God, I forgot about that. I used to work in an office full of Farage fans and that was one of the most common threads back in 2016. There was a large amount of open racism, too. It was an experience.

Farage and his Reform party exists. So that's at least one MP that I could see saying yes.

And the agoraphobes across the world suddenly felt justified.

Mmm sounds culty.

How is that legal?!

The leopards are eating well. I'm actually worried about leopard obesity. So many faces to eat.

"The leopards would never eat my face!" smh

So what I'm hearing is, we should all be very mad with the Americans?

Has he seen Chicken Run, by any chance? Loved that film when I was a kid.

But seriously, no. Kids are just weird and make leaps we don't. So he could just be expressing himself in a way where adults can't connect the dots.

I think there's something similar in terms of initial patent rights, but it's awful that people who need these meds are footing the bill. I realise now that I have been spoiled by the NHS. The idea of charging people for medical care that they need is unthinkable to me. It's heartbreaking.

Wow, damn I had no idea. It's criminal that they're allowed to price gouge people like that!

I'd understand if it was some frivolous cosmetic thing made from anglerfish caviar or something equally absurd, but this is lifesaving medicine. I wish terrible things on the people who set those prices, that's pure evil.

Does the US not have generic unbranded drugs?

Generics are literally a fact of life over here (UK) and the fact that Americans are going insane over them is wild to me. The NHS will prescribe generics as standard because they're cheaper to supply and they're literally the same drug.

My mother has a whole goody-bag of medication and there's not a single brand name to be seen. They've kept her going for >10 years.

Sun, moon, and something-else-I-can't-remember signs.

"Weird" feels like such a mild way to describe John Harvey Kellogg.

We need Norwegian ostehøvels. They give perfect cheese slices. Shame they're so expensive to import.

Oh look, another reason to not use Shitter and also to loathe Musk. I do love adding them to my mental list.

Not surprising, though. Musk has that kind of vibe.

White person (UK) here. Honestly, you're overestimating a lot of us.

My own mother will just add curry powder, veg, and chicken chunks to a pot of chicken stock and call that curry. It is an abomination. I haven't eaten it in years and it haunts my nightmares still.

I love raisins in my curries because they actually add depth of flavour but when they're in something like granola, you just know it's filler. Also it ruins the texture if it's in something crunchy because of the sudden squidge and I hate how these little fuckers get stuck in my teeth when they're dry.

Sorry, I think this post unleashed years of raisin resentment. But yeah I completely agree that people who don't like them in curries or other savoury dishes are missing out because that slight sweetness is wonderful.

I'd say the American one because as a British person, I haven't sung ours once in my entire life but Americans seem to sing theirs for everything.

Hate her, but can't disagree that the two-child benefit cap is fucking awful for families that need the help. Those kids don't deserve to be punished for being born. Something, something, broken clock.

Note: I do not have or want children, I just have empathy for them because I grew up in poverty myself. I still think she's vile.
