#foodtoot I may need help with this: I splurged on some nice ravioli, filled with ricotta and artichoke, at the Italian deli, but I don't know what kind of sauce to make with it. Any suggestions?
Do you have trouble communication metric sizes with Americans?
If so, I have you covered!
I wrote this simple app where you type in a size (e.g. 1.2 meters) and it will output more useful units, e.g. "It is almost exactly the length of 7 medium-size bananas"
@ridicol Methinks the Senator doth protest too much... whatever happened to that old Republican adage, "If you're innocent, you have nothing to worry about?"
#DraculaDaily Imagine you get an email from a female friend who tells you she's been proposed to by 3 different men in one day.
Man #1 runs a lunatic asylum and plays with a lancet while proposing.
Man #2 is American and uses what she calls "slang." Here are his exact words: "Won't you just hitch up alongside of me and let us go down the long road together, driving in double harness?"
The friend explains that she went for Man #3, without really explaining why.

Where Hoteliers Feel Most Threatened by Climate Change
In the 2024 edition of the European Accommodation Barometer, the study has revealed that 41% of European hoteliers believe that climate change will have a high or very high impact on their business in the next 3 years
@Snoro This is a bit misleading. Impact does not equal threat. For example, the Netherlands has been experiencing unusually hot summers consistently for some time now, which I'm sure has had a positive impact on the hotel business. So it's quite possible that Dutch hoteliers don't consider climate change a threat, but a benefit.
This is of course separate from the question whether climate change is a threat generally (it is) and whether hoteliers see it as such (they probably do).
