all that “pink slime” shit, people icking at recovering marginal meat/tendon/protein matter off the bones for human consumption (as if it’s a novel trespass of modernity)
oh, like it’s okay if the end-user has to do it with their fucking teeth?
next time somebody makes a snide comment about you being a socialist with a laptop, you should point out that actual marxist guerillas in the jungles of colombia carry them
listen the minute u think “hes different!!” abt a man he’s already scammed u
okay I admit I just wanted to attach a picture of Mr Rogers because I found the idea of him as a player intrinsically amusing, but the caption doesn’t hurt either.
I’d heard of it certainly, but this is the first time I’ve actually had a picky eater as a cat. Only wet food he’ll reliably eat is Friskies’ Beef Bits in Gravy, and I guess that works so I’ve got a big supply of it on hand, but I’m still trying to test out other kinds for variety.
Out of I guess the same vanity that leads people to feed their cat Fancy Feast or vegan grains, a notion of their gustatory satisfaction as an extension of mine.
Anyway so as this goes on I’ve been sampling the varieties, obviously, and they do taste like they’re labelled - the flavor profiles aren’t in perfect balance, but all the right notes are there. They taste like that for maybe 1.2 seconds, and then they all go to this weird metallic aftertaste, the only thing I’ve ever tasted like it is “foxy”, the flavor note of wine made from American labrusca grapes (like a particularly savory rock).
I’m guessing maybe it’s a particulary evaporative, quick-dissipating flavoring ‘cause the main point is to communicate the flavor to the pet owner’s nose while they’re serving it?
overhearing a few born-and-raised Portlanders talk about the old days going to Lincoln High when no one would actually go to class, just hang out and smoke weed on the Portland State campus and shoot hoops with Damon Stoudamire and everyone got a diploma anyway
You know in all the hooha about military drones I’m surprised no one’s tried replacing mortars with off-the-shelf quadcopters that just drop the shells where they’re supposed to go.
We should name the first class of… well, either space warships or interstellar transports, whichever we build first, we should name them after afterlife realms – Heaven, Valhalla, Duat, Hades, etc.
