We have beans on top of bread in Mexico, the difference is we use a birote which is a version of a baguette instead of white sliced bread, add on top of the beans cheese and salsa mexicana/pico de gallo it’s called Molletes.

As a Cuban, I don't want to see beans anywhere near my bread for any circumstance whatsoever.

My mom makes the beans sauce by using some of the water where the beans were boiling, blend it with small amount of boiled beans to make it thicker, add some spices (red + black pepper, mentha, salt) and bake it. This is the most common recipe for baked beans in the Balkan.

[@Atoll-ok1zm]

100 million copies for a game is insane. At least in the non-mobile scene, their sales numbers are stupid. For reference, the most dowloaded game ever, Tetris, has an estimated 520 million. Minecraft is in second with about 300 million. A very sucessful AAA game like say breath of the wild, sold a bit over 30 million.

First off... Two consecutive episodes without hearing the beautiful habibi-balls jokes. Pretty sad. Thoughts and prayers for our favourite Iraqi physician. Second, my inner hipster/ultra-leftist side thought for a small second _"tHe dEpRoGrAm SoLd oUt, tHeY'rE nOw iNvItInG bArElY LeFtIsT MiLqUeToAsT pRogReSsIvE CuLtUraL cRiTiCs!!!1!",_ and then was greatly and satisfactorily destroyed when almost the entire episode was about economic and labour relations on the cyberspace. But jokes aside, I didn't know anything about Tom but the fact he appears quite often on my "Recommended" video section with some catchy thumbnail and some critique on some random KZbinr. Hopefully that would change soon thanks to this video. Third and last, on the topic of the episode: most content creators that rely on Patreon that I've known doesn't come too often to realize that their relationship towards is basically one of a beggar. Great as always.

Don’t be disappointed. That’s the beauty of this. They can take a liberal on a conversation, and no Marxists or socialists, or any left wing person will fall for liberal ideas, there’s nothing that we haven’t seen and thought about before… But some liberals, or right wingers, will see somethings they never actually thought about. We know their side much better than they do. And they only have the same old misconceptions about everything outside their own little world. The curtains can’t hide anything from us, but just a little opening might tear their head apart.
