Not to defend the haters, but as someone who has like GoW games over the many years, that one photos they shared today left me whelmed.

photos of real potato pancakes, not cultural hashbrowns variations.

text is a loose recipe for potato pancakes

-about 3 cups mashed potatoes
-1 egg
-1/2 cup ap flour (IIRC potato flour can be used 1 for 1. Rice Flour IIRC needs a few tweaks)
-1/2 cup shredded cheese of choice (I prefer cheddar)
one can add green onions, scallion, shallots, etc to them as desired
Mix together into a nasty, sticky batter. preheat nonstick skillet on medium heat, add a teaspoon of olive oil. It's a pain to work with initially but dollop a medium serving spoon or so on the skillet worrying it out to a 3-4 inch rough circle, then treat em like your basic pancake, when you get a nice golden brown skin, flip, flatten some. I like to flip them 3-4 times, just so I don't accidentally overchar them, but get them cooked through inside.
Just like normal pancakes first 1 or 2 probably will suck, as you get used to the timing.
Garnish with some shredded cheese, salsa, sour cream, savory sauce of choice, etc. (I like a bΓ©chamel based chipotle cheddar sauce)

I stand by this (and will continue to make real potato pancakes... as well as latkis, aloo Pakora, etc).

Yes, they are all generally fried in a pan. So are hashbrowns. And homefries. And eggs. Do we call scrambled eggs or an omelet an "Egg pancake"?

instructions below for those who ain't made em.

seems obvs to me that mamdani gets far because of his charm. why do "male self improvement" types always focus on things like looksmaxxing instead of personalitymaxxing or charmmaxxing?

Yes this article sucked. It was very long winded to ultimately make the same tired β€œlet the market do it” argument.

"Mushrooms are drugs" jokes are a staple of Mario humor on the Internet. Not even Nintendo themselves are strangers to this, with a comic in the official Japanese Super Mario World guide using "Luigi is consuming mushrooms secretly in the bathroom" as a setup.

And if you have a large platform, you should be screaming about this. Our country is stripping our citizens of their identities.
