President Biden has limited hamburger consumption to ONE burger per month for all Americans and has banned meat based beer.
OMG Vegetarian only beer!

I imagine it has to do with GOP misinformation.

.. as long as it's not cats...

This thread reminds me..

Three decades ago I was a member of a cultural exchange visit to the Czech Republic.
Something I enjoyed once or twice a year back in those days.

On this visit we attended a formal event at a provincial Czech traditional brewery.
We were shown into a very large dusty room
where grains were spread out carpeting the floor as part of the brewing process.

I noticed cats randomly wandering around through the grains.
One obvious guess was they were brewery employees protecting the spread out grains from mice.
However the room also looked like one gigantic cat litter tray..

I've never trusted cats.

Nevertheless, whatever the processing hygiene standards of the the place and era , the beer we enjoyed sampling was fantastic...

Anyone who actually believes that Democrats are paedophiles, kill babies and drink their blood have no problem at all in believing lesser stuff.

But lamenting "plant-based' beer is a special kind of stupid.

PFR, the Highland Park distillery on the mainland of Orkney also has cats on staff, and indeed the malting floor would be irresistible to any caught-short cat I’ve ever known. I rather think, however, that the toasting and distilling processes prevent any offensive matter from affecting the spirit.

If not, what a way to go!

A series of short video clips on Instagram (shared by the Daily Show - a great source of news!) shows how a mistaken chart in a university report was grabbed by FOX to suggest that Americans won't be able to eat nearly as much beef because of climate change projections.

Antisemitism is up 135% (all time high) in DC with violence and vandalism - typically because the jews killed Christ. The Romans were just rubbernecking onlookers.

Burger King will begin selling Impossible BEER, taking sports bets and offering safe sex prostitution.

Q based Cyber Ninjas are recounting Arizona Trump votes with taxpayer money. ...OOPS that one is completely true.

> one burger per month for all Americans?

How do they cut that one burger into 328 million pieces?

Czech bear is considered to be equal to the best. I believe the original Budweiser was the Czech Budvar Budweiser's owners apparently tried to buy the Czech brewhouse and was turned down thank god, but that was a long time ago.

The burger thing was a topic for Rachael Maddow last night.. she had fun explaining that it was totally made up 'somewhere', but being pedaled as fact by OAN news channel.. (to the extreme right of Faux News)
As my first reply indicates, I don't respond well to simple remarks with no explanation or links.
Color me bright red pedant...

There is a current misinformation campaign regarding masks and vaccines that appears on Fox, Tucker Carlson, and Facebook. Repeating those lies serves one. Not even satire. Many hearts and minds are confused by Putin and Russian bots again.

A private school in Florida warns teachers not to come to school if they're vaccinated.

You read that right.

Also, Kevin McCarthy now tells Chris Wallace that quick action by President Trump ended the Capitol riot:

Hardly 'health freedom' if you're penalising people for having vaccinations!

Typically?

Your statement is based on what exactly?

Telling the truth is such a novelty,
that it may start trending,
with fashion conscious media and politicians flocking to have a go at it...???

To tell the truth I wouldn't be surprised if the original Q was Sasha Baron Cohen.

Mark Twain observed that the truth was so valuable we must economize it.
