Having had the culinary experience of my life at #enoteca restaurant in @HotelArtsBcn in Barcelona, I want to share some images of the amazing, artistic foods served in this 16 course meal. This is the “Fig Bread”…/1
…this is the Autumn Cake….2
…this is “Autumn.” The leaves are handcrafted, edible, crunchy and sweet. Beneath them is sweet potato ice cream and the small balls are another ice cream…….
…this I can’t even describe. It is a raw fish dish, with circles of different sea foods and a small egg yolk in the center…
…last one. But there are 12 more. This is called the “Padron and Orange Moment” which again is a seafood dish.
…oh, and these all came with wine pairings. I don’t drink so I missed out. But I am told the combination was amazing.

Spending time in Barcelona is, in some ways, painful because I recognize how it exposes so many failings of the USA. No one cares rants about LGBTQ - gay, straight, transgender walk down the street, hand in hand, arm in arm. And then there are our failings built on the endless…1
…pursuit of profit. Waiters react in disbelief when we try to tip them - they are all paid a living wage. And I went to check the price of food at McDonalds and guess what! Food about the same price. Which OF COURSE is true because more people can afford to eat McDs and…2
…despite the wages, McDs knows if they charge the GOPs fantasy $16 for a Big Mac they will lose all their business. Profits are just a bit less and the people happier. When we mentioned what waiters are paid in the USA and why everyone tips, the tone of disbelief is universal…3

GOP attacks on Christian Walker are absolutely grotesque and says far more about the sociopathy of the party than it does him. Leaving his mom, physical abuse, hidden kids, ignoring the family about not running - Christian stayed silent. Now, with the abortion, he exploded.../1
...in anger. It seems like everything just finally hit overload. This is the kid whose mom stared down the barrel of a gun held by his dad! The *right* thing to do is to push the "Herschel is not the man he used to be and asks forgiveness from his family for his past" not.../2
..."How *dare* this spoiled brat get angry at his dad for things we don't know about! Doesnt he know rich people need tax cuts and women need to have their health autonomy taken away?!!" And remember how we're not allowed to comment that Baron T is tall because it "kids are...3

People are asking what I saw in the civil case that jumped out. A few delicious tidbits:…here, if Trump doesn’t list these supposed outside professionals on his witness list, he’s doomed….
…here, the Mazars accountant’s jaw drops when he hears of the difference between valuations in two sets of books….
….more on lying to Mazars, except for that one time when they sent both sets of books by accident….

We all pretty much knew what the appeals court would do, trump judges or not. These judges sit on court of appeals. They may be conservative, but they are real judges unlike Cannon, who is a non judicial partisan in robes. But boy did they slam her. She erred on jurisdiction:…1
…she erred in deciding that her discretion is boundless, and can ignore law and facts….2
…she erred by incorporating arguments that Trump made no attempt to prove, and even if he had tried, it would have made little difference….3

The last 2 days:

Texas: a court stopped the state’s 3d try to lock up parents of transgender kids & force them into foster care. A small town incurred $250,000 in cost by taking the 2nd lowest bidder to underwrite its municipal bonds because Citi doesn’t do finance companies…1
…that manufacture military weapons for the general public, like the gun that was used to slaughter children in Uvalde. And a man got angry at a driver in the car next to him, so at the next stop light, he took out his gun and shot him.

Meanwhile, Florida sponsored a sadistic…2
….undertaking, scooping people up from San Antonio who are *lawfully seeking asylum in the United States,* telling them there as “a present” and “jobs and housing” if they got onto a plane - without food, while still in need of medical treatment - which would take them to…3

I'm not going to get into @HawleyMO false depiction of America as being based on the Bible. Rather, I'm going to discuss his once-over-lightly concept of the Bible, which is wrong on so many levels it is jaw dropping. To avoid MAGAs going "liberals hate God!" everything I am...1
...going to write here comes straight out of books I have studied on individualism and the Bible. If you haven't read them, like @HawleyMO, learn something. If you have, happy to discuss. I will be relying on the theological teachings in Themes in Old Testament Theology...2
...Soma in Biblical Theology; Paul's Anthropological Terms; The Distinctive Ideas of the Old Testament; & Anthropology of the Old Testament. Also the writings of Dr. Carl Schultz, a theologian, pastor and Doctor of Philosophy from Brandeis. (Or you can listen to @HawleyMO)...3
