This isn’t “I want to believe”, this is “it would be irresponsible to not consider”.

One of many.

  • EDIT: Yeah, I got rid of it. I had some poor and unclear word choice. I was just trying to say that Zelenskyy’s face is very communicative. He’s a skilled actor who can emote with his face and body language to communicate his position to the audience, at times without even having to get a word in edgewise. His time on TV as a comedian gave him a lot of practice. Communication is a great skill for a leader; subtle communication is a great skill during war. He clarified Ukraine’s position, and got Trump to clarify America’s change of course. He could have handled America’s heel turn in many different ways. He chose not to rise to the aggression and barbs being flung. He just clarified his country’s position and got Trump to focus on how much he wants the “raw earth”. Zelenskyy did a great job with what little he could say to guide the short exchange to expose America’s position behind Putin, and that we are only interested in Ukraine to plunder its mineral wealth.


  • While the pizza rolls are in the oven, put peas, butter, and cheese into a saucepan and slowly heat them and mix them together. Maybe some gravy or broth if you have some to use up, or another source of salt. When the pizza rolls come out, add them and stir to coat them in flavour before serving.

    ₣rozen peas are tasty just on their own. Just pour out a handful to munch on as a snack.

    I tend to just do peas and gravy on all sorts of things, since I don’t have much butter or cheese and I have a lot of spare gravy base from bean making. Peas and gravy on french fries, on pasta, on whatever you want. It’s the easiest topping to make and it goes on mostly anything.






  • To bring this more in-line with OP’s question:

    What if we had a general union that represented all workers generally and could provide support for things like general strikes?

    Maybe make it a parent body made up of unionized/federated unions specific to each trade/discipline.

    Something like the IWW or the AFL-CIO, but that represents all people by default. I’d argue that such a body could/should replace most of what the government does, and then membership is just citizenship. This could guarantee several worker’s rights within the union and enshrine democratic principles/practices.
