Neoguri ramyun is good. Spicy, but not crazy spicy like a lot of the stuff from Buldak. My wife prefers it with a half bag of spice mix, I dump in the whole bag for myself. Top with some spring onions, spam or leftover roast chicken, shredded cheese and maybe some mushrooms. Nice as a treat, but we try not to make it a habit. It’s a lot of salt and additives.

Buldak is pain, Lee curry is anguish. The latter is from Glico (Japanese). I shared a portion with my wife 15 years ago, and still remember. The horror… The horror…

- Comment on I have an idea ☝️ 3 weeks ago:
There’s actually more than enough resources to go around, but enormous amounts are lost to waste, corruption, inequality and greed. The world isn’t actually overpopulated, but over-urbanized. If it was made more feasible for people to live in the districts, more decentralised and with less waste of resources, human society would look very different.

Harboured a lifelong passion for computers. Having it as my job for 13 years made me lose much of that passion. To the young’uns: if you love something, consider whether you want to separate between what you do to pay for food and bills, and what makes you heart shine.

This is fucking ridiculous. People breaking free from the cages of the privatised web, only to forge new shackles for themselves.

ORGY!! It’s an orgy, where lots of people have filthy sex with their penises and vaginas. Maybe they’ll even bring out a dildo. People planned those, and they were ORGY PLANNERS! Whew, I feel better now.

Gives new meaning to the Norwegian term “morrabrød” (morning bread), which is to wake up with a hard-on.

Because “a Russian”=gopnik from outside Moscow, right? You do realise Russia has 190 different ethnic groups within their borders? Sure there’s racism, but would you say a black guy feels any safer in certain parts of the US? Or let’s put aside petty US and European racism for a bit and look at racism in Asia. Malaysia? Racism is baked into the constitution. Philippines? Oh god, the ridiculous stereotypes. Japan? Don’t tell me you haven’t heard of racism in Japan. India is Olympic level racism. There was no merit to your original statement, and I find it ridiculous that everything has to be turned into a race issue.

The world has to be in an utter state for people to voice contempt for a person who’s simply walking around.

Monks devote their lives to one thing. Many craftsmen devote their lives to one thing. Activists, philosophers, doctors, diplomats, bakers. Devoting your life to a specific thing can be enriching.

Two weeks? If you’re middle to upper middle class, sure. If you’re lower middle to lower class, you’ll get a week, if anything at all, unpaid. Sick? Unpaid. Spouse died? Unpaid. What, give people welfare? Not on my tax dollar, that’s communism!
The US stopped being the land of opportunity two generations ago, and only now people are starting to realize.

Filipino barbeque pork:
Ingredients
▢4 lbs. pork shoulder sliced into thin pieces
Marinade ingredients
▢¾ cup soy sauce ▢½ cup juice extracted from calamansi or lemon ▢¾ cup banana ketchup ▢4 tablespoons dark brown sugar ▢2 tablespoons garlic powder ▢1 teaspoon ground black pepper ▢2 teaspoons salt ▢1 ½ cups lemon or lime soda (7up/Sprite)
Instructions
- Arrange the pork slices in a large bowl.
- Add all the marinade ingredients. Mix well. Cover the bowl and marinate for at least 3 hours. Note: I strongly suggest marinating overnight for best results.
- Fasten the marinated pork together using bamboo skewers.
- Heat-up the grill. Start to grill your Filipino Style pork BBQ for 3 to 5 minutes per side until the meat is thoroughly cooked. Make sure to always baste the BBQ when flipping it over. Note: the basting sauce ingredients are the same as the marinade ingredients minus the lemon soda.
- Serve with spicy vinegar.

- Comment on Crumble in my mouth only 7 months ago:
Reminds me of when I was having a chat with the owner of a company I worked at in London. We had just made ourselves a cup of tea, he got himself a digestive to go with it. He dipped the digestive in his tea, and mid-sentence only half of the biscuit came back up. Stunned silence. The look of utter misery and disappointment on his face stays with me to this day - this was the last thing he needed just then. I suggested it could be fixed by adding the rest of the packet of biscuits and enjoy it as a biscuit porridge - he wasn’t entirely convinced. 😄

A lot of good points here about pros and cons when considering republic vs constitutional monarchy. I was myself against the idea of monarchy for quite a while, but I realize it’s mostly because I was living in the UK at the time and was exposed to how normal people are treated compared to the upper class. In addition, though the British royal family doesn’t have any power on paper, they have vast connections in all parts of the government and private sector with many ways to influence things. Also, the UK was until recently a two party state, which meant almost total power to whichever party won the election.
Scandinavia doesn’t have as much of a disparity between social classes (even counting royals), and what I see here is that the monarchy provides a stability and continuity that we wouldn’t get with a republic. Anyone can lie, cheat and bribe their way to getting elected president, but when you have a dozen different parties with different policies passing laws with a monarch as an anchor, it works out pretty well.
