There is a nuance between knowing that no revolution was made without arms and “loving guns”… If I ever have to use one, I know I won’t love it.

People forget that not everyone on Lemmy are from the States, because where I am from leftists are usually really anti-gun.

I guess it depends, where I work that’s all I see…

Appart from the fact that they are not in fact roddents, both the german and norwegian names already make more sense than french. We call them “chauve-souris”, so literally “bald mice”.

I knew that I saw that beekeeper painting before. It is used as a cover of a Sunn O))) album.

Funny because I was pondering on the same dilemma with Silksong lately.

I like to try to find stuff and discover things on my own. I love the feeling of going blind in a game and googling stuff often leads to you being spoiled some aspects of the game. However, when I spend 2 hours finding nothing new and reexploring three times the whole map without anything coming up, that’s when I google stuff. Even then though I will keep it as short as possible as to continue the rest on my own.

I think that people like to imagine this opposite dangerous “extreme” to validate that they can have the right to hold their problematic values. But that other extreme is basically a boogeyman. I hear from frienda and family on every subject “oh but we should be careful to not go too far in the other extreme”. As if it was a real threat. Not only because we are so closer to right wing extremism at the moment but also because how can caring about other people can be “too extreme”.

I understand your point because often in a lot of hobbies, when you are a newbie, people can be very condescending to you. But I still think that it’s abnormal the number of people that know nothing about cooking, since, contrary to most hobbies, it is essential for us to eat.

However I think that the real problem is that most people are so overworked and we have so much responsabilities, that it is almost a luxury to take the time to cook in our society. I am pretty sure there would be wayyy more people enjoying cooking if they could take their time doing it.

Honnestly quinoa for me is the best. Plus it makes funny leopard poop.

Interesting, will check it out ! But yeah the streak thing makes me feel the exact same way…

Wow was not expecting such a detailed answer ! Thank you very much !

I’ve completed the spanish course on Duolingo a couple years ago, but I feel like I am still lacking. I would be interested in your suggestions !

Yep, funny how everyone thinks it’s the 22 short stories episode.

Thanks, as a non native english speaker, TIL that I also pronounced it wrong the whole time…

I read so many of his book thinking “at some point I’ll land on one that’ll make me understand what all the fuss is about”. Never happened. As you said, the guy has great concept ideas, but he doesn’t know how to build on them. So many endings are so stupid and far fetched it would be comical if it were a Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure episode…

Sorry for the bad news… still the meme was pretty funny.

I love that MIA song, but it is bittersweet listening to it now that she went full on reborn christian conspirationist MAGA…

The worst was the little closed-eye twitching Cumberbatch was doing when “going” through all this knowledge. It was always kinda there, but season 4 was peak “let’s show him doing that for 10min straight.” It looked so ridiculous…

Did not know there were that many adaptations !
