Instead of saying “bless you” when someone sneezes, I quite like the alternative: “shut the fuck up”.

I find this comment to be Jastorf the Mark.
History is yellow/awesome.
English is tan.
I know I’m furthering the immature narrative, butt:
Not this again.
I’m squatting on the landing at the top of the stairs and now need to shuffle off in shame to get some TP for my bunghole.
Sounds great. Love the suggested changes. Do you do anything else with marjoram & grapefruit? It’s not a combination I’ve heard of before but I can imagine it being a nice touch.
I trim the steak into the smaller sizes you can see in the before photo, getting rid of any gnarly bits in the process then cook it before anything else. Cast iron pan, really hot, lightly season the steak and let it char on all sides without taking it too far. I move it round the pan each time it’s turned so the pan doesn’t over-smoke and the steak chars that bit quicker without cooking through. I then rest the steak, wrapped in foil, somewhere that isn’t cold while I cook everything else. Hopefully the steak is perfect when I come to slice and serve it but if it’s a little under then I stir it in with the onion etc for a couple of minutes after it’s been sliced.

I’m not familiar with the games you’ve mentioned but I believe Fire Emblem: Three Houses might be relevant (on Switch). My sister in law was playing it one time we were staying at theirs. I was encouraged to give it a whirl. Had several very late nights honing my team.
I quite enjoy resting a thought upon the pronunciation of a misspelt word. Not to mock the occurrence of the mistake but to enjoy the novelty of the familiarly unfamiliar. Geospatically speaking it provides a moment’s grammatical geospatical sabbatical.
This is in a similar lexical vein to the recent Lemmy post about enjoying nich names.
I don’t know why I’m about to submit this reply as it’s utter nonsense…
Extrapolantaring at its finest.
I can see a reflection of someone sat on the toilet in ol’ Edison’s eyes. Is that an Ikea bathroom mat?
It’s the single most popular cheese in the world.
Seems like a good likeness, must surely be the one. Thank you. Oh and my wife was correct (again).
:)
I don’t want to get dragged into a petty squabble but it must be said that there’s an enormous gulf between having an in-depth, contextual understanding of something as complex as governance/governmental structures; and simply being able to repeat a few top-line sound bites that encompass the general idea of any given subject taught to kids over a few Thursday afternoons.
An average kid won’t have any meaningful interest in the majority of subjects they are introduced to at school. They might find it interesting in the moment, but they’re not going to win many followers if asked to debate on anything with such a shallow introduction to a subject.
My knowledge of Israeli politics is not sufficient to join either side of your disagreement on this thread, though I have heard a couple of conflicting political commentators in agreement that the current state of affairs is not the result of a Netanyahu policy which is in isolation/contrary to the entirety of the rest of Israeli government.
I just found the comment about high school kids understanding the subject to be a bit triggering and unhelpful.
It’s nigh on impossible to know what media and/or commentators to believe. It is an unnerving time. The Hezbollah situation isn’t something that has just come out of nowhere, and the way it’s generally communicated by a lot of media outlets is unhelpful in it’s failure to scratch the surface, leaving readers in a state of helpless panic and fear. There’s a lot of very well informed opinion on the subject out there and it wouldn’t take much for journalists to at least link to some of it; be it books, past journalism, and commentators from all sides actually directly involved in the conflict. Instead we mainly get disjointed daily updates fanning the fear among readers who don’t have enough of an understanding.
We all spend far too much of our spare time as individuals, picking our phones up and doomscrolling. Whether the subject is climate, farming, the economy, health, sustainability, local/national governance, activism, education, neo-liberalism, you name it; rather than reacting to media headlines posted in our echo chambers on a daily basis, proclaiming our despair in disjointed comments sections that get buried every 24 hours: we need to find new ways to engage.
To truly understand a given situation it can take a lifetime of learning about it, yet we bicker between ourselves like we’re the leading authority on the subject. We have the technology available to us, to unite en masse in support of positive changes but we have no leaders. We’re bombarded with information and we all have our three-month-old, one-sided take on what’s going on. There’s got to be a better way.
I’m willing to go out on a limb and say that I’m not the only one who works so much of my time, that by the time I’ve eaten, slept and done basic chores; I’ve got maybe 1-2 hours a day after dark, plus Saturdays to “be myself”, or in my case; spend time with my wife. We don’t have kids and if we did, I can’t imagine how they would fit into my existing schedule. I feel worked to the bone, for little/no benefit to my own wellbeing. Being myself for an hour before bed each day is hardly what I would call having the freedom to disengage from the rat race and be productive for my own/my community’s gain.
It seems obvious to me that the way we live is the problem. There seems to be some very obvious solutions worth trying but we have no hope. We have our half an hour a day to comment online and that’s it.
And we’re the ones who have an opinion… There are hundreds of millions of people who the system have failed, and have no nourishment to their being at all, be that physical, mental, cultural, spiritual. There are entire blocks of society who just consume without conscience, completely disengaged from anything of merit. How do you tackle that?
We need to make small positive steps to communicate more thoughtfully, be less selfish; and consider ways that we can cooperate more both online and irl; as we’re not getting any help from our leaders any time soon.
