“Courage means being scared but doing it anyway” seems like a pretty succinct way of putting it I think.

My wierd compliment (if it can be called that) was when I was in high school English class. My teacher noticed how competent I was and how I was the only one to consistently raise my hand when he asked a question. He gave us a research paper to do and I got an F on it, exclusively because I fucked up the citations. He said the content was good, but he had to mark me way down due to improper citing. He said “I know you can do better than this.”

Is that a complement? Either way, I think about that interaction and scenario a lot even though I haven’t been in high school for well over a decade.

Something like this

You don’t have to confirm or deny, but it sounds like you work for the navy.

Would you say that common sense changes with the generations? What was once common is no longer, and what was uncommon becomes common?

I can’t remember the brand, but the packaging looked like human food except for a very small piece of text in the corner that mentions its dog food.

It tasted like it just needed a little bit of salt or maybe ketchup, but was otherwise pretty good.

I’ve also knowingly had wet and dry dog food since then, just because i already took the plunge accidentally so how bad could it be?

Again, I can’t remember the brands, but dry dog food is alright if you’ve literally nothing else. I’m sure some seasoning would help. I would recommend wet dog food though only because it’s easier to season. Tastes mostly how it smells, just blander.

Cubans have the antonym to that:

Aserlo como los blancos “Do it like white people”

Do it properly 😜

“Can’t see the forest through the trees” is also an English idiom meaning the same thing

Little of column A, little of column B

If you like video essays and video games, I can suggest The Tarnished Archeologist. He does deep lore dives into FromSoft games (Dark Souls, Elden Ring, etc.) using real world archeological techniques and insights, and draws parallels with real world civilizations.

Even if you aren’t into FromSoft games, his videos are worth it for the real world archeological parallels alone.

Full speed ahead, tell her how you feel. It can only end in two ways:

1. Your dream becomes a premonition and you live happily ever after.

2. She tells you she doesn’t feel the same way and it ends there, awkwardly or not.

Speaking from experience. I had a crush on this one girl and I just couldn’t get her out of my mind. I decided to do something about it and asked her out. She said no and that was the end of it.

Don’t be afraid to be awkward.

Edit: If this truly is an impossible situation (you or the instructor are already in committed relationships) then I agree with everyone else telling you to find another instructor.

OR

Still do what I said but try to reconcile your feelings for her, with her. Also speaking from experience here. If she is a dance instructor, she is probably no stranger to having her pupils develop feelings for her.

From what I understand, German people are very serious and value efficiency in the workplace above all else. Or so the common stereotype goes anyway.

Can I get the long version of this short story?

I didn’t have sex with a girl I had a crush on for the longest time.

It didn’t matter a bit in the long run, but it would have been nice.

And I say that the current encabulation speeds are not more than adequate enough!

We do, I just don’t know how to link to communities in lemmy.

Edit: Did this do anything?

What’s up with DeviantArt?

In the Hall of the Mountain King

Yeah, well I stubbed my toe last week while watering my spice garden, and I only cried for 20 minutes.

Grandpa Suckem. I forget why.

Edit: I remember now. Fromsoft games are a little heavy handed with the online name censorship, and there was a streamer my fiance and I watch that was playing with someone who’s name was heavily censored. One of the suggested names from the streamers was “Grandpa Suckem” and my fiance and I found it hilarious.
