Western food is regarded with bemused horror in China. There’s a retired English engineer who lives there whose wife posts videos of him making the sandwiches he eats for lunch: he has a bit of a following, who refer to him as Old Dry Keith.
Blue Velvet; it has a relatively normal narrative structure and brings in Lynchian themes (depraved evil beneath the surface of small-town America, a blurred sense of time that’s equal parts 1950s as when it was made, and aesthetics that would prefigure Twin Peaks). When you’re ready for something more bizarre, Lost Highway or Mulholland Drive.
There’s a correlation between cannabis use and psychosis, though it’s not clear whether cannabis causes/accelerates psychosis or whether people with tendencies towards psychosis are more likely to self-medicate with cannabis.
They just need to iron out the bugs, which cause a statistical prediction engine to generate output that, while structurally plausible, may not be true. Once they’ve nailed that, it’ll be all systems go.
What about if they just have a bad vibe about them?
Culture, under Starmerism, is a matter for the Invisible Hand Of The Free Market.
Not sure, but by some accounts, circumcision in the UK (outside of religious communities) was mostly a thing among the aristocracy. At one point, they started retaining the services of Jewish mohels who were skilled at it. King Charles III was reportedly circumcised by one.
The US, in contrast, has the weird sexual-hygiene ideas of the Grahams and Kelloggs to credit for its prevalence (supposedly the procedure discourages “self-pollution”, i.e. masturbation). No idea why Australia is orange, as you’d expect the robust Aussies to mercilessly take the piss out of American puritanical hangups.
I have historically gone with PostgreSQL and had no complaints. The licensing issues concerning MySQL also give one pause (Oracle are greedy bastards who will use any excuse to extract money from captive customers, so depending on their properties is to be avoided). Having said that, these days, SQLite is probably sufficient for many workloads and has the advantage of not requiring a database server.
You’d want Gorący Kubek for all your drug needs.
I wonder if they tested this on ridiculously well-endowed rats.
Not to mention two millennia of porn allegedly in the Vatican Archives.
Cats are the figurehead aristocrats of the home.
To be replaced with Democracy Has Had Its Day
There are a few weird historical rules which may be useful. For example, if any of your ancestors were Spanish Jews who were expelled in 1492, you may be entitled to Spanish citizenship. The same might go for Portugal.
Only a decade or so late to cash in on vaporwave
Buddha would agree
Labour’s key mission is to demonstrate to the stakeholders that it is not in any way a party of the left or of actual labour (except perhaps in the US ALEC-state right-to-work sense), so they are committed to prosecuting Tory culture wars to the maximum extent possible to leave no room for ambiguity. See also: their anti-transgender laws, selling NHS patients’ data to Peter Thiel, and the very existence of Wes Streeting as a politician.
It’s a good thing for him that when the average shlub who voted for him finds his quality of life declining, he’ll just blame the wokes, gays and liberal coastal elites for his misery.
