What is currently happening to TSA agents and travelers is flat-out shameful. Our elected leaders have failed us on the basics. Both sides need to set aside partisan differences and stop this madness. There are 1,100 TSA agents in Houston. The average wage of a TSA employee is $20.77 per hour, or about $830 per week. I would be more than willing to sponsor one TSA worker’s salary each week until this craziness is resolved. If 1,099 other businesses in the Houston stepped up, we could solve this crisis.

@archeohistories It was a little known legend during LBJ's presidency, that he was so proud of his masculine endowment, that when bratwurst or hotdogs were served or accompanied a meal, he insisted the kitchen serve his plate with a weiner, or sausage twice as long and girthy as the guests. TMYK.

The White House has been home to 45 presidents and the kitchen has served all of them. What that kitchen has witnessed across 200 years of American history is one of the most bizarre, revealing, and occasionally deeply depressing food stories in the country. Abraham Lincoln barely ate. His law partner William Herndon documented that Lincoln could go an entire day on an apple and a handful of crackers and simply not notice. Mary Todd Lincoln reportedly begged him to eat at meals, watching her husband push food around a plate with no particular interest while conducting the business of a country in the middle of a civil war. The White House kitchen staff during the Lincoln years kept meticulous records and the president's daily food consumption appears in them like a footnote. He ate because he had to, not because he wanted to, and on the days when things were going badly he apparently forgot to do even that. Franklin Roosevelt had the opposite problem. He loved food deeply and passionately and for twelve years the White House kitchen served him meals so bad that he once joked the only reason he sought a fourth term was to come back and fire his housekeeper. Her name was Henrietta Nesbitt and Eleanor Roosevelt had hired her not because she could cook but because she was a friend from Hyde Park who needed a job after her husband lost his during the Depression. Nesbitt had run a small home bakery and arrived in the White House with no professional kitchen experience whatsoever. What she produced, according to the New Yorker, were meals so gray, so drooping, and so spectacularly inept that they became a Washington legend. The menus ran heavily toward liver, salt cod, prune pudding, molded gelatin salads dotted with marshmallows, and a preparation she called noodles and mushrooms with chicken scraps. During World War II rationing she stretched the meat budget with stuffed peppers and casseroles made from what she listed in her notes as meat tidbits. Visitors to the White House during the Roosevelt years reportedly ate before they arrived. Winston Churchill, who visited multiple times during the war, brought his own food and alcohol rather than rely on what the kitchen was producing. Franklin Roosevelt could not fire Nesbitt because Eleanor ran the household staff, and Eleanor, according to her own biographer, appeared to be using the kitchen as a form of passive-aggressive expression in what the biographer called a marriage of remarkable and labyrinthine complexity. Roosevelt won his fourth election in 1944 and died in April 1945. Nesbitt was finally dismissed by Harry Truman shortly after he took office, to the relief of every person who had ever sat at a White House table. Richard Nixon did not need a Henrietta Nesbitt to make his meals miserable. He managed that himself. Nixon ate cottage cheese topped with ketchup as a regular meal, a habit he inherited from his grandmother and adopted after a doctor told him cottage cheese would help him control his weight. The problem was that Nixon did not like cottage cheese, so he covered it with ketchup to make it tolerable. He admitted this publicly at a White House Conference on Food, Nutrition, and Health in 1969 and the response from the American food industry was immediate. The dairy lobby wrote to him praising the choice, and the ketchup industry wrote to suggest he try it on his cereal. Nixon cited his grandmother's 93 year lifespan as evidence that the combination could not be entirely wrong. The White House kitchen kept cottage cheese permanently stocked for the Nixon family from Inauguration Day onward, after a staff member had to drive around Washington on the night of the inauguration to find some because the kitchen had none. © Eats History #archaeohiatories

How is it possible these primitive monsters exist in modern times? More frightening is that they are multiplying like flies on dead meat, and will eventually take over and end the human race.

The Taliban no longer allows Afghan women to see with both eyes. They already required women to cover their entire bodies, leaving only their eyes visible underneath the burqa. But now even that is being restricted. Women are now only allowed to see with one eye! Eid Mubarak!

🚨 Michael Jackson was first offered to do an alien cameo in Men in Black, but he turned it down. Director Barry Sonnenfeld recalled that when Jackson first saw the original Men in Black in a theater in Paris, he actually cried. He told the director he thought it was a "weepy" movie, rather than a comedy. Sonnenfeld first offered him a cameo as one of the celebrity aliens, a common running gag in the franchise. Michael insisted on being a Man in Black agent instead, because his primary goal was to wear the iconic black suit and sunglasses. Sonnenfeld agreed, famously stating, "All that mattered to him was that he wore that black suit" On the day of shooting, Jackson reportedly arrived on set late wearing red pajamas. During the scene, where he checks in via a monitor from a location filled with penguins, he famously kept calling Chief Zed "Zeke". He even asked the director if they could change the character's name to Zeke just for him. After the 22-second scene was finished, Jackson sent Sonnenfeld a handwritten thank-you note on red paper, calling the cameo a fulfillment of a lifelong dream.

@RayQuantia @Shanahan81526 @CherokeeOwlBkup You use the same brine but then you need to put it in clean water and leech some of the salt out before cooking. The heavy salt is part of the brining process but you don’t want that level of salt in the final product.

@RayQuantia @CherokeeOwlBkup Because of the brine. I sometimes get a corned beef and soak it in cold water a few times. Then season with pepper and othe spices but no salt and smoke it.

For years, the reality of women’s professional basketball lived in a contradiction: world-class athletes, global stars, and elite competition—paired with salaries that didn’t come close to reflecting that level of excellence. That’s what makes this moment feel so different. The WNBA and its players association have reached a historic 7-year collective bargaining agreement beginning in 2026—and it doesn’t just nudge the system forward. It forces it to evolve. For the first time, the league is meaningfully reshaping how it values its players. Minimum salaries, which hovered around the $60,000 range in 2025, are set to jump dramatically into a new tiered structure—ranging roughly from $100,000 to $150,000 depending on experience. That alone is a seismic shift for younger players and those fighting to stay in the league. But the change doesn’t stop at the floor. Average salaries are projected to rise into the $250,000 to $300,000 range—a massive leap from the roughly $150,000 average in 2025. That kind of increase doesn’t just improve quality of life—it changes how long players can sustain careers, how they train, and how they plan their futures. And then there’s the ceiling. The league’s top “supermax” contracts—once nowhere near the million-dollar mark—are now expected to exceed $1 million for elite, qualifying players. For the first time in WNBA history, its biggest stars will be compensated in a way that begins to resemble their impact on the sport. Even team economics are shifting. Salary caps are projected to rise significantly, with some estimates suggesting they could surpass $2 million per team. That means more flexibility, stronger rosters, and a more competitive, better-funded league overall. And just as important as the numbers is the structure behind them. This 7-year agreement—with a 6-year opt-out—signals long-term stability while still giving players leverage in the future. It’s designed not just to increase pay, but to expand revenue sharing, strengthen financial security, and—critically—reduce the long-standing necessity for players to compete overseas during the offseason just to earn a proper living. Because that’s been one of the quiet truths of the WNBA for years: the season didn’t end when the games stopped. It continued in other countries, under different contracts, with added physical risk—because it had to. Now, for the first time, that reality may start to change. And that’s why this agreement is being called transformative. Not because it solves everything overnight—but because it breaks from decades of “business as usual,” where women’s labor in professional sports was undervalued, underfunded, and often overlooked. This is a re-calibration of worth. And after nearly 30 years of proving it, over and over again… the league is finally starting to catch up to the players who built it. © Reddit #archaeohistories
