Huge surrender. Made America lose again.

It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday […] it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.

I don't even want the egg anymore I just want to go back to the way my life was before this happened

Other people said some of this but I'm going to put it here for easy grokking:

  • Use old eggs if you can.
  • Pinch of salt in the water helps heal cracks in the egg shells so they don't always spill out into the water.
  • Put cold eggs directly into boiling water. This means that you should make sure you achieve a rapid boil before putting eggs in.
  • Put boiled eggs directly into cold water, either by pouring cold water on them or by moving them into an ice bath.
  • Smack and roll the eggs on the counter, then peel.

I boil eggs every day for my family and this has been a tried and true method for us. It's solved all my egg peeling sorrows.

Denmark, Netherlands react to Trump's DEI ultimatum

I love that this article expands DEI into diversity, equity, and inclusion. It's important to remember that diversity, equity, and inclusion are not primarily political devices, but a set of moral ideas meant to improve human wellbeing and harmony. DEI is used as a political device by people who are not driven by a desire for human wellbeing.
