Starting your holiday baking? Might I suggest this thread?

Some of you know I run a food blog & holiday baking is kind of my thing. I've included a roundup of all my holiday recipes below but come hungry.

From 12 days of Christmas cookies to cocktails, I've got it all.

This #SundayMorning , as the House prepares for a floor vote on articles of impeachment next week, we're turning our eyes towards the Senate.

Is there any hope that the GOP will conduct a fair and impartial trial based on the evidence?

(2) If obstructionist extraordinaire Mitch McConnell and Trump lapdog Lindsey Graham have anything to say about it, the answer is a resounding no.

Here's how impeachment in the Senate is supposed to work:
First, Congress investigates.

vox.com/impeachment-ex…
(3) Second, the House of Representatives passes by a simple majority articles of impeachment detailing wrongdoing. Think of it as a grand jury issuing an indictment.

Third, the Senate tries the accused.
Except we have a YUGE problem.
Mitch McConnell

Hey actors & actresses.

My 13 year old came out of his first high school theater audition in tears. He forgot some lines to his monologue & is devastated.

Can you tell him your worst audition story or give some advice?

He’s always loved theater & I don’t want him to give up.
Here he is as one of the leads in his middle school production of The Little Prince. I think it was hard to go from being cast as a lead to not even making the cut in high school.
When I asked him why this audition was so important, he said it was Richard III, his favorite Shakespeare play. He’s a serious Shakespeare nerd.

He’s bummed because the high school theater department does a LOT of musicals and this was his chance for this year to do a real play.

The Supreme Court has essentially condoned an invasive, medically unnecessary procedure that requires doctors to vaginally penetrate women in order to shame them.

Welcome to Gilead.
For the folks who don't understand how 1st-trimester ultrasounds work:

"Most often, this requires women to undergo an invasive transvaginal ultrasound, because this is the only way to display this information early in pregnancy."

For those asking exactly when a fetal heartbeat can be detected externally, it's usually after 6 weeks that the heart begins to beat and then it can't be heard outside the womb by a doppler until after 10 weeks.

Where are the #arrests?

I know a lot of people are pissed off that they're not seeing mass arrests after all the #proof that has been uncovered

I understand, trust me. I want to end the #DeepState as bad as anyone

Why should I #TrustThePlan? 🤔

I'll explain ☟
First I will get into the 'WHY', then I'll explain the timeline.

The Why:
I want what everyone wants, mass arrests around the #world, the entire #DeepState, gone.

The thing you have to ask yourself is, what will the outcome be? For every action, there is a reaction.☟
What would happen if Obama was arrested tomorrow? Civil unrest/war. #MSM has people lost in a #FalseReality, they will fight because they have been trained to think it's the right thing to do.

Things are slow played for three reasons. One, to do everything by the book. Two,...☟

So frustrating to #know the answer to the question of how to formulate that #TheoryOfEverything #scientists say is the biggest unsolved problem in #physics, yet they don't even want to look at it:

tuks.nl/wiki/index.php…

Wave-particle duality a #mystery?
What I've found is rather astonishing:

The #mathematics used by #Maxwell are inconsistent.

He left the magnetic vector potential field [A] undefined and decoupled from the #medium thus creating #MaxwellsHole, which introduced an unwarrented #gauge #freedom in the model...
It is this #gauge #freedom thst led to the #hack known as #Quantum #Madness.

Really, it doesn't take a PhD to figure out that when you believe particles can exist at two places at the same time, you have a mental problem.

CURSE OF KNOWLEDGE:
This is a powerful cognitive bias, and the one that's probably most responsible for you staying stuck in your dead-end way of doing things instead of breaking out.

What is it?
The mind's inability to remember what it was like to not know something.
At first glance you may think this is a relatively unimportant thing. Completely harmless.

But it's robbing you of your freedom. Here's how.

To understand, we're going to use an example from my life: Magic Tricks.

I'm a professional mentalist; I've performed in Vegas.
I know how the mind works, and I understand why the simple methods of magic are so powerful; they leverage exactly these kinds of mental hiccups. So, here's the example.

I do a trick, and you want to know how it works. You'll do ANYTHING. Pay me $100, even. Great! Pay up!
