Some, like the ivy aphid are already in North America, but I’m not sure how much of a dent it actually makes. There’s great precedent for successful introduction of biocontrol agents for other invasive species. There’s also great precedent for catastrophic failures(especially in instances where there’s a native close relative of a target species), so it’s definitely something that needs to be very carefully explored and not to be done haphazardly.

It doesn’t have the same pests and diseases as in Europe to keep it in check.

Apparently PepsiCo just sells unseasoned tortilla chips under the Doritos brand in the UK.

that’s a little over 70 new margaritavilles

sometimes it works

we can get those numbers up

lame. create a legal path to execute the tobacco company execs instead.

someone around me flies this

wait until they see that one flag that looks like some kind of amalgam of both flags.

got it, parliament isn’t political

The most bizarre thing about that exchange is that they immediately went into talking about addiction when the entire point of the article was that you don’t have to be an addict or heavy drinker to harm yourself with alcohol.

I honestly didn’t take the yuppies comment very seriously at first, but the statistics on alcohol consumption by income/education reinforce it so hard.

I have more than one relative that have “treated” suspected heart attacks with alcohol. While their reasoning isn’t the worst since it interferes with clotting, I’d have a heart attack myself if I tried to convince them that alcohol isn’t good for your heart.

I kinda don’t see the point of peeling that kind of potato. I get them entirely because of the thin skin and would just the bigger thicker skinned ones if I minded the skin.

I’ve sometimes just scrubbed off the skin with some steel wool like stuff though.

Anhueser-Busch backs a successful coup to end the war in a bid to protect its breweries. Drinking age is reduced in an effort to firmly secure its future market share, and an Anhueser-Busch beer monopoly is established via government contract on newly nationalized college campuses.

yeah, it’s a complicated issue when you’re implementing mandatory penis inspections. very simple non-issue if you don’t do mandatory penis inspections. even more of a non-issue if sports scholarships were completely unnecessary for obtaining an affordable education

I wouldn’t take that as representative of the site as a whole. My guess is that they were just ironically “misbehaving” since the person they were replying to said they haven’t seen a Hexbear user misbehaving, but I could be wrong since we’re not a monolith in our thought processes or posting habits.

I’ll have to ask the council of indoor cats.

So sad that they removed that Moscow time clock from the front page. Was so easy to tell when the posting shifts started then.
