Conan O’Brien on comics who just say “fuck Trump” all the time:
“You’re being co-opted because you’re so angry. You’ve been lulled. It’s like a siren leading you into the rocks. You’ve been lulled into just saying ‘F Trump. F Trump. F Trump. Screw this guy.’ And I think you’ve…

INTERVIEW: Student Ellie Ford on founding the University’s first cold water swimming group
| “Port Meadow is absolutely beautiful and a wonderful place to swim. We often swim in a different spot from other open water swimming groups in order to create a more relaxed environment – especially for our beginners. We do special beginners swims on Saturdays, to ease new members into the practise slowly and very carefully.
Safety is paramount, so I’ll walk them in to the water and they can immerse themselves as much as they want. We never allow anyone to jump or dive into cold water – the shock can cause a swimmer to gulp for air and subsequently ingest water; it’s always a gentle process.” — Ellie |

Porridge is a dish made by boiling grains, legumes, or starchy plants like oats, rice, cornmeal, or barley in water or milk until it reaches a soft, thick, and creamy consistency. It’s often eaten as a breakfast food and can be sweetened with sugar, honey, or fruit, or flavored with spices and other ingredients.
Common examples include oatmeal, rice porridge (like congee), and millet porridge. The specific ingredients and preparation vary widely across cultures and regions.
Not to be confused with grits; a specific type of porridge made from corn, with a distinct texture and cultural role, while porridge is a broader category encompassing many grains and preparations.

This British festive pastry has origins dating back to the 13th century when European Crusaders returned from the Middle East with recipes containing meats, fruits, and spices. These early pies, known as “mincemeat pies,” combined minced meat (usually mutton), suet, fruits, and spices such as cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg, symbolizing the gifts of the Magi. In the 16th century, the pies were rectangular, representing Jesus’ crib.
Over time, the meat content reduced, and by the Victorian era, the recipe had evolved to primarily include dried fruits, suet, and spices, aligning with the modern version of the mince pie. Traditionally enjoyed during the Christmas season, mince pies are now small, round pastries filled with a mixture called mincemeat, which typically contains no meat but a blend of dried fruits, sugar, spices, and sometimes brandy or other spirits.

…”The Society has ruled on the acceptable dimensions of the Yorkshire pudding and is now issuing the definitive recipe. The judgement followed an enquiry from an Englishman living in the Rockies in the USA who emailed the RSC seeking scientific advice on the chemistry of the dish following a string of [altitude related] kitchen flops….”
