Pizza - noun - a dish made typically of flattened bread dough spread with a savory mixture usually including tomatoes and cheese and often other toppings and baked

-Merriam-Webster Dictionary

That’s what I see here, I don’t see the tomatoes specifically but there’s a lot of cheese that might be covering those tomatoes. Even if there are no tomatoes, the definition uses the term “usually” which is not always.

What constitutes a pizza to you?

To be fair, I would be mildly infuriated if I was expecting a pizza with popular toppings and I opened a box to find this.

I didn’t mean to come off as a jerk, I’m just sensitive to the snark that gets thrown around over stupid things like this. I’ve seen those jokey comments about pineapple on pizza turn into personal attacks in real life just because someone was trying to defend a food they think tastes good. Of course the people who did that were “just joking”. Pineapple (or pickles) on pizza isn’t my thing but my girlfriend loves Hawaiian pizza and I’ll happily enjoy the leftovers.

Pickle pizza isn’t my thing but someone likes it, good for them. Move on and let people enjoy things.

If you’re going to come at me with a link about Ukraine, please make sure it’s from a website that’s not run by this guy:

Ben Aris: There’s a narrative in the mainstream media about, you know, “Stand with Ukraine and never report the negative stuff, only report the positive stuff.” But people I deal with, professional investors in particular, they’re interested in what’s actually going on because they’ve got money in the game in the form of investments and assets.

I don’t think the negative stuff shouldn’t be reported but fuck him and his professional investor friends.

BTW: Ben Aris has controlling interest in the company that owns the link you shared and got his start in journalism in Moscow.

Where are you reading that is a radar for ICBMs? The article just says a Krasukha radar jammer is reported to be there. Reading the Wikipedia article for these systems indicate that they can jam the radar for UAVs and drones. Since Ukraine has been using drones heavily, I can see why they would attack. I’m not saying that it doesn’t work against ballistic missiles but it’s seems like they have a lot of other applications to Russia’s war effort.

I use the Voyager app to browse Lemmy and it has those filters.

Same thing happened with US military aid in the Middle East for the last 20 years. We haven’t changed anything so why would this time be different? guessing in another year, we’ll see the same headline about the aid we sent to Israel.

So he’s offering that money to name it after himself?

I’m not even clicking on that link, I never click on stuff with that turd’s name on the headline, just wanted to make the joke.
