bakes.

    Partial Failure on another oeanute butter loaf

    Had to rush through the braiding process and it definitely shows. However the tastes was fine. Ground the walnuts and almond flakes this time.

    I will continue to post failures as well as successes since I think that makes for a healthier online community

    Increased Peanut Butter powder to two tablespoons

    !

    Increased peanut butter powder to two tablespoons. Wash is a mix of spice painted cinnamon and peanut butter powder over a layer of egg+olive oil+honey+milk, slight amount of coconut powder in dough

    Now with peanut butter powder

    Cinnamon on outside the lighter color on the inside is from peanut butter powder

    Braided with half almond half pumpkin, almond flour mixed with white

    I could swear the dough somehow knows when my heart isn't in it and I am just going through the motions. Still tasty but not what I wanted. Fluffier than last time which I attribute to adding less flour during kneeding and not letting it sit as long in braided form.
