I’m probably going to move out of Austria in a few months and the one thing that’ll take a while to get used to is that in most other European countries you ‘only’ get 13 wages a year instead of the 14 I’m used to.

I used to live way outside of town and there weren’t any night buses on weekdays, so I got a moped at 15. I just didn’t drink at all when I hung out with friends on weekdays, even when I turned 16 and it became legal, because I had to drive. It wasn’t hard to do and nobody batted an eye. So, the alternative is not drinking. Having no alternative transport is a poor excuse for drunk driving.
Edit: tangent point the above image in the post reminded me of.
For every person who thinks they’re interesting for hating a popular thing, there’s ten who will be like OMG YOU THINK YOURE SO SPECIAL AND BETTER THAN EVERYONE when you casually mention you don’t particularly care for a popular thing.
That’d also harm big corporations less than small, independent artists who don’t get paid as much per use of their artwork.
Under capitalism, copyrights are a necessary tool for people to get paid for their labour in some cases. That’s not the most common usecase for copyrights, but a needed one until we get a better system. Fuck copyrights being used for corporate greed though. Somehow, more people are against the former than the latter, which is super wrong. But it’s not a reason to be against the former in addition to being against the latter.
That is an aggressively shitty way to present that data
I’m both like you and a fidgeter myself. It sucks. I do try to fidget subtlely- I like rubbing my fingernails with the thumb of the same hand.
Huh I thought since most are moisturizing that they were basically lotion with extra sun protecting ingredients!
Not questioning that you can die of nicotine overdose! I mean, you can die from water overdose. More wondering what the LD50 was, and if the butt of one cigarette was enough to be lethal.
I’ve been wondering why so much sunscreen has alcohol, exactly because of what you explained. Do you happen to know?
One time when I was a drunk dumb teen I ate half a cigarette and I didn’t die. Didn’t even feel anything. I hear that thing about a cig butt killing a child a lot, I wonder if anyone has a source?
Disclaimer: it’s not a good idea either way

Droggelbecher@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Wearing socks *is* a social constructEnglish21·8 days agoIt’s more nuanced. It’s ‘this is a social construct, therefore I can just decide whether I want to accept it, and I dont’
Droggelbecher@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Wearing socks *is* a social constructEnglish31·8 days agoWith the added /s it still reads like you’re using an example to explain why things shouldn’t be rejected based on them being social constructs. The edit just reads like you’re smug about it. If that’s not what you’re saying, can you explain what you mean?

Valid to not care!
I have fun with my nails, I don’t see them as expected/socially required maintenance. In my field it’s actually seen as less professional to have long nails, especially in noticable polish. I get excited when I get to work from home for a week because that means I can go crazy with nails and makeup.
As far as I know they take a bit of a glance at the entire area to check if there’s any potential health concerns, as you’re already there and you’re likely not showing that area to other doctors or checking it yourself. e.g. problematic moles.
