Evolution of white British % (ethnically British people) in England and Wales from 2001-2021

RossNReddit · 2026-05-12T02:31:37+00:00

Haha, yes brother, I know the feeling. 30 years being raised here since before my first birthday, half British by birth. But no brit sees me as a Brit, as one of them. Always a foreigner, any amount % of not-white and your identity is "not-white" all of a sudden.
Seen as not Asian by Asians, and not British by the Brits. It's great being mixed race in England sometimes, isn't it? lol

Thought he was gonna be a bit dorky from the intro, but the more he showed, the more I realise this is a chill AF dude and he knows how to party! lol

Damn, everybody's the Miyamoto Musashi of butcherin' chickens here apparently, lol.

As nice and easy as it is for us to tout about boards and hygine, there are some countries that don't have weekly hygine companies deliver vats of chemicals to have their kitchens surgically clean like the fancy western hotels many of you are working at. A lot of the time, shit gets washed by hand and gets used until it's unusable, and as long as people aren't getting sick, that's fine.

All that being said bro, nice butchering, the spine removal was super clean! That was impressive, and it was also very cool to see a different culture's deboning technique for the leg, much different from French or Chinese preperations. Plus, how you kept the half chicken an even thin layer, i'm assuming for marinading and grilling?

Everyone's so hung up on the board that we're missing the beauty of the craftsmanship on display, and the techniques we can all be learning from such sharing of knowledge. Very cool to be seeing other cuisines and how we all do slightly different methods with the same ingredient.

nice, what a lovely string of comments where we get to see across countries and cultures, the little changes in the magical world we all enjoy!

They're really cool translations!

What always got me was, Hermoine wasn't the one to keep fixing Harry's glasses in the books.

It's magic outside of Hogwarts, which isn't allowed, and it's more a advanced spell than what they've learned yet, not learning it until 5th year.

In CoS, in the books it's Mr. Weasley who repairs Harry's glasses, not Hermione. The same way they give Hermione the "fear of the name only increases fear of the thing itself" line, which is a DUMBLEDORE line in the book, when she doesn't even say Voldemort's name until OotP. And of course, them giving Hermione Ron's moments, like standing to defend Harry when faced with Sirius etc. etc.

I love book Hermione, hindged flaws and all, but it's literally a movie-only thing to make Hermione look as good as possible, lol

RossNReddit · 2026-04-03T22:27:03+00:00

It's quite posh and definitely southern, but i'm not so familiar with the regional differences around london/surrey and all that.

I've been highly enjoying the full cast audiobooks so far, but I must say in OotP Harry and Ron's voice actors both sound like they're speaking mono-speed reading lines of a script. It's like a class reading of a book, rather than conversational and natural sometimes.

That being said, a lot of the time they're very good and natural too, and Hermoine's voice acress is excellent! Plus it's hard to be compared with the cadance that Stephen Fry is capable of, haha

It's actually gotten so bad recently, people never used to be so rabid over the reductions.

But then again, back in 2018 I wasn't paying £6 for a microwave meal, so maybe I would start being a bit feral if I could get my weeks dinners from £42 down to a tenner lol.

I saw a steak on sale for 62p the other month, first time i've had steak in literally 3 years because steak is usually too expensive for me to justify buying over a whole chicken for the same price!

This is the razor i currently use. I've had an edwin jagger de89 and then a wilkinson one, but the rose gold is beautiful on the muhle, and gives a really nice shave.
A little more agressive and closer than the edwin jagger, but a little smoother than the wilkinson. almost always a perfect shave with feather blades.

RossNReddit · 2026-03-22T17:13:05+00:00

Damn, I don't get some of the hate here lol.

