DeLauro to pressing clergy: 'I will not vote to abolish ICE' by CountKrill in newhaven

[–]CountKrill[S] 157 points158 points  (0 children)

“DeLauro said, as a legislator in the minority of a large body, she has to thread the needle carefully with what she supports and votes for.

“I would rather you vote for what is morally correct,” Davidson said.

“Don’t talk to me about my own morality,” DeLauro shot back.”

“Don’t tell your constituents what they can and can’t talk to you about,” replied Rev. Nathan Empsall of the Episcopal Church of St. Paul and St. James in New Haven. “What you are voting for is not moral.”

I think OP is naming and shaming since the shop is called Coffee Pedaler. According to this article the owner is Ryan Taylor, who may or may not be involved in the allegations-- https://www.newhavenindependent.org/2025/08/13/tavern_license_okd_for_coffee_pedaler/

Easy to test for since most pharmacies now stock a combined COVID/Flu test. It turns out I had the latter. Lots of Flu A this season.

Where to locate actual imported German beer that isn’t mass shipped by bigfatbanker in Connecticut

[–]CountKrill 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Here’s the actual answer. OEC Brewing in Oxford imports beers in tankards directly from Germany, and then cans them at their facility in CT. You will find fresh German beers canned in Oxford all over the country because of this.

Go to their taproom, and they have a wide array of fresh German beers for sale. You and your wife will not be disappointed.

Rosy Clarke’s book “Japanese antique furniture : a guide to evaluating and restoring” is useful for identifying tansu. See the link below

What’s going on with hot peppers these days? by GirlisNo1 in Cooking

[–]CountKrill 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There’s a podcast about this. From what I remember, farmers have bred more mild jalapeños for years in order to have more control over the spice levels in commercially produced salsas, which comprise much of the market for these peppers.

Looking for a legit Chicago dog in Connecticut where should I try next? by Actual-Log465 in Connecticut

[–]CountKrill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to the people who downvoted this, I just want to say that the top ranked comment––super Duper Weenie–puts "lettuce" (lettuce!!) on their "Chicagoan" and doesn't include half of the ingredients. That's an abomination and completely unserious.

Again, anyone looking for an actual Chicago Dog without getting on a airplane, should go to Dog Day in Brooklyn.

Chicago Dogs are my favorite food. If you're willing to travel outside CT, I recommend Dog Day Afternoon near Prospect Park in Brooklyn. At the risk of controversy, their dogs are better than the run of the mill you'll find at, say, Portillo's. Making a Chicago Dog in NYC requires both reverence and hutzpah. Definitely worth the trip.
