  • What about the respect given to an individual because of its status in society? There are certain people that have a base level of respect because of their seniority, job or role during a period of time.

    Those people may or may not show the same amount of respect towards others as is shown to them in general. And I dare say, there will be people willing to defend them even if they are not up to expectations, just because they have that seniority/job/role.

    Take for instance:

    • Some politicians
    • Some celebrities
    • Some senior members of an organisation, like CEOs, CTOs, senior managers, etc.

    Exactly! I would add that you can still use “no binario” or “no binaria” in a (somewhat) respectful manner. For instance, you can say “persona no binaria” (non binary person), “comunidad no binaria” (non binary community), because both nouns are feminine, you can use the feminine alteration of “no binario”. For masculine I would go with “su género es no binario” (its gender in non binary), since gender is masculine and “su” doesn’t imply any gender at all.

    Again, not an expert just another fellow native Spanish speaker with a bit of a geekiness about languages.



  • Risotto. I make one with panceta and mushrooms that can’t be easier to make. And the principle is to just stir for 20’ or so.

    Ingredients (serves for 2)

    • Risotto type rice (Arborio, Carnerolli or similar) 150 gr
    • Chicken broth (homemade, if store bought then liquid, never in cubes) 1 lt
    • Onion 1 medium
    • Panceta 200 gr
    • Mushrooms (fresh) 200 gr
    • Olive oil
    • White wine
    • Parmesan cheese (grated or in very small chunks) 50gr
    • Butter 20 gr

    Prep

    1. In a pot, put the broth to heat. It’s not required for it to boil just to be hot.
    2. Chop the onion in very small cubes, as small as the rice grain if possible (so when you are eating it, you don’t feel it)
    3. Chop the panceta in cubes (no bigger than your thumb)
    4. In a big pot, at mid heat, put the panceta to brown and defat
    5. Once the panceta is brown and you have a good fat source at the bottom, remove and reserve the panceta
    6. Put the onion in the pot and use the same fat from the panceta to sauté it. If you need more, you can use olive oil.
    7. Once the onion is almost translucent, put the rice and pearl the rice. From now on, you should always be mixing the rice with a big wooden spoon or similar. Never stop stirring. This will make the rice to let all the starch go, which will make your risotto creamy.
    8. Once the rice is pearled, pour some wine to deglase and keep stirring.
    9. Once the wine has evaporated and you hear the crackling, pour some broth until the rice is submerged, keep stirring.
    10. Once your broth is evaporated and you start hearing the crackling again, put the panceta, the mushrooms and pour some more broth. Keep stirring.
    11. When you see that you are low on broth and hear that the rice is crackling, check on the rice for the cooking point. It should be al dente, meaning that you should be able to bite it and feel some resistance, but it should be very edible. If you still feel it too hard, pour more broth and keep stirring.
    12. When your rice is done, take the pot away from the fire, and put the parmesan cheese with the butter. Stir and mix until it’s uniform and creamy.
    13. Serve hot in small bowls or similar plates
    14. Decorate with olive oil, fresh grinded pepper and parsley.



  • If you only take calories intake as the sole driver, you’ll have a very bad diet.

    Yes, they have the same calories as potato chips, but the nutritional profile is insanely better. If you look into this comparison, While it’s true peanuts contains more fat.than potatoes, they have less than half the saturated fats than potato chips. That’s the kind of fat you have to avoid because they affect your heart and body composition negatively.

    Also, they contain a huge amount of proteins and dietary fiber. Just by taking 200gr of peanuts, you’ve met your good fats and proteins intake without reaching your calorie intake. And you are still 1/3 down in fiber. Put some celery there, and you are sweet.

    And if 100gr of peanuts is not satiating enough, maybe you should recheck your diet. I usually have 30 to 50 gr as a snack in the afternoon, and I’m set until dinner. And I’m having a daily calorie intake over 2400 cal.





  • If true, that actually speaks volumes. Like what kind of guy removes a dead man, at some point revered, from the list of co-founders. What do you lose by not doing it? What did you win by doing it? I mean, the odds are you lost more than anything. Besides, he should have been your partner. Even if you did for the cash, what about all the moments you had with him? Was Aaron such a piece that you’d rather have him erased?

    I seriously can’t get it.
