Defecting to the party whose own canvassers openly drop the word ‘Paki’ when think no one is listening is certainly… a choice.

The odds of a face-eating leopard moment are pretty good all round.

Like it or not, Twitter is still the de-facto place for breaking news stories. You just have to sift through the dross.

As much as Mastodon is a far nicer and healthier social platform, it has a long way to go before it gets anywhere close in this particular regard.

Oh, don’t get me wrong - Budweiser/Coors/Michelob etc. are all awful. However, most US states have good local breweries and craft beers. Lagers are generally not as popular as IPAs, but you can still get good ones. Admittedly, this varies quite a bit depending on where you are in the US.

Samsung phones have also had this option for quite some time.

Apparently social services forcibly removed the children from the family, which their father says was done unjustly and based on false claims of parental abuse. That’s according to Twitter, so the details are still somewhat up in the air.

It’s not the job of the local police to patrol private neighborhoods on request – that’s what private security is for.

The outrageous thing here is that public money is being used to fund it. They have the proceeds from selling off lucrative real estate on stolen land - why don’t they pay for it themselves?

  1. No it’s not.
  2. I already use salted butter for toast – American is still worse.

As a cooking ingredient, maybe, but if you’re using butter on toast, bread, etc. then Irish/French/British butter is clearly better.

Also, the superiority of European chocolate isn’t to do with the cocoa content or the sweetness - it’s just creamier and has a smoother texture.

I’ll agree with you on the beer, though.
