I'm on the budget plan with Commonwealth Edison. I just got an email saying that my "budget" amount for my next bill is about 18% higher.

Here's my usage for the last two years.

Cuba has been working on a protein based vaccine, which has been shown to be actually pretty good. (Of course, it has not gone through the same "peer review" and data analyses at others.)

Seems like he is eating about one can a day. I did a quick look and it appears that one can is about USD $25.

More expensive than I thought for one day.

I just love watching your heads explode.., lol

Neither one of you have figured it out yet - you think it's the democrat party of 1950 you're in.....

Get ready..... if there's a country still here after 2 more years of the dumbass you democrats installed, I'll get to watch you have a 4 year long Trump seizure....

Pffftttt … didn’t even bother to photoshop a white flag atop the tower.

@Renauda said in Ukraine poll:

Sounds crazy, but those old communists in Beijing have an Achilles heel called the sovereignty of states. China recognises Ukraine’s sovereignty, work on it.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/02/24/ukraine-china-russia-invasion-reaction/

That article suggests that China is “surprised” that the invasion actually happened, and that China is denying that it “supports” the invasion. China did not tell its citizens to leave Ukraine ahead of time. It mentions that there are around 6000 holders of China’s passports stuck in Ukraine. And of course, the CCP concocted a bunch of rhetorics blaming the USA.

@Jolly said in Now CNN says Romney was right:

Gonna be hard to sanction Russia, when they are one of our major suppliers of oil. Either number one or two, IIRC...

These data are only up to 2020.

Perhaps @Renauda can comment.

More here:

The following ten countries are those that the U.S. imports the most oil from per day based on April 2020 numbers. Numbers are in thousands of barrels.

Russia (408)
Colombia (277)
Ecuador (176)
Iraq (140)
South Korea (133)
Brazil (104)

Maybe this is what I remembered...

VAERS is a mess, but we need some accurate data.

Maybe Joe needs to crack the whip. If the VP will let him borrow hers.

@Axtremus it came across a site I looked at. I didn't realize the tweet was that old.

But, otoh, I'm still writing 2021 on the few checks I write these days.

Tucker Carlson is not “pro-Putin”, he is just “anti-anti-Putin,” according to this op-ed:

https://www.politico.com/news/magazine/2022/02/23/tucker-carlson-goes-it-alone-putin-00011141

Putin, Carlson explained, has never done him — and by extension — the viewer, any wrong. Putin’s never called Carlson racist. Threatened to have him sacked. Never manufactured a lockdown-inducing pandemic. Never taught his children critical race theory or made fentanyl or attacked Christianity. So why does the Washington, D.C. establishment hate him so much?

He must be either native Luxembourg or has a parent from there.

Since @Kalus mentions it is only 20% German, it does not seem like a language that someone would pick up on random. LOL

According to Wikipedia, Mr. Crowther was born in Luxembourg to a British father and German mother.

OK, so tell him to take a minor in virtue studies as a fallback.

I went from expensive to cheap, similar house, half the price.

You went from DC Metro to the VA Peninsula…

Cheap

And NO TRAFFIC!

Woo-Hoo!

I made chicken mole tonight with Frontera’s red mole. It was delicious. I love mole, just don’t have the patience to make it. My step grandfather, who was from Oaxaca, made it for me when I was living in LA. Fantastic.

@Larry

I agree.

@xenon said in The ministry of silly walks?:

The soldiers are all a good 3 standard deviations taller than the average Indian / Pak guy as well.

Same with the guards at the DMZ border between ROK and the DPRK.

@taiwan_girl it is very good. The printer I am using can print .05 mm layers and when I tell it to print something 20mm, it usually measures within .05 - < .10 mm

Another left wing/democrat hyperventilating spleen rupture falls apart...
