        If this is true, I envy you for being shielded from the abomination of a measurement system USC is 🥲

        People in Australia still use feet and inches for height even though they use it practically no where else, and I’m guessing most people could not use it reliably in any other context.

        “That guy is 6 feet tall”

        Australians: “Oh, okay”

        “That’s 50 feet away”

        Australians: “What”

        Drives me nuts. I will be that annoying person who prompts people to say it in metres or cm. “I’m 180” (said as “one-eighty”) is just as fast, and in a system we actually understand.

        Ugh.

    There was a mixed beverage called Trump, I can’t remember how it goes but it got Russian vodka in it at least.

      Someone suggested a cocktail once: A white russian with fake gold leaf and a slice of orange peel.

      I made it once without the gold leaf, and it’s quite good. The orange aroma pairs nicely with the coffee taste.

      It’s way too good to be named after mangolini

        They have! I heard (unsourced admittedly) that they help out smaller breweries a lot too, going as far as donating old equipment to help get them off the ground which I think is so cool of them

    Where’s the crushed cheeto dusting? The Trump sammich isn’t official without the cheeto dusting.

    “Now this—this is the greatest sandwich ever created. We’re talking historic. It’s got the best balloney—the best, not that fake deli junk—they say it’s 100% truth meat, just like me. The Russian dressing? It’s strong, it’s bold, it respects strength. Putin himself said, ‘Donald, this dressing is beautiful.’ And the pickle—tiny, yes, but it gets the job done. Tremendous flavor, very efficient. Some people are even saying it’s a perfect sandwich—maybe even the most masculine sandwich of all time. Crooked media won’t admit it, but they’re eating it too, behind closed doors. Everybody wants a bite of the Trump Sandwich. It wins. It just wins.”

    I guess technically this doesn’t break rule 2. But it is getting pretty hard to avoid Trump stuff flooding everything.

    We need to oppose him for sure, but for our own sanity we also need some spaces where he doesn’t feature at all.
