Ravioli are dumplings but these are definitely not ravioli. As you say, drop dumplings.

Dumpling. Mix ricotta, flour, Parm, egg, salt and drop tablespoons of it into boiling water. Take them out when they float. Add sauce.

Frozen corporate meatballs

It was tasty enough

Corporate freezer meatballs. Reheated in an air fryer for a bit, cut in half and added to the pizza

I got dragged to a honey tasting recently. My wife fell in love with the sourwood honey. I might have to make some fennel seed infused honey as an affordable substitute.

Bottom crust is important.

If you like the flavor of fennel seed and you ever find a source for sourwood honey, I definitely recommend trying it.

If I’m cooking on bare metal, I’ll use some cornmeal or semolita flour. In this case I just use parchment paper. Zero stick.

Are you in the habit of listening to someone that is lying about who you are? There is no reason to reward someone who is arguing with a person they made up instead of the person they are talking with.

That was definitely the unspoken subtext of that comment. Still better than turkey bacon though.

It’ll taste more like bacon. Fat free vegan bacon.

I never said impossible. I said you decided a conspiracy was the more likely situation. I also never said Republicans are mostly gay. That’s your wording and not my position at all.

Okay, you did create a conspiracy theory. Thank you for confirming.

I’m sure it does and that the regular infrastructure is more than capable of handling them. But not one off extraordinary events.

Did you just invent a conspiracy theory where people are using VPNs to fake their location data to make it look like Grindr is having an outage?

Then you followed that up saying let’s be real?

Did I read your comment correctly? I don’t want to misinterpret it but that’s what it looks like you said.

Yet somehow, only GOP cons are a problem.

Hold up. I insist that my position be accurately represented because otherwise you are arguing with a person you made up instead of me.

Reread everything I said. My position is that this happens at every Republican related convention. Not that it only happens then.

Can you correct your framing of my position to be accurate so that I know we are on the same page?

I’m sure there have been DNC related crashes too. But there is no built in hypocrisy because the DNC isn’t trying to repeal gay rights. You know that.

I skipped the rest of your comment because there was so much bad faith in that one sentence that I could see we weren’t having the same conversation.

And 8pm Wednesday is peak time? Even in a city where that isn’t a thing that happens? It just happened to take place coincidentally right as the day’s event was winding down just like it always does during every Republican convention.

That’s a level of coincidence frequency that requires a conspiracy theory because it’s not statistically probable or possible.

As a veteran of the cell phone industry I can confidently say that’s not the issue. Maybe in the days 4G when capacity was only capable of 2000 to 4000 connections per square kilometer but with 5G the limit is in the millions and in an area like that it’s all fiber backbone to the MTSO. It’s not the network. If it was we would see Uber and others impacted and we don’t.

It’s not thousands of extra people on the local cell network. That argument fails completely and looks like grasping at straws.

That page measures uptime. Not lag or other errors.

I’m not part of its demographic. So no.

Sorry about not seeing LA. SF is there but at a totally different level, right?

The data says it’s true. Time after time. It’s not my narrative. It’s reality. Why do you need to say it’s not true? Why is it that Dallas is lit up like a Christmas tree exactly during the last hour of the scheduled event but not any other 8pm Wednesday in Dallas for a very long time?
