WW2 rationing really messed up their culinary scene
What? That doesn’t make sense. Even if it was a decade of rationing, that wouldn’t completely wipe out and replace a culture’s cuisine. Just look at all the other countries that had rationing during ww2 and other wars, and their food is still flavorful.
Also this isn’t ancient history stuff, if what you said was true then we’d see that British cuisine was radically better before ww2, but it’s not the case
NOT very often. The article you linked to specifically used phrasing like “not uncommon” to talk about its frequency

Looks like an arrest where the cops let them cover their faces with empty binders so that reporters couldn’t get pics of them being arrested. I believe they don’t let anyone do this unless the perps are strongly connected with the authorities
EDIT
The website put the pic into the wrong article

262·4 months agoIt’s even possible that the boat adds basically no additional drag, and it’s even remotely possible that it decreases drag.

Not voting either way is also an option
