I do not demand evidence that Ruasel's teapot is not orbiting Jupiter. It's clearly not and anyone who thinks it is is a quack.

No, it's like comparing a minor gunshot wound to a much larger gunshot wound. Calling this a paper cut is a cruel understatement. They are comparable and you'll appeal more to voters if you admit it!

No, but it does say:

“The Biden administration’s latest asylum rule runs roughshod over our laws and treaty obligations, choking off a crucial lifeline for people seeking safety. It exacerbates chaos at our southern border, undermines the vital work of humanitarian and legal aid groups, and will result in wrongful deportations of refugees to countries where they face persecution and torture.

This is an abomination. It's just Trump's targeting of asylum seekers all over again. Yes, I was editorializing by calling it a crime against humanity (I think it is, but that's not the ACLUs position) but I was correct to call this a violation of international law. We have an obligation to asylum seekers that Biden is ignoring, just like Trump did.

I get it, Trump is bad and worse in some ways (I think being extremely stupid is actually a point in his favor because he fails at most of the shit he tries), but why won't you admit that Biden is also bad?

Let's not pretend small business greed is blameless.

Huh. Didn't think there'd been that many of us already. Neat.

  1. There is no "after the election" for the people in Gaza. If this war is ongoing by January they'll all be dead.

  2. Biden is already crushing us for protesting the war! Trump is late to the party.

Protesting against Biden’s Middle East policies is basically kids threatening to run away from home if their parents don’t buy them what they want.

They're grown adults choosing to be violently beaten by cops and vigilantes for their beliefs. Have some fucking respect.

Of course Biden is never going to say this because, again, he’s a politician and has a public image to keep, but he could literally reply to said protestors “Or else? You gonna let Trump win and do worse? Yeah right, now shut up and vote for me”, and they would have absolutely nothing to answer.

You're contradicting yourself.

He's a politician and has a public image to keep because he can't just say shit like that, because he's not actually invincible. Your cynicism is understandable, you've convinced yourself there's nothing you can do so the guilt doesn't eat you alive, but the truth is that Biden is vulnerable to public image because he still wants to be reelected. If he really believed that he was going to lose because of his support for genocide then he would change his policies. He can be pushed. You refuse to try because you're scared.

Well after so long there's nothing left of the fragile silicon storage mediums, so as far as we can tell civilization basically ended in the late 90s as everyone moved to the mysterious ".com" which we assume to be a euphemism for death.

There won't be any people in Gaza left to kill by 2025 if Biden doesn't stop the genocide.

That's your fault

Sure, they could get bombs and ammo elsewhere, but we're the ones with the hardware and we're also the only country that can supply Israel at the volume they need. No one else can make bombs as fast as the US and Israel's own officials have openly said this. Also? Where the fuck else are they going to get $18 billion in F-15s? Why don't you seem to know this stuff?

That doesn't even get into the way the US has been protecting Israel from Ansar Alla in the Red Sea and has pledged to protect them from Hezbollah if they invade Lebanon.

 

Carmelized onions and garlic, cubed potatoes, bell peppers, and egg substitute; topped with hot-sauce, with a cup of white chai on the side.

Just a simple chili made with four tomatoes, one onion, half a bell pepper, a three chipotles in abado sauce, a clove of garlic, a couple tbsp of chili powder, a tbsp of oil, and then topped with nooch and air fried kidney beans.

I think I'll spring for mango or pineapple next time.

 

And here they are ready for action

 

Did you know soy sauce Top Ramen is vegan? Maruchan isn't so don't get em confused!

The greens are raw sweet peas and green onion.

I've been slowly adding more and more veggies through experimentation, but now I'm at the point where I either need to use bigger tortillas or just be more picky about which veggies I want 😅 this is the configuration I'm using right now, though in the summer I like to use avacado instead of sauce.

I heat the tortillas in a pan with a light coat of walnut oil and black pepper and assemble my fixins in the pan itself.

Sauce is also homemade! I save all the vinegar from pickled jalapenos and then mix that with equal parts coconut oil in a heated pan, then combine it with whatever seasoning I'm feeling like during that batch (rn I'm using nooche, though sometimes I go for an onion sauce or mustard). It's not super precise so there's no recipe, I've just got a feel from experimentation.

Also the fake-on bits are actually a cheap local veriety I've found. Basically just smoke and salt flavored crunchy soy chips.

Once I'm done, I pack up my chopped veggies to do this again in a couple days. I usually make four at a time every two days, and these are my pre-shift and mid-shift work meals. Served with a thicc pea protein chocolate drink.

 

And you all told me the blue maga border bill that Republicans rejected was 4d chess.

 

Kidney beans and rice with taco seasoning, caramelized onion and garlic, and I found out I can get dried habaneros near me! Definitely growing those this year, I forgot how good they are (haven't had any since before the pandemic 🥲 )

Also that Perrona sauce is... okay. It's really sweat, throws off everything. Also not nearly as spicy as I was hoping! It's a cool color, you can't really tell but it's actually green, but it just didn't hurt me the way I like 😌

 

Pintos and white rice seasoned with cumin, cayenne, garlic, nooch, salt, msg, walnut oil, and then served with taco fixins on hard shells 💪

 

🥵

 

I used to think I didn't really like beans, but when I got an airfryer I decided to see what they'd be like if I cooked them differently. Amazing~✨

Smaller beans become a delicious crunchy topping or filling, highly recommended, but what's really interesting is those huge butter beans. They're disturbingly similar to chicken breast when cooked this way, so I cooked up some white rice, cut up some ice cold broccoli, and fried up some butter beans 8 minutes with walnut oil at 400^o^ F

And that's it! Super simple but so so sooo good.

 

In Khan Younis, many of those taking flight on Monday were already displaced from other areas. Abu Mohammed told Reuters it was now the third time he had been forced to flee since abandoning his home in Gaza City in the north.

"Why did they eject us from our homes in Gaza (City) if they planned to kill us here?" he said.

At a home in Khan Younis that was struck overnight, flames licked the collapsed masonry and grey smoke billowed out from the rubble. A child's stuffed toy of a sheep lay in a pile of dust. Boys were picking through the wreckage. Next door, Nesrine Abdelmoty stood amid damaged furniture in the rented room where she lives with her divorced daughter and two-year-old baby.

"We were sleeping at 5 a.m. when we felt things collapse, everything went upside down," she told Reuters. "They told (people) to move from the north to Khan Younis, since the south is safer. And now, they've bombed Khan Younis. Even Khan Younis is not safe now, and even if we move to Rafah, Rafah is not safe as well. Where do they want us to go?"

 

The end of the article jumped out at me:

The Palestinian health ministry said 40 patients died on Tuesday, after five days without the fuel needed to power generators that fed dialysis machines and other vital medical equipment. The hospital had also run out of clean water, and doctors said they were subsisting on dates to survive as food supplies dwindled to nothing.

Corpses were piled in front of the hospital, with staff too terrified to move between buildings. The UN’s office for humanitarian affairs said staff at al-Shifa, for decades the linchpin of Gaza’s medical system, had begun preparations for a mass grave to entomb 180 bodies in front of the facility, as there was no way for them to leave in order to bury the dead.
