It's finally my favourite season of the year (for Chinese store knock-offs). Get your loved one some premium Coralle Klaare, Uomo, or Glavin Kelvin holiday underpants for the occasion.
Marry Christmas, everyone!

Don't know about Americans, but lots of my Jewish European friends have definitely radicalised a lot after the Oct 7th attacks in Israel.
These days, they pretty much post daily conspiracy nonsense that is usually pretty boring. This one was hilarious.

I've seen a lot of reports recently (in Israeli social media) on the stress and trauma of Israeli soldiers fighting in Gaza, and it is - to an outsider - such a jarring thing to read.
Being a soldier is not a natural profession & trauma is of course something that happens. But the focus is so odd.

Decided to bring back the moustache after over a decade's absence. Overnight, I look both 100% more Middle Eastern and 120% more Spanish.

I might go against the grain on this site a bit by saying that immigration is absolutely a salient issue in a country like the UK and that having a more stringent immigration scheme seems to be genuinely popular. But emulating the way in which the right speaks about the issue is a losing play.

Could someone who speaks Chinese please tell me what these "spicy strips" are? This is one of the weirdest flavours I can't quite place.

My neighbour has an adorable one year old. But while he is an adorable little baby, he looks almost exactly like Hasbulla.
How do I tactfully give the parents this information?

I got this Chinese chilli oil sauce, and I couldn't be happier. It is the one with actual meat in the sauce, and it is mind-blowingly good. Apparently, it is illegal in the U.S. but not in the EU (because Freedom).
Here, I am offending both the Chinese and Italians by having it on Gnocchi.

Living for decades in Europe, I can count on one hand the number of times I have seen people with mobility scooters (all very elderly). Why is it that in American films and documentaries, these things seem to be everywhere? Is there an insurance reason?

I found out there is a place relatively close to me with Nasi Lemak, and I can't think of anything else.
How do I go ahead with my planned dinner knowing that Nasi Lemak is this close?

My kid got some old Tintin comics from our elderly neighbours and has been devouring them since. But, I had kind of forgotten some parts of the comic after a few decades of not reading it...

People wonder why the Dutch are so stingy when splitting bills, yet forget they stole 20% of their country from Poseidon himself.

I still can't believe he's dead. I thought again about how his art ended with him and genuinely felt as sad as when I heard he passed. I wonder if he knew how many lives he touched doing what he did.

Nothing to do specifically with U.S. politics, but I was reminded of this amazing photo from the Trump campaign. It is imprinted on my mind like a 90's Punk album cover.

I was suddenly really missing the flavour of Gorby's Pierogies (a Swedish brand of pierogies named after - you guessed it - Gorbachev). So, we made this monster size homemade one, and it tastes pretty much exactly like a Gorby's, but homemade (and thus more delicious).
