What's also crazy is that there are people lining up saying "Surely that won't also happen to me."

Yeah, for sure. Regardless of legality, it was pretty clearly unethical.

Legally it might be a bit more complicated than that. The address on the mail would've been crunchyroll's office, and it seems like businesses are allowed to open any mail that is addressed (as in having the matching address) to them regardless of whose name is on it.

Absolutely normal. Kitty just likes to stay grounded.

The problem in this is that you can substitute either the Harris campaign or the Muslim voters for "they"

Lol! You're absolutely right. From my point of view, though, the democratic party is so fully captured and out of touch with actual issues that they're beyond being reasoned with, so it should almost go without saying who I'm referring to. And yes, I acknowledge how completely fucked that is.

They've created this absolutely monstrous situation where we always have to choose between letting people we care about get hurt, or a tiny glimmer of hope of something better, and even though I pushed to avoid the former, I'm fully sympathetic to both sides.

I personally agreed with undecided in principle and was sympathetic that Harris largely ignored them. The problem is that trying to leverage their position for actual good policy outcomes made for this nasty prisoner's dilemna situation where both parties chose the bad option.

I honestly thought that they'd eventually come around because of just how bad Trump was going to be for democracy, and moreover for the people they cared about. Sadly, they were so devoted to their game of chicken that some of their loved ones will pay for it.

I also don't think it's that callous to engage in a little bit of "I fucking told you so."

Most people I saw here were just trying to achieve the most favourable outcome, given the reality at the time.

Imagine just chilling in the dark, minding your own business, and some asshole comes at you with a light as bright as the sun, and you can't even close you're eyes because you don't have eyelids.

The "logic" is just billionaire talking points, because that's who holds the media's purse strings. They'll do anything to keep actual progressives out of power.

Whoa, good work! I think I'm going to have to go over this a few times to grock how it works, especially the Φ(b) - Φ(a) bit. My stats textbook has a bit too much dust on it. ;)

Moreover, that's not how probability works in independent events.

It'd be like saying "I flipped coin A 1 billion times and got half a billion heads, so now that I'm flipping coin B 100 times, I probably won't get any more heads."

It should be fairly obvious that you can say the exact same statement about tails, and get a completely contradictory statement.

Za #4, Pepperoni Pizza (sh.itjust.works)

I happened across some store bought vegan pepperoni, and decided I'd do one of the most simple pizzas in existance: the NY style pepperoni pizza. It totally wasn't because I was lazy and it takes like almost zero effort.

My dough caught on the peel as I was shimmying it on to the griddle, so I kinda got this weird teardrop-shaped pizza. Oh well. (:

There's really just something very comforting about a basic-ass slice like this. It's not fancy or pretentious, just delicious.

So I've decided to make pizza every Friday this summer. This is #3, but I declined to post the first two because they contained a slightly controversial brand plant based meat substitute.

This one has vegan blue cheese, caramelized onions, button mushrooms, sun dried tomatoes, balsamic reduction and pear slices. I meant to add a bit of arugula, but I forgot. A little fresh basil probably would have been good too.

Oh yeah, I was going to have it last night (y'know, on Friday like I said) but some stuff came up so I had to delay a night.

Feel free to ask for any recipes or whatever! I generally follow Adam Ragusa's NY style pizza recipe, but he's not vegan so if you don't want to give him additional traffic, I can probably answer any questions you might have.

If you have any suggestions for my next pizza, I'd love to hear it! ^^

 
 

I've been learning to cook all sorts of Indian recipes lately. The samosa are store bought, cuz who has time for that. Everything else is made from scratch. I'll probably get around to makeing my own samosas too, some day.

Will post recipes if anyone is interested. ^^

NY-ish style pizza (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by Enkers@sh.itjust.works to c/veganhomecooks@lemmy.world
 

A riff on the classic NY style pizza. Obviously with all the extra toppings, and a cheddar style "cheese", it's not in any way accurate, but it's what I happened to have on hand.

Dough & Sauce:

  • Adam Ragusea's NY Style Pizza v2 [Content Warning: recipe is not fully vegan. It contains cow milk.]

"Cheese":

  • Smoked cheddar style vegan grating block

Toppings:

  • Red onion, mushroom, vegan sausage, fresh basil
