@susanmyrland @bttrhmsndgrdns Definitely. 165° is USDA rule of thumb because salmonella is killed instantly at that temp. But slow and low is just as safe, and far more palatable. Here's a (very good) proprietary link, and a wonky science link within if you prefer. blog.thermoworks.com/chicken/chicke…

My dear friend #EllenCarey gets much-deserved attention from @NewYorker. Congrats, kiddo!! newyorker.com/culture/photo-…

@artnews “the show **recalls** Work of Art: The Next Great Artist” [emphasis mine]. Well, no, it’s just about identical in concept. But when @BrooklynMuseum participated, people were scandalized. How will it play a dozen years later at a Smithsonian museum?

In the end, the winning artist will be invited to exhibit an original piece at the Hirshhorn and will receive a $100,000 cash prize from the television network. artnews.com/art-news/news/…

Is #TwitterDown a lot of fluffy little blue feathers?

@annievain My kind of nerd!!

my boyfriend is “too sleepy” to watch The Sopranos but not too sleepy to recount all the English kings and queens from 1485 to present…

@MaxAndersonUSA @nytimes Thanks, Max. What a good time to be retired

@Welshmen @petersagal "zealous representation over zero sum confrontation"

@petersagal They left off the “Z”. Something and zealotry.

@jachristian Friends was not the point, BTW. A surprising side benefit.

@jachristian Up your alley, I'll bet: acmg.ucanr.edu/So_You_Want_To… I'm a Sonoma County Master Gardener. Many interesting new acquaintances and one new close friend. And many one-off interactions with smart people.

How do adults make new friends if they don’t have kids, don’t have a dog or don’t drink?

@JoshuaKosman @sfchronicle Cheers!!

Elon Musk Named Most Exhausting Person of 2022 newyorker.com/humor/borowitz…

@andrewstepner @nytimes Won’t shut up

@Artguy1 @nytimes What is your criticism of him?

I only know what is happening with the owner of this place from the @NYTimes, as I blocked him weeks ago. #GoodRiddance nytimes.com/2022/12/20/tec…

@petersagal Also uncompromising and uncompromised. The real deal.

@tomrichardson80 I have no influence there

I plan to try Post, once there’s room for me (they are swamped with sign-ups). post.news/?r=m0UYy

@ElonMusk stealing lines from the #SoupNazi: “You’re not special because you’re a journalist; you’re a citizen, so no special treatment … You doxx, you get suspended, end of story.”

@CollinRugg God no

Has the Twitter experience been better for you since Elon Musk took over?

@stealthygeek Shifting responsibility for bloated, gas hog vehicles away from those who buy them to people making an effort (however small) to change things. JUST GIVE UP, is the message here.

Stellantis alone, (the European parent company of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram) has bought more than $2.5 billion in carbon credits from Tesla. All those gas guzzling SUVs, trucks, and 800hp musclecars? Thank a Tesla buyer. They literally couldn't exist otherwise. 8/

Thread time. Here's the thing about @tesla. It's not a car company. Tesla is a company that has to make cars in order to sell its real product: Emissions Credits. Let me explain. Back in 2012, the EPA put out new, strident emissions standards for new vehicles fleetwide. 1/
