Well he says it’s a puddle of piss

I hate bugs. I hate everything being full of bugs and flies and the trash cans outside stink like poop in the heat. I hate having bug babies everywhere. I hate having a deadly lazer above me so that I can only choose between burning myself alive, wearing disgusting cream, or covering up like crazy and sweating even more. All the food goes bad instantly. The food in the supermarket is infested with flies. I wake up at 4 am because stupid Altbau doesn’t allow for proper outside blinds. I hate that it’s either fucking up the environment even more by using AC or heat stroke. I also hate overdone AC in buildings that gives me a cold. Have you ever had a feverish cold during summertime? It’s awful. And makeup, you cannot do makeup in the heat without it becoming a smudge of sunscreen, color, oil and sweat. Have I mentioned the bugs and caterpillars and maggots and larvae and everything, everything is alive? And then, when it rains and everything cools down for a bit, you get earthworms.

You know what’s amazing? Cold ass dry snowy winter days. Bug free heaven.

Are you the ob/gyn that recommends pregnant people to swap chocolate for broccoli?

Well if you are talking about the end of the first season this wasn’t like she wanted them to die. They all, step by step, without her consent, sacrificed themselves because they knew she was the most powerful and had to go on to have a shot at defeating the dark moon kingdom. If I recall correctly she also dies at the end, and they are all resurrected with amnesia.

I’ve been out during school nights. I’ve never been out during work nights. Being hungover and overtired at school vs being hungover and overtired at work are two vastly different things. I have the energy to sit in class and not listen 100%, but pretending I am fine at work and actually do work that I am required to do? That’s a whole other difficulty level.

Oh God that took me way too long

I enjoyed that a lot. Thanks

Feel free to add more

I wanna see them bible shitposts

I understand doubting the white but seeing black in that gold was what I could never buy. To me it seemed like light blue-grey with matte gold.

In another screenshot I once read “my retirement plan is to die in the socialist revolution” and I think that’s exactly what I hope for

Probably from every day since the internet was born. That’s what Merz says every single day, no ifs and buts on that.

There is a documentary about the “it started out with a wank because I broke my arm” guy??

especially a nonfiction book

I’d argue this is at least as relevant for fiction books. Most books that are considered “good” or “masterpieces” haven’t earned that from the story but from how it is told, from the language used, the writing style, how a greater picture is painted. Any German student who had to go through the pains of reading a Thomas Mann novel will know what I am talking about, that dude could have written a 150 page book with 90 sentences. Of course you can read an analysis of symbolism and style characteristics used and the plot summary, but it isn’t the same as reading the novel, as the story will not grasp you in the same way. It’s not about the content, it’s about its presentation. (In the case of Thomas Mann the pain is a vital part of the presentation.)

I know that I need to migrate, nevertheless thank you for making sure I know. What I meant with

How this matters

Is that honestly I don’t see how I am connected to the instance to begin with. I’m trying to find a comparison that expresses what I feel but I fail to find a good one. Like a browser choice? No, there are differences in using firefox vs chrome. Like an email provider? Nah, also a huge difference. Like a remote control? I have come across weirdly designed remote controls though.

But the instance - I have no connection to it whatsoever. It is just a random thing that provides me access to (all instances of) lemmy. I’m not sure I could care less about it.

Maybe the closest I can come up with is the difference between a gmail.account ending in .com or in .de .

But again, maybe I am missing something important here. I’m really tech illiterate and it is not the area I have an innate grasp at. (I used to drop that I have no idea what a router is, how tf the internet works (there are cables at the bottom of the ocean?!) or how code is even doing stuff. The problem is that I always end up with an inbox of people thinking they will be the one to make me understand.)

I’m an absolute noob when it comes to tech and I don’t even know what instance I am on and how this matters to be honest.

That was part of a joke at the start of an episode. Everyone complained that their boss didn’t like them and Joey (working at the Central Perk at that time iirc) pointed out “yeah I wonder why none of your bosses like you. Maybe it’s because it’s Wednesday 12 pm and you are hanging out at a cafe”.

I thought it’s first time mom on r/babybumps and now I am very confused

Pasta doesn’t lose the majority of its vitamins to its cooking water though. (Mostly because pasta doesn’t have many vitamins to begin with)

That’s beautifully written and very to the point. I wish you well in your search for a partner who takes you as you are and, equally important, who you like as they are.

But if you feel comfortable, why is it problematic?
