Nigel Farage praised by Russian state media over Ukraine war comments
  • If you watch the linked video, it talks about Farage trying to ally himself with Powell and Powell rejecting his advances. So yes, you're correct. My point was the Tories had a vocal racist in their ranks, and they kicked him out. A racist that Farage idolises.

    The Tories are scumbags but at least they have (or had) a veneer of some kind of morals about them. Farage doesn't have that quality, so to say he's reminiscent of a 90s or 00s Tory is raising him above his station. Even if it's an incredibly low bar to begin with.

    He shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a position of power.

  • Sunderland Council to continue using chemical weedkiller
  • Just fucking let the weeds grow. They're there for a reason.

    reduced resident satisfaction about weeds clogging up paths

    Clogging up? Are some dandelions really stopping people from getting down a path? I don't think so. Plants don't tend to grow very well on trodden paths, any that do grow will be on the edges becoming just an aesthetics problem.

  • Mark as read on scroll not working.
  • It worked for me perfectly from release until a couple of days ago. Ads started appearing in the app around the same time it stopped working, so perhaps they're affecting how it works? I dunno.

    If I click the tick to denote a post is read, it'll disappear. And posts still dim during scroll as if the app knows they're read but just isn't hiding them anymore.

  • DIY Supermaterial Could Save You From Heatstroke: Salt based PCMs
  • I was engrossed and believed everything he said right up to where he said those little hand warmers are great. They're pish. They require boiling water before every use and don't last all that long. Unfortunately, that makes me dubious about the rest of his claims.

  • See the top 4 locations in England with the most snakes
  • Amazing, thanks!

    The interactive map is pretty cool. It's interesting that the further north you go, the more it just becomes adders.

    My only interaction with snakes in the wild was in the Cairngorms. Twice in the same day! Both were just sunbathing on the path, and both times I almost stood on them before I saw them at the last second. Terrifying stuff. I'm pretty sure they weren't adders though, although I'll admit I know next to nothing about snakes, so who knows.

  • I don't use crossbows in video games
  • The only game I recall playing where crossbows were a weapon class of their own, and not just another type of gun, is Witcher 3.

    I completed the game, and the two large DLCs, and the crossbows were completely pointless. Magic, swords, and even fists were used regularly, but the crossbows just gathered dust. I unlocked and levelled up pretty much everything in that game, and still, the crossbows were pointless.

  • Touching Grass: The Grassening
  • For real, though, you can almost cut out medication if you drink nettle tea. I only use antihistamines for convenience on days I don't have time or am not in the mood for tea. But usually 1 cup, sometimes 2 on breezy days, and it's fine.

  • Greek coastguard threw migrants overboard to their deaths, witnesses say
  • "That's something that happens. The migrants travelling the Aegean Sea, very often they abandon the children. They don't seem to have the same... affection we have for children."

    The blatant dehumanisation is sickening as well.

  • lighter rule
  • To be fair, bodybuilders do lift the lighter weights. Gotta get that high rep range for the pump.

    Powerlifters, strongmen, and Olympic lifters lift the heavy weights to get stronk.
