European countries start national stockpiling of olive oil.

The average european already does that.

For how many years do you stockpile? I try to buy a yearly supply and often get overflow from one year to the next.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Not years but about 6 months worth. I'm very picky with my olive oil so if I find a good price in one of the brands I like best I'll buy some... bu I usually alredy have a ton at home lol. But I use it everyday, not only to cook and for salad but also in the bread or the popcorn. My favorite food is Olive Oil

I am interested in the rare slime. Where do I subscribe to rare slime facts?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 weeks ago

You can captivate a nation by giving them a rare slime

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 weeks ago

It's starting already...

Chapelle Roan gets shot on stage, the bullet bounces off her armor and hits Donald Trump. He dies but gets resuscitated.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 weeks ago

It misses but he pretends to die poorly, and stands backup proclaiming god sent him back. Whitehouse merch sales skyrocket.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

does getting your armor dented count as a wardrobe malfunction? this could be a two for one

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

That was the point of my joke. I mean, if after getting hit, the straps failed and the chestplate fell down, it would be a malfunction.

Mpox and Bird Flu go big and a giant sign appears in the sky, "The planet's anti parasite medications will continue until fever symptoms subside."

Bill Gates will work with FEMA to engineer a brain worm that is more effective than vaccines. There will be an “anti-worm” movement where soccer moms buy Russian vaccines on the dark web with dogecoin.

The queerbaiting one is already a half point and it's still not 2025 yet.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Yeah that is CRAZYYY

Had the same reaction, but I quickly realised I'm happy about my ignorance here. My gut reaction is that it's extremely US-centric and stuff you'd need to be an always online, mainly MSM, kind of person. Nooooope, thank you.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

you're on lemmy.

that's not a diss. it's just that I'm the only person i know, who even knows lemmy exists. you kinda have to be online a lot to know about it lol

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

The rare slime thing already happened tho. It’s called “That one time I got reincarnated as a slime”

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

That was my first thought. My second was that somehow people became interested in the unique behavior of slime molds.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

He's not a bad slime you know

Trump dies but comes back to life

Technically this could happen if he's put on cardiac bypass for heart surgery.

What's wrong with snapbacks?

[–] [email protected] 17 points 2 weeks ago

What is a queerbaiting arc?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Queerbaiting: Pretending or hinting that you may be LGBT+, in order to trick people into liking you more, or to pay more attention to you or your work. Sometimes this is a way to try to get LGBT+ fans, sometimes it's trying to get straight people who think LGBT+ people/acts are sexy.

Arc, as in story arc of a tv show or book series: So, it's for a set period of time, and then they move on, not really acknowledging again.

Pop acts have done this a lot.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Isn't that just marketing?

People generally look down on pretending to be a minority for financial gain.

Well Billie Eilish and Chapell Roan have been releasing songs about cunnilingus and heavy petting lately that have been ok in specific circles which keeps them employed so in order to get in on that and also hopefully capture so more name recognition Arianna Grande will put in a show of being queer and then act upset about backlash but then rise above it to state that it doesn't matter making a big song about their bold new life choice, and then drop it after snapbacks come back without really ever talking about it ever again.

No, no, it's queerbating. She's obviously going to open up to hawk girl on the view about what she flicks the bean towards, and then market the 'slime' to all the insane people...

and the video promoting it prominently displays her wrists with snapbacks on them.

I think I hate myself for this mental image.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Ohh, here I was thinking that was a typo. Thank you for clarifying

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

One of the first times I remember feeling old was when I heard people saying snapback instead of (baseball) cap. Things just kept skibiding from there

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 weeks ago

Why do I feel like this will 100% be accurate

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Ofc the writers would make a hell of a twist for the 2024 season end, and then phone it in for season 2025. SMDH

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago

Interesting. What planet is this about?
