Makes sense I guess, a string of corruption allegations basically describes the Tories' entire approach to governance.

Yeah but the point is it's not posting about posters or forums drama, it's poo poo directed at a specific group combined with sustained harassment of a member of that group. I would gently suggest it's not very comradely to want the issue to go away because you find it annoying rather than wanting it to be resolved for the sake of solidarity; trans people don't get to just go "It's very dull" and ignore it (And the left has long held that it is not incumbent on a victim or victim group to take action like that) and it's a bit off to liken what's going on to an Internet Fight.

The problem with adding people to your ignore list is that despite the entire thread going on about ignoring bad posters and not engaging them and not feeding the troll, they still do and it makes the ignore list a waste of time.

besides, that kind of makes dealing with a lovely troll a personal responsibility of every other poster and not, like, the troll themselves or the mods, and that never works

and that's not even getting into all the differences in personal tolerances towards shittiness, different sets of boundaries, etc which makes the whole "just ignore them" thing a pointless endeavour.

quoting this post again because people still don’t quite get that this hasn’t been “ugh forum drama” this has been a targeted effort from several people to take someone’s voice away from them and that person deserves an apology now it’s been dragged into the open.

I don't think mass ignoring has ever really worked on any thread here, there's always a critical mass of people who are too easily baited.

Threadbanning is good though, for everyone involved. I don't think most lovely trolls are even getting that much enjoyment out of what they're doing, they just can't stop touching the hot stove

You can also substitute blood for egg structurally so I'm sure it works in cocktails too.

They make foaming agents for cocktails if you don't want to use egg white, it's just the isolated chemical and you can just stick a few drops in and it does the same thing. They also make egg white syrup if you don't mind the egg white but don't want to handle raw eggs.

belated cocktail chat, but Negronis are why I feel like death today:

one part gin,
one part vermouth rosso (red, semi-sweet),
and one part Campari,
shake with lots of ice,
garnish with orange peel if feeling sassy

10/10 would groni again

Aperol spritz is the best cocktail

2 parts prosecco
1 part aperol
Top up with club soda, served over ice with some orange slices.

Though I like to make it a bit more aperol heavy than this

Apperol Spritz is not the best cocktail by a longshot, but they are nice.

I've really gotten into cocktail making this lockdown, even going as far as buying weird liqueurs and spirits so I can make such oddities as Aviation and Death in the Afternoon, but I think maybe my favourite overall is the simple Daquari.

Been making a ton of Apple Martinis recently -
2 parts vanilla Vodka (50ml per drink standard)
1 part apple juice
Half the juice of a lime per drink (so a whole lime if you're shaking for 2)
2 tea spoons of sugar syrup per drink
Egg white
Shake well to froth up the egg properly, serve in a stemmed glass with a dusting of cinnamon.

Very tasty.

After being denied planning permission to convert it into 10 flats, and two days before English Heritage was due to recommend the pub be granted Grade-II listed status, the owners ordered its demolition.

Instead, after a dogged six-year campaign by locals, the Carlton Tavern will reopen next month – lockdown permitting – after the developers were ordered to rebuild the pub “brick by brick”, a ruling that pub campaigners say has set an extraordinary precedent.
