We have a dessert called pets de sœur (nun farts in French) in my region, but they're more like cinnamon rolls made with brown sugar instead of cinnamon rather than what's depicted here. They were traditionally made with the remaining scraps of dough while baking pies.
I have no idea if this is how people actually say 'Comedy/Comedic Music' in French.
I'd probably say "musique humoristique"!
I read their comment as proposing to aim for potential self-sufficiency. That doesn't necessarily imply isolationism. Developing homegrown options isn't mutually exclusive with global trade.
It can just mean having domestic alternatives to assert our sovereignty in case, say, a fascist movement takes over the government of our largest trading partner with who we share the world's longest border, or something like that. Purely a hypothetical, of course.
Not particularly, and while I admit this can seem hypocritical, the verb "to google" has just become a generic trademark.
When someone says band-aid, or kleenex, or jello, I think of bandages, tissues, or gelatin desserts, not of a specific brand of these products. Same goes with "googled", it just means "searched the web" now rather than specifically using Google.
Yeah I've noticed this user basically inserts a "kagis" into like 2/3 of their comments, it always slightly irks me because it makes me feel like I'm getting advertised at. I've never felt the need to proclaim which search engine(s) I've used to research any particular comment on Lemmy, and I find it odd that the one person who does so regularly is doing it for a paid service.
Apart from that, their comments are usually pretty good, so I'm not accusing them of shilling or anything, but I find it super peculiar.
I'm really thankful this event was cancelled, but honestly quite infuriated that their permit was approved in the first place. It shouldn't take public outrage in order to not have fascists preaching their hateful rhetoric in public parks.
A few years ago some drag queen friends of mine received death threats before a performance in this very same park. Queer and other marginalized peoples don't deserve to be faced with violence in a city-approved public performance.
Why don't Presidents fight the war? Why do they always send the poor?
It's even more impressive when you learn his father was killed by a careless driver.
I used to pirate movies my older neighbour wanted to see and burn them on blank DVDs because she felt way more comfortable having discs than streaming. That could be an option if you have a tech-averse person in your life you care about.
She had a bunch of empty cases too, and would make customer covers for each movie with a sharpie and a piece of paper.
Here's the original video on CyclingMikey's YouTube channel!
I love his calm and simple approach to calling out dangerous behaviour from motorists.
I won't say that isn't a valid interpretation, but I've always thought the joke was simply "paranoid conspiracist thinks everyone is out to get him except the guy fucking his wife".
I think it also highlights Dale's sweet side; despite his tendency towards conspiracy, he refuses to see the obvious when Nancy is cheating on him because he is 100% in love and trusting of her. He literally can't imagine her betraying his trust like that. He will believe that Joseph is half-alien before doubting Nancy of wrongdoing.

L'nouvel album va sortir le 26 avril! J'suis déjà ben hyped pis j'ai mes tickets pour le premier soir à Moncton!
You'd think they'd, I don't know, google the artist before granting the permit? Even outside of fascists, there are plenty of performances I'd feel are probably inappropriate for a public park, even some I'd personally enjoy.
It's wild to me that they'd grant a permit without doing any research into the people performing/organizing.
