The third type of leavening, pearlash, was the precursor to modern baking powder. Pearlash was a purified form of potash. It was first used as a leavening agent by Native Americans and was the subject of the first patent in the United States, issued in April 1790.[17]

People just kind of assume that the people in their lives share their politics, so breaking that illusion can help them navigate their social lives, I feel.

i agree to an extent, but the title of the post reads like spam, and the user didn't even try to do anything to engage as a person. if they really just wanted to extoll the virtues of a mediterranean diet they can try again and instead actually post about it

it's a bit of a confusing one for me because as far as i could tell it's just an informative (no judgment of quality being implied here) webpage? it's a single-issue webpage reminiscent of old geocities pages, even. i was even successful in building a narrative in my head of some silly jerk genuinely joining a forum (as in, not spamming) and having their first gambit be posting that

after the failure of sanders and corbyn somehow i doubt that the point of ostensibly "left" parties "adopting" rightwing policies is to win votes but rather guarantee the profits and ideologies of the donor class. they have no incentive or interest in actually governing or delivering even the weak progressive policies they claim to support because they do quite well off of donations, insider trading, "speeches" for the private sector, etc

Twitter banned me for no discernible reason and I couldn't manage to make another account so it has spared me from debate clubs. Mysterious are His ways!

Honestly the jank is worse. I experience lots of lag or the app sending me a mile upwards, I got banned for absolutely no reason - I wasn't even beefing with anyone - and there hasn't been any follow back from X since I appealed their decision with their support, users are rate limited now so you can no longer search users' tweets or their likes, media and replies.
I tried to make a new account but couldn't get it to work. It might work now, but at least I can read tweets while banned.

I don't have the problem of No Body on Blusky since some of my favorite twitter people quit the service formerly known as Twitter and hang out on Blusky instead. So just from my POV there are people to talk to there. That's true of Twitter for the moment as well but the attrition is real and visible. I mostly just view specific users to see whether there's any updates.
I only use Blusky on my phone so I can't comment on the desktop UX but to me Twitter is weirdly laggy making, e.g., long threads impossible to read without constant reloading and losing your place.
Really my problems with Twitter are the banal ones, the ghost towning, degradation of latency and UX and threats of further downgrades. The political aspects of the enshittefication haven't been enough to stop being a habitual user. I remember taking a month off because I was too compulsive at Twitter, but I am no longer under any threat of that.
