Adding to the dogpile here: IDF and Israel Twitter profiles posted videos that “proved” this, then people quoted old tweets showing that video was from the last year

The original title of the article called the accident an attack, before they confirmed it was not a chinese boat.

I was a “gifted” kid, always 98/99th percentile on every standardized test I took, but when it comes to things like synthesis of knowledge and generating new ideas

Same. Read me a text then give me a multiple-choice test and I’ll get every question right.

Read me a text then ask me what I learned, what it could be a metaphor for, what other texts express similar ideas? Uhhhhhhh

Dying for a country you couldn’t point on a damn map

Absolutely epic

I’m brazilian so I eat beans pretty much every day. Black beans are my favorite food in the world and I already decided I’d get feijoada for my last meal in the death row.

I need to get a pressure cooker. It takes around 2 hours for black beans to cook in a regular pot, so I always make enough for the whole week and freeze it in individual portions, then I thaw those portions in a pot. The good thing is that beans still taste good even if you freeze them.

My “recipe” (no measures because who even measures everyday food). If you are vegetarian then just use some olive oil instead of the bacon+sausage, it still tastes amazing.

• Soak black beans in water for 12-24 hours

• Dump the soaking water, wash the beans then add to the pot, cover with more water (in a regular pot I let the water level get about 5 inches above the beans, no idea with a pressure cooker)

• Cook until the grains are soft (15-20 minutes with a pressure cooker, around 2 hours without one)

• Add chopped bacon to a cold pan, turn heat to medium. When some fat has rendered, add smoked sausage slices and keep cooking

• When bacon and sausage get a bit of color, make some space on the center of the pan and add ground cumin to toast for a few seconds

• Add chopped onions and cook for 3-4 minutes, until they start to get a bit translucent

• Add chopped red bell pepper (sometimes I add a little bit of chopped red chili aswell) and cook for a couple minutes

• Add crushed/minced garlic and cook for ~30 seconds

• Make some space on the pan, take a ladle full of the cooked beans, add them to the pan and crush them with the back of a wooden spoon to form a paste (this will help release starch from the beans to thicken the broth)

• Add everything from the pan back to the pot, add salt and MSG (optional but it tastes so freaking good), simmer uncovered for another 15-20 minutes until the liquid thickens. If you are using bacon and sausage it’s a good idea to go easy on the salt and taste and adjust near the end.

• If you have some fresh parsley and chives that you are going to throw out anyway, chop them, turn the heat off and add them to the pot.

These beans are a great meal by themselves, or you can serve them over rice. If you can find cassava flour then try making farofa.

Pretty common in Brazil
