Lol no

As someone with an aversion and allergy, Asian and Italian foods are the worst for hidden seafood. I have to be super careful even with “vegetarian” dishes. Why the fuck are anchovies and fish oil in everything?!?!?! To give examples, restaurants loooooove to put non-vegan kimchi in their veggie dishes, and Caesar dressing often has surprise anchovies

Mexico and Canada also love clam juice based cocktails for some reason. I love Micheladas but they never disclose whether or not they have clamato. Caesars are completely off the table for me.

Okra. No matter how you cook it, it’s like eating snot.

I expect it’ll be another center right neolib so nothing substantial

But I would love to see all of the Gestapo dragged out and prosecuted for their crimes

Here’s a metaphor. With technological advancement we’re discovering new stars every day. Does that mean they just appeared?

First you need to obtain Herbs of Blindness from the Woods of Sudden Dismemberment and bring them to the witch in the woods, along with the name of a person she’s never met before

Now you’re starting to get it!

No one is going to claim Maduro was a saint. He was an illegitimate dictator. But the US bombing civilians, invading an independent country, and kidnapping its president while it itself claims to be immune to ICC prosecution is not a good sign of things to come. This event just moved us a few ticks closer to WW3 against the US

One of my Canadian friends is a Venezuelan who fled with her family. I can assure you she’s not happy. She’s intelligent and understands the nuance going on

Most people’s representatives are either in favor of this shit (that goes for both R and D), or too low level to have any significant impact

The visa holders are often the people fleeing the US, and will be especially catastrophic when he starts denaturalizing people and making them stateless while abroad

War, either world or civil. Unfortunately I don’t see any other way at this point

Also using both metric AND imperial at the same time

Looked into it a bit more. It seems it’s not exactly medieval Spanish but just old and really formal Spanish, akin to Shakespearean. Nevertheless, not something you’d hear nowadays. Everyone else just speaks with a Spaniard accent, there’s no Latin American dialects in the movie.

I remember looking up the script a little while ago. Here’s an excerpt

You will see a luxurious banquet. Don’t eat or drink any of it while you’re there

(Fwiw, I’m from Latin America so Spaniard accents all just sound weirdly posh to me, like that video of a British kid complaining about the ice cream man)

You seem like the kinda person who saw the Stormtroopers lining up and said “yeah, I can get behind that”

Neither Smarties nor Rockets nor Sweetarts are taffy like

We have both in Canada. The difference is that smarties are naturally colored, whereas M&Ms are vibrant thanks to artificial colorings

US smarties are the same exact thing as Rockets elsewhere. They’re both sugary crack

AI as a concept is great. It should 100% be used for scientific and medical research.

But modern AI is a tool of fascists that is destroying our environment and causing more harm than good to our society. Anyone who uses it unironically should be ashamed of themselves. It is absolutely killing people’s ability to think.

For those confused by the pic, it’s the Iron Giant. Fantastic movie from the 90s, and incredibly sad and nostalgia inducing. Definitely worth a watch.

But yes that’s a clanker
