I once asked a restaurant manager how exactly their flame-grilling conveyor belt worked (e.g., did they add any metal trays or similar in which the patties are then grilled), and he replied to me that it’s just a stainless steel conveyor on which all the patties are placed, but that he was...

Read about the new show “Tracker” which is supposedly a smash hit and the most popular series in the US in 2023 and 2024, but found the first episodes rather pedestrian… very simple stories, acting IMO average, nothing special. Also started “Shameless”, still on the pilot episode, don’t know...

I bought a number of things recently. A gas barbecue station, which is quite nice, and had us eating barbecue a lot recently. My favourites so far are Beyond burgers - even better fresh from the barbecue than of my old contact grill (which already was not bad), self-made buffalo chicken pieces...

Reading “Eternal Frontier” some more James H. Schmitz science fiction short stories. Pretty awesome, considering they were written some 7 decades ago, but still make for great reading. As a contrast, I also read “Triplanetary”, the first book in the supposedly famous “Lensman” series, and it...

I really liked the episodes featuring Elsbeth Tascioni on “Good Wife” and “Good Fight” … Pity I don’t have access to the new series.

Done, was very quick. Welcome to the forum! Hope you find more topics here that interest you!

THIS!!!!! I hate Debbie Wassermann Schultz and Donna Brazile with a vengeance… Or does this make me a “Toxic Bernie Bro”?

What an uninformed person. Makes me shudder.

Surprised to see this here, because by my experience, most vegans I know seldom have constipation issues… (one of our vegan superpowers)

Yeah, I had re-visited this thread when the “Empathy” thread was posted and found the last post too funny not to remark upon…

Having watched the series to the end, I have to say that Daenerys (INFP) did not turn out to be a very diplomatic "mediator" ...

I feel (well, I also think it) that this will be the case for a very large percentage of people following a vegan (or at least vegetarian) lifestyle. I posted a somehow similar question a time ago...

It’s an opinion piece. To be fair, I am at a loss of words at the mental gymnastics that makes the author claim that being unhappy about the IDF killing 35,000 people (70% of them women and minors) in a “defensive war” is a direct outcome of believing in the “blood libel”.

It was always clear that they are sociopaths, the “dog-hating” part is what’s new…

Am now re-watching “Dexter” on Netflix. I loved that series so much when it came out originally and was shown on German TV, but could not follow all of it (although I would program my DVR (harddisk-enabled DVD player at the time) to record all episodes for me. Now I finally have access to all...

The toaster mystery …

I just watched “The Outfit” on Amazon Prime. Very good movie (more a play than a typical movie, the whole story takes place over a few hours inside a tailor shop) with Mark Rylance, whom I like a lot as actor.

Happy Week-End!!!!

As others have said, I also went vegan mainly because of books I had read. I personally have no need to watch “Earthlings”, and do not want to. I also hesitate to suggest non-vegans to watch it, as I am afraid it might be too graphic. I love “The Peacable Kingdom” as it sends a very strong...

I really liked Dilbert before Scott Adams went full super MAGA around 2016... :(
