just looking at that first picture, I wonder what the psychological effect on a person would be just from dressing up in an expensive suit and spending all day in a big office at the top of a tower, looking out over a city full of workers scurrying like ants far below. is it any wonder that these people are sociopaths?
Have to be honest, this is the first time I've actually been repulsed by seeing Trump.
Before there was some kinda fascinating comedy to his existence and general vibe, but this is uncanny, what the fuck happened to him, what were they doing to him every day in office to keep him from becoming this?
That presidential adrenochrome is the good shit, they mix it with real child blood.
I honestly believe they were injecting him with loads of shit and I'm really curious to find out what it is.
Highly doubt oxidized adrenaline has any redeeming qualities though
I was joking about the adrenochrome. While I wouldn't be surprised if he was getting some kind of chemical cocktail to keep his dessicated husk animate I'd assume he's just not wearing any makeup and we aren't used to seeing :trump-anguish: bare faced. Had a roommate that almost looked like a different person without her makeup on.
yea I know you're joking
I'm just reiterating that even if someone is into the conspiracy shit it still doesn't make sense from a biological POV
tbh it could be his 20+ covid infections catching up with him
I definitely don't look as good as I used to after covid and I've only been infected 4x
unrelatedly, he has the same "uncanny" vibe here that I always got from David Duke. Maybe it's something in the anglo-celtic brainpan.

Can't see the whites of his eyes so they look beady and goblinlike

Huge hat makes his head look disproportionately squat
God yeah the hat, it makes him look like fucking benjamin button.

I can't tell how ironic this post is, but China's working on breeding monounsaturated strains of soybeans: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-00395-x
There's already hi-oleic varieties of sunflower, safflower, and peanut oil out there. I think corn and soybean oil are the only ones that I haven't seen.
Not even sure what all this means, just assuming the US has taken the worst possible approach and it involves corn, my mortal enemy
Folks, you can tell, because he's weepy, he's weepy folks, and there are many such cases - just so many cases of the wet boy going out like a room-temp parm, and I don't even mean like the big John-McCain Brain parm Folks!, but I mean that there really are many such cases of the big wet boy being a weepy chunka-hunka parmesean, like the kind the cook brings to the table, and when he brings it to the table you know, I know, that parm's been out there forever, and frankly, folks, I'll keep letting them give me sweaty parm.
damn I love to eat murdered animal juice. I wish McDonald's factory cows screamed like they did in the old days. Well there are more screams now but they're worse quality.
I'd see your point if skipping the tallow made things at all better for the animals, but they're already dead and being processed into burgers at that point. Using the tallow gets a little more out of it. The best thing to do if you don't want to be involved in animal cruelty at McDonald's is not eat from McDonald's. I fully, 100% agree with you that McDonald's is evil when it comes to animals, so I just don't eat there and will refuse any offer of food from their.
if tallow were not sold, it would be slightly less profitable to murder cows. "use the whole animal" arguments don't hold water
I agree it would be slightly less profitable, but I don't think that actually affects the number of cows killed. I don't think they kill some cows for tallow and other for beef. The tallow either gets thrown out or gets mixed into burgers. I would guess thrown out because McDonald's wants every burger identical and the taste would change with more fat added.
True, and that furthers my point it not a single cow is saved or dies based on tallow fries.

Can be used in other, less-profitable ways. McDonald's sells waste to other companies, they're not stupid. (I believe they're a little unusual in that they actually own the body processing facilities - normal restaurants buy from a distributor like US Foods, and the bodies are processed by their suppliers. Normally the question of "what to do with tallow" would be answered by a company like Tyson.)
If margins are thinner on murdering animals, and consumers can't stomach a cost increase, businesses running closer to the margin will die or adjust their behavior. In this case McDonald's might sell some of its processing plants (or terminate contracts that will cause partner factories to go out of business, at least some of them are not wholly owned).
This argument is stupid because you can flip it around any which way. "We can't stop eating burgers because otherwise the meat from the tallow cows would be wasted." If you're arguing for total McDonald's abolition that's cool I guess. Otherwise I encourage you to read some vegan theory. There's good stuff in /c/vegan sidebar. I have better things to do than argue with bloodmouths.
I really don't see them losing enough money it would make sense to sell their meat processing plants. I would also sure hope if we somehow decided we were never eating meat again on a systemic level we would finish the meat we already have rather than just let it rot. Anyway you've hit the nail on the head I want McDonald's totally abolished.
Seed oil is one of the latest health 'bogeyman'. You'll see all sorts of wild claims about how bad it is, and wild conspiracy about them making us eat it. Probably a nugget of truth in that its probably not great, but I'm skeptical of it being worse for you than beef tallow.
Regardless, McD's used to use beef tallow for fry oil, meaning their frys and hashbrowns have been meaty for a while. The recently switched to using seed oil in the US. FWIW, they've been using seed oil outside the US, where people want to avoid beef more often, for a few decades now.

I'm pretty sure they switched in 1990
Ah, my bad; I searched it up, as I had been told they weren't vegan/vegetarian due to the tallow, but you're right, I misheard or misremembered.
However, they do still have beef flavor in their oil to this day in the US (or so a quick google search tells me), meaning they still are not suitable for vegans, or Hindus for that matter. I have been told that they don't put the beef flavor in there internationally, but I'm not sure
I apologize again then, I was under the impression that Hinduism prohibited eating beef
Hydrogenated vegetable/seed oils tend to not be great for your health, especially if you're an individual who is eating McDonald's for lunch everyday.
judging by the dried pampas grass in the background, that was probably taken in the late 1980s.
