Cooking for a big party tomorrow, I have a question. Please assist.
  • Hopefully it's thawed already because it will take two days to thaw all the way through in the fridge. 13 pounds is huge in the slow cooker, and should take about 13-14 hours on low or about 11-12 hours on high. Might be better off braising at 275-325 F in the oven, see this recipe for the general gist https://www.theseasonedmom.com/braised-pork-shoulder/. Should only be 4-5 hours this way and remain tender and juicy.

  • Hamas blindsides Israel with most serious attack in a generation
  • The Israeli settlers did this first in the forties when they invaded and colonized Palestine, indiscriminate violence was their M.O., so yes the first stone was thrown two generations ago. Not excusing the violence today, but it is not unexpected nor unprecedented by either side of this conflict.

  • New Study: 54% of American Adults Read Below 6th Grade-Levels
  • Yes, in general those who have attained college degrees are more likely to vote Democratic and those who have attained just a high school diploma are more likely to vote Republican. There is a clear divide where the more educated cohort of society leans Democratic.

  • What weird idioms/phrases does your language have?
  • Not mine but I had a Dutch professor who would say "it's like washing duck's feet" to refer to something that was a pointless exercise or wasted effort. I always thought it was funny but can't find anything on the Internet about it now so perhaps it's not very common.

  • Incandescent light bulbs are officially banned in the U.S.
  • I tend not to collect single purpose devices as they take up too much space in my limited storage, and a warm cabinet made by my oven light is good enough for some homemade sourdough which we make about once a week.

  • The US government is taking a serious step toward space-based nuclear propulsion
  • The biggest hazard is launching the payload, if it fails it falls out over a large area causing contamination of the nuclear fuel. The high orbit of the test vehicle lowers the risks for the other outcomes you identified, and they are planned to remain in these so called "disposal orbits" for many hundreds of years. Things can get very very far apart in space. The Russian recon satellites were operated in low earth orbit and their failures were well documented and even attempted to mitigate by the soviets, though they did fail with very bad consequences at least three times.

  • Lauren Boebert rages at Pete Buttigieg for problem House Republicans aren’t solving (Pilot Shortage)
  • Isn't it sort of a walled garden that way, an industry captured by and protected by this large barrier to entry which ensures a supply of jobs to those to ex-military pilots? Seems to happen in a lot of industries, artificially limiting supply to protect a pre existing privilege. Or am I just imagining things, I'm not familiar with the aviation industry.

  • Shoes that dont wear out and start falling apart after a year?
  • Have another look at Ecco's they're exactly what you're looking for. There are good models for 1-200 dollars that last for years and are great for putting city miles on. I got a pair about four years ago when I was commuting on busses and going through cheap shoes every couple months. They're still in great shape and clean up nice.
