I like most choc. chip cookies so I’m sure I’d like them. It’s funny because our recipe goes against two of the things that one says. I prefer mine to get flat and crunchy. I also like using large milk chocolate chips.

Best chocolate chips I’ve had. I’ve been known to accidentally eat a bag of them.

Does anyone realize how hypocritical it is to beg the networks to call the election now that Biden is ahead by very small margins? Like, come on.

That’s amazing, great job!

Not small margins, though. It doesn’t matter what AZ does. It’s over.

They called it for Trump in '16 with much smaller counts than Biden has.

Well, its 2020, and Biden has just spent the last 3 days telling everyone to hold up and count the votes. Yes, we all suspect that those remaining votes are leaning a certain way, but it would still send the wrong message to the red part of America don’t you think?

Not calling it is allowing DJT to cause chaos and tout bullshit ‘fraud’ votes. They are granting DJT a courtesy they’ve never granted any other candidate, because he’s a dangerous sociopath.

White Zin is… not good. There are much better wines on the sweet end of the spectrum.

Funny anecdote that Trig might appreciate. I worked with this gal who, for a time, was a cocktail waitress at an Outback steakhouse near the Space Needle. They’d get these tourists in, inevitably from the Midwest. The wife would ask for a white Zin, or something like it. This was around 2010, mind you, so about 25 years after that stuff had it’s heyday. So she’d go to the bartender, who would pour a glass of white, add a splash of red, and a healthy dose of simple syrup. They always just loved it.

I agree with you, but it’s more the entire leader as a global embarrassment with a Twitter account they are scared to shut off.

Do you have a similar example from another presidential election, where they called the day the lead changed in the tipping point and where the lead was fractional percent with more than a percent of votes uncounted?

It’s clear from the Maricopa data that the Arizona call was premature, because it’s not correct to call a state that’s going to end with a 0.2% margin when 12% of the vote was outstanding.

If the Arizona call had been done properly, they might be a little less reluctant to call PA, but I still think they would be reluctant just on the numbers, without regard for the craziness of Trump or hus followers.

There is a bit of a difference in calling it with small margins when it is 93% reporting, and 99% reporting.

He is doing that no matter what. Calling it now actually strengthens that narrative with his base.

5902

It has more to do with… math.

His base doesn’t give a shit about facts. It’s not going to change now.

Indeed, they’re functionally living in a completely fabricated fantasy world with no relation to this one.

5905

Math based on what you believe the remaining votes are.

5906

Add Ajit Pai, and the post-Scot Pruitt EPA chief in there too (can’t recall his name)

5907

Is this your first USA election or…?

Also you know, you know no matter what happens heir dear leader and his base aren’t going to go peacefully. You know that right? You KNOW that right?

5908

We get to boot him too?!!! OMG YES YES YES
