wow looking forward to the #discourse next year

It’s already started! Not 5 minutes after she won, the usual antisemitic (mainly leftwing corbynite, some rightwing fash-y, ofc, in case you wondered) types have come crawling out of the woodwork to cry about how “Israel shouldn’t exist as a country, yadda yadda, surely this is the one country to have ever had a fractious domestic political system, how could the european public vote to crown a …you know. You know what she is. Jewish– no wait I meant Zionist. That’ll cover it. I’m totally motivated by care for random Palestinians and not because I’m a giant piece of trash. Israel’s not even in Europe* anyway.”

If I wasn’t already supporting her because of her song, I’d be supporting her out of spite because it’s upset the racists…


*(The answer to the last question is – because if you knew your Eurovision history you’d know it was because Israel is a founder member of the EBU, you fake Eurovision fans.)

Yeah, if I had a quid for every time I saw ‘butbutbut Israel isn’t in Europe!’ I’d be loaded. Oddly enough, no-one says this about Turkey, Georgia, Armenia or Azerbaijan.

Also: it begins.

I was one of the scary kids too, and I won’t be able to watch this either.

From Mel Baggs:

“We were children trying to survive environments we couldn’t cope with.  Every one of us.  The system failed all of us, and we all knew it.  Some of us survived, some of us didn’t, none of us came out unscathed.

All of us were singled out as the problem kid with problems, ignoring what surrounded all of us: violence, hopelessness, abuse, neglect, despair, bullying, torture, confusion, oppression.

What the media is doing to these children is its own form of violence.  It is an invasion.  It is telling our stories the way they see us, not the way we are.”

I was one of the scary kids too, and I won’t be able to watch this either.

@clatterbane,

If you ever want some troubleshooting help with some of the fiddlier recipes, let me know. 🙂

Thanks! I do have some experience with jams and jellies, but that’s a nice offer not being familiar with those particular recipes.

At this point, I’m mostly hoping to get the spoons together to play around some with lower sugar variations, and this was a good reminder 😅

I had to get amused again. Not a word for almost 2 weeks–so, now it’s time for more running travel updates than I really want, going by experience 😅

With my great grasp on time, I didn’t even connect that it was today that he was supposed to be heading back. For that little bit more disruption value. But, evidently so.
