A lot of rice is used in Mexican cuisine, but they don’t seem to go in for fragrant rice like basmati. I looked into why, and it’s because arroz by any other name would smell as sweet.

Stuff undermining the truth. Israel didn't block the flotilla, they committed an act of piracy in international waters and illegally captured people carrying life-giving humanitarian aide.

Stuff article on the flotilla with the text "Israels navy blocked hundreds of people trying to sail to Gaza to deliver aid to Palestinians."

This is proof that conservative parents don't spend actual time with their kids (well, we know Graham doesn't). If they did, they'd know that there have been queer characters on Netflix (and Disney, Nickelodeon etc.) for decades. Like, they're only just discovering Dead End Paranormal Park.

the really cool part is when you find out there isn’t a “best” one. It’s part taste, part art, part clairvoyance, and only a little bit science

I’m 20+ years into a software career and “really cool problem solving” is still my favourite part. Breaking down an idea into simple steps an idiot rectangle can follow. There are a million ways to do it, and figuring out which ones are going to unlock cooler puzzles feels like magic.

this might be a difficult take for the world’s most capitalist nation but: pay people who do work for you. doesn’t matter if they’re Taylor Swift or the guy picking up trash in the stands after everyone has left.
