  • My favorite mojito recipe:

    • 2 Oz (60 ml) white rum

    • 1/2 Oz (15 ml) rich demerara syrup (2:1 sugar to water ratio)

    • 1 lime, quartered

    • a goodly amount of fresh mint, ~10-12 leaves

    • a little bit of sugar

    • ~2 Oz (60 ml) soda water

    Build:

    Put a little sugar in your glass, chuck the lime and mint in, muddle.

    After you’re done muddling, fill your glass with ice

    Add a splash of soda water (not the whole 2 Oz), rum and syrup, stir until chilled

    Too the glass up with soda water, stir again to incorporate the soda

    Garnish with a fresh mint sprig

    Notes: I really like Planteray 3 star or flor de cana 4 for this recipe. Planteray has an earthier flavor while the flor de cana has a more fruity/tropical vibe. If you don’t have access to demerara sugar, you can use light brown or raw sugar for a substitute.













  • I’ll bite. Treating fascist flyers and LGBTQ+ flyers as the same thing is bullshit. Acting like the only fair thing to do is treat someone refusing the LGBTQ+ flyers the same as this person refusing to spread fascist flyers is bullshit. Reasons matter and it’s bullshit that society has normalized stripping the context and nuance out of situations in the name of “fairness”. She shouldn’t have been punished. We don’t have to generalize, we’ve been conditioned to generalize because it reinforces the status quo. It’s ridiculous that people refuse to acknowledge the threat of fascism in actionable ways because it’s “”“”““unfair””“”“”

    Also, it’s not ok for people to refuse to deliver medication on ideological grounds for an entirely different reason than it is to refuse to disseminate fascist propaganda. Postal workers wouldn’t know they’re delivering abortion medication in the first place as it’s sealed in (at the very least) an envelope that does not provide a description of the contents in a way that would reveal abortion medications over any other medication.
