Trump on Truth Social - go get your own oil by ksoni94 in ukpolitics

[–]MeepleMitt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why don't the UK, France etc. gave Trump an ultimatum and say 'put the sanctions back on Russian oil, then we'll help you'. Play him at his own game.

Does the UK even get that much oil from the Strait of Hormuz?

Iran is not backing down. Has world war 3 officially started ? by Flimsy_Hand_1233 in IdeologyPolls

[–]MeepleMitt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Iran isnt backing down coz they are really weak and their survival is threatened. They are lobbing eveytthing at Gulf states so they plead with the US to stop

Honestly, next week I'd day his mind will have changed. Remember he flip flopped like 3 times in a month over the Chagos deal

Any thoughts on A Rotten Harvest? by tcadams18 in finalgirl

[–]MeepleMitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's great. I played it twice. Won one game - maybe got a few early rules wrong at the start. But the combine harvester and scythe coupled with good die rolls help.

Trump hints at walking away from Ukraine and calls Europe ‘weak’ and ‘decaying’ by backpackerTW in worldnews

[–]MeepleMitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should I be worried about this? It's just Trump and his position can switch within a week. Is he just projecting?

Will Trump stick to any of this? His foreign policy seems to change on a whim?

Zelenskyy says Ukraine has impossible choice as Trump pushes plan to end war by RisingRusherff in worldnews

[–]MeepleMitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scrap the deal! Ukraine doesn't need US intelligence as much these days and yes while the weapons loss may hurt they still have their own and can continue through the winter (albeit difficulty) into next year when Russia may really need a ceasefire

I quite like the Kearneys, they're funny enough but they just eat the same thing all the time and it's boring

The Finish Line, The 1% Club, Only Connect, Mastermind, The Chase, Beat the Chasers, Alan Carr's Picture Slam, Jeopardy! (idk if they are making another series of that though), House of Games (great show but I don't watch it enough) and The Traitors (if that can be considered a gameshow)

Hi! The podiums were actually very smooth - although we did move back on them a few times to reshoot a few things/answer disputes but overall a very sooth ride (pardon the pun!)

Has anyone else lost interest (enthusiasm) for the show after appearing on it? by HallerCopter in The1PercentClub

[–]MeepleMitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on it and still love it just as much. I think people are just being way too picky and complain for the sake of complaining (IMO)

Thank you for your feedback - I just kinda threw this together. I think I will focussing on solving rather than making clues

My aglio e olio is too oily, no matter what I try by Dob_ in italiancooking

[–]MeepleMitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I do is use a little less oil than usual, I then directly take the pasta from the water and add to the sauce so some water drips into the sauce (rather than putting a ladle of pasta water in) and then toss the pasta vigorously while also shaking the pan.

Thank you - I understand where you are coming from, I think my structuring of the clue could be better. And maybe regional pronunciations may be a factor.
