This is a traditional dish that relies on a plant that didn't make its way to this part of the world until the 1870s

Sheldrak's pet theory is Morphic Resonance. Companies have trouble synthesizing crystals - due to morphic resonance?

Francis Adams' "The Australians" (1893) is a telling example of this, Adams was a vehement socialist who railed against imperialists & British atrocities. His work directly posited the Australian identity in this vein. The Bulletin in the 1890s did too. https://t.co/SbkuufWA2L

When I first read this post, I didn't think more about it.

But then I saw, even on German X, hardcore leftists using dog (Hund) as an insult.

An underrated (and funny) observation..

"For the twenty years preceding our first jubilee, Australian literature had received decided encouragement on all sides to go ahead and be Australian. It was supposed that you could improvise yourself Australian and a man of letters by simply following your native genius... Nature had not been good enough to hurry up and fashion a race pervaded with the spirit of the soil, the Australianity of this literature, which largely dealt with and was mainly addressed to mythical individuals called Bill and Jim, was painted on, not too laboriously, from the outside... [Australian literature] had been entirely 'corralled' by the Bulletin, a paper grown old and hide-bound in its convention of aggressive irreverence, and jealously maintaining its monopoly by the artful diffusion of a prejudice against [Sydney University] as a home of pedantry and formalism, and a refuge for causes that were never worth even losing." — The University and Australian Literature: A Centennary Retrospect (1902) Christopher Brennan 🇦🇺

What did the Greeks mean by this?

One of the weirdest inversions of the 21st century is that organisations "try to appeal to the youth" by presenting themselves as unserious and childish rather than creating a serious, prestigious image that the youth can hope to attain if they join.

Are these right wingers in the room with us right now?

[RacePope🇺🇸🐘🌎🔱🚓 @RacePopeIII]

Most Right Wingers would rather read Evola over Lenin and that’s why they can tell you all about the Kali Yuga and magical nonsense but not how a party should be structured or a movement organized and then we all wonder why nothing gets done.

Crazy to think that the Balkans is stereotyped as being xenophobic when the Turks used to be so excepting of others that they literally built Greco-Roman statues everywhere

"Israel and Australia are like sisters in Asia. We are in Asia without the characteristics of Asians. We don't have yellow skin and slanty eyes. Australia and Israel are not — we are basically the White race." — Naftali Tamir, Israeli Ambassador to Australia 🇮🇱 2006
