Fruit is healthy. It’s just fruit.
Baked beans are also just one type of British bean preparation.

They’re pretty telegraphed, but you don’t get iframes in real life. All the gorilla needs to do is sweep his arms and grab you and then he can just rip you apart.

bollybing@lemmynsfw.comto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•The clueless people are out there among us6·15 days agoEuroplugs are small, similar to us plugs. But the bulky schuko is very common in Europe. Europlugs are compatible with schuko sockets and many others.
You can fit two or three europlug sockets in the same amount of space as one schuko or British socket.
bollybing@lemmynsfw.comto World News@lemmy.world•Mother of autistic boy left with £10,000 debt after breaching DWP rules by £1.92 a weekEnglish13·18 days agoIts the overwhelming success of divide and conquer politics.
Back in the 00s British newspapers (overwhelmingly right wing and owned by very wealthy people) were constantly running stories about people on low income benefits supposedly living better lives than hard working normal people.
They were so successful that it was practically common knowledge that the country was full of families who chose to remain unemployed but lived in a cosy house paid for by the state, and spent all their time watching cable TV, paid for by the state, drinking beer and smoking fags, paid for by the state, and maybe also doing a bit of crime.
This supposedly huge group of “scroungers” were the hate target for regular, honest, hard working people, whose taxes were being wasted supporting them.
So high was the public interest in stories about benefits cheats or scroungers that TV shows were made about them like Benefits Street or Shameless. It was seen as one of the great failings of the labour government, an example of irresponsible government spending which exacerbated the effects of the 2008 financial crash.
So when the Conservative government arrived, they made a big deal of reducing benefits and benefit claimants and introducing a kind of bureaucracy designed to make it as difficult to claim as possible. This system resulted in cases like a blind man in a wheelchair having his disability payments stopped and being told by letter that he was ruled fit for work following a phone assessment by someone with no medical training. It has resulted in millions of children now living below the poverty line and often going hungry.
But these stringent measures were broadly popular because most people had been reading and talking about all the terrible problems of benefits scroungers for over a decade.
And the same thing happened with immigration and with the EU. Every week another story misrepresenting some EU regulation like bendy bananas, or a crime committed by an immigrant where his nationality is bold and underlined in the article which makes some comment about uncontrolled immigration. Articles covering crimes committed by white British people don’t mention nationality and get less space further back in the paper.
There was never much prominence given in most newspapers to issues like tax avoidance, or wealth inequality, so most people didn’t talk about it. Their hate was well focused elsewhere. Meanwhile the rich keep getting richer, everyone else keeps getting poorer, and most people spend their energy complaining about something else.
Bethesda pioneered MTX with horse armor long before MS bought them.
EA and Valve pioneered in game ads and loot boxes.
bollybing@lemmynsfw.comto politics @lemmy.world•'Just say yes': Trump begs reporter to accept that doctored photo is real15·22 days agoThe interview makes it completely clear, Trump doesn’t want to move on from the topic until the interviewer agrees that the literal characters M,S,1,3 are tattooed on the knuckles. Not tattoos that could be interpreted to mean MS13, literally “MS13”.
Either Trump really is that stupid that he believes its real, or the Whitehouse is doctoring photographs and telling everyone they’re real like the USSR did, albeit less competently.
bollybing@lemmynsfw.comto politics @lemmy.world•Trump Says Voters Signed up for His Tariffs When They Backed Him25·22 days agoHe said the economy would go up on day one, prices would go down and America would be in a golden age.
He said the economy was doing great in 2024 because people were predicting He would win the election, and then when the economy went down in 2025 he put all the blame on Biden.
I said this in 2016: he doesnt mean anything he says, he just says whatever he thinks in that moment will get him what he wants. He lies so frequently that you might as well just disregard everything he says because it doesnt have any basis in reality.

Then you would only need to heat them somewhere above 100C, and evoo doesnt smoke until 200C+
bollybing@lemmynsfw.comto World News@lemmy.world•Ultra-processed food increases risk of early death, international study findsEnglish21·25 days agoNot true, I use EVOO and it doesnt smoke. Oil goes in with a couple of kernels on the heat, when they pop remove and add the rest of the kernels. Remove when popping stops.
Maybe its a case of lower heat, more time?
bollybing@lemmynsfw.comto World News@lemmy.world•Ultra-processed food increases risk of early death, international study findsEnglish291·25 days agoYeah the typical American stuff is like 10% sugar, packed with additives like emulsifiers and preservatives, and anything that makes the production processes cheaper and faster, made from bleached flour and has most of the fibre stripped out.
If your bread is made from flour, water, salt and yeast its processed food not UPF.
Guns are way more dangerous though. A 14 year old watching some porn is hardly life ruining. How many 14 year olds haven’t watched porn? If they’ve got access to the Internet they’re going to find it.
Its much better to actually properly teach your kids about sex and porn so that it doesn’t fuck them up, than to try and protect them by restricting access to it.
