Remember. The RSL is a casino, and let's not kid ourselves that it isn't.

The Brits will lap it up. I lived there. The jokes about thelr food is pretty spot on across a broad swipe of the population.

Privacy respecting pinterest alternatives (lemmy.ml)
 

Hi everybody, just checking in to see if there's anything like the subject is requesting.

I really love the pinterest back in the day, but it's privacy abuses are obscene.

And I just want to know if anybody is aware of anything that is a better option for someone who's more privacy focused.

Thank you so much.

This is the way. Fuck these pricks, taking it all and giving nothing back.

Wow. I had no idea.

I guess without her contributions, I would definitely not have got laid as often when younger. That's not even a joke.

We all owe this lady our gratitude.

The environmental devastation will be phenomenal.

That was hard to read, knowing the damage it's going to do.

Question about Australian towns in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 month ago

That's exactly the point.

These young men were told that invaders were coming. To hurt the kingdom.

That they must defend. They must protect their mothers, brothers, sisters and country.

They must be brave and face the incoming enemy.

They thought they were doing the right thing.

They were slaughtered. They're dead. Their family grieved. They built memorials.

They didn't go to murder. In their hearts, they were protecting their families. It's worth studying some history on this. From a soldiers perspective. From a mother's perspective.

Why do butchers have yellow breadcrumbs on their meat? (lemmy.ml)
 

I've noticed and I've never really understood why that when you buy any meat that is crumbed from a butcher in Australia, it is always or nearly always yellow in colour.

Why do they do this and where does the yellow colour come from?

Will microplastics in our testicles be an issue? (lemmy.ml)
 

There was a finding that all males have microplastic particles in our testes.

It became a meme.

Everybody laughed.

New meme overtakes old meme.

We forget about our plastic testes and move on.

But, is there any issues going forward, that anyone is aware of?
