14·16 days agoUsually these TIL threads give me nothing new.
This one is new to me. Thanks.
Wait you mean that in capitalism, the people with a lot of capital have it easier?
Almost as if the more of it you have, the easier it is to make more of it, but if you have none, then you’re shit out of luck and have to agree to be someone’s slave.
1·1 month agoWith the golden hour hitting that tower, this is just the sort of photo AI’s love to train on.
I assumed it was AI at first glance.
One would assume.
I’m sure someone’s gone and checked in the hundreds of years it’s been there.
You’d be surpised at some of the foods which contain gluten. Take a vegetarian pizza, with some seitan on it? That’s pure gluten.
And the nature of celiacs or non-celiac gluten sensitivity is such — annoyingly, that the symptoms take a while to show up, so it’s unlike say a proper food allergy or lactose intolerance, it’s much harder to actually reason about what you’ve eaten, when the symptoms can show up as late as several days afterwards.
But yeah, ofc that’s not everyone and if it’s not you it’s not you. It just was for me, and now I’m kinda preachy about people trying exclusion diets just to be sure.
A proper cleaning should do it. Make sure all the air holes are clean.
Have you ever tried avoiding gluten for a while?
I get horrible hangovers from having a few light beers, but once I starred avoiding gluten and dairy, I could drink a 3l box of wine in one or two sittings and not have a hangover in between.
Never used to be able to enjoy properly tannined wines. But with the proper diet, I fking love them.
“The excess”
Yeah no such thing.
Imagine actually asking women if they prefer to have their clitoral hood intact or not.
It’s biologically analogous, it’s the prepuce. Without it, your most sensitive part is constantly exposed to air and friction. Imagine what an eye would look like in 15 years if you were to cut someone’s eyelid off. It would dry and lose vision and just be overall horrible. The glans penis is mucosal as well, so there’d be similarities like keratinisation.
Have I ever wished someone had genitally mutilated me as a baby?
Phone left, keys right, wallet back or right.
Usually when I go outside I have a jacket so jacket pockets, left/right but same applies for trousers.
Wallet for backpacket only on comfortable places.
Well this is kinda easy to understand even as a westerner; you probably consider a gray/flecked pigeon as a something more or less dirty, but a white dove is the sign of purity and whatnot.
Exactly the same animal, just different colouring.
Somehow we just think eating French fries off the ground makes pigeons dirty but doves eating insects is completely fine.
“Have you ever sown a field, Lady Olenna? Have you ever reaped a grain? Has anyone in House Tyrell? A lifetime of wealth and power has left you blind in one eye. You are the few, we are the many. And when the many stop fearing the few…”
From your point of view. Your point of view may be the objectively correct one, and I would love if just saying “no more crazy people” meant no more fighting with people who have way too much confidence and zero rationality, but they still might have their own points of view.
And I for one can’t say which is the objectively right one.
For instance I find that my personal preference to abiding Grice’s maxims would be way too detail-oriented, and people usually feel as though I’ve broken the maxim of quantity and quality by “over-serving them” whereas I feel they’re not nearly accurate enough. Or they’re too accurate about something way too irrelevant and I’m very confident in the matter and thus find the quantity of their explanation superfluous.
It’s so much about context and less about what is “objectively right.”
I used to drive a taxi and would have no problem letting other people “set the rules” as it were (people really enjoyed me as a customer service agent in all different jobs I was in, and I’m not just saying that even though ofc everyone would think so becuase I’m saying it myself), but yet I don’t have lots of close personal friends, because I get to actually talk about what’s interesting to me and not just yap about some irrelevant bullshit, people have a different preference to how much they like talking and thinking about things. Mines “more than theirs”. I can accommodate their rules, but they clearly can’t accommodate mine. So it would only make sense for me, the more adaptable one, to adapt, as they’re clearly incapable. Unless I want to be alone.
Would you disagree?
Sometimes we disagree on what the required amount of information that is needed for a sentence.

And sometimes we’re playing the wrong “game”
There’s a reason you dislike it so, I wager
It’s not that deep." – dismisses attempts to expose faulty logic by asserting that logic is not necessary in this particular case.[8]
“Lies of the Devil.” – used as a response to any fact that threatens the integrity of an individual or group.[9] “Stop thinking too much.” – redirects attention from the topic, idea, or argument at hand to the alleged overuse of thought itself.[10]
“You clearly care way too much about this topic.” – implies that one’s level of concern or interest in a particular topic or situation is excessive and thus invalidates any further conversation or exploration[2]
“There are worse things in life to worry about.” – implies that less significant issues are not worth addressing since they are not as significant as other issues and implies that a person’s situation is not significant enough to even warrant discussion or action[11]
“It’s all good.” – nullifies, without evidence, any possible debate by asserting the issue is already settled.[12][user-generated source?]
“Here we go again.” – implies that the redundant, cyclical nature of a given disagreement means it will never be resolved.[13]
“So what? What effect does my action have?” – used to dismiss an individual’s involvement in a larger cause on the grounds that one person is too insignificant to ever have a meaningful impact.[2]
“Let’s agree to disagree.” – used to stop discussion of an issue rather than attempt to resolve it;[14] may, however, instantiate a dialectic.
“It is what it is.” – implies that things are unchangeable, therefore there is no point in further discussion.[15]
“Let people enjoy things.” – purports that criticisms to consumable media are attempts to prevent consumers from enjoying said media.[
You’re in the UAE and your uncomfortable with people being obscenely wealthy to a disgusting degree?
Financially it probably means less to that boy and their family than a pack of tobacco does for me.
Hey.
I honestly don’t know whether this would be a good idea, or a bad one, but that’s up to you;
What if… what if… you talked about your gf about a professional photographer? I know it could sound way more daunting to someone with body dysmorphia, but also, sometimes photographers are really good at handling shy subjects and being extra good at making people’s comfortable. And to do it, she could take a bit of Dutch Courage or something idk an anti-anxiety pill, perhaps.
The point being that professional photos might make her see her body as more sexy as she usually looks at it in a mirror and not through professional photography.
Also it would mean you’d be able to make larger and larger prints as your vision degenerates. And even if she didn’t want to look at them, or feel like getting naked at some point, maybe she’d still subconsciously realise that you really do think she’s beautiful as you keep going back to browse the photos and have a quick wank lol.
Anyways, just a thought.
Well, Finnish game dev apparently topped the list of wealthiest companies a few years ago. Which is kind of funny with national gambling government monopoly.
How is it “funny”?
There’s a world of difference with those three small added letters in the word “mbl”.
Gaming and gambling are nowhere near the same, no matter how much RAY has made their fruit machines resemble games.
Finnish Army Simulator and it’s more of a humouristic game afaik.
Max Payne is Finnish. So is Alan Wake. Unsure about how Finnish the sequels are, but at least these are in a different class than the sort of indie/small games you list.
I just played for the first time ever.
Realistic af. Even got the older wounds bleeding
