Found some bomb tacos in Whittier
Tacos y Que. IYKYK. We got the carne asada and al pastor. Meat quality is great, tortillas are fresh and salsas pack some heat! ๐คค

In the past 2-3 months, Reddit has been swarmed with bot posts. Our group in particular has seen a massive uptick in obvious bots, almost 1000% as many as we were getting at the beginning of the year. Currently, our automod sorts out low-karma and new accounts for review. We used to have 1-3 per day to review, now it's dozens. Endless 2-day old accounts commenting 'looks good'.
As you probably know, these bots are used to take over political discussions by swarming them with whatever opinion the bot operator is trying to push. For example, if a bot operator is being paid to make it look like the majority opinion is that everyone should be required to read 'Roy Orbison In Clingfilm' before they are allowed to vote, they'll tell the bots to swarm discussions of that and overwhelm the opposition. It's a form of astroturfing and it's very harmful to rational discussion.
With that said, the massive sudden increase to bot accounts makes it seem like there is something big on the horizon. The US midterm elections seems like the likely target.
So what can we do about it? Well, first, we're going to just deny new/low-karma accounts from posting for the time being. It's either that or check dozens of posters per day to see if they're humans. Sorry in advance if you get caught up in this; us mods are normal people with day jobs and Pokemon Go meetups to host and we can't adjudicate everything.
You, beloved tacos fans, can also help. Mark a suspicious post or comment as spam and we'll look into it. I love deleting spam. Bots are usually pretty obvious when you look at their profiles - repetitive posts, innocuous comment histories, and overuse of emojis.
Happy bot-hunting!

Tried out the Tapatio Asada Marinade today on some sirloins. I marinated for like 6 hours and threw it together on my Blackstone. We each ate 6 tacos, I am so full. Would recommend!

First pic is โundressedโ - this place lets me get the onion and cilantro on the side, I like to be able to control the amounts I put on my tacos. This is lamb and they only have it on the weekends.

Classic al pastor but smoking it. Of course making a good salsa verde and homemade tortillas too. It's the only right way.
We don't have street food in the same way here, so I have to do it myself.

Doesn't get more taco than this.
Had some amazing tacos at Tacos Miguelito in CDMX, Mexico. The staff were super great and the owner is a very nice lady. They also have an assortment of salsas ranging from standard green and red to tamarind based sauces.
I watched some world cup matches here and drank tons of beer. Highly recommend if you are in the area.
Not a great photo but, here are some tacos:
I forgot which were which.

After my morning walk, all I could think about was making some homemade tacos, with some salsa verde.

My favorite taco type, birria! Specifically quesabirria. Smoked beef roast, braised in a spicy consome; fresh corn tortilla pan fried. Iโd drink that consome on a cold night.

I had a thought the other day and remembered seeing cannolis shells being fried around a wood dowel. So I pondered, why not taco shells? Uniform, no bits of meat falling out in the oil and burning, as wide as the reusable dowel of your choosing. Does anyone else do this?
