  • I switched to a French Press recently-ish. Instead of 4 or 5 cups of weaker coffee from my single serve drip thingie, I have 2 strong cups from my French Press and am ready to go. I'm thinking about trying a pourover to see how that is. Espresso is tasty and strong, but I don't think I'd want it NEARLY enough to justify a machine. I usually only do espresso when I'm traveling, makes me feel fancy having a latte in the big city haha.

    All that said, coffee is very individual. There is no "right" answer. If you're happy with drip, than drip is the way. :)

  • So why not use a dripper?

    Whereas a drip just passes through the coffee, a French Press is more of a steep. You get a stronger taste from it than you would on a drip.

    Espresso is a whole other thing, expensive to get into at home. It uses a much finer grind and (IIRC) the water is pushed through under pressure.

  • Funny how Congress "can't just legislate over SCOTUS" but only when it's an issue of human rights. Corporate rights or Capital interests? BULLDOZE THAT DECISION BABYYYY

  • Punish Democrats or Stop Trump? Arab Americans are agonizing over their votes.

  • Also, Democrats had 12 months to decry and act on military responses to peaceful college protests.

    Anybody who says "If Trump wins say goodbye to organizing" is outing themselves as someone who doesn't organize, dems are complicit and supportive of the disproportionate response between leftist organizing and far right militant organizing.

  • I watched an immigrant buy the house across the street and turn it into a compound, build a business with undocumented folk he kept in campers outside his house, and now that its established he ditched the campers, flys Trump flags, and advocates for mass deportation.

    The "I got mine" mentality is strong.

  • This is precisely what I tell Democrats when they get extra faschie about "falling in line" with Harris. They get so mad about being called Blue MAGA but can't stop themselves from using every MAGA behavior in the book.

  • Hello from the great white north

    Fair, I see a lot of Europeans on Lemmy so that tends to be where my brain goes for non-US on here.

    I get real irate about the "must vote dem or you'll never get third party" because its gaslighting. No matter which election, what year of the cycle, there is no time in no way that libs will entertain the idea of a 3rd party. Voting dem only rewards them for moving right, and they use it as justification to sprint even further. Hell, half of Kamala's campaign has been "I'm rolling with republicans."

    Every action the DNC takes is to keep power isolated to the chosen establishment. Kamala recently paid lip service to the need for aid in Gaza and a hold on weapons to Israel, then sent somebody out to do stump speeches assuring that policy opinion hasn't changed, she's still all in on Israel, and she was just trying to shut up progressives.

    This isn't a sudden happenstance, its been a long road leading to this, and Democrats are actively complicit - Fascism is just the end game of capitalism. Hell, Musk just sued an advertiser into paying him for ads. Freedom!

  • Some quick info on American duopoly, since you aren't here-

    Voting Democrat isn't voting against Republican policies, it's voting against them NOW and getting them 5-10 years later once they've let the Overton window shift and Republicans are crazier. That's the cliffs notes of how we got here - Democrats have been arguing for at least 10, probably 20 years, that (however worded at the time) leftists are the problem and use that to move further right to court "centrists" who are just Republicans who don't want the social blowback, giving Republicans the room to pull further into the extreme right. Democrats of year X are basically just Republicans of year X-10.

    "Well if you don't vote Dem you can't get change!" You already can't now. they're half of the two parties who move the goalposts anytime a third party looks like they'll meet the requirements for inclusion, and they (the DNC) went to court in 2016 to have it legally ruled that their charter is bullshit and as a private entity they can do what they want - voters and donors be damned.

    Democrats pay lip service to Trump only because they don't have a platform without "we aren't them." Democrats spend more time and energy bullying leftists for not being onboard than they do trying to beat Republicans. For at least 10 years now, they love to blame us for all their woes, but instead of adjusting policy to capture those voters they move farther right because "it's the left's fault we lost." It's an intentional cycle to forever justify sprinting rightward and to always have a scapegoat instead of admitting they aren't in sync with voters.

    TLDR: Everyone claims blue MAGA are the saviors and the only ones who can save us, but they don't do fuckshit to stop the rise of fascism because they're also fascist, just with a smile. A vote for Dems isn't a vote against fascism, it's a vote for fascism in 4-8 years when all the Dem voters will root for it and call anybody who disagrees the enemy (Like they're already doing now.)
