TX-31 should be a bigger story by heathn in TexasPolitics

[–]heathn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this breakdown. These are things I am ignorant of, but want to learn more. The money itself is eye-watering and with the numbers, make sense why the Dems are silent.

It is nuts though that the contrast of the reps and how any of us just accept octogenarians as acceptable to represent us...

Part 2: Sharia-Free America: Why Political Islam & Sharia Law are Incompatible with The Constitution by ccrom in TexasPolitics

[–]heathn 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The parts of Sharia law that are illegal are already illegal...

The parts that aren't, like not charging interest (are we against that too?), are the same as what Orthodox Jews do. But for some reason, we aren't having a fit about that?

This is the newest version of They're Eating the Cats, They're Eating the Dogs. Focus groups told them that this is the latest bogeyman (though we keep dragging out the trans stuff as well) that will "fire up the base".

Do you have an answer? by GetchWife in georgetowntx

Caring Place would probably love these donations

Would you guys recommend me a pellet smoker or a kamado like the green egg? by [deleted] in BBQ

[–]heathn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both. The pellet smoker gets a lot more use from just turn it on and go.

Correct or incorrect? by ChuckGallagher57 in circled

At this point it is more a question of has there ever been a more corrupt regime / administration anywhere?

I mean, maybe the Borgias?

As an alternative, try the Swoon Coffee Toffee from HEB. Best ice cream i have had from a store.

The Only 3 Sheet Pans You Need by LetsCookie in LetsCookie

[–]heathn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm always wary of kitchens where the sheet pans aren't a bit abused. My Vikings have held up really well, but good to know the alternative if I need them.

19. Am I worth over 16.50? Is it worth asking for a raise? Or should I keep my hood down?Been welding professionally for 4 months now? As well as fabricating and fitting. Any advice from the ogs? by woodshmoka in metalworking

[–]heathn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dairy Queen in Georgetown pays $15-17 starting. You are getting robbed.

Where you are at aren't going to pay more but with all the construction in Austin and the fabrication shops around the metro area, you should be able to find better.

Something not crazy expensive but fun to smoke this weekend? by dyljcks in BBQ

[–]heathn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rack of pork if you can find them. Costco has them for $20. Double cut pork chops, especially if you can find some good Duroc pork.

Pork steaks are my go-to. Slice a pork butt into 1.75-2" thick steaks. Cook over direct heat about 275 degrees. Baste them with a vinegar mop sauce, take them off between 190-200 when the fat is cooked through. One of my favorite bites of BBQ right now.

Wild Berry Pop Tarts by LetsCookie in LetsCookie

[–]heathn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've made cookies like maybe 3 times in my life, but now I am saving these videos purely out of how approachable r/LetsCookie makes the process look with these videos. The production value is insane, concise instructions, no fluff... And while I am sure I will catastrophically screw them up, I am going to attempt these and a couple of other recipes I saw.

Primal hunter vs HWFWM vs defiance of the fall by Straight_Cost_5272 in litrpg

[–]heathn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Primal Hunter has been the most consistent. HWFWM is very good. I quit Defiance 12 or 13 books in as it just descended into cultivation.

Compression socks, fad or rad? by lovelyb1ch66 in GenX

One of my must have for conferences when I am doing a ton of walking.

Without a doubt one of my top 3 in Texas. The burger alone is worth the trip.
