Fabulous figs, frightening foie gras, flattering liars! An ancient food thread that has it all; (If you're sensitive to animal cruelty, then be forewarned!)
In the name of Hades, what do you mean Thomas? What connects these seemingly very different things -namely figs and liver- together?

We encountered people in Sikkim with yak’s cheese strung on a thread and worn around the neck. I tried some, but it was more akin to chewing gum than (familiar to me) cheese.

Having experienced Tibetan yak cheese, I can say that the idea of such a necklace seems perfectly reasonable.

It is wondrous to note how, in images like the below, Goodwin appears increasingly to be haunted by the ghost of Jordan P, pressing forward out of his skull...
'In a February 2025 clip, Peterson said there were three predictors of “politically correct authoritarianism”, of which the first was “being female”, at which point Goodwin interjected and added: “I was going to say that.”'

Final bit of bovine war history for you today:
The last known casualty of the WW1 Battle of Messines happened on 17th June 1955.
On that day, one of the two 'lost' 600 tonne mines beneath the battlefield exploded, taking with it about 250ft of hill top and one very surprised cow.

Bovril had long marketed itself as the drink that kept the British Army marching.
This advert, from the Boer War, claimed that General Roberts' march to Kimberley and Bloemfontein spelt out the word "Bovril" on the map.

Completely aligned with the Kremlin's talking points, as he was back in 2014 when he was airing it to the EU Parl and when appearing on RT.
Wrong on so many levels: factually about 2014 and morally by siding with an authoritarian who ignored a democratic mandate and killed his own people.

Yanukovych fled Ukraine after agreeing a consensus deal and absented the presidency *himself*, after spending three months massacring street protesters and imprisoning the runner up in his election on trumped up charges. He was destroying democracy himself!

This is a patently malicious grift, another home office special fleece, and goes on my ever-growing list of reasons NOT to become a dual citizen of this country.
Dual nationals to be denied entry to UK from 25 February unless they have British passport
Dual nationals to be denied entry to UK from 25 February unless they have British passport
New border controls require ‘certificate of entitlement’ to attach to second nationality passport that costs £589
Dual British nationals have been warned they may be denied boarding a flight, ferry or train to the UK after 25 February unless they carry a valid British passport.
The warning by the Home Office comes amid scores of complaints from British people living or travelling abroad who have suddenly found themselves at risk of not being allowed into the country.
