Cutting out just backstrap is illegal in my state- I took backstraps, fore and hind quarters, the neck, and a few odds end ends. Basically everything except the backstrap went into the grind pile.
IME ‘ok’ is a good outcome from home brewing. Mead has tended to turn out better than beer, though.

I’ve made mead before, and beer. It’s not a regular thing.

I mean, I don’t know anyone who claims they decided to turn their life around after confession either. The usual claim is deciding to go to confession after making up one’s mind to turn their life around.

But that’s exporting fuel, not power.

but younger generations of Right Wingers are just going to not support Israel
IME young red tribe normies(far and away the most important demographic for determining what ‘younger generations of right wingers’ support) often don’t think the events of eighty years ago oblige us to pick any particular side, but usually have a superstitious terror of opposing Israel as bad juju/bringing the curse of God, or are prejudiced against Israel’s enemies, or support the outpost of capitalist democracy even if they don’t want to pay for its wars, or….

I mean, do you really think there’s going to be another Holocaust? Antisemitism is a joke among westerners who matter; you’d be surprised how quickly attendees at E Michael Jones lectures drop it at the slightest excuse.
Iran officially calling for another Holocaust is an irrelevancy. Jews will be safe in the west for the foreseeable future, at least as much as ‘white people’(and BTW I agree with you that ‘white people’ are not a group that has a solid argument in favor of needing an ethnostate, although I suppose some white ethnic groups probably do, but not whites as a whole).

Ok, but the Jews aren’t the only ethnic group with a long history of persecution.
Now that I think of it, another ethnic group whose entire history consists of persecution is one of Israel’s immediate neighbors. Do the Maronites have the right to build an ethnostate and maintain it at whatever the cost?

Normie cons are pro-Ukraine because they find their situation sympathetic, and pro-Israel out of some combination of Islamophobia and alignment with US foreign policy.
I’ve literally never seen a Pro-Israel/Pro-Russia poster in the wild, probably because those people are all posting on Hebrew or Russian language websites.
I’ve seen them before. They’re usually conspiracy theorists who don’t like Muslims.

Gaza is 99% Sunni Arab already, and was before the war.

The court specifically says that the doctor did not claim that the exception applies?

Medvedev would likely not be any different from Putin, and Zelenskyy knows it. While Zelenskyy’s replacement would probably be more radical if anything.

While that’s a strategic Russian victory- at least in the short to medium term- it’s also a huge lift, Germany knows what side of the bread is buttered. You can expect Europe to stick with the states despite the usual grumbling in every scenario short of unilateral U.S. nato withdrawal or civil war.

I don’t think it makes Putin look weak. Everyone knows Biden’s not going to be president for long and that this policy is not long for this world. Putin shaking it off because Trump will change it if he does makes him look pragmatic more than weak.

Grinders are disassemblable for cleaning, for obvious reasons. Cleanup is mostly a wipe-spray-dishwasher if applicable thing. That being said, some mixtures are much messier than others- the liver in boudin, and eventually the rice, take flossing over anything hard to get to.
-
The meat to spice ratio can be a few grams off without messing anything up; taste is pretty simple to get right as long as it’s mixed thoroughly and evenly, although offal as an ingredient can be difficult to manage. Consistency is much trickier because the meat to fat ratio is much more tedious and particular. Sausage is almost definitionally much fattier and saltier than most meat, and exactly how fatty or salty is a major driver of what you wind up with.
Fortunately I was using venison as the meat, from which all the fat is removed as part of processing, allowing me to straightforwardly weigh beef suet or pork fat cap in. In the past, when I have made boudin, or used commercial pork, the correct fat percentage has been much more difficult.
Cutting the fat out of the venison was tedious and messy and took more time than the rest of it combined. I find it a satisfying hobby, if definitely ‘work’.
- You would not, as a rule, use ‘good meat’ for sausage when you have to pay for it. Scraps, parts that otherwise don’t get eaten, trimmings and suet+ seasonings+ fillers. This tells me that it is not cost effective to buy good meat at full price for sausage making; I’ve certainly never tried.

Texas has limited ability to export power, but exporting reactors and critical equipment/parts, that it can do- as well as ensuring maintenance and operation personnel(who will be 90+% red) are trained in Texas.

There are lots of people who claim to have run into Arabs- like actual from the Middle East Arabs- pretending to be Mexican or Guatemalan to get into the U.S. and behaving in ways that are more suspicious than usual for illegal immigrants(most of those who report it are illegals or adjacent to that community themselves). My guess is that most of these are just economic migrants whose odd behavior can be chocked up to cultural differences, but it’s certainly not implausible that there are eg Iranian assets hiding among the illegal immigrant population for whatever purpose. Obviously the lack of terrorism indicates that they’re not committing mass terror.

The South African government was widely condemned and sanctioned for its campaign against the ANC when the ANC was an actual literal terrorist group.

Finding a pro-life jury in Dallas or Travis county takes work, but it’s very doable, and while it would be controversial Texas doesn’t need to care- it’s not actually illegal to exclude jurors who are likely to nullify the law.

And being seen to address the power grid issue(whether or not it’s an actual issue) is important for legitimacy.

Why don’t you build your homeland in the old Pale Of Settlement instead? It’s more fertile, has more natural resources, more space, and is not in the middle a powder keg of religious hatred which will require you to be a nuclear-armed siege state for the rest of your national existence?
I have some bad news for you about current events in Ukraine.

Deer processing is going well- mild sausage is all stuffed and spicy sausage is just waiting on a new sausage stuffer(a minor hiccup was when I dropped the nozzle on my old one and had to order a new one). Chili grind is all made and the steaks are cut out and packaged.
I do this every year and it’s always an experience.

It’s an odd place, but it’s also the case that the nuclear push seems oddly export oriented.

Israel is not committing a genocide in Gaza, they’re winning a war in an urban environment.
A source of mine in federal law enforcement claims the cartels already regularly get their hands on brand-new current Russian issue weaponry. This is probably due to corruption, rather than Russian policy, but it still wouldn’t be much of an escalation to give them weapons.
