I’m also completely fed up with the contempt so many people have for the older female politicians who have been working for decades. There seems to be a paradox of younger women saying getting older is cool and wishing they had mentors, and then also telling older women that only young firebrands have the answers.

caffeinated milkshake I get at the coffee shop.

I feel like Asians having the highest average earnings is from a smaller sample size being skewed by Emma Stone.

The “shut the door behind me” immigrant never ceases to amaze and disgust me. (My grandfather was firmly in that camp, sadly.)

More recently, here in Canada, we had hundreds of Chinese-Canadians demonstrating against Nigerian refugees being housed in their city. The disconnect is stunning.

Spicy soups and broths in general are the solution to everything

The Grapes of Wrath. Yeah it's hokey and dated but Steinbeck is a literary version of Rembrandt, he finds the nobility in the meanest of subjects. Really his entire body of work.

“Someone else is trying to be a White Savior?!?!?!”

Filipina nannies know how to make those delicious Tagalog Cookies. 

I’m tempted to make the argument that it depends on your attitude towards sweet.  I like nuts to break up the sweetness.  I think the nutless throngs feel like they don’t want the sugar rush interrupted.

yeah but LOTR is a historical reenactment of a world without women or people of color and Black Panther is... very black.

No, it’s not always a microaggression. Some people are just fucking oblivious. And there’s also a cultural component. I’m Latin American and my people are pretty fucking bad about this shit too.

I eat tartare.

As said before, more surface area. That said, if you get a burgie ground in-house from a clean kitchen, you can get it medium-rare and have the juciest burger of your life.

Because beef is not an extremely prevalent historical source of the nasty organism that causes Trichinosis. The only way to kill that parasitic roundworm reliably is to thoroughly cook the meat to kill it or freeze the meat to kill it. If not properly and promptly treated this parasitic infection can be quite…

I currently have eight dogs. In my life, I’ve had and fostered literally multiple dozens of dogs, and not once have I brought one to a dining establishment, nor have I made poo-poo eyes bc a dog wasn’t allowed at a restaurant. Why? Bc I also used to work in food service, and know what a nightmare animals around food…

You saying you thought this was a singular experience struck me because I feel like so many people are in this boat and not talking about it. I’ve had a bunch of conversations with friends when I found out they were barely holding on for a period of time, and I had no idea. I went through a very rough patch myself and…

Okay, THIS sounds like something I might try. All the mucking about with the blender seemed like too much work. (Although I’ll use it to get the sugar dissolved.)

Freeze the ginger before grating? Wouldn’t that damage your microplane?
