  "...WE AREN'T PORTLAND LIBTARDS". Too bad, huh?

  At 7:40 a.m. Wednesday, federal judges in the Western District of Washington swore in former King County Superior Court judge and federal prosecutor Roger Rogoff as their pick for U.S. attorney. Fifty-four minutes later, President Donald Trump fired him. Rogoff, who recently resigned as director of the state office of independent investigations, formed to investigate police killings, is now the rope in a tug-of-war with the Trump administration. The district’s 17 sitting federal judges began...

  Beef jerky is a good one if you make it yourself, but the commercially available options have a lot of sugar.

  They don't even have to be privatized. Some municipalities in the US require a "beach tag". I lived on a barrier island growing up, and we had to buy ours every year, or go to the beach two towns over where it was free (...except where it was privatized).

  After being used to mbin (and previously kbin), I can't stand lemmy. Better layout, little bit better visibility into activity, reasonable federation/defederation choices with other instances, etc. Just try it out for a while.

  It's not much better once you get into the workforce. Unfortunately. And so much of the misogyny is invisible to men until it's pointed out to them explicitly. But I agree: If you believe that members of the opposite sex should not be permitted to be working, you should not be permitted to work outside of occupations which are necessarily restricted by sex. Similarly, if you don't think think you should have to work with brown people, disabled people, foreign people....

  Everybody likes to bash on the tech companies--and they behave horribly--, but really that largely because they make such insane money right now. This has been a thing in other industries and still is. Look at Walmart. Tech is just the new big thing distracting from the capitalist system being the problem.

  It's not the L. Where I'm from, the vowel sounds are different. Cock - like the O in "box". Caulk - like "aw", as in "dawn" (it is worth noting that much of the US has been losing the "aw" sound in that word, so that's probably why I'm the odd one out).

  You should introduce your son to Korean soups/stews. If he likes miso soup that much, he'll find some favorites in Korea as well. I'm especially partial to spicy doenjang jigae (a Korean miso stew--you can mostly use the ingredients recommended to add to the broth as suggestions and use whatever you like because it's all about the broth). This is very similar to how I make it except that I use packaged dashi and usually use shellfish and leafy greens, sometimes noodles (udon or dan...

  TIL Canada has small blocks of tofu. I've bought tofu in the US and in Japan and the standard block is the same size in both (approximately--400g in Japan; 14oz in the US). Can vary slightly by brand and it course smaller options are available, but that's the usual size for at least those two.

  Same reason humans aren't supposed to eat the meat of fish high up in the food chain too often, like tuna. Mercury poisoning specifically in that case.
