The "don't spend all your time criticising your political allies" challenge is at its hardest for me when it comes to the idea that capitalism is about "stealing" surplus value from the workers and that communism means finally getting paid "fairly". For the love of everything good in this world please just stop dressing up your social-democracy as communism

Whoa, it was raining cats and dogs today, and I had to get to the art school (couldn't miss my class).

Yet it was too much for our drains... Luckily it didn't take long. Yet recording this video cheeredvme up when I felt I wouldn't get there.

you don't like frozen tofu?

do people like it??

my experience has been that it goes from an excellent texture to that of an old dried out sponge after defrosting. and does not recover by soaking

last week when I was complaining to my dad about being sore from shovelling all the snow he was like 'where are you sore' and I said arms and he said 'well you shouldn't be, you should use your core not your arms' and I was like 'shovels connected to my fucking arms innit' and he basically told me I have yet to grasp the spirit of tai chi

My unorthodox Yangchunmian noodle soup/阳春面

(This is the reason why I was rendering lard lol)

Homestyle unorthodox Yangchunmian noodle soup recipe (enough for 1 person but must be served in a big ramen bowl) (Note: this version includes pork fat and is therefore not vegan/vegetarian/halal/kosher):

Ingredients (optional ones marked with *):

Noodles (preferably thin)

Egg

Soy sauce

Cooking oil

Pork lard (preferably rendered following the recipe that includes baijiu/green onions/ginger; if not, there are brands out there that can imitate the taste)

Pyropia seaweed (this is what nori is made from so unseasoned nori is also fine; also sold dried in giant discs)

*Wakame (brown kelp) OR Shanghai bok choy (stem is green instead of white) OR dried shiitaki mushrooms

Green onion

Chinese black vinegar (the one I used is Duliu Laocu/独流老醋, Zhenjiang Xiangcu/镇江香醋 is also fine)

Ground white pepper

Sugar

*Salt

Sesame oil

*Fish sauce/鱼露

*Chicken bouillon powder

Preparation:

Chop green onion, just one will do

Tear off a 2"x2" piece of pyropia seaweed OR 2 small pieces of nori

*If adding bok choy, wash bok choy

*If adding dried shiitaki mushrooms, rehydrate it first

In a ramen bowl, add:

~4 tbsp of soy sauce

~3/4 tsp of pork lard

~1 tsp of Chinese black vinegar

*A few drops of fish sauce

~1/2 tsp ground white pepper

~1/4 tsp sugar

*~1/4 tsp chicken bouillon powder

~1/2 tsp seasame oil

Pour just enough hot water to melt pork lard and combine everything together, mix well

In a sauce pan (at least 1.5 qt):

Turn on heat, set to medium

When pan is hot, rub the pyropia seaweed on the bottom of the pan a couple of times to mimic toasting, then put seaweed into ramen bowl

Pour a little cooking oil into pan, fry the egg until over hard

Add 5 cups of hot water into pan

Add noodles, *add bok choy

Let it cook

*When noodles are halfway done, add the vegetable (wakame/shiitaki mushroom) as desired

When noodles are done, pour everything into bowl, mix well with the soup base in the bowl

*Add salt as desired

Top with fresh chopped green onion and serve

The end product should taste mildly salty, mildly sour, and umami. Overall taste should be mild.

I’m intrigued at the season 5 shock at Brilliant Chang walking into the Garrison —> not only did season 1 episode 1 open with Tommy in the Chinese Quarter knowing enough about the Chinese to use the Chinese to add (drama) to his racing scam, demonstrating clear communication with them, there are also elements of awareness/peripheral mentions of the Chinese enterprise/s featured multiple times, and these half-comments increase notably through Season 4.

So my theory is that Tommy always had a watch on them, as a market force, even if Arthur and co were unaware, and Tommy pulling out that hilarious little notebook on Chang clearly shows this; by counter they always had a watch on him and correctly identified a time when he’d be open to a very risky opportunity. Operating adjacent and mostly in parallel but rarely converging.

Now Arthur was surprised because ~~fucking hell it’s the Chinese where did this come from and how do they have the guts to walk in here like this~~; Tommy was only surprised because (?) it was someone as high ranking as Brilliant Chang (?) and they went so absolutely balls deep (!) on the first real play.

A play of both desperation on Chang’s part (what do you do when you have 7t of opium on your hands and no way to move it or liquidate it=mild panic) but also a sense of ‘just because you think we might be desperate for your canal network to move our shit, just be aware 1) you don’t have the option of saying no even if you think you might and 2) we will destroy you if you fuck us around’

And would BC have even come in to the Blinders, if Tommy hadn’t laid breadcrumbs in some way shape or form indicating he might’ve been interested in the opportunity, even if those breadcrumbs were simply letting it be seen that he was watching/counting/aware of their actions.
