The white and pink thing? That's radish alright. It's similar to pink Ssam mu, which is very common in Korean BBQ, and has some tell tale signs in the pattern.

Nope, and at this point I don't feel like bothering. My life sucks for many reasons, but not having a partner is a pretty minor one. Many people's lives suck worse than mine as well.

I can't tell my hours, because I left it open while doing other stuff, and overnight etc. Same with Ark. Both have 8k+ hourly, but FFXIV has more (but isn't in steam for me).

Maybe they picked it up from Alex Jones. Certainly one of his favorite straps, and he sucks up heavily to both. He was praising Elon's jizz in the end of a bizarre knife ad he did recently.

It wasn't even canceled. His estate pulled the books themselves, 6 of them. If I find something I said earlier in life I don't agree with (extremely easy because I used to be religious and in a cult, now neither) then have I been canceled by the radical left? (I mean, I am far more left, but not sure I qualify for radical).

Weather update! It's raining rocks from outer space.

Maybe, but it does say "Trump loving", not Trump voting. I acknowledge and don't hold too hard a grudge on people who don't pay much attention and only vote on stuff they think will affect them. I still consider it selfish, but I will acknowledge some people have enough issues in their life to not realize how bad it could affect others.

For instance, one of my sisters friends voted for Trump in 2016 because she is a small business owner and thought he would be better for her business. I don't know how she has voted since, and she's a black mother in FL, so I hope she's changed her mind.

Still, I have seen people make excuses for themselves that they have to be responsible for their employees as well etc etc, so someone with a not hateful mindset may make a decision those of us more informed or plugged into may realize is much worse for them either way.

Edit, forgot my original point. The above included I don't think would be considered "Trump loving", so I think by that statement she's saying he loves more than just a policy or two.

I still replay those and enjoy them. Final Fantasy Tactics, War of the Lions as well. Personally I think they hold up, with maybe Secret of Mana being the worst of the three. I'm extremely positively biased toward Secret of Mana though as it was the first game me, my brother, and my sister could play at the same time on SNES, and was the first game we got with the system for that exact reason (we first experienced it visiting another house, before we even had a SNES, and they had a splitter. They showed us Secret of Mana and some multi-player basketball game I can't quite recall).

It's such a positive memory of us all being able to enjoy the same activity together without fighting over controllers etc(though maybe some fight over characters :P)

I think it isn't illegal if it can't grow a plant, so if heated or ground. You can buy ground hempseed, and i think i have some downstairs. Still, imports and such are much trickier, which is probably why they don't use it for exports. Also other countries may have stricter imports, and perhaps the company doesn't want the headache of verifying which market to send which product to.

It's similar to how most companies just conform to Californian restrictions rather than make different products for different states in the US.

I think it's Hempseed rather than weed itself, but proper Nanami/shichimi togarashi (7 spice blend, roughly translated) has Hempseed. Because of the ban on drugs and such, most exports and US versions exclude it though.

As an example, this site shows and advertises it's usage, then on the same page says:

Hemp seeds match sesame in terms of flavor and aroma. There is an old Japanese saying: "Those able to mill hemp seed are truly mature."

No hemp seeds are used in products for overseas markets.

This is in no way a defense, but rather an accusation: many other companies pull or have pulled similar things. Hasbro famously used near slave labor when they partnered with Good Shepherd Sisters, one of many similar "Magdalene Laundries"; religious convents that some women were put in for sins as horrifying as "having a baby out of wedlock."

Behind the Bastards discusses them in their episodes titled "How the catholic church murdered Ireland's babies"

For some reason on my client, it can't remove the spoiler (gives a network error). I'm assuming it says that since the ball has more mass, it has a higher attraction rate of its own gravity to Earth's, so does fall faster in a vacuum but so miniscule it would be hard to measure?
