Beef barley soup is delicious
So don't attack the pawns, recruit them.
There are plenty of troops that just repair cars. Maybe those cars get used for murder, maybe they don't. It's a complex moral problem that is different for everyone at different levels.
By saying fuck the troops, you are falling into the trap the owners want. You are focusing on pawns rather than the kings they want to be.
Choice 1 be dirt poor or join the military
Choice 2 obey orders or get thrown in military jail
They picked the first vulnerable person they saw. I can only conclude they wanted the protesters to come to his defense so they could start busting heads. Fucking monsters.
how it feels

You have never met an asshole cat?
Listen, I've had some great cats. One in particular was so chill and cuddly when he got diabetes and I had to give him insulin injections twice a day, he would jump up and then snuggle and purr after. Greatest cat ever. That cat had his own cat who was super skiddish with people. If you looked up scardy cat you wouldn't see a picture of this cat because he would run and hide if you pointed your attention in their direction, let alone a camera. They had radically different personalities. There are also asshole cats. Frankly a lot of them (kinda like people).
I think some people have interacted mostly with the assholes and choose not to continue, it's at least a bit understandable.
Lay off a bunch of folks at the FDA, then announce tariffs? WTF? If you want pharma's to onshore manufacturing, you need to provide them quicker review. So much stupidity.
I was thinking rainbow face paint with interesting paterns
Masks work too though.

I saw somewhere there exists a saying along the lines of 'start sauteing onion, add some garlic, then you figure out what you are going to cook.' When my wife and I have time to actually cook, this is basically what we do. everything is better with garlic and onions, from German to Korean. The rest is just details.
If y'all have worked with silicone oil, yea it works kinda like this (depending on viscosity).
It creeps up out of containers, it creeps up walls. It gets everywhere.
Also more protein in wheat compared to rice. Actually a lot more nutrients in wheat compared to rice.