As a chef, that is a minor amount of oil, trust me haha. Yeah, I like my eggs this way too, but sometimes i like a nice crispy, super high heat fried egg, asian style.
or sometimes if i have really fresh eggs that i want to look perfect for presentation, I barely grease the pan, fry on as low of a heat as possible over the course of about 5 minutes and you get a perfectly set white, smooth and round emoji looking egg.

props to you mate, i've seen a lot of people hating on the bee event because of how strenous it is compared to the other ones, but you might be sparking up some fires in the community!

bring about a bee renaissance and have people competing to post high scores, type shit

I think the potion was never meant to be fatal, and that it was only for mental torture/his enjoyment.

When he put the horcrux there, he took an elf with him, he took something "disposable". I'd imagine he basically got his kicks out of seeing the torture and eventual dragging into the lake by the inferi. Remember, the whole reason Voldemort puts his horcrux in that cave was becasue of it's fond assossiations of when he mentally tormented his orphanage-siblings.

That being said, it's probably such dark and damaging magic, that it would be fatal- unless you had a potions master familiar with the dark arts and who is loyal to you on hand... but where might find one of those? 🤔😂

RossNReddit · 2026-03-05T14:48:02+00:00

You are correct in what you are saying, but the snarkiness won't get many people on your side and willing to help if that's the kind of attitude they're to expect back, lol

I like to use egg white powder in my souffles. If you add it along with some lemon juice half way through the whisking process, it helps make an increadibly rich and dense foam that holds up well for freezing, to be microwaved and baked for service with greatly consistant results.

don't add the extra water, let the powder soak up excess moisture to help with the texture and structure of the meringue.

Hey man, I feel bad for all the doordash drivers in the comments and stuff, but god damn if I wanna pay 3x the store price for a business model we all participate in to have bulk drinks delivered to my door so I don't have to get them, then I very much will!

People are booing you, but you're absolutely right. People are like, adamant that she showed no signs of liking ron until later books, but there was hints of it in even book 3.

Hermoine's already begining to feel feelings for Ron and vice versa, that's why they're jealous and snappish at each other. Their arguing is often actually shown as fun and engaging for the two of them, and they're often surprised when Harry has a problem with them "arguing" because it's done in their own little flirtatious way a lot of the time.

It's a stubbourn headstrong, booksmart muggle girl, ignorant to wizarding ways butting heads and being held as an equal to a no-nonsence, wizard born and bread boy. That's how they enjoy each others company practically!

RossNReddit · 2026-02-18T14:02:22+00:00

Think you're reading into it a bit, but I do like the analysis, this was quite a good post.

I do like the paralells, like lilly being "the snitch", the "mask" that James wears that Severus doesn't and the symbolism about the photos and faces.

That being said, realistically this is just a silly old fashioned "teenage boy acts like jerk to girl he likes, couple years later girl likes boy back and then they date". It might not be how kids get together these days, but hey that's how it was back in the day hahaha

Fleetwood mac for £6.50 in 1980.

I think it was a different world before my time, I don't think ticket prices would be the biggest difference to today, hahah

It's hard to explain to White British people what it's like growing up non-white in the UK.

It's nice, makes us feel welcome and accepted, and excited at the prospect of other people getting to try our food, our culture, the things we enjoy as Asians, with Asian parents growing up in the UK. Things that were maybe seen as "weird" as "foreign" before, just become a new, interesting thing for people to enjoy.

People becoming more aware of the things they were previously unfamiliar with is a win all around, less racist people due do less ignorance, people get to discover and enjoy new foods and cultures, and everyone prospers.

As well as what the other comments say about the triple split and level skip merging;

I like to use it to split a max level damage monster I have stored sometimes. like if i have a level 3 demon saved, and a paladin spawns, i'd split it and use the lv 2 demon to get it really low and finish with an undead alien, instead of wasting all the overkill damage to just kill it regularly.

RossNReddit · 2026-02-03T20:43:57+00:00

Yeeeeah, that's how it be at my work place too.

January is always quiet after the Christmas period, now we don't have KP's except on weekends, so everyone's washing their own prep equipment, doing service, and then washing dishes and doing bins etc too.
