This pope is less awful than your average cardinal… the catholic church is so fucking conservative that the pope is still extremely conservative when measured against normal people.
I mean the one you do when you want something easy to do, but not when you’re tired at the point you microwave a frozen-meal, or just cut down a piece of cheese and put it in a bread
In a saucepan caramelize some onions (or at least until translucent), then add a package of ground beef and heat until cooked through (optionally spice) then throw some cheese (ideally a provolone or other neutral cheese) on top until it’s melted… shovel all that into a baguette and enjoy a munkwich.
It’s definitely popular here in Barcelona pan con tomate is a regular dish across Spain. It’s especially hilarious when you get the little condiment container full of tomato & garlic and mini-olive oil bottle on renfe.
Laziness, for me at least, is about effort more than time - caramelizing onions (once you’re familiar with the process) can be done on autopilot in fifteen minutes or less. But for the above recipe, five minutes should be plenty.

One protip is to provide obviously biased coverage of the war in Gaza and threaten anyone who expresses any sympathy for Palestinians (not Hamas, fuck Hamas) with ostracization and legal actions. It’s working a fucking charm for the CBC.

New data reveals Canada's senior population is expected to exceed 11 million people by 2043. This rapid rise in the number of older Canadians will have wide-reaching implications on sectors such as health care and employment, with experts sounding the alarm that Canada is not prepared to handle an aging population.
Nah, it’s a serious long-term solution - at least until we see some major shifts in global economies. I’ve got several African-born coworkers and they’re all awesome at their jobs.
Welp, speaking as a millennial, you might want to start supporting national pharma care, phasing out fossil fuels, and maybe even ubi. A world on the brink doesn’t really get my horny juices flowing.
In earlier decades there was inherently more financial security because corporations were shamed more for being greedy assholes - now we praise greed and shame “inefficiently generous” corporations… that change means that we need programs like pharma-care and ubi to achieve the same security.
For fossil fuels… well, we’re fucking boned. I’m fine, I’m a millennial so I’ll probably be dead before it gets really bad but Gen Alpha is absolutely fucked. I’m not going to subject a child to the utter devastation our political incompetence has pretty much guaranteed.
100%, people who fetishize virginity are fucking weird and people who “preserve their virginity” usually have some weird culty background that they’ll need to work through.
