The NLRB is dead in the water.

Looks like wildcats are back on the table!

I don't have to stare at large screen anymore!

Now I am free to stare at small screen. 📱

Get off my nuts, I want to build a labor party. I just think it's going to be extremely fucking hard and we should recognize it. We still have to do it.

I heard an interesting idea on the Red Menace pod that tenant organizing might be the key to building a labor movement. Unlike AFL-CIA affiliates which are poisoned with labor aristocracy, almost all tenants are universally poor workers. That's a potentially huge source of power.

Even if you added them all together they'd struggle to pull more than a couple percent.

It's an uphill struggle.

I gotta say, Brazil vetoing Venezuela's admission to the BRICS is really disappointing. Glad to see the other BRICS members aren't taking that as a signal to avoid making their own deals.

It's not just that people are struggling under the current economic conditions.

It's that the Democrats responded to it by telling voters that inflation has gone down and the economy is great and anyone trying to convince them times are hard are actually just lying. It was infuriating to be talked down to that way and people rejected it.

That's why I favor building a labor party and splintering the Democrats away from their shitty party. Their party is full of people who do not belong and would be more at home in a different party, if we had a system that wasn't so unfavorable to third parties.

The only choice is to replace the Democrats as the only other party. Let all the right-wing Democrats join the Republicans and we build a new party with everyone who is left.

Seems... Impossibly hard to do though.

There is no home for progressives in the Democratic Party. At this point the only hope is to go independent like Sanders or join one of the third parties and abandon Democrats entirely. Democrats will never learn.

If only there was some🔻thing we could do.

And it's not like Biden could have been forced out of the race any earlier.

America won't like that.

 

Unfortunately didn't have any carrot, but still turned out really good!

Tacos! (lemmy.ml)

Beans and rice cooked in diluted pineapple juice, with peppers, corn, and pineapple tidbits. Then your usual taco fixins (lettuce, onion, tomato, hot sauce) on a store-bought tortilla.

 

It's got onion and tomato and lettuce and cucumbers and jalapenos and bell peppers and smokey tvp and some spicy sauce 🤤

 

The potatoes are mixed with fried tvp, peas, and carrots. The cauliflower are breaded and airfried, coated with a spicy buffalo barbecue sauce.

Miiiight have cooked a little too much tho 😅

Also here's an action shot

 

Carmelized onions and garlic, cubed potatoes, bell peppers, and egg substitute; topped with hot-sauce, with a cup of white chai on the side.

 

Just a simple chili made with four tomatoes, one onion, half a bell pepper, a three chipotles in abado sauce, a clove of garlic, a couple tbsp of chili powder, a tbsp of oil, and then topped with nooch and air fried kidney beans.

I think I'll spring for mango or pineapple next time.

 

And here they are ready for action

Okay so I knew we had a holiday on Easter weekend at my job and I assumed we'd have Good Friday off, since that's what literally every other job I've had has done and since it's a semi-holiday.

Nope, we got Monday off. April fools! 😂

So now I just burned two attendance points because I was a no-call-no-show and lost out on holiday pay.

Death to America.

 

Did you know soy sauce Top Ramen is vegan? Maruchan isn't so don't get em confused!

The greens are raw sweet peas and green onion.

Veggie BLTs (lemmy.ml)

I've been slowly adding more and more veggies through experimentation, but now I'm at the point where I either need to use bigger tortillas or just be more picky about which veggies I want 😅 this is the configuration I'm using right now, though in the summer I like to use avacado instead of sauce.

I heat the tortillas in a pan with a light coat of walnut oil and black pepper and assemble my fixins in the pan itself.

Sauce is also homemade! I save all the vinegar from pickled jalapenos and then mix that with equal parts coconut oil in a heated pan, then combine it with whatever seasoning I'm feeling like during that batch (rn I'm using nooche, though sometimes I go for an onion sauce or mustard). It's not super precise so there's no recipe, I've just got a feel from experimentation.

Also the fake-on bits are actually a cheap local veriety I've found. Basically just smoke and salt flavored crunchy soy chips.

Once I'm done, I pack up my chopped veggies to do this again in a couple days. I usually make four at a time every two days, and these are my pre-shift and mid-shift work meals. Served with a thicc pea protein chocolate drink.

 

And you all told me the blue maga border bill that Republicans rejected was 4d chess.

 

Kidney beans and rice with taco seasoning, caramelized onion and garlic, and I found out I can get dried habaneros near me! Definitely growing those this year, I forgot how good they are (haven't had any since before the pandemic 🥲 )

Also that Perrona sauce is... okay. It's really sweat, throws off everything. Also not nearly as spicy as I was hoping! It's a cool color, you can't really tell but it's actually green, but it just didn't hurt me the way I like 😌
