Sun Tzu nods, wisely.

I'm under the impression there are more votes to lose by not appearing to stick with Israel than there are votes to lose by not attempting to intervene. At least, that's what the party appears to have assessed.

It's absolutely not enough time. Those are serial killers in the making.

Fuck is wrong with you?

I support this new saying. What's wrong with people literally fitting the original label? I think we generally appreciate those people, right?

Yeah, good point, but that article isn't talking about what's in this picture.

Store-bought sandwich bread usually can be kept in the fridge without much change in texture. That’s because it often contains additives and preservatives that keep it fresh longer.

Also peppers and potatoes. It's amazing to me to think about how adaptive people are that "old world" places have so thoroughly integrated these "new world" items into their culinary cultural identities.

Wikipedia gives a decently quick tour of chili's evolution.

I've been spouting about the "chili queens" of old San Antonio as the origin, but it sounds like they were more significant as an early analog to food trucks that drove chili across cultural gaps. The origin of that food sounds like it originated back, at least, to indigenous peoples and does sound like a staple of cowboys/vaqueros long before the Great Depression.

Then there's Cincinnati-style chili, "developed by Macedonian and Greek immigrants, deriving from their own culinary traditions", so that merging of another style under the same name might muddy the water when it comes to talking about the origin of spiced meat bits.

That's a big motivation for me, too, but I'd say it's about equally that I want archival of the best stuff for when rights holders pull their catalogs from the services I stream. I used to think that was mainly for the more obscure stuff, like local bands' early albums that I can barely find anymore, but recently I've noticed albums missing from main services (Tidal and Spotify, in my case) for bigger acts, too.

Cleveland clinic says says about coffee's laxative effect:

Researchers found that 29% of coffee drinkers report a desire to poop after drinking coffee. The feeling can come pretty quickly, too. (In as little as four minutes!)

And about lactose intolerance (same article):

An estimated 65% of people have some difficulty digesting lactose, which can lead to restroom runs. Lactose intolerance can cause diarrhea and other gastrointestinal (GI) issues within 30 minutes of consumption.

At least they didn't write "brand's", so there's that.
