gently caress it all Chinese food is pretty boss

We finally have an authentic Cantonese restaurant in my city and I bought some 2 days ago and I think it might have ruined all other Chinese food for me, it was so good. Until now the only other Chinese food places were Mandarin (blech) and a small shop run and owned by a white couple from Ohio that seem to think the answer to "How can we add more flavour?" is always apparently more salt.

Also a restaurant specializing in pho opened up nearby a few months ago and its within walking distance of my house so I plan on trying it out now as well. Theres an Indian food place going up nearby that Im keeping an eye on too. Its a good time to be a fan of food. :toot:

My city up until maybe 8-10 years ago was 90%+ white people (most of whom identified as rurals despite this place being nothing but another suburb of Toronto) so anything other than white people food is like a magical ride for my tastebuds at the moment and I will take whatever I can get.

Legacy DSA members throwing a fit over the possibility that Fetonte might have to step down is great because these are the same people who turned the org into even more of a joke than most left orgs in the US. But hey, I'm sure there's no reason the DSA had just about 500 members a year ago when even some regional anarchist orgs could pull more.

*Points to the long history of success from the DSA and other explicitly (dem)socialist groups in America* erm, hm.

It's the growing pains you'll see from any group whose core is people who have been burned by traditional (economic/political) power structures and whose heaviest recruitment periods have been oppositionally motivated. The Tea Party, despite their hatred of (Democratic)Washington, still craved strongmen to follow and were thus easily unified. I'm curious to see how they handle influx given the default distrust and contrarian streak within much of their membership.

It'll be wonderful if they can coalesce, but I'm expecting that either the fringier personalities will either lose out and splinter or they'll gain/retain control and the less dramatic membership will be driven into the arms of a Democratic Party that wasn't really opposed to them in the first place.


ugh. IdentityPolitics.
