I don’t know how close it is to the white house, but i think that’s why he had all those cherry trees cut down.

and according to a 2018 Time investigation, ran a Manhattan-sized Tennessee cotton plantation where Black convicts picked cotton for no pay.

fuckin…what!!!

please tell me that was closed down in the 60s and 2018 was just when the article ran?

The primaries are over.

I voted for someone other than Turek but Turek won anyway.

So what happens now?

Turek is horrible in this regard, but I have to vote for him anyway because he wants to TRY to ban transgender care, emphasis on TRY while the other party wants to do worse.

Everyone needs to get this through their heads.

Go talk to american muslims who couldn’t vote for Kamala because she supported Israel.

Not voting perpetuates more harm than voting for the bad guy who is less bad.

Voting third party at this point in the election cycle perpetuates more harm than voting for the bad guy who is less bad.

THE FACTS ARE SIMPLE:

One of two people will win this race. There is no other outcome at this point.

This primary was decided by votes, not anti-bernie-level dnc trickery.

You have to vote for the one who will hurt you less or it will get worse than even this.

I hate everything about it, but this is very simple: at this point anything other than a vote for turek is a vote for escalating harm to trans people to levels even higher than what turek wants.

That is all there is to it.

Go vote.

Do not let this rhetoric stop you from turning out to vote.

That is what the people behind the machine want.

This should be a learned lesson at this point but people like Erin are somehow still getting spun up by propaganda and failing to see the simple, shitty, crushing truth here, which is that an anti-trans democrat who only wants to ban things because his donors tell him to is still more pro-trans than any other option we have at this point in this one race.

Knowing you need more calories and being able to choke down more of the only things you have that can give them to you are two completely different problems, and I’m not talking picky toddler syndrome here.

I don’t know if it’s physically manifesting psychology or a gut biome thing, but your body can message you in a way that makes swallowing the same food a lot more difficult to borderline impossible no matter your willpower. I imagine if you forced it hard enough, the same mechanism that generates non-genetic allergies could come into play.

Differing preparation is one easy way to forestall the physical reality that generates that reflex.

As someone who’s been cooking every meal with what is largely the same four to five ingredients for the past six months due to the economic situation here, I can say with confidence that varying preparation methods and spice profiles is key to thriving in spite of repetition.

Potatoes like the ones in your picture? Use them to make something akin to boxty: https://donalskehan.com/recipes/boxty-irish-potato-pancakes/

Unless you’re planning to make mash, though, you might benefit more from a method other than boiling your potatoes. Baking is far less effort and if you don’t feel like sticking them in the oven for an hour, you can microwave them for 6 minutes or so in a 1,000 watt microwave (if theyre still not soft, use more time).

What kind of bread are you working with?

Eggs, potatoes, cheese, and “bread” (traditionally tortillas, but wheat flour is wheat flour) are primary ingredients for a breakfast burrito. Splash of cumin, pinch of paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt (maybe a tiny pinch of chili powder, cilantro, oregano, annato, and coriander if you have them, or lime juice, or tomato) if you can squish the bread flat and warm it in a pan a little you can slightly crisp up one side for texture and make an improv breakfast burrito sandwich.

Or even

Japanese https://www.kaveyeats.com/hokkaido-potato-cheese-dumplings-chizu-imomochi

Kitchens have been known to make potato cheese dumplings. Make the innards and serve as a spread on pan-fried (low heat) bread if you can’t make the dumpling exterior. (Edit – just saw that you said you’re from an eastern european country and I just recommended dumplings. LOL. That’s like asking an american if they’ve ever eaten a hot dog. I feel a tad silly. )

I’m sure someone has reccomended a Potato cheese omelette, but you can do those lots of ways, from a souffle omelete (separate eggs, whip the whites into stiff peaks, then fold in the yolks so it’s super fluffy) to gyeran-mari type rolled omelette https://www.koreanbapsang.com/gyeran-mari-korean-rolled-omelette/

Got sugar? Tired of eating bread in bread form?

I’ll edit the post to add more if I think of them, but I’m not awake yet.

Edit – just read your comment about the sugar tax. Boo :(

And about boiling being cheaper. (which is weird to me because boiling water is one of the most energy expensive methods of cooking when i go camping, but that might be due to wind, and as you said, circumstances are different in your area of the world, so boiling it is )

I saw rapeseed oil mentioned, got any other ingredients handy that you’re willing/able to use without causing family strife?

Even seemingly minor ingredients can make a big difference.

I’ll see what I can come up with for ideas.

Reminds me of the lyrics to the Wheeler Walker Jr. Song “Family Tree”.

any nation without slaves has the right to invade a slave state and free the slaves.

If you believe that’s objectively true then I suspect you need to ask yourself “why aren’t governments everywhere banding together to obliterate the actual slavery going on inside their borders?”

Those discord user account compromises and social media accounts asking for gift cards to avoid releasing your personal whatever aren’t legitimate businesses and the people performing those actions for them are not free to quit or even leave the buildimg they “work” in.

Okay, you could maybe argue that’s one-off tourist kidnapping by criminal parties at scale, but then we have blood diamonds. How is it they still exist?

Vegas hotels getting regular visits from cops as the drugs wear off early and the occasional girl escapes from the room she’s being held in, the fact that the superbowl is the world’s largest human trafficking conference, large portions of haiti under the current regime, slavery is EVERYWHERE and whoever is feeding you that line and placing the onus at a governmental policy level is trying to distract you from reality and hand-wave away anything that doesn’t line up with their own agenda.

The world banded rogether to eliminate CFC’s because of the ozone hole.

It’s clear we CAN all cooperate, so I posit you should be asking yourself: when reality doesn’t line up with the convenient point-proving “statements of fact” someone is pushing your direction, what does someone stand to gain from misrepresenting reality with quotable sound bytes?

They’re legally mandated to have a table for every type of nutrient ( fats, trans fats, carbohydrates - split into subcategories of carbohydrate and carbohydrate sugars, salts, etc) in every packet of things sold as a Edible Product in which it has 2 rows - in a serving, v daily recommendation.

Ww have all of that in America as well. I had a great deal of confusion on this subject until the specific definition of one of the words involved was given to me. The problem in discussion here isn’t labelling, or even ingredients, the problem is what’s DONE to the ingredients before they get in the food. While some degree of processing happens to most food (Chickens are deboned, corn is nixtamalized, tomatoes are stewed) the issue here is the extreme level of processing rhe ingredients go through. Corn and Cardboard are both high in carbohydrates and fiber, after all, cardboard is mostly plant matter rendered down and cooked/shaped, but one is food and the other has been processed so thoroughly that it’s not.

Many companies are rendering their ingredients so thoroughly before reassembling them that they’re resembling “food” less and less and not doing great things for us nutritionally even though they still measure at certain levels on the packaging. Maybe Jaffa Cakes retain more of the base nutrtion level of the flour in them than twinkies do, but it’s the same base processes occurring to both of their ingredients, just at different levels.
