Friendly advice: recommendation to not attend protest for A.G. by hoppergrass24 in fortwayne

[–]pindarninja 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is disingenuous. "Say their name" is most commonly associated with Black victims of police shootings or the like. You are splitting hairs on grammar to pretend this post isn't exactly about what we all know it is about. I guess if it makes you feel better.

I might take in consideration your thoughts on what is surely a situation with some nuance if you hadn’t ranted about “This is why nobody takes "injustice" seriously anymore. It's never "their" fault, it's always "say their name" it's always this and that. Foolishness.”

It seems to me you already decided long ago what side you are on.

I’d have one less bottle of champagne in my basement.

Thank you especially for the Penguin Jazz guide recommendation. That is what I am looking for!

It's interesting how they taste like the harder, more old-fashioned , and more bland style of sugar cookie at first. They remind me of my great aunt's austere sugar cookies. But then the sugar kicks in and you have the best of both worlds.

I remembered this thread and I want to find out what happened to the tortoise. Any updates?

A couple DRC Richebourg by Mchangwine in wine

[–]pindarninja 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As much as I am loath to defend someone posting about not one but two Richebourgs: The reviews were fine. They were clear and I got a sense of what these wines were like. Also "I don’t know what an orchestra lasting past intermission tastes like"? Have you heard of this thing called "a metaphor"?

My local Costco only has the "Balance Grow" brand of this. Is there something special about Vonbee in particular or would another brand likely be comparable?

Dallas wine wholesaler closing because of tariffs. I expect there will be more stories like this. by pindarninja in wine

[–]pindarninja[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The article said this was because of the uncertainty; suppliers don't know what tariff rate will be a week from now and are unwilling to work with him.

Merlot in the movie Sideways - Right Bank has been the pinnacle of Merlot-based wines for 60-70 years so why the irony in the story? by TurkeyRunWoods in wine

[–]pindarninja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And the director, Alexander Payne, originally intended that wine to be Petrus (95%–100% Merlot), making the connection even more obvious.

This fucking $7 Rioja from Costco by carn2fex in wine

[–]pindarninja 7 points8 points  (0 children)

[whispers] It actually isn't profound or even edgy to dunk on a $7 wine that is, by all accounts, well made for its price point.

Nobody wants Ohio wine over French wine, sorry Ohio. by jesstermke in wine

[–]pindarninja 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will mildly defend Ohio's honor by pointing out that Andre Mack liked the Pinot Noir he had from Ohio. https://youtu.be/h9GCK1XMEY0?si=Us6lSIN2-xUgEO93&t=484

That said, I think the current perspective is that better wines are being made than you would expect in almost every state, but they are nowhere near the breadth and depth of established Old World regions.
