I was hoping to start 2024 on a high by blasting some baked beans up my brand new sex arse but now the bloody Houthi's won't let me.

kecske posted:do we really import eggs and butter from across the planet We have (or did have in 2020) a trade deficit in butter. https://ahdb.org.uk/news/butter-self-sufficiency-in-the-uk Not entirely sure why butter from Ireland or Denmark has to come through the Suez canal though. Trade deficit in eggs: https://oec.world/en/profile/bilateral-product/eggs/reporter/gbr In October 2023, Eggs were exported mostly to Russia (£2.42M), Turkey (£1.87M), Netherlands (£1.13M), United States (£1.07M), and Ireland (£851k), and were imported mostly from Poland (£3.44M), Spain (£1.32M), Belgium (£1.31M), United States (£1.24M), and Ireland (£1.03M). (I thought we were supposed to be BDSing Russia?) Jaeluni Asjil fucked around with this message at 20:34 on Jan 13, 2024 |

KSA and Iran re-established connections last March and so their proxy war in Yemen has dried up. But there's always good job opportunities for hard working extremists in other proxy wars!

kecske posted:do we really import eggs and butter from across the planet Presumably not fresh whole eggs as they have limited shelf life and it's stupid, but egg powder or frozen egg yolks/whites for food industry maybe? Another thing is that if fodder and energy prices go up in general then it reflects in price of eggs.

A quick google suggests we are 86% self sufficient when it comes to eggs. The other 14% is imported from the EU. source

Dabir posted:Well... yeah. Of course it worked. The US worked with Israel to write a big manual decades ago about how it works and what you should do instead. I'd suggest you to go read it if you're interested, only I can't remember what it's called. They're just incapable of following it themselves, for a number of reasons, like the Israeli government being a bunch of genocidal fascists. So critical support for the Houthi then, glad we all agree now.

Ships supplying Israel are like the Jawa's sandcrawlers on their way to sell droids to Imperial troops in Mos Eisley. Houthis are Tusken raiders and if the odd Jawa dies it's worth it to stop the Empire getting its hands on a few more garbage droids. Luke Skywalker is Owen Jones and Ben Kenobi is Jeremy Corbyn. This is a perfect 100% accurate analogy of the situation and if you don't know where you stand on it then maybe your moral compass needs a midichlorian boost.

This escalation is just depressing, can’t even be arsed to argue whether people are right to compliment the Houthis or not. This year is gonna loving suck. Edit: did just see the remastered version of Stop Making Sense though. Strong recommend for 90 minutes of straight joy. Same year as the Reagan landslide, always something positive out there.
