Anything and everything. Turn it into guacamole. Makes a perfect spread on toast, or in pretty much any sandwich you can think of. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and snack time -- it's ready to satisfy all. Makes great dips, goes into salads to lift them to another level. Stuff avocado halves with...
Doesn't look terribly healthy to me. Your breakfasts are providing you a lot of fats and cholesterol. But most of all, a healthy diet is one that is varied, that consists of about 1/2 fruits and vegetables (mixing up green, deep red, yellow), about 1/4 whole grains, 1/4 proteins (fish, meat...
My personal favourite definition of "intelligence," as I think the OP is using it, is "the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills." This presents me with a problem in averaging out the members I typically read. Some are very well-informed on many topics, others not so much so (the...
Trump said -- and this is a quote -- "“Now, if I don’t get elected, it’s gonna be a bloodbath. That’s going to be the least of it. It’s going to be a bloodbath for the country.” He said that in no particular context, so we can only suppose he means what it seems he's saying.
There was much more in that speech -- much of which would not be tolerated if posted here on RF. For example, saying about other people, "they're not human, they're animals." Which of our Mods would permit any one of us to post that here?
Yet, he knows that's whipping up his base -- turning man...
I've seen that argument many times now, in this context. It really does appear that if a civil court -- even with a jury -- decides against someone one happens to favor, then that jury and court are somehow illegitimate. And of course, the opposite holds true -- if it finds for someone one...
Well, who here believes it to be a good thing to spread hatred and the desire for the death or torture of others in the name of religion? And why?
I know quite a few atheists who left their religions precisely because they saw the hatred, and rejected it.
Actually, I don't. It's the women who, when everything has been checked through, suddenly realize they'll need to pay for it, and then struggle with their purses to find out how to do it. I had my debit card in my hand before the first carrots hit the conveyor belt.
Hard to read what was...
I'm willing to bet your parents are over 30 years old, and possibly even your grandparents, aunts, uncles, teachers, city councillors, and any number of other people that impact your life. You seem to be implying there's something wrong with them living that long -- or maybe that after 30 they...
You have something against people who take enough care of themselves well enough to live to a decent age? Do you think it's better to shoot things up, like Incels seem to want to do, getting themselves killed (young) in the process? Or people deciding not to work strive to get better or learn...
And though Sanders is the longest serving independent member in Congress, I think it fair to point out that he did not try to run for President as an independent -- because he knew he would split the vote on the left, and hand the reins to the Republicans. He has caucused with the Democrats, and...
I disagree, very much in fact. This time around, voting one way might very well actually lost the nation its democracy -- and that will be almost insurmountably difficult to reclaim.
'Twas ever thus, and deliberately so. Even the Church, for most of its history, wanted to keep Christians' noses out of the Bible, in case they learned to read it, and interpret it!, for themselves. Just so is Trump and the Republicans: "Ignore the news channels, believe what we tell you -- it's...
Oh, yes! Absolutely. And it always will.
It's easier, I think, in Canada and Britain, where we don't get to vote for Prime Ministers (except those few who live in their ridings). We vote for individuals to represent us locally, and the leader of the party that wins the most seats overall is...
The potential downside to that, of course, is that if there really is a "greater of two evils" between them, if enough people take your approach, that one just might win. And that could be a very, very bad thing indeed.
