Sounds tasty, I’ll give it a try

My favorite mojito recipe:
2 Oz (60 ml) white rum
1/2 Oz (15 ml) rich demerara syrup (2:1 sugar to water ratio)
1 lime, quartered
a goodly amount of fresh mint, ~10-12 leaves
a little bit of sugar
~2 Oz (60 ml) soda water
Build:
Put a little sugar in your glass, chuck the lime and mint in, muddle.
After you’re done muddling, fill your glass with ice
Add a splash of soda water (not the whole 2 Oz), rum and syrup, stir until chilled
Too the glass up with soda water, stir again to incorporate the soda
Garnish with a fresh mint sprig
Notes: I really like Planteray 3 star or flor de cana 4 for this recipe. Planteray has an earthier flavor while the flor de cana has a more fruity/tropical vibe. If you don’t have access to demerara sugar, you can use light brown or raw sugar for a substitute.
That’s fair and I get it. However, we’re in a great position to be making demands. I work in EMS and, on top of a dire worker shortage, our company has a hard time retaining what few EMTs and paramedics there are and we’re always incredibly short staffed. Our regional management is sympathetic to our problems and works hard to help us, but our corporate overlords routinely fuck us over. There’s more to it than that but nonetheless, my company is ripe for unionization and it’s frustrating to see this golden opportunity be wasted. Especially because I know we can do it in a horizontal fashion and fill the organizational void in my city’s medical field with something anarchic
I’ll give it a go, thanks for the recommendation. I definitely could be better at articulating solutions in a convincing way. I know what convinced me and why I believe what I believe, but I’m also neurodivergent as fuck and my reasoning doesn’t always translate 1:1 to normal people’s reasoning haha
In the stripped club straight bunkin it. And by it… haha. I mean. My yingits.
It sounds good in practice too. The Zapatistas and Rojava have been putting systems like these in practice for quite some time now. Compared to their neighbors, they’re doing pretty well for themselves. These systems work, have worked, and are likely to continue to work. These systems aren’t for a perfect world, theyre systems to make the world better. My comment isn’t a comprehensive or even prescriptive list of things we need to do to establish anarchy. They’re examples of methods that have been used to great effectiveness and may carry insights and knowledge for people/communities to apply to their contexts in ways that make sense to them.
It shouldn’t be a leap of faith, it should be a careful and calculated effort put forth by those who want to work for it. You may not totally disagree with me, but I wholeheartedly disagree with the characterization that anarchy is unrealistic. It’s been done before and it’s being done now
Encourage and support the current unionization efforts. Stoke radicalism in the working masses, collectivize the means of production in a horizontal and egalitarian fashion. Abolish corporations so that there’s no corporations to manage. Allow the people who are already ensuring you have clean water to continue ensuring you have clean water. Allow the people who already study and test medications to continue to study and test medications. Allow the people who already engineer and maintain infrastructure to continue to maintain infrastructure. Standard anarcho-syndicalist stuff.
For civic management form neighborhood councils that are federated with adjacent communities, repeating this process to cover as much area as possible. Make collective decisions via direct democracy, utilizing revocable delegates to manage specific tasks and coordinate efforts on a large scale. Operate on a hybrid library/gift economy internally and engage in trade with outsiders (if money is still a thing). Distribute housing, food, and medicine freely, based on need and not the ability to pay. Facilitate relationships of freedom and mutual trust in your community. Do your part and trust memebers in your community to do the same. Standard communalist stuff.
There’s shit in the streets right now in many large cities due to the failures of the state. The gilded age and industrial revolution spawned numerous public health crises under the watch of governments. The planet is being burned alive due to failures of the state. The solution is more state? Are you sure about that?
Not to mention the bits we eat/are exposed to are their reproductive organs. It’s just cocks with different buffs/debuffs
It’s the good lords way of apologizing for your close proximity to Alabama
What the fuck is this website lmao
One of the first pieces I read, thanks for reminding me!
Sorry! Worked fine for me. I’ll see if I can’t put a different link up
Jumping in to share another article. Silphium may have been rediscovered!

It’s been almost a decade since I’ve been there haha. It’s on the corner of 207 and US1 in St Augustine. Google says it’s a metro diner, which is a local chain. Not sure if it was a metro when I went there but I wish you well if you give it a shot!
I ordered chicken and waffles at a small diner one time, it was my first time trying it. My server gave me half a chicken (literally) that had been deep fried and a pile of waffles that had to be at least 6 inches high. Best $13 I’ve ever spent but I’ve been afraid to order them ever since
Capisce*
I’m not normally one to spell check people but I recently came across capisce written down and wanted to share since I had no idea how it was spelt either
I would commit crimes for momo. She’s a cutie pie!
Yes, however, do beat the absolute piss out of the limes. The granulated sugar is there to act as an abrasive as well as draw the oils out of the lime rind
