My wife got me the Tasting History cookbook for my birthday a couple years ago and I’ve been cooking my way through it. I made this recipe a couple months ago and it was truly fascinating! Between the beets, the lamb, the coriander, the cumin, and the arugula, it was a flavor profile truly unlike anything I’ve ever eaten.
It really put the variety of food and flavor throughout history into perspective for me.
Hey pal, you just blow in from stupid town?

By the way, the administration is currently 0 for 27 on voter roll lawsuits. Including swing states like Georgia, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. Not all the states are going to capitulate.
Saw these guys at Riot Fest and they killed it, I just wish their set had been longer than 30 minutes!

This right here. If polls are purposely inaccurate it’s not to sway one side or the other into voting or not voting, it’s simply to keep up engagement. And close polls keep people engaged.
It’s an ad for two different companies?
The last sentence is all you needed.

3·2 days agoGetting that little corner piece is a great sign of respect in my culture (Chicago). Often reserved as a reward for the courier of the pizza.
As a Chicagoan, I have strong opinions on pizza and now you’re gonna hear 'em:
Looks delicious. All styles of pizza are awesome. The world is big enough for all of them.
Thank you for your time.

You’re basically describing a muffuletta which is delicious.
And thin crust pizza is commonly cut into squares, also delicious.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•It's pretty easy to roast those cousin-fuckers
02·2 days agoThere are 28 million Black people in the South, give or take depending how you define the South, representing ~60% of the Black population in the US.
Black Americans make up ~15% of the voting population and more than half of eligible Black voters live in the South. They vote Democrat at upwards of 90%.
Deep Southern states have disenfranchised huge swaths of the Black population through various methods of voter suppression, including gerrymandering, going back to the 19th century and continuing until present. Creating white conservative majorities in state legislatures has been a multi-generational effort by conservative politicians and media that has been largely successful and resulting in the environment we see today.
The point of all this is that the South is not, at least in theory, as solidly red as it appears. I see many Democrat voters and white leftists say that we should just abandon the South and focus on swing states, when in reality many of those states could be swing states. And I think we’ll see that in the next week with Black voter turnout surging hugely in the South, especially among young Black voters.
Keep clowning on white racists though because they deserve it.
