Honestly, I'd say this depends more on the narration than the content. A good narrator can make any topic interesting, a great narrator can do that and make it soothing enough to fall asleep to.

Okay but this post would imply Trump is white.

I'd need to crank up the color temperature on his photos quite a bit to achieve that.

Oh no, that was the first term.

Him and his cronies have a plan now, and that plan is Project 2025. We're fucked. We're very fucked.

... in fact, I think in january I'll be signing off, I think it's best I disengage from the internet/socializing and just hide under a rock for the next 4 years, or until it's safe. Or until I get disappeared, whatever's first.

I don't have any really good friends and judging by the conversation I just had with my family they aren't taking this seriously enough to want to help me leave.

they're going to sit by and wait for it to be too late for me to get out.

I feel physically sick right now. I don't have the money to leave. I'm an openly gay man. We're headed for a christofascist dictatorship. I just wanted to stay alive long enough to bury my mother, that's all, and I probably won't get to, not in the new American Reich. I know Harris winning wouldn't fix every problem this country has but please fuck not like this

Just start swearing at it and it will usually connect you, the nastier the better.

Compromise, then?

Perhaps every other night you can cook from scratch, and cook as she likes on other days. Or, you could try to replicate the flavors she's looking for in your cooking. Involve her, have her try tasting some sauce you're making or whathaveyou and then try to see if you can nudge the flavors in a direction she likes.
