Even as sex workers women cannot escape being expected to take care of men’s emotions. At least they are getting paid for it.

“Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down. That’s not my department,” says Wernher von Braun.

Ah thanks, I always wondered why I can see some images but not others.

You’re quitting early. That’s not even half the fun of predecimal British currency. There is so much more:

Edit: Well, that didn’t work. Let me see, if I can fix it.

Edit2: or maybe it did? I can see the image in the browser, just not in the app. Here is the link, in case someone else can’t see it: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a4/British_predecimal_currency.svg

Oooh, I never noticed that difference, just remembered there being a timestamp. TIL, thanks.

Maybe it was shared through an app. If I share a YouTube video from NewPipe, by default it will add the time code to the URL.

I really made a fool of myself, haven’t I?

Well, for what do we live, but to make sport for our neighbours, and laugh at them in our turn?

I don’t think the ancient Greeks used Roman numerals. Though to be fair, I-III should be easy to understand anyway.

I get that. It shouldn’t be necessary to do research just to be sure it’s safe. I apologise for my aggressive tone. It must be really scary and exhausting to live somewhere like that. My country is still holding up but seems to be sliding slowly in that direction too.

So do whatever makes you stay safe and feel safe.

I’m sorry if I misgendered you. I was already exhausted from the other comments that clearly state that they are men and probably was biased in that regard. But my point still stands that there is no reason to completely forego tracking apps.

Drip, the app mentioned several times in this thread, let’s you encrypt the locally stored database with a password you have to enter every time you open the app. How is that not safer than a random piece of paper?

It’s so exhausting that this thread is full of men telling women what they should and shouldn’t do while having very little knowledge about the topic.

Do people need an app for taking notes? Or a calendar?

Sure, I used to do it on paper for many years. But it’s much more convenient to track it on my phone, which I have almost always with me. That way I can check whether I’m likely to be bleeding heavily before making plans with my friends to go swimming that day or on a long hike without access to a toilet.

Also many women don’t just track the blood flow but also other data like temperature, cervix and cervical mucus. This helps calculate the most fertile days. It’s much easier to let an app do that.

Can’t misrepresent women if you don’t represent them. Taps forehead.

The scary part is, that for them “everyone” is having fun. Because women are usually not included in their everyone.

I’ve heard of several “Pflanzentauschtage” (“plant trade days”) here in Germany as well.

It’s missing the “No, but I get paid for this, so I should probably work on it anyway” option

For what it’s worth, while there certainly are public bathrooms with stalls from floor to ceiling, the most common design does have gaps between the floor and the stall (at least here in Germany). Just not as big as the gaps in the US. You’d have to get uncomfortably close to the floor of a public bathroom to see anything. And no gaps between the door and the walls.

I know this is just a joke, but he very much meant to cut us all off. He changed his number his stage name, because he didn’t want to be a famous artist.

Me: hits return.

Word: “Sure, here, a new line. I already indented it for you, same as the one before. Like a good IDE.”

Me: “That’s nice of you, Word, but I want this one to be indented one tab stop less than the line before.” Hits delete.

Word: “Delete, you say? Sure, back to the line before.”

Me: “No, no! Just delete one tab! Maybe, if I select the line and hit dele…”

Word: “Why of course!”

Me: “Shit, it’s gone. Undo! Hmm… Move the thingy here on top?”

Word: “Move all the lines you say? No problem!”

Me: “Nvm, I’ll just indent everything by hand with spaces.”

The civilisation of ancient Egypt lasted 3000 years and now we think of them as a homogeneous group who all built pyramids and wrote in hieroglyphs.
