You inspired me to do étouffée like this and it was great. I also blend most salsas except for pico de gallo, especially if it’s for tacos and not dipping.

Georgian-German is a high-performance model. Rewarding but unforgiving, tell him to drive hard, but don’t forget regular maintenance.

The neocon part was the democracy building and trying to make things better; not the military interventions for resources.

Pics not loading. Georgian food is incredible, it’s sort of a heartier, more soulful riff on Persian and Turkish cuisine with haram stuff like wine and pork. God tier cuisine.

This is extremely speculative history but I know that paella is a Valencian specialty and most conquistador types and adventurers were Extremaduran, Andalusian, Castilian, Basque, Galician, etc. Valencia was extremely tied to the Mediterranean world and connected to the Atlantic via West African slave trading.

Gotta confess my complete gap for Brazilian food aside from a couple steakhouses I went to when in wedding parties. It sounds awesome, like when I tell people that Georgian food is in a tier with Italian, French, Thai, etc.

Chinese propaganda continues to make America look super fucking badass.

I should also mention that a big reason idiot third world socialism always fails worse then even the USSR is because they do not have the Berlin Wall or effective exit controls like the USSR or China. Those are there for a reason, they accomplished a lot by making all the competent scientists, administrators, engineers, economists stay in the country and do things on pain of their families getting sent to the gulag. (Cuba tries to do this to an extent). Not possible when anyone with a bit of education just gets a condo in Miami.

Chavez definitely did idiot third-world socialism and fucked things up; Venezuela was pulling out of the collapse of oil in the 1980s but not fast enough. It was not just his political tendencies, nasty autocrats can make decent economic decisions at times but it’s harder. Bro basically speed-ran the Soviet Union but with less competence and no space program: spend like crazy propped up by high hydrocarbon prices, rack up stupid external debts, destroy all other sectors by confiscation and mismanagement, establish cult of personality, die and leave everything to semi-literate peasant successors to make worse. Maduro is spiritually Lukashenka.

She will be invited to watch Maduro led in chains behind Marcus Rubicus Venezuelas through the new DC arch and get the message.

I learned in all of this that the Cubans provided Maduro’s crack security team. That combined with just elevating the deputy just adds to the whole “Rome trying to fix a wayward client kingdom without devoting a whole legion to it” vibes we are giving here. Sassanids (Chinese) in shambles, already scheming how to reassert themselves in Armenia.- Things not going well in Venezuela

All Latin American food outside of Mexico and some of the Caribbean islands is pretty mid. God gave Mexico maybe the greatest cuisine on the planet and then shrugged as he went south. A few real gems like some South American ceviches and southern cone wine and grilled meats but none of it is close to a good mole or jerk. - Things not going well in Venezuela
