Citation very much needed. Performative generalisation like this seriously pisses me off and is a major problem on the left.

Regardless, there's zero reason to believe an independent Scotland or Wales or loving Cornwall wouldn't end up just as much a neoliberal hellhole as the UK

His Divine Shadow posted:Oh the stenmurkla. Right, there I am trying to push mushroom onto fearful internet people, and of course I bring up esculenta. I can't help it, it may be an rear end in a top hat mushroom and its era of being regarded a food shroom is decidedly running out, but it's just so very pretty. I don't pick it or eat it and I certainly wouldn't encourage anyone to do so, my appreciation for it is only aesthetic Here are more mushroom pics  A well deep in the spruce woods? Kinda makes you listen for shrill horror film music Many mushrooms grow in these witch's rings or whatever you might call them. I'm sure you've seen them on grassy lawns, starving the grass where the mushrooms grow. If you do, look out for a smallish gilled mushroom with a distinct smell of cloves, Marasmis oreades, a good urban food shroom  Here's an uncommon/rare chanterelle relative, the Craterellus (sometimes called Pseudocraterellus) undulatus. Chanterelles and relatives have this weird naming scheme where the ones that don't have hollow "foots" get the family name Cantharellus, while the ones that are hollow are called Craterellus. What makes this one "pseudo"? My guess:  it's kinda hollow, but not as hollow as its genuinely hollow cousins Here's a very cute baby toadstool  very likely a young Amanita muscaria. In parts of the world, it's eaten for tripping, in others, it's eaten for food. In others of course we steer clear of it

ThomasPaine posted:Citation very much needed. Performative generalisation like this seriously pisses me off and is a major problem on the left. see for me the biggest problems with the uk left are that it's intensely naval gazing, self-pitying and can be incredibly humourless. like a bit of playful bants about how poo poo the english are gets met with proper sour responses. plus barely anybody in the uk left gives a poo poo about international affairs and when you raise yemen or syria and what we're doing in those countries people all but say they don't give a gently caress or they just assume the msm take is broadly correct. these are supposed to be internationalists too lol i mean fair play to places like novara or trashfuture which at least talk about stuff outside the usual boring cycle of brexit/"melts"/poo poo labour MPs/how awful the commentariat and rachel riley are. all that poo poo is good for one or two yuks but it won't nourish your brain or inspire the mind, you know? not even a huge fan of either novara or TF but i think it helps that they have diverse hosts who therefore don't obsess about the same dreary garbage all the time, idk. gh0stpinballa fucked around with this message at 11:23 on Oct 22, 2019 |

I think the challenge many will face when arguing against Scottish nationalism now is that while previously the only real ground it stood on was exceptionalism and nostalgia it now has appeal as a utilitarian argument based on Westminster being truly awful for the forseeable and doing real harm to Scottish people. By illustration (I know they are not equivalent, shut up) few here would argue against a free Palestine. At the moment I doubt I would vote for an independent Scotland if the opportunity arose but I feel closer to doing so than ever before.

Well that was certainly my position in the last indyref because we were neck deep in pre Corbyn hopelessness and an independent Scotland couldn't be worse and might gently caress off the right people. Corbyn changes things, and while labour is run by actual left wingers I'd be hesitant to vote for independence until I know how it all plays out

That being said, if you go out looking for these  And come home with a basket of these  you're nowhere close to the "knowledgeable outdoorsman" you think you are, and in fact should probably never be allowed outdoors at all.
