@Wim said in I Did Not Think There was. Rule Like This!: There's this story about using hyalonacid to make their crotch more voluminous. I get emails hawking that in my spam folder.

Seems Trump(CF) is pretty serious about maintaining peace in the middle East, having sent an armada there. He warned Iran, yet they killed at least 3000 protesters and have many thousands more imprisoned. What violence will the Head of BoP do with his naval forces?

@Doctor-Phibes said in [I don’t recall seeing such seething hatred for the constitution] President Farage may only be a few short years away. [image: 1769192568082-3561c19d-b76c-4791-91c6-44a6480f886b-image.png] It is possible we may see him as our PM. I don't want him or his dreadful party in power, the worst outcome; but the usual dissatisfaction with the current ruling party will cause a swing of voters elsewhere at the next General election. Sir Edward Davey seems the best option. Another privately educated, Oxford graduate posh boy, often seen buffooning as a man of the people.

For all that Trump is a draft dodging convicted felon and a semi-senile shite, he certainly has a knack of bring neglected important matters to the top of the world agenda. So no force, no money. Joint effort of NATO to look after the melting Greenland territory and its important sea lanes?

@jon-nyc that is awesome. Congradulation to you and Maya!

People have a sticky notion of what prices ‘should’ be. When they say inflation (which is the first derivative of prices with respect to time) what they actually mean is ‘high prices’. Prices can stop rising which stops inflation but are still subjectively ‘high’, so people see that as inflation not having been solved. This burned Biden and it is burning Trump.

Cool bio, epic life!

It's been a done deal, since the existential threat narrative took hold in the general population, that what cheating can happen, will happen. You really can't have it both ways. Maybe look in the mirror if you were an existential threat type.

@Doctor-Phibes Disgraceful. As posted in the other thread, Blair should immediately resign from Trump’s peace scam. https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/article/we-were-the-frontline-canadian-veterans-outraged-by-trumps-nato-comments/

Yeah I would enlist my son for that

Taking into consideration materials used, I still give it only a GCSE grade D

I don't really do headphones.

Made this when friends came over last night, used flat iron steak. Great recipe, much easier to make than you'd think. https://www.foodandwine.com/recipes/steak-diane?hid=0a23f2ba63bbf9b47229183c3b83cfd9e0dd73c9&did=21348985-20260114&utm_campaign=faw-the-dish_newsletter&utm_source=faw&utm_medium=email&utm_content=011426&utm_term=recipe-of-the-day&lctg=0a23f2ba63bbf9b47229183c3b83cfd9e0dd73c9&lr_input=40577cde38bd9fb174f5e012465d59e9291e1f606e9b3de872ea4c9f0db990bc

@jon-nyc said in Screwworms are coming—and they’re just as horrifying as they sound: It is an under appreciated aspect of winter. In certain latitudes at least. This is a bit random but I love doing late fall pruning (or even searching for the buckthorn invasive plant that stays green) since it's so much easier to get in behind all the branches when I don't have to worry about bug bites or spiders!

Another vote for Chiangmai if you are open to mountain view. I didn't say anything before because you seemed set on beach/ocean view. Phuket's ocean view was very beautiful in my recollection, but it has been over three decades since I last been there so my information is outdated.

@Horace said in The Epstein File: Are we all supposed to pretend that a novelty letter from Trump to his one-time friend Jeffrey Epstein is something that will require wagon circling? Trump can plausibly claim to not know about it, maybe an assistant wrote it, maybe Epstein had someone write it to make it look like Trump wrote it. There will be no hard evidence and nothing will come of it. This is pretty stupid. I've reached out to Hanania - and he has apologized, and vowed to stop posting stupid shit. I appreciated it, and forgave him. He's a good kid, if way too racist for my tastes.
