Why doesn't it say "Woman killed by grizzly bear"? This way it sounds like the two events are unrelated.

Beans! Including chick peas.

I don't live in a third world country but I live in the former DDR and vegan food is rare as hen's teeth. I'm even having trouble finding beans. Best place to go is Vietnamese shops, they're way more into veg.

If it wasn't for rampant consumerism there'd be fewer cargo ships.

Because muh steak.

Which reminds me, I recently had a fantastic falafel kebab.

It's an us vs the patriarchy problem. Which doesn't mean the same as men vs women.

A lot of "pro life" women often turn out to be "I wouldn't have an abortion" women. I've talked to plenty who turned out to actually be pro choice.

"Not all men" is always the wrong response.

Oh, do be quiet.

Och, halt doch die Klappe.

Alan Rickman - lovely guy but didn't take shit from anyone.

Karl Urban - didn't really speak to him, but his PA was very rude.

Kate Mulgrew - amazing lady, very funny and also absolutely lovely.

Most creamer is a bunch of crappy additives thrown together. Get a bunch of syrups and cream or barista oat milk instead.

Intolerant but polite is a great description of sea lioning.

Depends. It's a good alternative when you don't want to follow people on TikTok. Hank and John Green do shorts, there's a Maine lobsterman who does great shorts, there's a couple of people who do very funny Heaven/Hell skits...

It's wonderful in autumn when the mists rise in the evening.

I live in Germany. A fourth of men smoke. They started prohibiting smoking in public places and restaurants at some point and then stopped for some reason. The neighbour below me smokes like a chimney on his balcony and the smoke goes right through my windows. It's 37C during the day and I can't air my apartment out at night. It's disgusting.

But being lame sucks. That's the point. Someone who is paralysed isn't going to say it doesn't.

Being gay doesn't suck so it should not be used to describe something that does.

Pride started as a riot. Women's Lib started as a riot. Peaceful demonstrations achieve nothing.

Misogyny in books. I was reading a Morse book. He described the woman of a couple from dyed hair to hammer toes but had no physical description of her husband whatsoever.

So less than half.

And then you cant sleep and the whole thing starts again?
