Freedom of speech is protection from legal restrictions, not protection from criticism from David Tennant
It's the worst thing I've seen all day but it's not worse than the human brain organoid computer from a few weeks ago
Some of Labour's recent policies (and stances on Palestine, trans people, etc) are scary and harmful. It's emotionally hard having to vote for a party that has spoken about removing your rights.
Pragmatically though: I know voting Labour will still shift things towards being better, even if that "better" is way worse than I wanted, and I would never begrudge anyone for voting for them. There's always more we can do in-between elections anyway
Surprised it's only 16%!
It's just getting more and more difficult to feel okay voting Labour. I know splitting the left wing vote isn't tactically smart, but voting for labour isn't even a left wing vote anymore :(
(I'm still pro-tactical voting, I'm just doing it with more frustration than ever before)
Thanks for this, really helpful stuff :)
That book looks great! I love how-to-cook books instead of just recipe books (i.e. Salt Fat Acid Heat or Sohla's Start Here) and that looks like a great BBQ version.
wrt food safety, I should be alright! One of the reasons I haven't BBQ'ed much in the past is that I'm very safety focussed.
Another reason is that I don't eat much meat unless I'm planning on making it really delicious! Meat thermometers will definitely help (with both deliciousness and safety).
The Number 1 reason I don't BBQ more often is that my garden is down a ladder at the moment! Once we've got stairs, (and meat thermometers!) there'll be nothing stopping me :)
Did you have any advice for cooking for veggies? (a lot of my friends are vegan and they deserve good food too!)
It's surprising how climate change gets co-opted into sinister ideals. It's a similar problem to the rise of ecofascism - an unbelievably pervasive school of thought in environmentalists (who you would hope were leftist!)
There is no technology on earth that can make storms of this scale. Cloud seeding doesn't add any water to the cloud. At most, it causes a very slight increase in rain. If you accidentally cloud seed "too much" you nucleate lots of ice crystals within the cloud, making many tiny ice crystals (which don't precipitate at all).
They didn't seed this cloud - but it wouldn't have done anything if they had.
it's a feminist movement, in backlash to misogyny and pro-natalism in South Korea (it's becoming more widespread, though). The 4Bs are the "four no's":
- no dating men
- no sex with men
- no marriage with men
- no childbearing
It gets a lot of pushback and is called selfish etc. but women are very angry & upset that the government only sees them for their reproductive use, and it's reasonable to not want to date someone who doesn't view you as human.
Surprised to see none of the comments mentioning the 4B movement
I saw the bakeries one first - fooled me into thinking this was sincere haha
There must be a joke somewhere about them identifying as "politically homeless" whilst encouraging transphobic ideals so far that they'll vote Reform. Completely bizarre
