Proud anti-fascist & bird-person
Get some dried wood-ear or shiitake mushrooms. Soak them in boiling water to rehydrate them, then use that mushroom-infused water to make your noodles. If you’re using shiitake, fry them up in a pan; wood-ears are ready to eat without doing so.
Throw some kimchi in there, too. It’s good for your guts.
I came here to rolly eyes at exactly the same line.
In the 2004 Osama bin Laden video, he vividly and explicitly describes where he got his primary motivation for the attack. This was his vengeance for the carnage he saw in the media coverage of the Israeli siege of Beirut, in the 1982 Lebanon War, where Israel was helped by the United States. Other motivations were published in the 2002 Letter to the American People, in which he said that al-Qaeda’s motives for the attacks included American support for attacking Muslims in Somalia, supporting Russian atrocities against Muslims in Chechnya, supporting the Indian oppression against Muslims in Kashmir, condoning the 1982 massacres in Lebanon, the presence of US troops in Saudi Arabia, US support of Israel, and sanctions against Iraq. Bin Laden and Ayman al-Zawahiri asserted that Israeli repression of Palestinians during the Second Intifada was the immediate cause that forced Al-Qaeda to launch the September 11 attacks.
The vice president’s pose as an enforcer of chivalry and rectitude in our politics is ludicrous on its face, given his apologetics for Donald Trump’s nonstop vicious personal smears. But this episode is of interest for another reason: El-Sayed’s stance articulates a bigger point about Vance’s craven compromises with the MAGA coalition’s racist and white nationalist elements that is 100 percent correct.
This is a great piece.
Caves of Qud runs great on my phone through GameNative and has solid controller support. I added an extra LT button to cycle stuff with LT+d-pad. I Highly recommend it if you like traditional roguelikes.
I don’t mind superhero movies, but I don’t see the need to slog through another formulaic cash grab.
Many privately admit they’re stuck in an uncomfortable spot: By running too far from Trump, Republicans risk alienating the MAGA faithful or the president himself, whose super PAC is sitting on more than $400 million they desperately need deployed to help them win key races. But if the candidates keep Trump close, they could be dragged down by the president, as the unpopular war in Iran has increased costs for Americans across the country.
That’s his grift money though. No way he spends it on someone else.
Black’s lawsuit argues the subpoenas exceed the committee’s authority by seeking private information unrelated to Epstein or any legitimate legislative purpose. It asks a federal judge to declare the subpoenas invalid and prevent the committee from enforcing them.
“The Committee is on a fishing expedition that oversteps its authority and completely ignores its responsibility,” Black’s attorney, Susan Estrich, said in a statement. “This is no longer about finding the truth about Epstein. It is about trying to destroy Mr. Black.”
He sounds desperate. Congress has the inherent power to investigate anything because of it’s oversight role.

Not to get all “no true Scotsman” here, but if you don’t want to tax billionaires until they’re not billionaires anymore then you’re not even close to being on the left in my book.
I think a lot about that time that he accused that diver who rescued those boys of being a pedophile and then defended himself in court by saying:
Mr Musk told the court this week the phrase “pedo guy” was common in South Africa, where he grew up.
He also tried to get an invitation to pedophile island and was refused.
And now he’s spending even more money to get pedophile protectors elected.
Makes you think.
I have to agree with cast iron pans, especially old ones. They’re versatile, durable, and I don’t have to worry about Teflon flaking off.
I’ve heard carbon steel is great too, but I love the properties of cast iron so I don’t feel the need to get anything else.
It’s a fun series. It doesn’t take itself very seriously at all, but it has a lot of heart.
If you go in expecting a cheesy time then it’s great.
A VGHS gif in the wild? Nice.
Paxton isn’t going to debate Talarico, I guarantee it.
He’s more chickenshit than a henhouse full of lettuce.
Tangentially related: I put GameNative on my phone, and Caves of Qud plays great through Steam using the same FEX translation layer that the Frame will have. What an awesome game to always have on me.
Christian Nationalists are the most insufferable blowhards you’ll ever regret meeting.
He must hate people with fit legs?
I loved the game partly because of the lack of fast travel, which is not my usual attitude for an open-world game.
They made it actually interesting to get around and fun to figure out how to proceed after a hard won fight.
It’s strange to me that people would find that inconvenient, because it seems to be half the point of the game.
We have tons of people who want to live in the US. Birth rates are not an issue unless you only want white children.
Ted Cruz doesn’t support democratic elections in the US, why would anyone trust that pigfucker saying that he supports them elsewhere?
He tried to overthrow the duly elected government.
They should have played something from Puccini’s Madame Butterfly, wherein a tacky American scumbag travels to an island to engage in child prostitution.
