It's like Facebook, but you only see posts from people geographically near you. Expect lots of lost pet posts, and drama over people not picking up after their horses when riding trails that have an easement over someone's driveway, but oh noes the homeowner should get over themselves because they chose to live in a rural area so they should expect horse poop in their driveway and it's good non-stinky fertilizer anyway, but oh noes etc. So much drama.
I'm also a fan of canned green beans, but only the french sliced ones. I think that helps with the stringiness you can sometimes get. Oh! Creamed corn is also a lovely comfort food for me.
Me "not eating pork" is already a political statement to my mom's side of the family and has been for a at least a decade. A government body recommending less beef? The horror!
I also suspect an overexposure to canned veggies is also to blame. Canned veggies can be soggy-gross. I really like frozen veggies, though. They fill the same "lasts nearly forever" niche, but with a better texture.
Oh, and kale can go stuff itself. Kale and collard greens are the only two leafy greens I just can't stand.
I think the important bit is "maybe-salted water". My same parent didn't like garlic, so I didn't get exposed to it (or most other seasonings) until college.
Not to worry. My partner is trying to make up for lost time keeps incorporating actually-seasoned chicken into meals. I'm to the point where "well, it tastes good when he does it, but I'll still not cook chicken for myself or order it in a restaurant".
Same! Well, TBH chicken often tastes gross to me (grew up with a parent that thought 'boil it in maybe-salted water' was the way to go). But there's plenty of non-beef options! Tofu, turkey, textured vegetable protein, it's all good. (TVP's great for things like sauces, where you just need the texture of ground beef, but the other flavors would drown it out anyway). Even a peanut butter and jelly sandwich makes for an easy work lunches.
10,022 reported fatalities
2550 women
4104 children.
Subtract the children, you get 5918 adult fatalities. (10,022 - 4104=5918)
Edit: the "Data on Casualties" is, like I mentioned, slower to update. There's a date filter--the fatalities listed are from earlier conflicts in the region, or in Israel or the West Bank.
Take a look at this daily brief put out by OCHA (UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs). It's dated 6 November 2023.
Their "Data on Casualties" tracker is more detailed in its breakdown, but is slower to update (as noted on that page).
Edit: So, of 5918 adult fatalities listed, 2550 (43%) were women. It's not clear to me at first glance if the remaining 57% are men, or if there are some undetermined folks mixed in.
By "they elected Hamas" you mean maybe 15% of the current population? That's a broad brush you're wielding.
(Based on 70% of the population of Gaza being under 30 years old, meaning they'd have been 13 or under in 2006, when the last election was held. And Hamas got ~45% of the popular vote in the 2006 election.)
So their edit was made on kbim but not picked up by sh.itjust.works until after you made your comment? Maybe. I dunno. Lemmy is a bit of a black box to me sometimes.
You didn't. Your post was edited, 4 hours ago. Their response was 2 hours ago, so they should have seen that edit before they posted. They might be on mobile and only see the "edited" indicator, not the "how long ago" note?
