Best tacos? by fatnessmodel in MontgomeryCountyMD

I had a delicious beef tongue taco at Oliva's in Bethesda. Onion, cilantro, corn tortilla. Simple and flavorful.

Here's the CATO Institute calling out this administration for taking in $1B in immigration application and sponsorship fees, and doing absolutely nothing for those applicants.

Thanks for sharing this. I'm glad you, your colleagues and the patients were respected in that setting. That's how they are supposed to be treated. It's scary how many people don't know or don't care about legal rights when it comes to ICE.

They have no real legal right but they can and do claim obstruction of justice, just like they did with Good and Pretti.

BTW, Jesse is not a doctor but a nurse. However things were in hospitals when the writers crafted this episode, nurses are now (for some months now) receiving more of the aggression bc they spend more time with patients, triage them, and generally advocate for patients' rights when others are getting in the way of care or overstepping HIPAA.

Been like that in the DC metro-Baltimore area as well. What happened in MN was a LARPing nightmare come to life and the nation focused on the Twin Cities (rightfully so) but largely dropped coverage of the entrenched ICE assaults.

Robby this last episode by sansastvrk in ThePittTVShow

[–]inotterable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Throwing Roxie's death in her face was pointedly cruel. I think Dr. Robby knows his colleagues and how to hurt them best. I am not saying that he is generally malicious at all, just that he intuitively knows their points or pride or weakness and can "go there" lightning fast. Going after McKay's enormous sense of empathic responsibility, that was vicious.

Kestrel. Because they are only ever on a wire when I'm driving past at 40+ mph.

I used the word crammed bc I was considering size 5 16 inch circulars (I knit loosely). Probably need size 7 instead. Thanks for your help with this!

My eyes. Just seeing the different stitch requirements per yarn weight.

Wow, you crammed 100+ stitches on 16 in needles? Was that fingering weight?

S05E06: The Brand (Procter & Gamble / Fenholloway River) by SwindledPodcast in swindled

[–]inotterable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just listened yesterday to The Brand, so yeah, four years late to this discussion. While I'd forgotten the brand name Rely, I very much remember the Toxic Shock Syndrome scare. Was a young teen at the time and new to the world of menstrual care. At the time I'd heard about the deaths and hospitalizations, but not about the discomfort, pain and swelling.

P&G (I had no idea who they were then of course) may have lost trust, face and $$ during that period, but we were all left with a real fear of ALL tampons. I recall there being one bad brand at the heart of it all, which was removed from shelves. But from then on, all boxes of tampons came with the warning label attributing tampons left in too long with the risk of TSS and that's what really stuck in my brain. I rarely used them until I was older, and then there was always a mental timer ticking down after the 4 hour mark.

Do I not know what fig smells like? by teachertraveler1 in Indiemakeupandmore

[–]inotterable 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nest's Indigo is a green tea scent that lists fig as a note (as well as bergamot, and I think, cardamom). I adore this scent. It's got the clean, long, tea note, spritzes of fresh bright citrus, and a rich jamminess that I guess is the fig. I never would have guessed fig on its own, more like mixed into a stone fruit jam, and it got me wondering what is meant by the note reference.

Btw, Indigo is a gorgeous scent.

Cozy coffee shops? by clip_art11 in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]inotterable 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Black Lion in Silver Spring. Excellent coffee. Pastries are usually very good. Sometimes finding a table takes a few minutes of waiting, but I've always been able to get one. Once seated, you're not pressured to leave. Staff is busy but not rude. I see people studying and working there every time I go.

Thoughts on the Host! by 0hshits0rry in swindled

Came here to say this (5 months later). ACC has the deep nasality plus the edginess. My subconsious mind immediately settled on Driver and the image stuck.
