    Whatever’s left after Israel is done with its sanctioned genocide. Just to be clear by Israel I refer to Natanyau and his goons. Wether he represents the people of Israel is very debatable but not as much as Hamas which isn’t democratic like at all and doesn’t represent the Palestinians at all.

    Dammit why does my comment feel like it’s a pumpkin latte white chick instagram account’s opinion?

        I think a lot of other types of hummus probably support israel too. A lot of tahini comes from israel (from informal survey of tahini available at my local grocery store)

        Home-made hummus is the way to go. Food processor is nice but I've used a blender in a pinch. Cheap, and you can make a mountain of it for a few bucks. Tahini is the only semi-pricey ingredient but still the price of like 2 small store bought hummus tubs, and it makes so much

          Pro-tips for making hummus at home:

          Get to your local Indian grocer and buy channa dal.

          What is it? It's chickpeas that have been split and dehusked. Not only will your chickpeas cook in (ostensibly) half the time, you won't need to worry about the skins making your hummus lumpy or going to the bother of trying to remove them manually.

          There's a fair bit of back and forth online about how to make hummus very smooth. Some people align to the ice water blending camp, others to the blend while hot camp. Either way, using a high speed blender is ideal (be cautious about blending hot things in a blender though - all the typical safety warnings apply). I'll leave it up to whoever bothers to read this to do their own research and figure out what works best for their situation.

          To take it up one notch, apparently besan flour in Turkey is commonly known as instant hummus flour. Besan is readily available in Indian grocers as well. If you blend besan flour with water that has just boiled, you will get very smooth hummus for practically zero effort. I was fiddling around with this before my life went to absolute shit so I never quite nailed it and last time I checked there was no English-language info out there on how to use Besan flour as instant hummus so I didn't get to figure out the ideal ratio of besan flour to water. I found that an undesirable skin formed on this hummus due to the way that it cooled but this can be prevented by placing cling wrap or similar over the top of your hummus and pressing it down so that there's no contact with air before it cools. (Also you can use the besan flour to make Burmese "tofu" - it's super simple to make!)

          If lemons are expensive in your region, sumac is your friend. This spice is a bit more difficult to source as it's less common but it serves as a really good stand-in for lemon (technically lemon is the stand-in for sumac in West Asian cooking afaik but I digress...) Sourcing citric acid is another alternative and it works quite well too. It's never going to be the same as freshly squeezed lemon juice but it's very cheap. You can also use the leftover citric acid to make your own surface cleaning spray which is odor-free and stupidly cheap.

          These are tips that you don't really find elsewhere, for some reason. I guess I just think about hummus a lot?

            Used to make hummus in a foodservice setting: use canned chickpeas instead of cooked dry. Make sure your food processor is ventilated well because you’re gonna be running it longer and with a higher load than it was designed for. Use some kind of oil to straighten out the consistency once the tahini and chickpeas are blended right. Go easy on the oil if you’re gonna use a liquid spice.

            Some cool hummus flavors to make:

            garlic and onion: it’s garlic and onion powder. Favorite of crackers.

            Buffalo chicken: ranch dressing powder and cayenne.

            Mint: fresh mint leaves. It’s weird to experience the “spice buildup” that some foods have with mint.

            Bbq: literally pour some bbq sauce in there. The more concentrated and flavorful ones work good.

            You get some unexpected diners when your server says “our hummus today is bbq marinade”.

        Just 196, I still run my own little comm on the instance (and just yesterday had someone come into it repeatedly messaging me from multiple different alts saying "you give all trans people a bad name" and calling me a crying wokescold because I banned them for saying tr*nny (they're cis))

            Yea they were going at me in my replies like

            morshupls mfw the pickme trans comm says it's okay for me to say it and I was quoting a trans person when I said it and anyway you can see that bcs it's in quotation marks and also I was only quoting somebody going to great lengths to defend Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan but they're not actually that bad anyway and why do you keep assuming I'm cis but I think you give all trans people a bad name you illiterate fuck morshupls

            Funniest bit is I initially did nothing to the comment he made that had been reported because I didn't think it was bad enough to be worth doing anything about but Ada sent back the report to me after I initially resolved it doing nothing, so like I vetted the guy a bit more, saw that stuff and banned him.

    Checked out the instance and their top post is cope saying Biden can gain double digits if he legalizes Marijuana. It would certainly help but I doubt it'll make victory inevitable.

      That would have worked like one or two election cycles ago, but much like with abortion States are dealing with that shit on their own now so it's not as big a W as they think it will be. Like, at this point its good for medical in 38 states and for recreational in 24. That boat has already sailed.

      E) That is to say, there aren't as many electoral points to be scored; because alot of people they would have picked up by legalizing weed probably have it already at the state level or by now have moved somewhere that does.

      Also he won't. It's more a condemnation of the Dems than anything to say "He could decriminalize a harmless and popular drug to gain overwhelming popularity in a race that he claims is of existential importance, but he fucking won't"

    You say you support the Palestinians, yet you refuse to commend Hamas. Curious, very curious indeed.
