@jaykass At the risk of making a bad joke even worse, don’t forget cumin. Seriously, if you’re prepping stew meat, cumin and black pepper are key. Beyond my cumin quirk, I generally stick to The NY Times old fashioned beef stew recipe.
While center/libs debate the semantics of what was said at CPAC, the genocide is underway in GOP-controlled statehouses. Knowles was not proposing anything new; his words were a statement of purpose for something that is actively happening.
Fentanyl is undoubtedly a public health problem but cops and conservative politicians are intentionally stoking a moral panic by suggesting dealers are targeting children. This line and the ridiculous videos of cops having panic attacks when near the drug are just propaganda for expanded policing and prisons.
Chico State President Gayle Hutchinson and David Hassenzahl, Dean of of Natural Sciences, should resign or be fired. College administrators were aware of a threat by professor David Stachura to go on a shooting spree and kill his co-workers. They responded by letting him back on campus.

Dude is trying to make it easier for all the racist and homophobic mass shooters to post their manifestos.
As usual, the details are much worse than the headline. Police Departments are criminal enterprises, gangs wielding the power of the state for their own benefit and protecting the interests of the wealthy.
