Odd... I've always seen soybean oil as having a higher smoke point of ~450F

I don't like her views on pseudomedicine, and there was some troubling reporting on how she's verbally abusive to staff, but on basically every important political issue she's better than most mainline Democrats. The soundbites and debates definitely made her sound weird but on 1-1 interviews she seemed fairly well-spoken and with admirable ideals and moral consistency. When most politicians on both sides of the aisle are supporting crackdowns on migrants, tariffs on renewable technologies, and genocide, it definitely seems to me that some weirdness isn't really the top priority here. At the very least she was the best candidate, policy-wise, on the 2024 Dem primary ballot.

Marianne Williamson was far less weird and actually quite well-spoken and based but they laughed her out of the room every time

Rip their demographic crisis tho

The Acropolis Museum in Athens communicates this theft very effectively and poignantly. The top floor is 1:1 scale to the original Parthenon. All the marbles are shown, including both the ones Greece has and the stolen marbles reconstructed in a bright white plaster. Just walking through and looking at it all you can feel the sense of loss and injustice.

If you don't want people driving who aren't in a mental state where they should be driving, then you need good viable alternatives to driving. Otherwise people will continue to suck it up and drive when they are tired, sick, stressed, had a single beer, etc.

I love democracy. I love the Republic. Once this crisis has abated, I will lay down the powers you have given me!

Just saw The Encampments last night in theaters. Mahmoud Khalil features prominently. Highly recommend everyone go watch and support.

They've already started moving production to India and Vietnam to avoid China tariffs, but moving to the US is definitely unviable regardless.
