Quorn has an awful habit of going from edible to dried out husk wall filler if cooked milliseconds too long.

Interesting to see the excuses being lined up in Hartlepool, where an impending labour thumping is being presented in very passive terms with no direct criticism at all of the leader or strategy or presentation or (lack of) policies etc. I don't recall the Guardian giving labour this much slack for bad results 2015-2019 . quote:a narrow 3,595-vote majority quote:A generational shift in political allegiances Tortuous wording to avoiding blaming LOTO for bad decisions: quote:morale among some full-time activists has been subdued in part because many are being let go by the party after polling day.... Also just grimly hilarious to see the kind of centrist twat who spent 5 years rubbishing Labour from the inside complaining about a lack of trust quote:[Labour candidate Paul Williams] told the Guardian last month that its challenge was to convince people to trust Labour

I'm genuinely a bit down about Hartlepool, because the current incarnation of lab and its melty supporters in the press will learn absolutely nothing from this defeat. Even if Starmer is put out to pasture (which I doubt), the next leader is going to be chosen by the same ghouls and made from the same mould. The takes that we're going to be subjected to over the next weeks are going to be abysmal.

I'm honestly looking forwards to all of the: "Why losing Hartlepool is good for Starmer, actually" articles that are going to be churned out in the next couple of weeks.

It's been twelve years since Pasokification started, and the Labour Party under Jeremy Corbyn was one of the small handful of parties that reacted to that generational shift in allegiances...by trying to shift its allegiances. Now that wing is out of power, the faction in control wants to react to that generational shift in alleguance by doing nothing. Oh hey, look, it's Pasokification, coming right back to gently caress you up, whodathunk.

"The project manager shows up, dismisses the brickie and day labourer, and sets about showing them both how a brick wall should be built, with comedic effect" does sum up a lot of the Starmer era party. e: lmao just noticed that he's using sharp sand instead of builder's sand to make the mortar for that wall, no wonder it's gone to poo poo. Sharp sand is for your base. That almost feels like a deliberate joke if it weren't known hack Blower. Guavanaut fucked around with this message at 09:44 on May 5, 2021 |

Im pretty sure theres no reason to not just write sand there unless they were making that point.

Even the remnants of Corbynism are a bigger obstacle to the Tories than Starmer's efforts, yet Starmer persists in ignoring all advice from the left. AGC.

Had my jab letter come through the post this morning. For an appointment later today. They're lucky I don't have anything else going on (ever). My youngest brother got his letter as well but he's got 10 days notice. Given he's 8 years younger Wales must be rattling through its lists of the fit and healthy. Twin brother won't know if anything came in his post until he gets home from work at which point the appointment will have been and gone.

I'm being sent to the place where they've been dishing out the Pfizer (it's where my sick uncle and the local nurses went). Feels a bit like getting asked for id, why yes I do look young enough to be worried about the AZ side effects thank you.

So the idea is you can just treat it like the meat in your meal and it'll be inoffensive and absorb whatever sauce or spice flavours you're using. I guess all the much better meat replacements that the increased awareness and popularity of meat-free diets in the last decade or two have brought (and also the mycoprotein patent lapsing) have made it look pretty crummy by comparison today though. Fun fact; Quorn wasn't even vegetarian when it first came out (and of course a lot of it still isn't even vegan).

Add beef stock and it's super low fat mince as a direct meat replacement.

Was full vegetarian during the BSE 'crisis' and quite like Quorn sausages, but then i also like the old fashioned TVP mince.  Back to omnivorous eating these days though if that vat grown meat ever becomes a reliable/safe/cheap (probably not in my lifetime) thing i would give it a go. Got my second AZ shot this morning, then bought Space Engineers on Steam to celebrate...... really hoping that Bill Gates can help me out with building tips when the 5G kicks in.
