  • Well, it was supposed to be mainly a hazelnut cream with some sugar, cocoa and maybe a few other minor ingredients. And in fact, when it was new and conquering markets, that was what it was.

    I think the decades starting with the early 1990s had desensitized a lot of us to enormous amounts of sugar, and in the end we didn’t even consciously notice anymore how sweet that stuff had gotten.

    And what the goddamn hell is “true wood” supposed to distinguish?

    I suppose if it contains lignin, it’s really wood, otherwise it just kinda looks like wood at best. If it’s real wood, most animals, with a few exceptions here and there, cannot directly digest it.





  • Eh, knowing Trump, the reward may stay a pipe dream. He’s like the least loyal tyrant ever, it’s baffling how anybody works for him expecting not to be eventually backstabbed or thrown under the bus.

    More over, whoever follows her will undoubtedly be worse. Supposedly Bondi was fired over her handling of the Epstein files, which probably means she was supposed to just break all the laws surrounding evidence and just destroy as much of the stuff as possible.




  • I used to say, if you are not a “computer person” at all, just pick Ubuntu. If you are a bit more demanding and don’t mentally freeze up in front of computers, yet still want a fairly normal and hassle-free experience, choose Fedora.

    These days, I’m not so sure about Ubuntu anymore. They have been disappointing in the recent past.

    Maybe I should give Linux Mint a try one of these days.

    There are bio-accumulative toxins that really do get stuck in your body. Lead is a good example. Not that the supposed cures being peddled by these people can actually do anything about those.

    Also, for the normal kind of toxin, the biggest factor keeping the levels in your body high is continued intake. Reducing that totally makes sense. However, you need to first have a real, based on science, understanding of what those toxins are in the first place and not just randomly blame junk food or 5G radiation, and it needs to be a permanent life style change. A two week “cleanse” does nothing. A juice will not detoxify you. (Depending on the juice, especially how filtered and how sugary it is, it may be healthy for other reasons. Standard orange juice is not, it’s way too sugary.)
