Wow this is great!

Unpopular opinion but The left really isn’t talking about the censorship of Hunter Biden’s penis enough

Listening to the father of a candidate I was ostensibly helping campaign talk his rich buddy about when they were putting their boat in the water.

Incredible political instincts

I like to call 9/11 “sad Fourth of July” really captures the vibe I think

That happened within the first like 5 minutes no cap

“I love small business owners like the nurse maid my mother paid to help raise me” was a wild move out the gate by Kamala. Extremely relateable and normal folks.

It’s only bad opsec if anyone here has a healthy sleep schedule

We need a “Robert Evan’s is a fed” effort post

So fucking true

I love Eli Valley his art style reminds me of Clive Barker

My head canon is that whoever did this may have been Ukrainian but they were for sure CIA asset and now the state department will begin their inevitable process of abandoning Ukraine and throwing them under the bus for their own failures in this conflict w/ Russia

About damn time

Right I agree with you and that’s kinda what I’m trying to say.

I think there’s no reason not to admit that cheese Is objectively very tasty and no small part of that is the casomorphin and its effect on the brain.

That is not something vegan cheese will ever do and that’s ok, that’s what you learn to live without. The subs are getting better and better and absolutely kick ass in their own right.

I’m also trying to make the finer point that IMO a lot of vegan recipes and influencers over extend Tofu and don’t play to its strengths, instead trying to use it to emulate something it cannot. I say this specifically pertaining to firm tofu. Because nothing makes me raise my eye brow faster at a recipe than just tossing a big beautiful block of that stuff into a blender to make something creamy. I find I am often dissapointed and dissatisfied with the result of that as opposed to just cutting up wonderful little tofu cubes, marinating those and eating them.

I kinda feel the same way about Avocado, like Guacamole is good, but it is specifically a recipe to fully utilize over ripe and sub optimal avocados. Not every avocado needs to be mashed and IMO it’s just using the ingredient poorly to mash up a perfect avocado as opposed to fanning it and serving it with its original texture and shape somewhat intact.

And of course I completely forgot about silken tofu which probably can make a great paneer substitute when done thoughtfully by someone with skill and knowledge of what paneer tastes like and how it’s used. I live in an extra firm tofu household. All hail the mighty soy bean.

And of course all of you should abandon all dairy products if you haven’t already unless you are a literal baby cow.

Yeah I second this. The more I think about it I think you could actually do a pretty good paneer substitution w/ silken Tofu and the right spice blend. I tend to just forget different tofu firmness exist because I can never eat enough extra firm tofu lol

Tofu + nooch is very good but it’s tricky because I find when you add nooch into like a soup or something it doesn’t thicken it and the flavor just disappears. Nooch is best as a garnish IMO

You’re right that Tofu is incredible but my love of Tofu runs so deep that i genuinely like it best when it’s retaining its original texture In some way. Of course this only applies to firm tofu. I can see silken tofu being a good paneer substitute so maybe that’s where this user went wrong. I generally find when you try and use firm tofu to make something creamier I am often dissatisfied with the results.

I agree with you in no small part because it’s just not a good way to use Tofu IMO.

You may disagree but even just using like cashew butter and/or chick pea flour would probably be better and more authentic.

You’re not wrong that a lot of Vegan cooking influencers are trash and anyone trying to use Tofu as a cheese replacement is deeply unserious.

Tofu is amazing in its own right and there really aren’t any perfect cheese substitutes. The science is improving but they aren’t there yet.

There a lot of fatty starch amalgamations that pass for cheese and cultured cashew butters but ultimately you just kinda learn to live without it and it’s NBD.

It’s wild how often the right uses this argument when their incredible gullibility leaves them looking moronic. Like, no, it doesn’t mean anything about society. It means you specifically are dumb and naive and vastly overestimating your own intelligence.
