    Me neither but I’m ok with that, not really worth trying since there’s enough understandable stuff around.

      European countries start national stockpiling of olive oil.

      The average european already does that.

          For how many years do you stockpile? I try to buy a yearly supply and often get overflow from one year to the next.

            Not years but about 6 months worth. I’m very picky with my olive oil so if I find a good price in one of the brands I like best I’ll buy some… bu I usually alredy have a ton at home lol. But I use it everyday, not only to cook and for salad but also in the bread or the popcorn. My favorite food is Olive Oil

              I live in olive country, so I try to buy straight from the producer and bottle it at home and I also use it daily as well, even for baking sweets (olive oil cakes are a thing here).

        That was the point of my joke. I mean, if after getting hit, the straps failed and the chestplate fell down, it would be a malfunction.

      Bill Gates will work with FEMA to engineer a brain worm that is more effective than vaccines. There will be an “anti-worm” movement where soccer moms buy Russian vaccines on the dark web with dogecoin.

      Had the same reaction, but I quickly realised I’m happy about my ignorance here. My gut reaction is that it’s extremely US-centric and stuff you’d need to be an always online, mainly MSM, kind of person. Nooooope, thank you.

    Trump dies but comes back to life

    Technically this could happen if he’s put on cardiac bypass for heart surgery.

      If he does die, do you think the establishment would tell anyone? They’d AI his looks, speech and Twitter posts and claim he’s done appearances on TV for years.

      Queerbaiting: Pretending or hinting that you may be LGBT+, in order to trick people into liking you more, or to pay more attention to you or your work. Sometimes this is a way to try to get LGBT+ fans, sometimes it’s trying to get straight people who think LGBT+ people/acts are sexy.

      Arc, as in story arc of a tv show or book series: So, it’s for a set period of time, and then they move on, not really acknowledging again.

      Pop acts have done this a lot.

              There are different levels of scummy that are considered socially acceptable, and some marketing doesn’t rely on tricking you.

              Think of the different ads you’ve seen:

              “Our furniture is locally made by unionized workers. Everything is made using young trees that we grow ourselves, or reclaimed wood”

              Is different than:

              “On Friday, our pasta is buy one get one free”

              Is very different than:

              “Hey gay, it’s June. You know what that means? It’s time for us to change our logo to include a rainbow and maybe even have an ad (in some countries) with two woman who might be married if you read between the lines. Maybe you can ignore that we donate money to political groups that are anti-LGBT, or that we fire queer people at a higher rate than straight people.”

              Or

              “Hey kids, I’m a clown! Your parents don’t love you if they don’t buy Clown brand bleach. Kids without Clown brand bleach are poor, unlovable losers, and they’ll never have any friends. Now in comes in cherry, and blue raspberry!”

      Well Billie Eilish and Chapell Roan have been releasing songs about cunnilingus and heavy petting lately that have been ok in specific circles which keeps them employed so in order to get in on that and also hopefully capture so more name recognition Arianna Grande will put in a show of being queer and then act upset about backlash but then rise above it to state that it doesn’t matter making a big song about their bold new life choice, and then drop it after snapbacks come back without really ever talking about it ever again.

      No, no, it’s queerbating. She’s obviously going to open up to hawk girl on the view about what she flicks the bean towards, and then market the ‘slime’ to all the insane people…

      and the video promoting it prominently displays her wrists with snapbacks on them.

      I think I hate myself for this mental image.
