Seattle•'A dream 42 years in the making': Ezell's Famous Chicken owner eyes nationwide franchiseEnglish
2·15 days agoTried it twice, and Ezell’s is two-for-two as the blandest, most sorry-ass chicken ever.
That headline is rubbish, so I assume the article is as well.
If I believed in God I’d simply know Trump is the antichrist, but it doesn’t matter. Trump seems to have absolute immunity for every crime, every scandal, every ghastly thing he says. Things have never and will never “look bad” for Trump until he’s dead, and if he dies while he’s President, rest assured JD Vance will be worse.

THE POLICE PROBLEM•Man shot by ICE agents was stripped naked and abandoned without medical care, his lawyer saysEnglish
3·1 month agoI read the article, didn’t find the excerpt, then searched via CTRL-F for both ‘clothes’ and ‘handcuffed’ and got nada — six hours ago, but it’s there now. I envision hot, loud arguments over censorship at the <i>Times</i>, but more likely it was just a glitch.

4·1 month agoI do not find the paragraph about cutting off Hernández’s clothes, taking pictures of him, then leaving him handcuffed and naked. Cut from the paper’s coverage after initial publication?

News•US Treasury plans to put Trump's signature on new paper currency in first for sitting presidentEnglish
2·2 months agoMight tucker out after a few months, but I’ll at least start by checking every bill at the bank and asking for exchanges. “Give me currency without that scumbag’s signature, please.”

News•Trump relied on unverified intelligence to blame Iran for deadly school strikeEnglish
11·2 months agoThe Guardian is a bit better than average, but this “exclusive” is the same media bullshit seen everywhere — the pretense that Trump is a serious politician with serious thoughts and a serious agenda. He’s not, and the pretense is preposterous.

World News•Man in Michigan synagogue attack lost family members in Israeli airstrike in Lebanon, official saysEnglish
11·2 months agoWhen a foreign nation drops bombs that kill your family, the proper response is to write a letter to the editor, or perhaps boycott products from the nation that killed everyone you love. I simply can’t understand why this guy didn’t write that letter and announce his boycott. So illogical.

Honestly, and insanely, the best fried chicken I’ve found around Seattle is takeout from Saar’s (bargain priced on Mondays and Fridays). Used to beg for better recommendations, but now it’s too late cuz I’ve gone vegetarian.
