I really don’t like Cottage pie/Shepherd’s pie despite being British (yes I know) but honestly from what you’re describing, I would totally eat this. Looks so delicious and fancy if I say so myself ^•

If someone would have told me this like a couple of years back, back when most people (besides the foss community) didn’t know about it, I deffo wouldn’t have believed you lol.

It’s nice to see some alternatives getting promoted though.

Tbf, people should have moved on from Instagram/Facebook from years ago tbh, esp as there are decent, ethical alternatives out there but as usual, people don’t really care unless it affects them personally or their social rep.

The fact that people are flocking over to RedNote, Lemon8, Tumblr, Bluesky and other platforms, despite them being problematic either due to privacy issues/ceos stances on political issues like trans rights etc or the techbros involve want to destroy the environment, proves the point itself.

The people that are moving out of TikTok etc are literally making no difference to stopping the rise of fascism, besides making themselves feel better about themselves about the whole thing.

Honestlyyyyy and yet when I speak about actually ethical alternatives, ppl then be like nah cba, too difficult, too much effort or too complicated when it only takes five mins or less to make an account and yet these same god damn ppl expect you to always listen to them.

We honestly truly live in a society.

People only want to make a difference if it only gives them good social points, not actual change or things that enable for them to actually think critically and change their viewpoints.

Feels pretty hopeless tbh esp as this is only the beginning of 2025 as well but hey at least there’s some logical people on here (though you do get the occasional dumbass on lemmy/mbin)

Well this gives me a good excuse to never go to Starbucks ever again (even though people shouldn’t be going to Starbucks anyway)

Happy belated meowthday!

Based Norwegians

I’ve worked as a bar staff member/bartender so kinda similar role and I always found it super respectful, considerate and convenient when people tidied themselves up esp as our job is constantly on the go and so often, esp in busy hours, it’s practical impossible to be fully tidy in those hours and so it really does make our job so much easier when customers do that esp as in my job, I often have to deal with seriously difficult customers and stuff, which can make things super time consuming and straight up annoying esp as other customers are waiting as well to be served.

OwOOwOOwOOwO

That’s how we know we gay and do crim :3

The fact these losers (misogynists) don’t even have shame in what they’re saying and are not afraid of the repercussions, this could have on their personal/work lives, by saying all this fucked up shit, just makes it even awful tbh. There is really no justice.

Yayyyy…… can’t wait for even more rights to be dismantled…… (not)

Ripppppp :(

Thank you for providing us with so many memories esp in the 90s/early 2000s!

That’s actually me with Camembert actually, not so much with Blue Cheese though, love blue cheese esp French blue cheese. So yum.

Key trick to eating natto is adding a dash of soy sauce in it, makes the dish so much tastier and honestly it’s pretty yum, if you don’t eat natto alone and add other seasonings etc.

I’m surprised they told you that tbh, Papaya Salad aka Somtam or (what northern Thai folks call) papaya bok bok, is prob one of the most popular orders esp for tourists that come to Thailand, though icl the papaya salad in Laos, is better imo (so much spicier and flavourful, and less sweet)
