Did they have to get the whitest guy on the Met to announce this?

13·8 days ago- Rolls-Royce - German owned

So that’s not a great track record for our most iconic brands.

okmatewanker@feddit.uk•Some men just want to watch the World burnEnglish
322·20 days agoSo the distinction of Shepherds Pie is lamb, Cottage Pie is beef is pretty modern and didn’t exist when these recipes first appear within our history. Shepherd and Cottage appear interchangeably, with the recipes calling for beef, lamb, pork, chicken, or whatever meat you have on hand. They also don’t include a gravy, it’s pretty much just meat covered in mash potato.
My point is that any time some pedantic chud tries to tell you that you’re doing something wrong, you’re saying it wrong, you’re enjoying it wrong, turns out they themselves are invariably in the wrong. Call the pie whatever you want, it doesn’t matter what you call it, it’s still a yum.
I’m keeping hold of my pixel with GrapheneOS while also keeping an eye on the new Jolla Linux phone. If that achieves even a half way decent experience, that’ll be my next phone. Android is too much work to keep control of your own data.

I remember going to a sci-fi costume party years ago where a friend had glued a Jaffa Cake on his forehead. He was a Jaffa.

Sousou no Frieren@ani.social•"What Sein gets after looking for a pretty mature lady his whole life" versus "What Frieren gets while she's looking for silly spells" • Cre: @wanderjegson
01·2 months agoThe spell Frieren gets from her is so wonderfully useless, I wonder if she took the spell book with her to the northern plateau just in case she met Frieren. Why else would she waste the space? Plus, she is really horny for short, cute girls.

Sousou no Frieren@ani.social•Frieren II: Beyond Journey’s End’s End • Cre: @serialboel

Random miner: “you sure?”
Bitch, did you see that spell?!

It’s the right wing tactic of throwing as much shade on journalists and the press as possible to diminish people’s trust in them.
