  For jalapeños and other peppers, the pith is where most of the pungency comes from. It’s also more bitter than the rear of the pepper. If you chop into quarters lengthwise, it’s easy to cut the seeds and pith away from the flesh. You’re the left with a milder, sweeter result.

  … in case you’re in an experimental mood.

  shit like onions and actually use some real fucking spices from India and Mexico

  … but… India eats a lot of onions… because as great as the spices are, onions are also great. You can have both. You should have both.

  I don’t want a one-time, 5% wealth tax. I want a recurring wealth tax. At 0.5%, such a tax outpaces the one time 5% in ten years.

  I would settle for one time 5%… but it’s just so short-sighted. 5% in one sudden movement is actually a big ask… and are we actually going to be able to pull that off more than once?

  A recurring wealth tax 1) is better in the long-term, 2) is less disruptive to the stock market (which we should care about, as long as this is the sustem we have) 3) makes for a more predictable economic environment, so people with money might actually still want to live in CA.

  They included the Spotify logo. It’s just <insert song here> rather than labelling the picture as “Fortunate Sons”.
