Imagine being such a cold soulless political automaton that you share with someone your deepest desire to radically change your life to best serve the holy traditions that speak to your very spirit, only to immediately walk it back because caring about that kind of thing might negatively affect your public image or whatever the gently caress.

I think that's what it means to be a politician. It's all compromise. Outward image, belief, statements, votes : it's all processed and calculated. If you just want someone unprocessed, you get Trump. Although it's strange to carry a cheeto is unprocessed.

Cue the face-saving "WELL UH THE WAY THINGS ARE GOING THESE DAYS I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED IF IT WERE TRUE ANYWAY" and then a few years later they repeat the story as if it were true anyway, adding something like "people were mad about it so they ended up not doing it, but can you believe it"

they've already started in the article:

‘Hence why I said “this better not be true” but let’s face it the way the world is at the moment and how bizarre everything is, anything could happen, the amount of fake things that get shared on social media is untrue but of course it would never of gone ahead it’s a BRITISH LANDMARK but I wouldn’t be surprised in this world if people didn’t attempt to change it.’

Vanilla is literally what it is.

It doesn't taste particularly like anything and it goes with everything.
Vanilla tastes like vanilla. If you think it doesn't taste of anything and goes with everything, try it on a hotdog. Put it in some mashed potatoes. Have some vanilla ice-cream with gravy.

Wouldn't toppings that normally go on ice cream be good with ice cream as a result of the flavor of vanilla, not the other way around?

Vanilla isn't the base on which other flavors are built :ssh:

Like, if you get unflavored ice cream, it's not vanilla ice cream. It's not even not-made-with-real-vanilla vanilla ice cream. Try unflavored ice cream and you can tell immediately what flavor vanilla is.

"vanilla doesn't have a flavor" is treating ice cream like it's crayons.

Per the Boston thread, it was something like 30 scared, crying Nazis escorted away by police after huddling on the Common surrounded by 30,000+ angry counter-protestors.

I kind of wish I was there but my car was totaled by a hay bale so I went and visited my dad and grandma instead.

Japanese tourism ad criticised for being ‘too sexy’

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X9Gkus1V6wA

quote:

The commercial was made for the Miyagi Prefecture and starred its official mascot, the anthropomorphized rice ball Musubimaru, alongside gravure model and actress Mitsu Dan.
...
In the opening scene, Musubimaru appeared to be bored while lying on the floor. Dan starts to gently stroke the mascot’s head and eventually whispers in a sexy manner “Miyagi, I-cha-u?”

In Japanese pop culture, slowly spelling out the syllables of a word would often connote something sexual. This is further amplified by Dan’s wordplay. “Miyagi ichau” would generally mean “Let’s go to Miyagi.” However, “ichau” also means “to ejaculate” depending on the context.

Musubimaru’s nosebleed reaction to Dan’s whisper also does not help to dissipate the sexual innuendo. A nosebleed in Japanese pop culture often refers to a person having sexual thoughts.

In another scene, Dan is seen stroking the head of a flying turtle. She asks, “Can I get on top of you?” With this, the turtle visibly blushes and it’s head grows in size. Apart from the visual innuendo, there is more wordplay involved.

The Japanese word for “glans” is a combination of “kame” for “turtle” and “gashira” for “head.” Therefore, “kamegashira” which means glans, can also be literally read as “turtle head.”
