Makes me think of horse diving, which was so horribly inhumane.

I remember a movie about it from the '90s when a horse diver (the jockey or whatever you would call it) became blind from the sport. If I recall, the movie tried to make her out to be heroic for continuing the sport. Awful.

Beef tallow makes them much tastier but also adds a lot of saturated fat.

It’s more like if the American Civil War never ended and the union government fled to Puerto Rico.

Taiwan was never unified with mainland China to begin with, anyway. They have no claim over it. Not that that stops the CCP from claiming everything in the Pacific.

It’s already mostly called the Alcan in the US.

I cannot imagine the stress of the position that he is in. On top of the invasion, he knows full well that Trump is not on his side, but he still has to try.

And the video is all about the local PD buying a Cybertruck. Of course.

All this just makes me want to scream.

I can see why they want to destroy government institutions and the economy (deregulate, privatize, take control, profit). But what does us having zero allies accomplish?

Full disclosure: I have not read your link yet, but I intend to.

How can a gardener be nobility? Frodo, definitely could see. But then there are the Tooks and Brandybucks going out and stealing produce and foraging for mushrooms? Not exactly nobility activities.

What an obnoxious website.

Funny, anytime I see a news headline from India, it’s about men from Uttar Pradesh raping women/girls.

That’s as cringy as when some Americans started calling French fries “freedom fries”.

Can someone tell this American what the vaccination rules are in Canada? For example, in the US, you’re supposed to be vaccinated against certain illnesses (including measles with the MMR vaccine) to go to school, but it’s generally really easy to get around that with religious and other exemptions being in place (this varies a bit state by state).

What do you consider to be “roast dinner”?

I didn’t see any reason to assume that the person you were replying to ate at hotels or at places the hotels recommended. I’m pretty sure it’s more common for tourists to eat at local restaurants.

A lot of people don’t realize that Italy is a relatively young country comprising multiple distinct regions and culinary histories.
