Do NOT use vanilla in place of sherry! I just made this exactly as written and used vanilla since I didn't have sherry. It is now down the disposal. The smell alone was a huge indicator of what it would taste like. Whoever thought of vanilla with meat? Nasty.

So he *could* actually have done stuff from October 2023, he simply refused to do it, is what you're saying?

Considering how this issue is polling, maybe you should, you know, revisit.

And of course, a leaders' role is to lead, to shape opinion; some Democratic politicians seem to get that. Others are perfectly happy to follow focus groups, with great success! Works so well with the Brit's Labour btw!

What part of "blocked by Netanyahu, against whom Biden was entirely powerless" did I miss? What would have prevented Bibi from blocking that "peace deal" for 2, 3, 10 more years?

The same "peace deal" that's being done by the genocide enabler currently in power? You're not making the point you think you're making here.

This is the difference between “corporate rich” and “oligarch rich” on display: a corporate guy might care that he’s financially wrecking his asset, but an oligarch guy can afford to throw away billions on a pet ideological project

Here's the full story. Also, I hope the Guardian goes out of business for its part in this process: www.liberalcurrents.com/britains-bat...

Britain’s Bathroom Ban

The UK has gone from a bathroom ban being unthinkable to a Labour government implementing an extraordinarily authoritarian one—without a vote.

Like, no journalist ever mentions Rowling’s support for the openly anti-feminist Posie Parker, who wants women to stay home in the kitchen and have babies, or religious extremist Caroline Farrow, let alone the antisemitic conspiracy theories swirling around the anti-trans movement.

And how did the Democrats fare on that "not cutting off Israel" policy? 🤔

He had a "peace deal" on the table, entirely dependent on the goodwill of Bibi, who had.. none to offer. So, he actually had nothing, because he didn't/couldn't want to use the tools at his disposal to enforce anything at all.

I mean on that account, I, nobody, also had a peace deal!

It was up to democrats to offer a candidate who took a stand. They aren't *entitled* to people's votes, especially when the "lesser" of the two evils is still a genocidal maniac.

Woops, Israel already broke that cease-fire!

Cathulhu (Cathy Lou if you work at Starbucks) @frankexchange.bsky.social · 3h

But nobody thought that, except the goblins in your head.

OTOH, some people didn't want to vote for a genocide enabler, be it a Democrat or a Republican.

Lot of people treated a genocide of a people, sponsored by their own country, as an annoying pet issue that needed to be shelved after the killing as complete or pushed aside for other political problems. And pretended that it was just too complicated to engage with.

The shameful part is that Palestinians were always telling the world what's happening & were always getting killed by Zionists. But those deaths were not enough. It took a full blown genocide for most westerners to come around...and even now some people have the audacity to say "it's complicated"
