Can confirm that fesenjan is delicious despite its, uh, unappealing visuals. (Gormeh sabzi and khoresh e karafs are some other really good Persian stews.)

Idk if I’m misunderstanding your point but isn’t that what they’re saying? That it’s literally in the Constitution that mandatory criminal labor is “slavery or involuntary servitude” (despite being legal)?
I don’t think he was involved in Despacito...?
Personally I like TOS a little more than TNG just cause I think the actors are better overall. People always say Riker gets better after he grows the beard, but he never stopped being incredibly grating to me, and it makes it hard to watch even the better episodes. TOS doesn’t have an equivalent character, really;…

I’m a Warren supporter, not a Bernie supporter, I didn’t say Warren had no policy plans to help Native Americans and I didn’t say she hadn’t apologized for the ‘fiasco’, and I didn’t know about the Standing Rock statement and I appreciate you bringing it to my attention.
I don’t think what you’re saying is at odds with what I’m saying so I don’t understand why you’re telling me to go to hell and calling me a wet noodle liberal. I am also a Warren supporter and also think that that blemish on her record isn’t disqualifying, and I believe you when you say that most Native Americans…
It’s not that they’re going to disqualify her, just that they think Bernie and Warren are very similar candidates but he’s better on those few issues and thus a better candidate. I suspect AOC and the others will happily support Warren if she takes the nom.
at a guess i’d say they don’t trust Warren on the basis that she hasn’t given any indication that she would be anything other than a status quo president when it comes to foreign policy and the military, whereas Bernie has always been vocally opposed to the military industrial complex (though how that would translate…
not always — i id as bi rather than pan but also like nonbinary people. I id as bi cause a lot of people who id as pan say that basically gender has no impact on who they’re attracted to, which is not the case for me; i’m attracted to people of different genders in slightly different ways and, to some extent, to…
Regular hugging is very different from surprise hugs from behind, hair-sniffing, and the other stuff Biden’s been criticized for
what are you talking about
He DID make the claim without providing evidence. In retrospect, there is evidence that the claim was correct, but at the time, criticizing his evidently baseless claim was valid.
Ok, you’re right in the sense that pinning the American notion of “racism” onto Swedish-style ethnic discrimination isn’t a great fit, in the sense that Swedish ethnic exclusionism also applies to European ethnicities (especially Eastern Europeans) who would be considered “white” in the United States, and in the sense…
Used to live in Sweden, have non-white family and friends living in Sweden, and can confirm that this is not true. It’s less racist than the U.S. in certain ways, but saying that “the public as a whole doesn’t even think in terms of race” is bullshit.
I mean this is about as negative an interpretation as you could possibly take of this interview. And people who act like they’re fucking Willy Wonka tend to actually be really intrusive and obnoxious and less interesting than they think they are, so personally I’m glad he’s not that.
The “Seriously?” read like an “am I seriously expected to believe this?” Based on recommend counts it seems pretty clear that most people read your comment the same way I did, not as a genuine expression of surprise. Sorry if I came off as pedantic, was not my intent.
Eva Ibbotson! She's great.
