Crappy weather and feeling like junk food thought I'd see what this flavor of Hot & Spicy I picked up tastes like.
Pretty good - there's some tartness to it and slightly late heat - like it was made with hot sauce incorporated.

Used a ⅓ of the can cubed up in a "trashy" noodle dish that's an occasional indulgence (next)

Deus,
@Deus@charcha.cc avatar

@SRDas I soak the noodles (WaiWai or Mama) in water till they're soft and then go about the usual steps of frying them with the ingredients. Most times using the flavor packs as a masala of sorts.

/Tip I learned it from Bhutanese friends (the soaking part) - college days too :D

I just had a conversation with a guy who said, “Yeah, well I’m a capitalist.”

So I asked, “Okay, how much capital do you have?”

Boy, oh boy, does that question put things in perspective. He became a caricature of an old Warner Brothers cartoon character, trying to compose himself as he fumbled for words, all while he avoided actually answering the question.

So I simply repeated the question. I highly recommend.

@MattMerk I he were American and replied you with, "I'm a communist (or socialist)" would be risky, no?

"The music industry has been silent on Palestine. Star athletes, so central to the Black Lives Matter movement, have largely been too scared to speak. Most of Hollywood has kept quiet. I know artists and athletes who want to speak up for Palestine but are correctly concerned that they would be putting their careers in danger."

Even if living alone, appreciate the effort friend puts when she sits down for a meal - serving each dish in a bowl/plate. For comparison, yours truly puts them all in one plate "...too much hassle and dishes to wash".

#Food #Cooking #Meat

Salt, beef soup, soup of mock tomato and brinjal, fried spring onions roots, boiled eggs, ginger, chillies, boiled fish served in a table.
Boiled eggs, cucumber, avocado, fried beans, post of (I dunno), cherry served in a table.

@LifeTimeCooking I suppose so. She'll continuously talk while cooking (without paying much attention to the cooking) but the food still comes out delicious. One of those 'naturals', I guess.

@nilesh A few months ago, someone on here already talked about their enshittification by going the MS route with their Ubuntu Store. Had planned to switch from MS to Ubuntu (after this Windows 10) but looks like I'll have to wait a bit for a better (distro) option.

This Stormy Daniels testimony is really sad. It casts the moment as something much more sinister than a frivolous encounter. Her testimony was that it was much more predatory:

MAAAN, the amount of horror Eelam tamils endured my god. One of the militant organizations ostensibly working for freedom of tamils used to kidnap tamil children to sell them. The man who helped shed light on this was kidnapped and never seen again.

@divya They perfected brainwashing. Go down the rabbit hole and read more about Kalaivani Rajaratnam (Rajiv Gandhi's assassination). Most of it I recall were from what I read in magazines like The Outlook. Hopefully, some are still out there on the internet.

"on Paltu Paltan, an Instagram account mocking opposition parties with 1 lakh 64 thousand followers, two Muslim men tell a Hindu man that if Congress comes to power, they will get half of his assets. One of the actors, playing a Muslim man, is 15-year-old Ashish Pandey from Bihar. Created in June 2022, Paltu Paltan has over 3000 posts, only following right wing and official Bharatiya Janata Party accounts with each reel garnering a little less than 10,000 likes."

@anniezaidi Not so surprising. There was this "Go to Pakistan" comment reply followed with expletives on a post on NorthEast Today's FB page and Pema Khandu (official account) gave a Haha reaction to it. I understand it must be the staff that maintains the page but just giving an idea of how BJP's IT Cell works overtime.
