"Cannibalism was practised by some communities in the past in specific contexts, said Kabuni, such as eating a deceased relative out of respect, to prevent their body from decomposing. “There was context. They wouldn’t just eat any white men that fell from the sky,” said Kabuni."
@MadeyeTheCarnaptious It's my excuse for buying another ton of shrubs and bedding plants - nothing like a few hours getting your hands dirty to restore a bit of mental equilibrium.
@MadeyeTheCarnaptious I'd be lost without my garden (and my library, obvs).
Due to a couple of fails on the planter front last year, I spent at least an hour fishing out drowned plants and slopping 20ltrs of wet compost into a bucket.
Glad there were no amateur photographers nearby - I did look like I'd used it as a face mask at one point 🤣
@Lassielmr@MadeyeTheCarnaptious I managed to get everything in the front garden finished yesterday - sowed some phlox, lettuce and radishes, but given last year's rather erratic efforts with forget me nots, they'll probably start flowering in the lawn 🤣
Unfortunately the back garden is about five times the size of the front, so I did spend about 20 minutes with my head in my hands, wondering where to start.
@Lassielmr True, but it really doesn't excuse such a spectacular failure of diplomacy. You'd think he was actively trying to sabotage his own reelection prospects.
@fkamiah17 if he loses in November, they will blame it on youth vote not coming out strong enough, when he continues to be an unacceptable candidate for the next generation.
@Gdac He won't lose, but I can see their much-vaunted landslide being dramatically lessened, both because of his failures of policy and the genocide.
I'm hoping for a hung parliament.
