  @St1ka@peoplemaking.games: There's also white and black pudding, along with haggis, which are entirely different things themselves.

  @benroyce@mastodon.social: The question is, though, can Trump convince people into another war on the ground? Because air strikes are one thing, but another war with urban and mountain warfare is a quagmire waiting to happen.

  @davidgerard@circumstances.run: Stoat's the one I've heard as the closest to a direct replacement under the criteria you mention, albeit text chat only so far, AFAIK.
