I can imagine they had so much fun with this one
they did a chocolate lemon decades ago, but it was with dark chocolate, wasn't popular & got discontinued. I think they should try again but with white chocolate
Nausicaa is my favourite film :)! the soundtrack is so bizarre in the best way
(the last film I watched was Kiki's delivery service, also recommend that to everyone! it's a lot more relaxing and kid-friendly than Nausicaa though)
Whilst I do believe in deplatforming, I wouldn't call fediverse comment sections a platform.
Checking in on concerning individuals and helping them realise that they're being unkind, is an important but exhausting role in society - and it's good if mods aren't the only ones doing it!
Parts of the fediverse are small enough of a community that you can give a helping hand to these people and break them out of their reactionary/propaganda bubbles.
You're helping to keep the community kind - thank you for doing it
all you need to know is that dogs are fluffye! no need to look at the other comments :)!
When I saw Stonehenge as a kid, we just drove past it really slowly, with my dad saying "don't worry, everyone else wants to slow down to look too!"
Now I make that drive every few weeks 🫠
That one might have been a mistranslation, but you'd hope most sanrio fans would be cool about gender !
This article isn't perfectly scientifically accurate but it's better than most! For those interested, here's a better (detailed) explanation of the science:
Cloud seeding works best in supercooled liquid clouds, which start with barely any ice in. For ice to form in clouds, you need INP (ice nucleating particles), aerosols such as sea salt, or dust, for the ice to grow onto. INP can be pretty rare, depending on where you are in the world.
By adding silver iodide (an efficient INP) ice crystals can form. This means the cloud has both ice and liquid water in (a "mixed phase" cloud).
For multiple reasons, ice grows better and faster than liquid cloud droplets (the "Wegener Bergeron Findeisen effect" for one). Because there's only so much water in the cloud, these ice crystals then grow at the expense of water droplets in the air, allowing for big snowflakes to grow, but droplets evaporate.
This turns it from a cloud with many tiny droplets, into one with big heavy snowflakes, which fall out of the cloud. Before the snowflakes reach the ground, they melt, turning into rain.
TLDR; cloud seeding takes the water already in the cloud, and makes it precipitate slightly more efficiently, but only if you improve the balance of aerosols in the air just right
So much beautiful snow photography (stock footage etc) comes from Wisconsin. It's well known for snow and snow research. Sad to see the landscape changing over there
It's frowned upon because the "solutions" to overpopulation are immoral. Over population causing climate change is an idea funded and perpetuated by large companies who do not want to take blame.
If the UK stopped producing carbon emissions tomorrow, I promise it would make an enormous difference: we're the 17th largest CO2 emitter despite having a relatively small population.
This is because: 1) average CO2 consumption of a person varies a lot by lifestyle: living more sustainably does matter, and, 2) the largest contributors to climate change are fuel companies, not individual people: many countries have much smaller carbon footprints (both total and per capita) because of their political choices. The best solution to climate change is political change and climate accountability, especially on the global scale.

As long as they're not inside my house, (and if they were, I would take them outside) I'd say it's fine. They deserve somewhere nice to live (as long as it isn't. inside my house)
