Accurate depiction of asking an old guy anything in a pub really

Is this before or after the Russians imported the name of Vauxhall station as a generic word for "railway station" into their language

-Goodwin canvassing, probably

HO THERE, FELLOW YEOMAN. MAY I TROUBLE THEE FOR FIVE MINUTES OF THY TIME? I HAVE AN OFFER THOU MAYEST BE INTERESTED IN, WHERE ALL YOUR DEEPEST DREAMS WILT BE FULFILLED, AND YOU WILT STAND AS THOUGH A LION AMIDST THE SHEEP

"Replying to @grok" is the funniest part of this imo

You dont even have to approve of it politically to see what I mean. There is a sort of beauty in diaspora time warp that is worth recording

Look, I'm not being funny, but I would have /loved/ to visit Miami in the 1970s just to soak in the atmosphere.

Oh they got us there. And to be fair I have always thought the vibes at some of those would have been spectacular

The YouTube videos of how they are made are spectacular btw

When I finally get a swish city planning job I am so going to fly home every couple of months like I don't believe in climate change

I haven't been back for specifically mushroom gathering season for my entire time living abroad and it breaks my heart truly

I can only speak for Lithuania, but these are our chief two. We also love balandėliai (what the Poles call gołąbki), potato kugel, and more conventional dumplings

not being funny but brits of all people should be cautious about restarting food discourse

wow haha ur so funny

I don't understand how all of you aren't apoplectic. Their existence constantly irritates me. It's nonsensical, regressive, it diminishes all of us, it turns us all into peasants forced to our knees. It is a permanent burning itch under my skin that I can never get rid of.

That every person in Britain is not clamouring for the utter destruction of the monarchy and aristocracy here, in the 21st Century, in the future year of two thousand and twenty six, is the one thing that boggles my mind the most about anything.

Are people still talking about how wonderful and lovely the queen was when she was literally covering up for her literal paedophile son who literally abused children. That she knew about it and pretected him, using the fortune she stole from all of us to do it.

Fortunately, most of this website has correctly accepted by now that like a hoover is any vacuum cleaner, any post is a tweet.

The whole setup of a parallel world that interlaces with the real world both too tightly and too weakly at the same time would have given him a brain tumour.

Oh, don't get me wrong, she's not a bad literary creation (notwithstanding who JKR is as a person these days) but Tolkien would have frothed at the mouth at the very concept of JKR's writing (for reasons unrelated to who JKR is as a person these days)

Tolkien's take on Shakespeare was famously "is that it"

he would be delighted about Gríma but he would despise being put right next to JKR

This is literally just the Soros family, who slap, actually

stalin himself was literally a paedo

and there we have the answer why James wants to gut environmental protections to secure planning permission for data centers - he is in fact in the thrall of an idiot industry

An understated absolutely vital element of what makes Morrowind such a good game is in fact the dialogue system. Tbth I'd be ok with a modern game foregoing voice acting in favour of industrial amounts of information being vomited by you clicking a conversation topic

Yeah I obviously disliked him already on account of Lots of Things but I was genuinely surprised by this nonetheless simply because it's not exactly a predictable form of being awful

Random thing but does someone have a quick read on the history of the "imperial tricolour" flag in Russia (I.e. black gold white)? Either English or Russian works for language. I'm just curious about a general overview of why the Tsars promoted it at the expense of white-blue-red and then dropped it

It's actually really funny how when he said that about Russia he got closest to understanding how the rest of us feel, but because to him we are chattel and not people, he thinks his feelings are valid and ours aren't lol

To paraphrase Vladimir Putin, what is the point of there being a world if there is no Lithuania in it
