Five people here think Nazi business is fine. Yikes.

Wait. We’re unironically calling social media for women Giggle and then we’re surprised it might be sexist? April first was like a week ago…

Some caravanserai had libraries

I’m feeling a major drive to watch Avatar again.

I’m 54. When people ask my opinion of this war, I change the subject. I’m not proud of that, but I’ve seen this war more than once.

I have strong opinions about many things, but I’ve seen what this particular war does and I’ve learnt there’s no winning it. I donate to Gaza, but nothing I can say will change the horror the latest flare up of this war will bring. Im sorry.

Less than two steps between that and eugenics, and one step between eugenics and genocide. We’ve seen and documented that. It’s a logical but sociopathic mentality.

Conversely, when we realise that we’re stronger together and act empathetically as a society, every one of us and all of society benefits. When we care for the least of us, crime goes down and we find geniuses who improve life for us all, who would otherwise die in anonymous poverty.

Living like barbarous animals – not rising above the ‘brutality of nature’, as you said – helps sociopaths who take advantage of our better nature to enrich themselves. Indeed, if we structure our society around that, as we have done lately, our society will devolve around the lowest common denominator (people like Musk or Trump).

We can and must do better than that.

It doesn’t have to be in the name, just in the ingredients list. In this case it is, so it’s perfectly above-board for the US.

It seems not to be as well known as I thought, but most commercial honey sold in the US is not actually honey:

But the honey industry is hiding a secret. There’s a high chance that your store-bought honey is fake. While fake honey usually includes some amount of real honey, it is often mixed with other corn, rice, or sugar cane syrup to reduce its cost. These fillers are far cheaper than raw honey and are used to produce more honey, quicker. In fact, up to 76% of honey sold in the US is not really honey, at least not entirely.

There were a bunch of stories about this several years ago after a minor controversy, but it didn’t stay in the news long, so I guess it fell out of public consciousness.

If you want real honey, you’ll want to buy from small, local dealers.

It’s definitely black. It has a bit of sheen and looks dark blue in the photo because of that.

Thank you. I’m sorry for your loss, too.

It does not. It’s paper, with a bit of a sheen.

I think the suggestions it’s an inventory sticker that was accidentally included make the most sense.

I’m so sorry. That’s really hard. I hope you’re okay.

Thanks.

I didn’t work directly with the crematorium, so I’ll have to track them down, but thanks!

I was wondering if this was a known thing that I just wasn’t clued into, but apparently not.

I’ll probably do that, thanks!

You could be right. That would make sense.

Thank you!

Nope. Also I stuck it on paper and it came off cleanly. It seems to be a regular sticker.

It doesn’t.

It removes easy and resticks.. Seems like a regular sticker.

(Very sorry about the state of my nails. I’ve been sick.)

it doesn’t .
