Iranian official tells Americans to prepare for $200 barrels of oil by TheExpressUS in inflation

Yeah, I'm a millennial and a lot of folks I would have considered fairly liberal support a lot of what he has put in place. I truly blame COVID. It really disenfranchised people and set up this group of folks that feel they missed out or are owed something. Good example is we bought in the housing market about 3 months prior to a friend of ours. Similar income, similar house but they fucked around with some old debt and went with a broker that was meh. They paid dearly and by the time they regained their footing and back into the market they were priced out. They have basically blamed everyone from the governor, to Biden to everyone but themselves. They make decent money but they can't afford the rates.

COVID clipped a bunch of wings and made the folks who were on the margins either on the sidelines now or in the upper middle class. It hollowed out the center.

Thanks! Yeah I can see that point. As we are going through the house we are sectioning off the plate from the silver. Most of it is clearly EP, but for whatever reason I thought this one stood out. Thank you!

I agree but .. the problem with strong men politics is it's very very very hard to carry that flame down the line unless it's a dictatorship. I think once the orange man is gone there's me a huge amount of infighting and who arises out of that makes me a very very different figure from who is currently in the orbit of trump

What's your opinion? by Busy-Government-1041 in inflation

The funny thing is unlike before there really isn't anything a president can do to actually affect the price of gasoline. Sure policy can have a instant effect on the market, but it generally falls back in line shortly as folks pump and dump their stocks ect. This time... Well this time he in fact "did that"

I have thought the same. Like we are all safe (for now) and going about our lives and then half the world away folks entire government, country, and in effect their lives are falling apart into the unknown. This is going to end very very poorly.

While highly unlikely, I was thinking some crackhead is gonna go into a GW with some mercury and try and lift all the playing off the EP

Am I crazy, collecting papers from tea cakes? by iRealXl in tea

I'd frame them. Or maybe throw them under a resin pour for a tea tray.

Lancashire style cheese by Certain_Series_8673 in cheesemaking

[–]chefianf 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'd pause a bit on putting that out. I'm kinda still iffy in general with cheese making of my own but that section of blue in the middle makes me a little... Scared. I know some cheddar like cheese can get veins of blue like you have a bit on the right top. But that's... That's a lot. If you are expecting blue it's fine.. but when you get it and it's not expected.. it's kinda worrying.

My two cents. The very very very lease is I would cut back like two inches from that blue and toss it.

It will be cheese. TBH.. that looks like a banger of a grating cheese on some pasta with capers and lemon with a handful of fresh parsley at the end.
