Apparently mealworms are going to be the next hot food source in Europe, now that they've finally been shown to be safe to eat millennia after SEAsia figured that out.

The worms themselves can digest polystyrene too.

Keir Starmer is having to self-isolate for the third time in four months after the Labour leader was told he had again come into contact with someone who subsequently tested positive for coronavirus.

“This morning I was notified that I must self-isolate after coming into contact with someone who has tested positive for Covid-19,” Starmer said in a tweet. “I have no symptoms and will be working from home until next Monday.”

Yeah I've been smoking the same bag of weed since late summer, and made $800 on the leftover bitcoin. That's never happened when I bought that one pack of fags when I was 12

Only two contestants left! Here is Doom's chance for revenge...

Me talking to my daughter online yesterday: Hey, I know that Hogmanay is around New Years, but is there another holiday coming up soon? Robbie Burns night or something.

My 12 year old daughter who lives in Scotland: No, I don’t think so.

Thread today: It’s Robbie Burns Night!

As for Haggis, I’ve had it a few times when I went over to Scotland. It’s fine, but I think the inherent problem with it is that I just don’t really like lamb as a meat.
If it was pork based (which is essentially what White Pudding and Black Pudding are) it would be the best*.


* = I do love White Pudding. I’ve even had some of the veggie and vegan versions of it, and they can be nice too. A bit dry and mostly herbs and spices but still good.

Depends what kind you get, large animals I believe have very pungent and unpleasant tasting livers, but chicken liver just tastes... mostly like dark chicken meat honestly? Lamb liver is similar but honestly I think I like chiken better now.

Apparently they even do vegan black pud now, which I thought was a near impossible barrier for animal-free food.

Black beans with added vitamins and minerals instead of blood, with vegetable fat and oats.

Default keyboard on both Apple and Android does that thing where if you type a word that has an emoji associated with it it offers it up as the next suggestion and it's overtaken caps lock as favourite idiot button on the keyboard.

If you're not in Scotland and want decent haggis you have to either order it online or go to one of the posher supermarkets - I think the M&S in Newcastle did it. I'm sure it's easy enough to find in London too being a ridiculous metropolis. You're probably poo poo out of luck if you live in some rural place on the south coast. I imagine most decent butchers will be able to do you one if you go ask in advance even in England, it's not like they have any other use for the bits that get shoved into them.

A few years ago on Burns night I was visting mates in Cardiff; they'd picked up some acid while I stuck to the more traditional fare of whiskey. Turns out the tabs were way stronger then they expected, to the point that one of them got stuck in a mental loop continuously saying the same things and occasionally flailing around, so the general vibe was fairly grim.

On the upside, we had some microwaved veggie haggis which was pretty tasty, and everyone had recovered by the morning.

Annoyingly, my hotmail email accounts do that (on a Windows pc). If I am replying to an email sent to those accounts and want to itemize items as (a) (b) etc, I have to type ( a) or (a ) else if I type (a) it does a silly face with a hat on and ( b) or (b ) because if I type (b) it does a foaming tankard of beer. I have tried a zillion ways to change it and wasted many hours on google over the years trying to turn it off, but no joy. I just have to put those extra spaces in.
