It’ll be a software as a service subscription-based racket, possibly with micro transactions

Oh you want blue skies? There’s a VR-based software solution for that

Blue skies? A sacrifice this guy and his friends in tech are apparently willing to make -, for all of us

It kinda funny how the German is already heavily loaded and trying to make it a bad thing, but the English translation is reducing any amount of nuance the original text still had left in it, painting it as this devil institution brainwashing young people into becoming soulless borg commies.

for example, the original last sentence reads like this, faithfully translated: “Socialist morals and a positive attitude to life in a community were more important learning goals than the development of individual skills.”

Here’s the whole thing, trying to be as faithful and transliteral as I can be to the original:
Kindergarten served not only for childcare, it was also the first educational institution, anyone born in the GDR would visit. Obviously, because of this, state leadership had an interest in providing wide coverage: places at a Kindergarten were available for way more than 90 percent of children. The daily schedule was precisely planned and applicable to everyone: they would play together, eat together and have naps together - under instruction [you could read this as “guidance” too, but the tone of the original is very clearly already trying to make the supervision part of childcare into an evil commie thing, so yea]. Socialist morals and a positive attitude to life in a community were more important learning goals than the development of individual skills.

Merry Hexmas everyone!

some days you’re the robot, some days you’re the dog,

and other times you just happen to be a raccoon with a surplus ghetto blaster

I liked it as well, go watch it

you can fit way more stairs this way

o_O

Last of Us was good
Halo is generally pretty well received, though I felt it was sorta mid (but enjoyable enough, I guess)

this just reminded me, amazon is still doing that Disco Elysium show I believe

I definitely wouldn’t recommend smoking in that case, but vaping you could try if you make sure the vape is not getting too hot. If you do vaping right it’s basically warm, spicy mist - still may make you cough, but could be manageable if you’re careful. The effect is a lot more immediate from vaping, is the only reason I’d at least consider it in your case. You can also try ingesting it orally for a slower uptake, though I’m not sure what a good dosage or way would be for you. Can’t really OD on CBD though, so don’t stress it too much. If you go that way just beware, there are a lot of snakeoil products out there with CBD. I’d try going for a basic oil extract from a reputable vendor that ideally also sells whole flower, that should give you a pure, reliable, versatile solution for oral ingestion. You could put it on food or even bake with it (I think), take it any way you would ingest oil. Alternatively, you can solve it in alcohol, but I don’t think that’s a great idea for your use case.

There’s probably also CBD in pill form some way or other, I’m sure

have you heard of medical marijuana

could probably unironically help you reduce your dosage but don’t expect miracles obviously. Try vaping some herb, maybe it helps. If you don’t wanna get high, try pure CBD strains.

lemons are great for this. You don’t need all of it, just the skin. press the lemon and enjoy the juice, put the skins on the glass rack and you’ll have a fresh lemon flavor when opening the door. needs replacing every other wash or so (they get hard and stop smelling)

hoplophobia

talk about medicalizing/pathologizing your political enemies

In 1997, Cooper wrote that he coined the term hoplophobia in 1962 “in response to a perceived need for a word to describe a mental aberration consisting of an unreasoning terror of gadgetry, specifically, weapons.”

In 1991, Cooper wrote in Guns & Ammo magazine that “no more than five to ten people in a hundred who die by gunfire in Los Angeles are any loss to society. These people fight small wars amongst themselves. It would seem a valid social service to keep them well-supplied with ammunition.” In 1994, Cooper said “Los Angeles and Ho Chi Minh City have declared themselves sister cities. It makes sense: they are both Third World metropolises formerly occupied by Americans.”

you just gotta take the whole lane bro, take space like a car

then abolish roosters as well

You could try a medium-sized fish, like herring. It’s often canned in some kind of tomato-sauce and it generally breaks up more due to the size of it. No skin or bones. If you like tuna, this could be right up your alley.
Generally, I’d also advise to have some good bread with it or some crackers or something like that. You could also try it with rice, I think.

Yes, they do.

(Desk meaning the table my surfing machine rests on. I have never consumed canned fish at the workplace. The NAFC stands for and promotes a responsible use of canned fish.)

high in sodium

you’re thinking of anchovies, I think. There’s less than a gram of salt in the 100g sardines sitting in front of me rn

high in saturated fats

again, from the sardines on my desk: 17,3g of fat per 100g; only 3,5g of those are saturated. Idk if that’s high to you, but it doesn’t seem to be to me

bpa, pcbs

like all canned foods, yea. High, also is relative here, though I can’t really find reliable numbers rn. If you know more, please share

mercury

not really, I think you’re thinking of tuna? Sardines are a very small fish near the bottom of the food network, feeding on krill - there isn’t really much bio-accumulation going on here, compared to bigger fish. There’s some mercury in them for sure, but you’d have to eat a lot of sardines to get to dangerous levels

This post has been paid for by the North Atlantic Fishery Council, I hope you have enjoyed this social media content and will consider consuming 100 - 400g of canned sardines per day.

Also just wanna say, it’s not very nice of you to be calling me an idiot when I even went out of my way to provide a CW for vegan sensibilities. I did find your post in response pretty funny though. Also also, I am eating those beans as well, don’t you worry.

pretty sure this is a direct response to my positive comment about sardines a few days ago. Even got a reply from OP there, calling me an idiot
