I could… tell when I made it to the bathroom. The sesame oil was not digested at all. I have eaten the same type of salad before and since.

Maybe it’s a unique thing to just me, but no, I’ll never try that again just to see. It was a horrible experience.

Pretty sure it was being raw that did it. I’ve cooked with it since and never had a problem. But when it goes on a salad, it’s typically just right out of the bottle… Never again.

Just as a heads up to anyone reading this… Don’t use sesame oil to make an oil and vinegar dressing. I did it once and shit my pants so bad I never wore khaki pants again. That stuff isn’t like Olive oil or anything else in your kitchen. It is Instant Bad Day in a bottle.

“Everyone’s nasty except me!” Exclaims world’s nastiest man.

That doesn’t mesh with the expressed views of Democratic leaders like Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer.

What would you consider AOC? I would call her a progressive, but maybe the disconnect we’re having is over definitions more than anything else.

Well damn, that makes a lot of sense. And sounds fun. I would play it if I didn’t disagree with Ubisoft’s business practices so much.

I’m surprised that Yasuke was the source of the problem. They had a Netflix show about him a few years ago, and before that there was Afro-Samurai which I believe was also somewhat based off of him. I can’t imagine using the only black man in Japan at the time would lend itself to being stealthy (any race but Asian, specifically of Japanese decent, would have stood out back then), but I also haven’t played the game so I don’t know if stealth is even a mechanic in this franchise anymore.

I figured people would be mad about Ubisoft’s business practices and watering down of the AC franchise in general. That’s been a talking point for years.

That being said, this is the perfect response: take away the anonymity of keyboard warriors and get them to own their words. It’s a lot harder to be mean when it’s two people, face to face. The problem is, most people don’t have time to confront everyone online.

It’s amazing this was never fixed. In Korematsu v United States, a Japanese-American citizen didn’t report to Manzanar concentration camp and was imprisoned. The Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that it was legal to imprison citizens for national security reasons. That case still stands. And a similar executive order could be issued to do the same at any time, and Congress would be the only thing stopping it.

The order was based on the Alien Enemies and Sedition act of 1798, which was also already involved by Trump on this term.

I would love to be wrong, but I feel like more camps are in our future. CECOT is just the beginning.

Kind of like how COVID reset our expectations on everything. Bare shelves at Christmas might reset what we really need to buy.
