I could never love an It*lian
?Every time i have to make 20Ib of pasta at work i think "LOTSA SPAGHETTI"
Half of my job in an Italian restaurant is viciously mocking the Italians.
Ayyy we make a da pizza ova heah
The owner apparently was pissed one of the cooks made chili for the soup special cause it's 'not italian' and like...our stuff is Italian American at best and our most popular pizzas are very much fusion, out top seller is tomato sauce, half mozzarella half smoked cheddar, bacon, sausage and caramelized onions garnished with fried rosemary and maple. So we've been saying all the very not Italian ingredient names as a made up Italian translation. Instead of maple, mapoli for example. Pineapples for the Hawaiian pizza are called appleinis.
Man i have 0 respect for traditional cuisine outside of as a source of ideas. I want to try new things and be creative y'know
I was just reading today about this confluence of american racism and immigration laws resulting in a good number of Punjabi-Mexican marriages in the early 1900s and how it led to a unique fusion of cultures and i'm like fuck yeah fuck me up with some Punjabi-Mexican food, I bet that shit's unique af
But certain people would be all "noooo you can't put curried chicken on a taco 😰😰😰😰" (i don't think curried chicken tacos are a thing, I just remember it saying a punjabi Mexican american restaurant had curried chicken and roti on the menu)

A very non traditional idea i had was like I made this chipotle/red bell pepper/pimento puree with basil and cilantro and seasoned it in an attempt to approximate piri piri sauce (the chipotle was too smoky but otherwise it was very good), and that was for some chicken that I made at work as like a last minute condiment to go out on the side. The chicken was marinated in a lot of chili powders and lemon juice. It was supposed to be piri piri chicken but like idk if you can call it that without piri piri peppers
Anyway, it was all really good, and I wanted to take the pepper puree and use it as a pizza sauce, top it with the pizza cheese blend we have, chopped chicken, red onion and idk mushrooms or something else, maybe some parmesan, and finish it with a drizzle of the pepper puree at the end
Idk i think it'd be really good but with all the prep and cleaning i had to do I never got around to trying it out with the leftovers I had
That sounds interesting. I did a vodka sauce but instead of tomato roasted red pepper recently and holy fucking hell did that go over well. I'm Beethoven out hear with this stuff cause I can't taste my own food.

Has she been leaning into the transphobia?
Despite her elimination at the hands of Khelif, Carini said she did not harbour any ill feeling towards the Algerian. "I wish her to carry on until the end and that she can be happy. I am someone who doesn't judge anyone. I am not here to give judgements," Carini said.
I don't buy it personally
Fair, but at least she's not openly terfposting
Content to let others to the dirty work while she does the whole uWu I'm just a wittle woman who got beaten by my brutish and hulking opponent
you are correct, she doesn’t admit to being beaten and was blaming equipment and then nose pain, and got them to nullify the results instead of it counting as a loss, and is reveling in the attention she’s drawing
otherwise she’d actually come out in support and say “hope she wins it all so I can say I only lost to the gold medalist”

If you caught me crying at the end of a loss, you couldn't get me in front of a microphone unless Cheerios offered me a sponsorship.
Didn't she lose after getting bonked in the nose? That'll set off the tear ducts.
Nah shes just a baby
Did she do anything wrong? Cause it seems like the only people mad are people who weren't in the ring.
Theres doubt about her reasoning to quit mid-match as she was given the opportunity to do so before. Its possible and my guess is that she helped fan the flames of transphobia.
She gave up a shot in the Olympics for that? So as an Olympic boxer she's more dedicated to transphobia than boxing? And if she was that transphobic wouldn't she just refuse outnof protest in the first place? This all seems a bit hard to buy
she thought she could win and is dedicated to boxing more than transphobia, but after the big hit she lost all confidence and then went with plan B
the international footage of her getting hit and crying is having far more impact and reach than simply protesting/refusing to fight

Another Barbary victory
Maybe a silly question but: does anyone know how Imane feels about all of this? I can't imagine the stress she's going through with all the 
having aneurysms about the whole thing on social media rn.
I don't even think the Italian lady was transphobic, it's literally just chuds freaking the fuck out
addressing the second part, Italian lady’s coach/corner guy was respectful. said Khelif is a tough matchup but beatable, they were hoping for an easier fight at this stage but had bad luck, and was surprised Carini conceded. he also mentions that the two have trained together in the past and Carini has a particular dislike for Khelif.
Carini hasn’t said anything explicitly transphobic and uses correct pronouns, but there are red flags. she says that she does fight men in the ring but she’s never been hit so hard before. she was asked if she thinks the fight was fair and responds ‘that’s for the IOC to decide’. when asked about what people are saying online about Khelif, she just says she doesn’t want to get involved.
saying that Khelif hits harder than the cis men she’s fought before, Carini seems like despite using the right pronouns and not outwardly dragging Khelif, that she’s trying to make a case for excluding some women from sports for having an unfair advantage.
She never once acknowledges that Khelif won fairly, or denounces the mask off bigots calling Khelif a man. At best she’s a spineless sore loser willing to be used as a tool for the worst people imaginable to beat trans and intersex people with.

it’s early and possible that this is a result of being hypercompetitive and still griefstricken and processing getting knocked out after getting so close. seems unlikely but would be great to see some pushback from her against what’s happening.
It's worth noting that she's not even trans. She's AFAB. So a bunch of idiots are just transvestigating a cis women.
that and being racist, yes
you are right it’s worth noting for those who don’t know that the POC is a cis woman with a genetic condition that comes with slightly higher testosterone levels
(which is a little funny since ‘testosterone’ looks like it should be pronounced like an Italian pasta dish)
but Olympic-level athletes are lousy with genetic advantages and the existing gates in place actually work well
Yeah, that's like demanding we don't let people over 6ft play basketball. Sports are inherently unfair.
