It does, but it’s delicious. The got gravy melts the cheese curds and mixed with the crispy fries it’s a salty deliciousness. Great for drunk food, hangovers, and indulging.

I do not understand how the judges loved Gabri's poutine. Nothing about that was poutine. You can't substitute french fries for parsnips. And you need cheese curds and not 'crips cheese' !!! They dinged Nicole for her bubble waffles not being light and fluffy, they should have dinged Gabri's poutine for not being anything close to a poutine - not one of his ingredients was the correct ingredient!

Somewhere along the way This is Us turned into This is Randall (and Deja). complete with ending the series with Randall/Jack. It felt like Kate and Kevin were completely forgotten about - especially in the finale. We had numerous Beth lines but Sophie and Phillip barely appeared tonight. What even was the point in Kevin reuniting with Sophie? The show should have limited the flashbacks tonight. I would have preferred three minutes dedicated to flashforwards to seeing Kevin, Kate, and Randall’s kids/grandkids. We saw Jack and Hailey in the future but did we see any other kids in that timeline?

If Toby knew about the cocktail party before Kate got to SF, he should have let her know. He could have said "hey btw that weekend I have a work thing I need at my boss's that I need to be at. Are you cool with going or do you want to come next weekend". Simple communication. But he most likely hid this cocktail party form her, and he seemed to hide it in his explanation of the plans for the weekend too. "Fun stuff, art stuff, get gussied up and go to work! And then supper". Let Kate make the decision if she wants to spend her one of two nights at a work event with people she doesn't know instead of spending some one-on-one time with her husband. If Toby wanted Kate to fall in love with SF, he should have just shown her SF without plans. Go for brunch, drive around, maybe drive by the house if it was that important, but don't point it out specifically. Make it a more casual weekend. Maybe next time they will bring the kids.

No I totally agree, all of the adults should have done more to protect the kids in this family. The prosecutors who dropped the case, the officers involved, the Holts. Everyone. They are all guilty of endangering children.

There was a Facebook comment from her on Reddit, apparently they were set to go to trial and testify but prosecution dropped it. Edit: Link to the post

Wasn't the man they sent him to for "rehabilitation" after the truth came out about how he abused his sisters also found guilty of CSAM or something similar??

It's annoying but this is how those people make their money. The more relevant words they have on that page the higher their result will be on Google. Plus the more time you spend on the page the higher the engagement = more money. There are extensions you can install that will just make the recipe a "pop-up" on the page so you never have to see the preamble though! I feel like the chefs went into this challenge as Top Chefs and not Home Cooks. I am probably not going to make Gabe or Jamie's dishes but I will absolutely make Maria's. Maybe it's just me but when I look up recipes I tend to go towards non-complicated and delicious over a high end meal. I am not going to go out and buy banana leafs to serve a meal on. I want ingredients that are gong to be relatively affordable and easy to find that can be used in a few different dishes to make buying them worth it. Maria's was written poorly apparently but that is the type of recipes that work. "Throw these ingredients together and let it cook" over 19 ingredients and 30 steps.

JSYK - Kym is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns.

Matthew and April were never going to work, especially not after that rush of a marriage shortly after his wife died. IMO they only had April marry Matthew to explain her quick exist and to put an end to Japril and to pave the way for Jackson/Maggie. If April wasn't married off screen there would have still been hope for the audience for a Japril reunion. I stopped caring (and have only watched on and off) about this show when they fired Drew and Capshaw but came back for Jackson/April. My shipper heart is happy at the thought of them in Boston and potentially getting back together.

I work in a similar field in Canada. I always believe the best place for children to be is with their parents, as long as they are safe and happy. Removing children will always cause harm to children so it should be avoided at all costs. And if children can’t be with their parents, they should be with family. However the Duggars have hidden and helped Josh in the past and I’m not convinced they won’t in the future. So if the children have to go somewhere, I wouldn’t want it to be any of the Duggars. I’m not saying her brother will be successful either, just that he might try.

I wonder if Anna's brother won't try to petition for temporary emergency custody of the m&ms. I don't know anything about American law, but I can't imagine her brother will just sit by and do nothing. Especially with the history of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar not doing anything with Josh's previous behaviour.

So your issue is with the characters and not the story. There's a difference. And it's not heavy handed, turn on the news and you will see these exact situations happening in real life. If you think it's heavy handed or repetitive you're not paying attention to the real world. It's "repetitive" to you, but again, imagine living this daily. Because that's reality for the vast majority of Black people in America. Here's a thread (and you can read the quoted tweets as well) of various Black Twitter users talking about the most ridiculous reasons for why they were pulled over. I do agree that Grey's can be a bit heavy handed, but sometimes you have to hit people over the head with issues because they don't pay attention otherwise. A publishing prof once told me you have to write at a grade four reading level for websites because that's the reading level for the majority of Americans. I assume the same is true for TV sometimes, handle issues in the most obvious ways. Maternal mortality rates need to be intersectional. Yes the high rates are an issue, but they are especially high for Black women. I do think the show is building up to Jackson going about changing something, and I think we will see that in the next few episodes. The issue with Grey's Anatomy though is they have these Big episodes and then never mention anything ever again. Woke simply means: alert to injustice in society, especially racism.

If people are “exhausted” with watching shows and characters deal with the reality of being Black in America try to imagine how it is to live as a Black person in America. The show is 42 minutes and you can turn it off or mute it at anytime. Black people do not have the option to turn their lives off. If the show makes you think or makes you uncomfortable, good. If you’re bored by it, by watching Black characters deal with their very real experiences you might need to ask yourselves some questions about why that is. And to answer someone else, being woke will never end. Sorry you’re no longer able to watch shows that ignore racism and sexism. Everything in this episode has always existed, you’re just no longer going to be able to live your life ignoring it.

My university has a racoon problem. It's pretty much surrounded by trees/mountains and has automatic doors, so it was not uncommon to see them in the garbage cans in the hallways. So I laughed at Glen arguing with the racoons like he was familiar with them. I'm sad this show is ending soon. I have definitely liked it more this season without Amy than I did the last few with her. I think it hurt the show when they started focusing on their lives outside of the Cloud 9 building.
