Station wagons remain extremely popular in Europe (even though SUVs have eaten a good bit of their share). It’s the most sensible if you need more space than a hatchback without all the stupid compromises from SUVs (also smaller SUVs provide much less space than a good wagon). I’d only prefer a small van like a recent Citroen Berlingo, but they are expensive, older ones are not that economical and also not comfortable/“sexy”.
We have a couple things that run in the family. All men in my direct family (so me, my dad and my brother) can twist our mouths in both directions at once, so upper lip one side lower lip the other side, looks funky. We can also do eyebrow dances with moving only single eyebrows but I think that’s more common.
I’d love to hear about her obscure K-pop, or your strange south American alternative, or whatever really, I’m never gonna say no to at least learning about it and hearing it out, if I don’t like it I’ll just not listen to it again.
I really miss maps. Like, not the objects themselves, I could just buy some nice maps if I wanted to today, but I miss the feeling of exploration you got from navigating using one. You’d have to pay attention to your surroundings, get lost and found again a bunch of times, etc. Totally inefficient but it was adventure. By the time I got to adulthood and could really do my own trips we started getting GPS and all that jazz and it’s just not the same making it to an unknown destination anymore.
The reason we cook most meats is because capitalism dictates it should be produced the cheapest possible way, leading to contaminations and other nasty stuff in the meat that require cooking it. Even salmonella isn’t present in raw chicken if the chicken grew in a clean environment eating clean food.
Why so aggressive? I realize my original comment was maybe not clear and lacked context because I honestly just typed it in a bit of a rush without thinking too hard about it, but that’s no reason to put words in my mouth and attack me.
Obviously, wild animals can carry parasites and we certainly started dying from food born illnesses much less often once we figured out to cook the meat, that’s so basic I didn’t even think my comment could be interpreted that way. But that has little to do with the topic (which was whether we can digest raw meat) and ignores the myriad of dishes that are made of raw meat like steak tartare, torisashi, charcuterie, carpaccio, sushi, poisson cru a la tahitienne, etc etc.
The common theme of all these dishes is the meat is of high quality, butchered and prepared well (Vs minced meat full of cow shit because they don’t bother butchering them properly, for example). That was my only point.
Ok buddy, guess I’m dead from all the charcuterie, steak tartare, carpaccio and sushi I’ve eaten in my life and typing this from hell (obviously wouldn’t be heaven, what with the meat eating and all).
Yes that’s fair, I can see how it was interpreted that way. The chicken example I had in mind was a specific one, and the chickens aren’t wild at all just well cared for and extreme care is given to the preparation, I didn’t have wild animals in mind at all which carry a whole bunch of other well known risks, only ones that are farmed in good conditions and used to prepare raw meat dishes every day across the globe.
I drive it regularly when I visit a friend, it’s so funny watching all the comments calling it fake. Well I guess it’s fake in the sense that most Dutch landscapes are “fake” (man-made).
It’s not a city ordinance at all but it is however quite complicated and lots of “grey areas”, the stuff is basically illegal up until the point it magically appears in the coffeeshop, and then it’s illegal over 5g. In any case traveling with it internationally is a big no-no even if it’s between two destinations where it’s legal. This is all very silly of course, hopefully with Germany going legal we’re finally gonna start seeing some progress on the topic, if daddy Germany is ok with it the rest will likely follow.
