What's up with the quotes around "French" in Québec French?
Québec French, while different in some ways to the varieties of French found in Europe, is still very much French.
Never mind the fact that most Francophones currently live in African countries.
Steinem worked with the CIA to promote reactionary propaganda and helped direct the women’s liberation movement into a corporate-friendly, anti-socialist direction.

They didn't imply feminism is a CIA initiative, but the CIA definitely worked with her to influence the feminist movement.
For sure giving SCP vibes. I'm currently working on a play (loosely) based on SCP and I'm definitely sharing this with my collegues, thanks OP!
It's not a super elegant solution, but whenever I come across age-restricted videos ytdownloader.io has managed to download them.
Bold and Brash randomly being in the background really tickles me.
Very strong I-don't-have-any-actual-counter-arguments-so-I-resort-to-personal-insults energy. Well done.
Slight correction:
Food is the first of the five Principal Exceptions to Gamp’s Law of Elemental Transfigura[tion]... It’s impossible to make good food out of nothing! You can Summon it if you know where it is, you can transform it, you can increase the quantity if you’ve already got some..."
(Note, as a trans person I hate that I know this)
J.K. Rowling is such an arse that she willingly decided that food scarcity should still be a thing in her fictional magical universe.
If you're pirating you should really be using ad-blockers anyways.
I'm assuming as opposed to steamed milk. I'm curious what the "strawberry" part is referring to, personally.
As a barista, I have mad respect for anyone who puts in the effort to learn latte art at home. It took me 6 months of full-time café work to get consistent at latte art, I can't imagine I'd have the patience if I weren't getting paid and had to drink that many lattes!
I had to drive around 1500km this past weekend in a rented mini-van. I don't own a car, so that's probably more distance than I've covered in a motor vehicle in the past 5 years.
Today, back home and on my way to work, there was rather torrential rain, but I was still so thankful to be back on the bike.
(Happy National Acadian Day to all Acadians!)

Two cappuccinos I made one after the other in my café today. This couple came in and wanted large cappuccinos, so I made them in our 16oz cups. Not my cup of tea (nor coffee) but if I can make what you want, I will! Unfortunely, my muscle memory is attuned to steaming/pouring 8oz capps, and so the first one came out somewhat more phallic than I intended 😅
The only thing worse than a shitty pour is a shitty pour in the same order as a drink you nailed.
I'm just curious! I'd love to know what type of cafés anyone here is working at.
My current café is kinda old-school Italian style coffee-wise but much more laid back and add some hippy-granola vibes for good mesure. Our beans are roasted in-house, and pretty much all the food we sell is made in-house as well, down to the sauces, and anything we don't make ourselves is bought locally.
I've worked in two other cafés prior to this one. The first was a kinda upscale third-wave spot that mostly attracted yuppies, and the equipment far surpassed the training of any of the staff. We had pourovers on the menu and maybe 1 and a half employees actually knew how to brew with a V60.
The second was a hardline traditional Italian-style café, which, if you're familiar with the coffee culture in Canada (where I live) vs Italy, is a silly idea. A lot of people here only know Tim Horton's or Starbucks, especially in a mostly rural province like where I'm situated. You have to meet people where they're at; scoffing at people for wanting sweetener in their latte isn't likely to encourage them to jump into the coffee world in whichever way one deems proper. It'll only encourage them to stick to Timmies or Starbucks instead of checking out local cafés with actually good coffee.
(For some context, I live in Canada, beer labels are bilingually English & French here)

I find it hard to take these travels advisories seriously while the US is still in the green.
Like how is the US under a fascist government, with ICE having detained Canadian tourists, deemed "safer" than most European countries?
