Katsuri Methi. An absolute essential for a decent curry. Also Hing aka Devil's Piss, if for no other reason than the name.

I cleaned the filter in the washing machine last weekend in c/dull_mens_club@lemmy.world

It's a small thing, but it avoids unnecessary repair bills. It felt good too!

Thanks to the backward First-Past-The-Post voting system, Nigel Farage could obtain an absolute majority in Westminster with only a minority of British votes. in c/unitedkingdom@feddit.uk

When was the last time you went clubbing? in c/ask@lemm.ee

[–] intelisense@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

A couple of years ago, unless you include post-band night as a club. In that case, it would be a few months ago. I'm GenX, and clubbing was pretty big for us.

No, existing laws are still in place. It does mean that techbros will be able to steal your art, though as she was fired for not rubber stamping that.

After-work drinks in decline outside London, peers told in c/uk_politics@feddit.uk

I'm a bit surprised this is news - our work dos were always on Thursday. Better to be hung over on company time.

That's true, but this report specifically excludes London.

The right have devised and extremely effective strategy: spam the Internet with an absurd amount of hit pieces against the left (and liberal!) politicians. They monitor the reaction, and as soon as one takes hold, they push it - hard.

The left have a special talent for not showing up or wasting their vote on a no hope candidate. This strategy plays straight into that weakness.

Some examples: incubators for babies during the Brexit vote, being pro-Palestine during the 2019 UK election. Being anti-Palestine during the US election. Any reason to sit it out... and let facists win.

We need to wake up and realise that sitting it out is exactly what the nazis want. They don't expect you to vote for them. Just sitting it out is enough.

Yes, better left-wing candidates would be great - but that's on us. Getting rid of FPTP in the UK might help. Either way, we need to wake up to this strategy and start being smarter. Grass root campaigns to get better candidates, sure, but for fucks sake, turn out and vote!

Why just musical artists? Paintings, books, whatever - so long as its on topic.

We The People Did Not Vote For This in c/Mirror@50501.chat

I hear what you are saying, but collectively, you literally voted for this. It fucking sucks that so many of your compatriots did that, but denying it is not the way forward.
