You may have talked about it at publication, but just in case you didn’t may I recommend Babel* by R. F. Kuang to the thread? In 1836 a Chinese scamp is told he’s a language wizard It is very good, very sharp and well worth your time. If you want a bibliography you’ll need the Waterstones exclusive edition, or a friendly goon willing to type it up for you (hi!). *Its full title is Babel: Or the Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Oxford Translators' Revolution, so you know it’s going to be good.

I admit I have never been a particular fan of putting chocolate on things because the chocolate is usually awful. But weird import German chocolate perhaps may be good?

Banana is foul, artificial banana is fouler, and the cheap poo poo chocolate they put on foam bananas may be worse. But don't let that put you off.

I'm kinda spoiled that I live not far from an actual chocolatier so I usually get some bits from there if I want anything more than a dairy milk. They do chocolate covered marshmallows onna stick which are basically going to kill me one day.

Failed Imagineer posted:I think OP is right that the lowest tier LIDL stuff is kinda shitey. The rest is usually decent I use the Lidl Plus app when I shop and they give you also sorts of random coupons and electronic scratch cards with all sorts of random free stuff. (A free useuable netting for holding fruit. Your choice of a free box of Jaffa Cakes or Oreos. A free pastry. Etc...) I got a free 100 gram bar of the Lidl chocolate. And it was really nice. A solid treat to have on your lunch break. Worth selling your personal data by downloading an app for. Also when it comes to Lidl and chocolate the Lidl brand Nutella tastes the same as the branded stuff but at a quarter the price.

It's really more a KC digging inexorably into the point of what specific words he used mean, and what precisely his beliefs are. e.g. He asserts that Black History month is designed to keep black people in their place and is racist. KC asks who he think it's designed by (Fox can't answer this), and why would those people want to keep black people in their place. I just like seeing him squirm.

The Lidl Finn Carre chocolate is bad, worse even than chocolate from America. Maybe their fancy 90% cocoa solids stuff is good, I don't eat that.

Yeah, people like that are always going to go to pieces when they can't do their usual thing of making vague but outrageous statements, then moving straight on. He can't edit it down to a short clip where he 'wins' that can be posted on TikTok, either.

If it weren't Fox I'd feel a little sorry for him as having your internet posts from a few years ago dissected in court with hundreds of thousands of pounds of costs and damages on the line looks like a nightmare. That said, it is Fox, so gently caress him.

Because Lidl is known by some gourmands specifically for their chocolate selection. Take a pack of the assorted J. D. Gross, shugfle them with a £20 box from the hippest place in town, and see how certain you are which is which. Certainly not 100%.

So the Greek side was like 'The Prime Minister of Greece is an important person held in esteem the world over. Greece is an ancient country, with a population of 11 million, and is the cradle of Western Civilization. You cannot completely snub the Prime Minister of Greece in such an arrogant, utterly bullying way.' Maybe this was a mistranslation. Maybe they meant 'You shouldn't treat the Greek head of government this way'. Because as for cannot? Sunak definitely just did.

Does anyone know if the £250 max per flat you can be charged for works to communal parts of a block before the landlord has to serve a S20 notice includes VAT or not? Asked our lawyer and she wasn't sure! Makes a difference if job price has to be capped at £3800 + VAT or £4750+VAT! (We are our own landlords but still have to serve S20 if works exceed the legal amount, we just aren't sure what the legal amount is! Everything I've found just says £250 & doesn't mention VAT either inclusive or exclusive)

Its very funny to learn just how badly he hosed his career up tho, like maybe it was you going nuts about black history month being reverse racist that got you dropped by your agent not the people on twitter who pointed out you were being a racist prick.

If you think you're being oppressed by minorities, especially very small ones with little power, maybe you don't have the critical thinking skills or honest approach to the matter you need to determine what role you played in your own downfall.
