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

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

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…

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…

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

I think in the case of PFAS it’s very reasonable. There’s no real harm done in avoiding them except possibly making less money and having to figure out other ways to do certain things - which cannot even be compared to the the potential danger they pose to the whole ecosphere

PFAS is a chemical

PFAS is the term for the whole group of the stuffs called “forever chemicals” (for a reason). There’s not just a single one, but multiple, and as the specific ones and groups get banned, the industries move to use different ones, basically. It’s important to buy “PFAS free” stuff, any other labels like “PFOA free” can still mean there’s PFASs there, there’s just not ones from the specific variation

Yeah, I can understand being illiterate in something with a very complex writing systems (like chinese), but english has no excuses. Every language that’s standardized will have their own problems as fluidity of language and strict systems don’t exactly work that well together, but what english has going on would be so simple to improve even with just slight changes!

Masha Bell has analyzed 7000 common words and found that about 1/2 cause spelling and pronunciation difficulties and about 1/3 cause decoding difficulties. (from wikipedia)

Oh killing c would be a good start, since it’s basically entirely replaceable with k and s. I wouldn’t go as far as opposing all tradition though, since there’s no reason to fiddle with traditional letter systems if they still fulfill their purpose well enough. Like sure, for example japanese could be a lot easier with eliminating kanji, but there’s significant cultural background and meaning in those that’s worth preserving - and everything can still be written phonetically when needed anyway.

English alphabet on the other hand does not have such meaningful tradition in it that couldn’t be preserved with just at least tweaking the usage a bit to be more phonetic, as now it’s already become basically half-way gibberish (fish vs. ghoti). I don’t know french well enough to shame it as harshly, but it’s writing system could definitely improve with a bit of nuking too

The whole english writing system should just be nuked and started over from a phonetic alphabet, and same for any language that has a written form that’s stuck so far behind in history it barely has any connections left to how it is written. It’s insane to constantly waste so much time, effort and resources because the language has naturally evolved so far from the version the writing system still clings to

There’s always the old classic video of a finnish man cursing at a bear, which has a good example of how a proper perkele is said

I’m in Finland and swedish is our second official language. I’ve heard groups of fennoswede teenagers all speak swedish to each other, except they will throw in properly pronounced finnish curse words (like vittu and perkele). I guess they just are more powerful
