I have to imagine not having to deal with raw meat probably makes your job a hundred times easier too. Way fewer health and safety concerns when your ingredients aren't liable to turn into slabs of salmonella if you fuck up.

The Dems primarily ran on a "Bush is mismanaging the wars" line rather than an antiwar one. There was never a credible movement within the DNC to end Iraq or Afghanistan.
I am once again reminding people that the US also has a 240V electric grid, it just comes in from the street split into two 120V mains.
Edit: Our plugs are fucking terrible though. Literal goddamn deathtraps.
There's something really funny about a bunch of commie admins who want a serious leftist community, but rather than actually committing to anything like democratic centralism by gauging their communities' thoughts on things they instead unironically do the whole undemocratic shadow cabal 1984 meme by dropping half-baked ideas on everyone with zero prior warning or discussion.
And by "really funny," I of course mean that the admins should take their own advice and go touch grass for a bit, because this is by far the dumbest struggle session this site has had and that's saying something.
TC69 pulling the legendary bottle of E out of the hot couch like the sword from the stone.
You can learn everything you need to know about what America is as a country by comparing the total lack of a spine to prosecute Donald Trump for anything worth actually mentioning to the fact that the entire original leadership of BLM was brutally murdered in multiple incidents that clearly involved foul play only for there to be no meaningful investigations into their deaths.
Fascist billionaires get jerked off with velvet gloves by the state, while even the mildest of leftist organizers get suicided by six rounds to the back of the head in the burning wreckage of their car miles away from any roads they'd ever drive down on a regular basis.
I know it's popular to defend TLJ because the main detractors against it are all racist chuds who hate it for the stupidest reasons, but it's still a terrible movie. The plot goes nowhere, the world building is an affront to basic human sanity, and every character in the movie had a clause in their contract to grab hold of The Idiot Ball the second they came on screen and never let go of it lest any of them use their brains for long enough to negate the gigantic plot holes and stupid decisions permeating every scene. It had some great ideas that would have been fresh and exciting if they were executed better and weren't in the second movie of a trilogy that was never intended to have those themes (you can't really pull the "heroes can come from anywhere and be nobodies" theme when your entire trilogy is nostalgia bait glazing all the legendary figures from the OG trilogy in every other scene).
If you put a gun to my head and made me pick a best film out of that trilogy I'd unfortunately say TFA, with the caveat that it's just a significantly worse version of A New Hope that hadn't completely squandered its cast yet.
Online man-fluencers are turning legions of young men into Nazis by coopting their general discontentment at how their lives suck and how alienated and atomized they feel socially? Wow, sounds like the solution to this is to bully women into submitting to these brownshirt losers rather than address any of the root causes!
Working class people generally care that their rent and groceries doubled in five years without raises to cover the difference, yes. If you can't provide an answer to those problems as the incumbents, then it's hardly shocking when no one shows up to vote for you.
How do you purge 95% of a party and all of its power brokers and backers without just building a new party? It's not like the capitalists came in and hijacked it, they were always one half of the American single-party state.
They have the same exacting standards for comedy that they do food.
He is a finn, what do you expect from him?
Continued use of the swastika in his military and a stubborn refusal to acknowledge how many Soviets the Finns starved to death in Leningrad while working with the Third Reich, presumably.
Calling WoT pulpy is grounds for throwing hands outside a bookstore hosting a D&D session.
Fuck this meme is so good
This may legitimately be one of the most damaging moments in western hegemony moving forward. The one area where BRICS and other non-westerm blocs have not made major strides to dissociate from the west is Linux; even North Korea uses its own Linux distro domestically. A large part of the reason for that is that it's traditionally been seen as such a stable and generally apolitical kernel that the usual worries about spyware in your firmware isn't as big of a concern, so China and Russia don't have major concerns about leveraging the kernel for their domestic industries. Hell, Russian programmers have been massive players in open source development traditionally.
This is fire across the bow for Russia, and you can be sure some bureaucrat in Beijing is taking notes right now.
Even for Western propaganda this is the mother of all nothingburgers. China performed routine wargames in its own territorial waters and sailed a carrier group within 100 miles of its own mainland, and somehow this is worth an article on.
At least they're not claiming the CPC violated Taiwan's airspace by flying over their own landmass again.
People get unhealthily addicted to social media, in large part because it's designed to do exactly that. Everyone needs to remember that Twitter isn't real and that you should go do literally anything but doomscroll it on occasion, at minimum.
My guy, if you don't want to learn malloc just learn Rust instead of making every basic function of 99% of electronics take literal seconds.
NATO doctrine relies on air superiority, immediately falls apart when that's not true Still superior to their opponents though
Exactly. These peoples' opinions are incoherent because they're the product of a system designed to pump out incoherent, idealist workers. Do something to improve these peoples' material conditions, show them there's an alternative to what they've been stewing in for their entire lives, and a not-insignificant chunk of them will be in your Das Kapital reading group by the end of the year.
