In 5 to 15 years, Russian :gamer:s could have a portable console.

No paywall. Lots of glib jokes about the russia-ukraine war and balconies in the article though.

Fellow , today I made a culinary discovery! I was eating spicy chips from the quick shop along with my hot chocolate and it was... delicious?!? The sweetness and bitterness of the chocolate melded very well with the leftover spicy taste from each chip. Maybe next time, I should put some spicy stuff INSIDE the hot chocolate?!?

No, that's too far. Can't let myself fall to anarchy like they have in Mexico.

Somebody should tell the brown people this. I can't believe nobody thought of it before I, the savior, had this very original idea!

It's 2034, on the morning of January 25th in New York City. I wake up, roll out of bed and quietly open the window to let the 70 degree dirty air inside without waking my 7 roommates (all sleeping in here with me, of course). Then I check my VR glasses to see where the cheapest Wendy's breakfast sandwich surge pricing is and put it in Googazon Maps. The subway was abolished in 2028, but the cheap Wendy's today is only a 40 minute detour from my car commute to Manhattan. I have to take a second detour around the Bronx because the levies broke again today. I catch a morning war report from President Hunter Brandon's State Department to make sure the highway wasn't bombed by American Zionist drone strikes.

The rest of this story has been in the megathreads, but I'll probably compile it into a post someday. It's mostly me using facts and logic, along with ethos and pathos and Norm Finkelstein's book Gaza to convince them that Israel is a genocidal ethnostate.

I am still continuing to radicalize my parents on Israel/Palestine as often as I can get away with. Today, I explained to them what white phosphorous is and how often Israel is using it. And where it is manufactured (it's the USA, folks, in good old St Louis, MO).

If you don't know already, white phosphorous is

NSFL description of a banned weapon that Israel uses weekly

this sticky goo that bursts into flame on contact with the air, then it burns the skin of the victims and poisons you by entering the holes that just burned up, causing liver damage and eventually multiple organ failure.

Also mentioned that Israel destroyed nearly every hospital in Gaza, so no treatment for those women and children burned with chemical weapons.

My mom searched "white phosphorus israel" and saw that Israel did a white phosphorus attack on a Jabalia refugee camp on October 31, killing 195+ civilians (they're all civilians, it's a FUCKING REFUGEE CAMP).

I asked my dad "What you are supposed to do when evil wins and your country is funding it?" (Thanks JT for the excellent framing device). He had a long think about that one.

Comrades, on a recent mutual aid comm post, I received 8 upbears on my bump comment and zero other bump comments. This is a ROOKIE MISTAKE! Don't just give me heckin comment upvoterinos, BUMP IT YOURSELF! The more people that see mutual aid comm posts, the more mutual aid happens. You don't necessarily need money to contribute in this regard.

Comment mutual aid poats to bump for active sort. Also upvote the post, which helps it show up on Hot.

I heard that the official sour warheads soda isn't sour and at least one user on here is sad about it.

You should know that Malic Acid and Citric Acid (and also Lactic Acid, often used in sour beers) are available as concentrated food-safe powders. You can use them in mixed drinks, including turning that boring apple, grape, watermelon, or lemon-lime soda into something you really shouldn't pour down your throat. Nobody is stopping you.

For people who aren't spice-lords or sour-lords, here is a video with some more "normal" and less extreme culinary uses for acids from America's Test Kitchen on YouTube.

Fucking hell, man.

My freezer is still moderately cold, maybe 30 degrees, so I have a bit of space.
