Well, not “kind” of dark, but really dark. I mean, the cartoon couldn’t be more direct in comparing the “haitian Simpsons” to the jews and other racial minorities in Nazi Germany, with the last panel being a page from the life of Anne Frank.

No, but 1kg of pasta? Are you feeding a battalion?
Yes, that’s the original joke - having been taught in British schools, they learned about Nicaragua and Costa Rica.
Why this is in the school curriculum, however, is another matter, and this thread is pointing out the coincidence that the British empire colonised Nicaragua for like two centuries.
The US is a net exporter of oil, and has been one for the last several years.

Why do you want to increase production if you’re not going to export?
I saw an interesting stat today that relates to this.
I’m in the EU, and this year for the first time my country spent more money buying Chinese solar panels than it did buying gas from the US, which has traditionally been a big national expense.
Putting it another way: the Chinese are selling us fishing poles, while Trump wants to keep selling us fish. Sure, we’ll keep buying fish for a while yet, but not for much longer.
I’m not even considering the climate and all that. It’s just a better economic investment.
But sure, you pump up those barrel numbers as high as you can, up until it comes crashing straight into the ground.
As for immigration, sure whatever. Kick out all the immigrants, but be honest and let me know how many people do you personally know that want to spend their life working the fields all day, or spend days at a time out at sea on a trawler, or mowing lawns for pennies on the dollar.
Because as a dev, I really enjoy my air conditioning and nice comfy office, and probably make more money than half a dozen of those pesky useless freeloaders combined, so you won’t be seeing me doing those jobs anytime soon.
This sort of campaign isn’t designed to sway your average undecided Joe.
It’s meant to reinforce the indoctrination of those already mildly radicalised, pushing them to the extreme. They will inevitably pull along some other inbred imbeciles along with them, and if they’re extremist enough and numerous enough, something like the invasion of the capitol would have worked.
Note: it’s not only morons who get swayed. Elderly folk are especially vulnerable to this sort of explosive statements, they have a tendency to believe what they read or see (on TV or other platforms) disregarding their own better judgement…
Wait wait, hold up. So Disney is providing trips to homeless kids to visit their amusement parks? Couldn’t they think of another way of changing these kids lives in a more… lasting way?
But in case screw those scumbags who took the trips.
If you mean “someone” as in an individual that is posting something they made that happens to contain the song, then I agree with you.
But there are many other uses where there should be restrictions (and need to pay royalties/get licence), like here where it’s being used in a political campaign, or for commercial purposes, or if being posted by a corporation, etc.
You can do anything, and all of those are edible, but pizza topping on rice? Oh man…
Amen brother.
That’s definitely not what came to mind when I read “classic Japanese cars”, my mind went to stuff like the Toyota AE86 and the Miata. And from there, to the likes of the Mitsubishi Lancer, Toyota Supra, Subaru Impreza, Nissan Skyline, all those cars I drooled over when I used to play Gran Turismo as a kid (and still drool over, tbh).
A classic Japanese car? Like those nimble little things that drift down crazy steep mountains and stuff?
Where I work there is a data retention policy, and emails and other forms of communication (internal emails and slack, but even customer calls, etc) are deleted after a set amount of time, which varies depending on the rationale for storing that data.
There’s many reasons to do this - limit disclosure issues in case of litigation, reduce storage costs, comply with PII rules around the world, etc. The guys in Legal have us file these loong ass forms about all this, including where the data is kept, security measures, etc etc etc.
I’m shocked this isn’t common practice everywhere.
True, but it’s less than a 10% difference. There’s a very big chance the recipe will work out either way
Tripping through time, love it
Why the down votes? Bro asking a question and being legit curious, don’t be hating on someone that’s looking to challenge what they know just because it’s trivial to you.
There’s a science article that investigated why the Brits discuss the weather? I’m now mildly curious to know their methodology and conclusions…
I always knew that THIS is how kidney beans looked, I’ve been lied to my whole life.
Hehehe. Thanks for the chuckle!
