Saeculum [he/him, comrade/them]

The smell, the sound of the hydraulics and the crunching. Man, I loved the bailing machine.

Eh, next election is most likely in 2029. I won’t say the poll is meaningless, but a lot can happen in four years and election polls years out from an actual election are rarely ever even close to the actual result.

The working class of Britain aren’t responsible for the crimes of the ruling capitalist class or it’s captive government.

Is it wrong for them to be proud of their hard won food standards?

Also reform just won so you’re totally fucked too.

Reform won what?

It would be a very strangely constructed pc to be able to play a modern 100gb game but have so little storage

Not the case for everyone ofc, but the rising availability of high speed internet makes that less of a concern. If you can download 100gb in twenty minutes, you don’t have to worry too much about storage.

Native European reservation

So offending the state in China invokes the punishment of getting to experience the American reality?

It provides enrichment for the kids, as they figure out how to get past it.

Scares off libs and wreckers

Fortunately, Edie is an unambiguously female name,

Is it? My first glance would assume it’s some variant spelling of Eddie. Never run into anyone called Edie.

It’s not even marginallymighty

His motivations are beyond our understanding

I love the game and completely agree. Apparently, there was a complete rework of the main narrative somewhere in development, with the original idea not including the emperor at all, but instead having a character called daisy, who you’d have a number of dialogues with throughout the game in a dream sequence at the bank of a river.

Daisy being the representation of the tadpole, she’d try to convince you to stay down by the river with her, and the final decision of the game would be whether or not to give in.

Not sure how accurate what I’ve read is, but I like that idea better.

My guess is Canada

Outdoor cats are destructive to the ecosystem, keeping a pet is the exploitation of an animal and is therefore not vegan, and forcing a vegan diet on an obligate carnivore is , depending on how you do it, either pointless or animal abuse.

While I provide no further argument or justification for these points, understand that I am unchallengably correct as I am the one true Marxist.

The internet outside of hexbear is generally hostile to many of our views, so it’s not like we can easily go elsewhere.

I’m mentally old and out of touch with the kids, there are new emojis all the time and I have no idea what any of them mean. I spent all this time learning English and now half of the things people post are some sort of picture puzzle I lack the context to understand and have to guess the meaning of.

Meat is generally spiced more heavily in warm climates because it spoils faster and hot spices both preserves meat by killing bacteria and disguise a certain degree of spoilage.

I would be surprised if the trend towards hot spices in a country that is generally both warm and humid is because of a difference in palette rather than the reasons above.

how much fake seafood do you see engineered out there?

Crab sticks are usually fake, but generally, fish is harder to immigrate accurately than other meats, and there’s less demand for it since people in the west don’t generally eat tons of fish anyway.

Less demand for real fish means less demand for imitation fish, though there is apparently a company somewhere making lab grown salmon and tuna.

The fake stuff (and cultivated meat for that matter) are getting closer to parity every year. You don’t go back to something “for the taste”, if the alternative you switched to offers a near identical experience.
