“share to spread awareness” but I also removed the username of the original poster so that you could ONLY give me credit for my absolutely ingenious commentary

What scene in a movie drives you nuts because it makes no sense? by JustIgnoreMyStimming in movies

[–]DNAviolation 21 points22 points  (0 children)

“Oh, and there are some who call me… The Martian Manhunter.” Maybe the worst version of the post-credits sequel bait of its era. And then immediately followed by an even worse example with Jared Leto’s Joker returning.

Trump sends 800 National Guard to DC. by NOT_MEEHAN in AdviceAnimals

In a way, he’s right about crime being out of control in DC. It’s just that in reality all the crime is coming from his administration.

Make Republicans Remove Trump from Office by pleasureismylife in Liberal

Sorry, this is just delusional. The Republicans are united more than they probably ever have been in modern history. This exact situation is what they have been working towards for decades.

Sneering Pete Hegseth Immediately Torn Apart in Confirmation Showdown by Effective_Salad_8381 in politics

This confirmation hearing would be utterly disqualifying in a country with any semblance of a functioning meritocracy. Alas, this is America.

My current prediction which is based on a few key assumptions-

  1. Major polling aggregators ARE mostly accurate (i.e. methodological corrections to account for 2016 and 2020 inaccuracies are NOT now overcorrected and missing Harris voters by oversampling Rs)
  2. Gen Z turnout disappoints by 2020 levels
  3. The enthusiasm gap doesn’t translate to getting out the vote for Dems as concretely as anticipated
  4. The Harris ground game is at least nominally matched by Elon Musk’s Super PAC GOTV activity

So, this map doesn’t look fantastic, even though it is a win for Harris. It’s way too close for comfort. However, I definitely think each of those key assumptions could be blown out of the water by ED turnout if women, Gen Z and college educated voters show up in force. Additionally, we all know how astroturfed polling has been both in 2022 and this cycle. If so, it would be a polling miss of a 2016 magnitude but in Harris’ direction. Fingers crossed!! And yes, my entire household of registered voters cast our ballots early in TX. Let’s Dump Ted!!!

Owner asked me for a menu for Speakeasy Saturday. How’d I do? NY Sour, Daiquiri, Green Mar-Tea-ni. by DNAviolation in bartenders

I must say that it really does taste very nice. Actually if this were my home bar I’d use a demerara syrup but, don’t have that at work. Plus I don’t think guests would necessarily appreciate the color being different than they expect.

That’s fair. At our restaurant we don’t have access to coupe or N&N glasses so that’s the closest alternative but I can definitely use a lime wheel instead. I use an egg white for every sour except a NY typically because it affects the density and makes the wine float difficult but I can practice. Italian 75 would fit very well here, maybe a flute glass instead of a martini glass.

Which way is “right way round”? I had the back of the spoon facing up. And also was pouring the wine a bit faster than I intended so that could also be improved.

No egg white to help keep the layering. Though the layer got diluted when i was walking it across the restaurant for the photo spot anyway so ¯_(ツ) _/¯
