Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

“woke” is the new caravan.

Seems like a complicated subject, have you tried yelling at it?

They love authoritarianism, but only when they get to be the authoritarians.

It’s easy to sit in safety and prescribe what other people should be doing.

Wow, I can’t imagine what it was like to comment in morse code.

JFC, are there no editors left at that goddamn rag?

The fundamental promise of conservatism all over the world is a return to an idealized past that never existed.

A norm that restrains only one side really is not a norm – it is a trap.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

The arc of history bends toward the same old fuckery.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

Michigan is a great lesson for Dems everywhere: when you have power…use it!

It’s pointless to bring up problems that can only be solved with a time machine.

When we show up, we win.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Radicalized white males who support Trump are pitching a tent in the abyss.

Usually wrong but never in doubt

Not rolling over. fuck you, make me.

Trumpflation is an intolerable hardship for every American, and it’s Trump’s fault.

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

    I believe the soft is used in soups and the like. There’s actually more than two types: Chinese and Japanese tofu is different.

    If any rightwinger offers an insight on a matter of freakin’ soft tofu, I swear it’s gonna be Pow! To the Moon!

    Please, don’t shatter stereotypes–only lefties answer the critical “food” question.

    Cordially…

    Heh. I like tofu a number of different ways, but it is hard to beat chilled tofu and soy sauce. Doesn’t get any simpler or any tastier than that.

    So you eat soy bean curd in soy bean sauce? I don’t know, that almost seems like it would violate the whole don’t boil a calf in its mother’s milk restriction.

    Tofu is not my bag, but I love Thai food, and I can pick around it. Soft Tofu sounds a little squishy and liberal to me, bleh.

    I had never eaten tofu until I discovered that my 10 year old son is allergic to many foods and I started searching for substitutes. He’s allergic to dairy, gluten (bread, etc.), eggs, etc, etc. In short, most of his favorite foods. Can you imagine telling a 10 year old he can’t ever eat ice cream again? (It’s not a pretty sight) For people, like my son, who are allergic to dairy products, soft tofu can often substitute. You can make ice cream with it, mayonnaise, and as someone pointed out above, smoothies and shakes.

    The last three posters have it right and I had it wrong; in East Asian cooking, soft tofu is used somewhat like custard.

    Self-correcting blogosphere in action.
