I really loved the beginning episodes, since it was fun to watch Lucy just do whatever the fuck he wanted, with his powers enabling him. That was fresh! But the moment that stopped, I lost my interest completely. I’ve never even read the wikipedia summary, I just… don’t care, at all. Another boring ass-sitcom with a super generic demons-angels -setting. What a disappointment

Yes! Makes no fucking sense. Transwomen are men when it’s convenient, but these people sure as hell won’t actually consider them as men either since even feminine cis-men are mocked and called women by a lot of this crowd… I guess the whole argument would actually be “there’s only men and women!! And these other things that aren’t even people” if they were honest

Thank you! I’m relatively good at written english, but the spoken one always gets me…

The whole thing is about controlling women in essence. These people try to define what a proper woman is; how they should look and act, how they should be, and then enforce that over everyone. Bathroom laws are a good example, as is accusing all athletes that don’t fit petite feminine stereotype being trans as well. These demands of “proper” will also get more and more narrow if they get foothold. Don’t want to wear dresses and make up? Too hairy, too tall? Too loud, too smart? Too bad, you’re not a woman and deserve to be assaulted.

Any woman, trans or cis, supporting any form of transphobia is shooting themselves in the leg. Especially terfs are asinine since they’re even pretending to be for women’s rights while simultaneously doing their best to eradicate them

What?! Are polish and polish pronounced differently?

Exercising because you cannot afford healthcare offers the illusion of control, but it won’t solve the problem

Fair enough

Borrowing itself is normal, yeah, but english tends to go to the extremes with that. Even yoinking words like smörgåsbord as they are

Oh yeah, I 100% agree with that. Just lamenting about how a lot of people are… well, dull.

I always strongly encourage everyone to try shaving their head bald at least once, just to feel how it is. There’s nothing like having your scalp finally not itchy at all. No hairs pulling in any direction. Chilly in a pleasant way. It’s amazing!

The only downside for me is that I’m already visibly ill, so I look just like a cancer patient lmao

Yeah that’s not blood. It’s too bright to be that dry, and you can even see the pen marks; that’s been colored with a pen, not even painted on. If there was that much blood, it wouldn’t be in that uniform color and thickness, the actual splattering pattern would be very different, and it certainly would have dripped between the fingers

A lot of people will happily consume anything if they enjoy it even a bit and it doesn’t take any effort to digest. Doesn’t need to be good nor offer meaning or anything, if it’s just easy and pleasurable enough to make passing time a little more bearable. Empty calories for the soul is a good way to put it, but to a lot of people that’s still plenty enough. Engaging with art requires at least some effort. Mentally, emotionally, sometimes physically…

English really is the weird one in this. Constructing new words with old ones makes a lot more sense than just stealing the words from other languages and mashing them in without changing much

Try taking a nap? If you’re not tired (as if!), just lie down and daydream for a while or something. If exercise doesn’t cut it, the opposite might. It’s also good for you to just do nothing sometimes

It’s highly dependent how much cheese you put on it, really. Just the base and some (quality) toppings aren’t the problem, but if half of the content is cheese, that’s way too much fat and energy. Personally I don’t like cheese so I only sprinkle a minimal amount of it on top, but I’ve observed most people feel the total opposite and drenching the whole thing in cheese seems to be the preferred way to consume it…

You are correct, basically only Vatican actively uses latin these days, and even they don’t really converse in it or anything. And it is “just” church latin, not classical latin, which was the written standard for Roman times, nor vulgar latin, which was what people actually spoke (and which in short evolved into other romance languages we still have these days). There’s still some academic latin in use, but it’s basically disappearing as well, though some universities still allow you to submit your thesis in it etc.

So yeah, latin is very much dead as a native language, but it’s “alive” through other means (a lot of use survive in science and law for example, and it’s still widely taught in different schools and universities and all that). English itself has kinda absorbed a lot of latin, something like 25% of the vocabulary is straight from latin, and I had one professor claim you could technically link up to 75% of the english vocabulary to latin if you accept it’s evolved and/or gone through other languages.

But really, unless you manage to slaughter all the people speaking it in or they stop teaching it to their children and thus it disappears in a relatively short period of time, languages don’t really “die”, they just evolve into something else as time passes. So it can be a bit hard to describe when something as widely used as latin really died

It is recyclable, since it’s metal. If you have any recycling infrastructure around where you live, there’s probably some place or company or similar, that will take all sorts of stuff, as recycling it can be profitable. Have you already tried searching “metal recycling (your area)” or something like that?

There’s certain common patterns this dynamic seems to take:

• They end up in that type of traditional marriage for fifty years where the wife controls absolutely everything and the man throws around jokes about ball and chain. This ends when either one dies; if the man dies first, the wife will live happily for another ten years, but if the wife dies first, the man follows soon
• The man loses all sights of himself and becomes a passive and meek “yes, dear” -man, and then the girlfriend (or wife if they managed to get married) eventually gets bored since the project car isn’t fun anymore, and cheats or just straight up leaves him. This pattern might also involve straight up domestic violence where the man is too embarrassed and scared to seek help
• The girlfriend (or wife again) gets tired of taking care of a manchild instead of having an equal partner, and leaves. This happens especially if they have children and the wife realizes it’s actually easier to take care of the children alone. Often the man also ends up whining about how he doesn’t understand what he did wrong, and thought everything was going so well

But the thing is, if it turns out to be harmful, it’s too late if we have used it - we can’t get it out of nature anymore. Which is a fucking big risk to take considering the effects research has already proven with the other PFAS. That’s kinda the whole problem with persistent organic pollutants

Only if they are persistent organic pollutants as well
