Germany sure loves them genocides. It seems they are always on the side of one.

Yes, I’d also light myself up on fire if I had to endure his company.

I’m about 500 meters from the place where the hospital I was born stood (the building still exists, but it’s something else now).

I grew up in this city since my parents moved here before I was born. I also lived here half of my adult life and I’m thinking of leaving.

I have no emotional connection with this city. My family is from a different region of the country and we have a very different culture. My heart is with my parents hometown and I always identify myself with the region autonym.

Is that tariff in this room with us?

Saying the IDF are murderers is not antisemitism it’s the truth. Equating the IDF with all Jews is antisemitism. So who’s the antisemite here?

If it doesn’t require immediate attention I call my health center. I can get an appointment with my family pshysician in a few days or, if it’s more urgent, some other doctor will see me the same day but I’ll have to wait there until one is free (can go anywhere between 15mn and 2 hours). I’m lucky though, some health centers suck really bad. The ones in big cities are generally better.

If it’s more urgent I call the national health line and they’ll A: tell me how to treat it myself B: set up an appointment in my health center (or another if mine is not available) C: send me straight to the closest emergency room.

Wait times in the emergency room depend on the gravity and the hospital. My hospital sucks. Low priority you’ll spend there the whole day, easy. 10+ hours. Medium priority you’ll wait 4 or 5 hours. High priority about an hour, maybe two. Very high priority (head falling off) you go right in. In good hospitals those times are much lower. In the major city I used to live I never waited more than 2 hours for any priority. I also had surgery there and it was great.

Never paid a cent, I think it goes without saying.

I hear you. I have 3 machines: my main rig, a light laptop and a server. The main rig is on Windows 10 LTSC and the server is on Linux (goes without saying).

When I bought the laptop I decided to use it only with Linux as a way to squeeze it’s resources but also as a way to figure it how realistic it would be to use Linux exclusively. After starting on Mint and hopping to Arch I ended up on Debian and I’m quite satisfied with it. But I also realized it would never work on my main rig. Lots of stuff and software would just not work the same way. Would it be usable, yes. But it would be mostly workarounds instead of the perfect setup I have built.

Linux will definitely get there. It’s improving fast. But telling people that don’t know better to just switch only to find out half of what they did will now have to be done with workarounds and hassles is dishonest and does not help Linux at all. When Linux is perfect those people will already be burned and resist it needlessly.

I had sex with a girl way out of my league. Usually I fuck down.

America: Come on, you’re pulling that one out of nowhere. That can’t be the reason, we bomb people all the time!

No problem, how much is “everything” in USD?

This is legit because he has a moustache.

Dude, she’s the one coming on in YOUR dreams uninvited. She’s the one obsessing!

Calling it…Trump declares California to be in rebellion and suspends their votes in the electoral college and congress in the next elections.

He was dead the moment he got caught. Nevermind guilty. I don’t care how many technicalities or strategies his lawyer might have. There’s no way in hell the powers that be will let him have anything other than being made a harsh example for all of us plebs.

This isn’t about him commiting the crime of murder. This about scaring us into submission so we don’t get any ideas. Even if he’s actually innocent because of they don’t catch the killer they can’t use it as an example, so they need someone.

He’s not walking. Get ready for the inevitable. Even if the word of the law is on his side they’ll pull something last moment. It’s really naive to think they’d ever allow themselves being made a joke by us.

Timex TC2068. It’s a Portuguese revision of the Timex TS2068 which is itself a bad ZX Spectrum clone.

Last Action Hero. I know the editing is pretty bad and the rhythm is a bit messed up in the last part but it’s the most meta movie ever and an homage/parody to classic action movies. Having Arnold play the main part is the cherry on top.

I never thought of wanking. I could stay away from video games, no problem. Browsing would stay at a minimum. But wanking…I’d do it every time I’d become just a bit stressed. 10/10 would hurt myself.

Look, I’m glad you took that off your chest. My point still remains and I won’t be shamed into silence. And no, it’s not your fault or any gender in particular. Hell, it is a problem of toxic masculinity, and both women and men are to blame.

I’m glad you care and please, keep caring. It does make a difference. Mentalities change one person at a time.

You talk about men “choosing” unhealthy ways to deal with pain and grief. I’m sorry, but you have no idea what it is to be a man. Your intentions may be good but you can never truly understand how lonely male existence is because you haven’t experienced it. Same way I can never truly understand what it is being put down and condescended for being a woman, among other things. I see it, and it troubles me, but I never experienced it. I’m not arrogant to pretend I know how it feels.

This is my experience being a man. When you fall apart and become vulnerable everybody runs. Repulse is the right word. You can feel the contempt when you show that weakness. Both in men and women. This isn’t a men versus women thing. I’m not talking about SO’s running away when we’re weak. While it does happen, in my experience a SO is one of the few people you can actually show vulnerability. That, family and, if you’re lucky, a few close friends. Beyond that, our society simply isn’t wired to accept weakness on a man. It’s not men’s fault, it’s not women’s fault, it’s the culture itself.

Can it be fixed? I don’t know. Either way, I feel frustrated by it and it’s my right to voice that frustration.
