What part of you relates to me?

spatch was not working this evening and I finally had some energy left, we cooked together for the first time in weeks. We had a pair of pork chops which we seasoned with pico fruta, briefly pan-seared, and then slathered in a dark, sweet, especially high-Scoville variation on helljam to finish cooking in a tightly foil-wrapped baking dish along with some experimental pulled chicken: 10/10, would prepare all meats in similar juicy, heat-rich but not obliterated fashion. We made cheese grits to accompany. We may be approaching the event horizon where I learn how to cook collard greens. Please enjoy some links.
1. In praise of a restaurant I want to revisit: "I spent the night at South Street Diner, Boston's only 24/7 sit-down spot."
2. On damage and different kinds of anger: Martha C. Nussbaum, "The Weakness of the Furies."
3. Speaking of the uses of transition anger: "The Radicalism of Warren's Unapologetic Aggression." I am fascinated by this sentence: "Here was an assassin, bathed in the blood of her enemies, turning steady eyes to the TV camera and offering her talents to the public: For the small price of a primary vote, this assassin will work for you." I think it's the characterization of assassin when the pledge and I'll fight for your family would have made me think straight-up of mercenary knights, but maybe to most people it's the same thing.
4. It is entirely reasonable that a year of beautiful men should include Roddy McDowall. I still think that white-and-gold safari-jacket ensemble he's wearing there in his first appearance as Jonathan Willoway suits him much less well than the eventual black leather jacket of his regular costume. It's a really good jacket.

My experience is primarily with spinach and chard, both of which I do a bunch of things with. We don't have a pressure cooker, so I suspect collards would be the pot route.

Otherwise, we make a variant of the Kenyan dish sukuma wiki. Sauté collards, onions, and tomatoes. I add beans and sometimes frozen corn, instead of making ugali. Or one can use grits, something that you already have. I got that from a book about Kenyan marathon runners. It's apparently pretty common there.
