Is this the X marketing team or something? You’ve posted about discussing BBQ with different nations twice in the comments here

It completely took over twitter for like a week and it was endearing. I made this myself (with grok's help) to celebrate: https://i.imgur.com/MG9mUxW.jpeg

If you're rejecting X out of hate for Musk, you're simply missing out on some really cool stuff happening.

The BBQ thing a huge international thing. I learned that the Japanese have a term that translates as "food terrorism": pictures of mouthwatering food that you only get to look at, not eat.

It was a bigger deal than even I'm conveying and honestly heartwarming.

  • This sounds delightful and wholesome. :D

    I think it's easy to lose sight of these pockets of mundane goodness, and I appreciate you highlighting them.

  • “If you reject the Nazi bar out of hate for Nazis, you’re simply missing out on some really cool stuff happening.”

    Do you hear how ridiculous that sounds? I’m not going to grab a beer at the Nazi bar just because there are occasionally cool people there who aren’t Nazis.

    No, a slop generator generated it for you. You did not make it yourself, in any sense of the phrase.
