Air Fryer Sliced Potatoes — In Dianes Kitchen

Sliced potatoes cooked in the Air Fryer are crispy on the outside, soft on the inside and very good! Soak your peeled and sliced potatoes in water over night in the refrigerator. I left mine in there for two days. Drain and pat dry with paper towels then place in a medium bowl. Drizzle with […]

Viral Humanity

Joseph D. Newcomer

We are things not unlike those studied in Petri dishes, save for the fact that they may be operating on a purely biologically instinctual level, whereas we choose to be many of the things–ways we are. It’s as if our prevailing drive is to infect every other person with our personal experience-distorted ideas, opinions, and values. Can’t we just live and let leave everybody the fuck alone?

The worst diseases imaginable are transmitted through words.

Why is it always the most insanely boring people who seem to want everyone in the world to be exactly like them? Watch The Walking Dead and imagine if it were just zombies. No matter your opinion of the show, I think we can all agree that an hour of watching only the zombies walk around would be a lot more like standing in line at the DMV. So, why are so many of us…

Uvalde teacher who lost 11 kids in his classroom says ‘there is no excuse’ for officers’ delay in taking down gunman – CNN

Arnulfo Reyes can’t forgive law enforcement for taking more than an hour to stop a gunman who killed 11 fourth-graders in his Texas elementary school classroom and 10 other people in the next room, he told ABC.

Reyes, a teacher who was shot twice during the May 24 massacre at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, recalled the horror that unfolded in his room and an adjoining one and spoke, too, in interviews that aired Monday and Tuesday about his mounting anger toward law enforcement responders.
“After everything, I get more angry because … I had nothing” for protection, such as a bulletproof vest, Reyes told ABC’s Amy Robach in a segment broadcast Tuesday on “Good Morning America.”
“You’re supposed to protect and serve. … There is no excuse for their actions. And I will never forgive them,” the fourth-grade reading and English/language arts teacher said in some of his first public comments since the slaughter.

Foreign capital powers Brazil’s meatpackers and helps deforest the Amazon

  • Foreign investors, including asset management companies and pension funds, now own large stakes, which means that ordinary citizens in the United States and elsewhere are helping fund Amazon deforestation through their investments.
  • The three Brazilian families behind the Big Three have remarkable rags-to-riches histories, though with the speed of their expansion and dominance greatly assisted by the Brazilian government, keen to produce “National Champions.”
  • The companies expanded rapidly abroad, but their presence in the U.S. means they are now subject to greater scrutiny from authorities and NGOs. However, most small-scale investors, including working people, have no awareness they’re investing in the destruction of the Amazon, one of the world’s most crucial carbon sinks.

It’s largely accepted that clearing land for cattle accounts for 70% of Amazon deforestation, with the rate of rainforest cutting accelerating drastically since President Jair Bolsonaro took office at the start of 2019. Between August 2020 and July 2021, 13,235 square kilometers (5,110 square miles) were lost, the highest level since 2006. That devastation is likely to increase in 2022, undermining the Amazon’s vital carbon storage capacity.

Far less recognized outside financial circles is the key role international capital, particularly from the United States, plays in driving Amazonian destruction through its investments in Brazil’s beef sector.
