There’s not gonna be peace until Putin and his ilk hang. If it takes Moscow burning to the ground and the balkanisation of Russia, so be it.

Christmas isn’t Christan at all. It’s all older traditions that the sick Yahweh cult inserted itself into.

Yeah Vivaldi is pretty neat. I use it when I need a Chromium browser. Otherwise I use Zen which is similar.

Went to see Die Hard in the theatre last weekend. I think I had forgotten what a good film actually is. Die Hard largely tells it’s story through acting and camera work, instead of long exposition dumps and voiceover. It was a joy to watch. It’s no wonder I’ve almost stopped seeing new films in the theatre, there all made by morons catering to morons.

It’s actually completely related etymologically. Mandem = Man + Dem (Them). Manden = Man + Den (The). Both use the same Germanic words from two very similar Germanic languages. Mandem would just be plural Manden.

Fresh ground beans, ~93°C water, pour-over or immersion brewed. If the coffee tastes dirty, acrid and bitter, it’s because it was poorly made or it had gone bad. It should be sweat and caramelly or chocolatey.

A lot like how rancid meat is often hidden by added spicy flavourings, bad coffee is hidden by added sweat flavourings.

Ugh. Religious people are fucking trash and should go to heaven as soon as possible. Christmas isn’t even Yahweh-ist. They just inserted themselves into older traditions and stories. Fucking freaks.

Dude, China has literally expanded it’s borders during our lifetime, there are huge populations that speak entirety different languages and have completely different cultures inside their borders. It’s an empire.

Why would a Chinese for-profit corporation differ from any other? Except for the Chinese ones having backing from a garbage authoritarian empire. Maybe they can get free slaves from the state?

Never really had anything to do with Christianity in the first place either. It’s an old Germanic tradition celebrating the winter solstice. When the insane Yahweh cult took control over Europe they inserted themselves into all of our stories and rituals.

I always carry a screwdriver/ratchetdriver with a bunch of bits. Sometimes I fix peoples glasses, other times loose doorhandles. Also a small prybar sharp enough to replace a knife in most scenarios.

Good man. Too bad China kills good people. It’s a horrible empire.

Conquering territory, genocide. You know, coloniser stuff.

A vote for EU right wing parties in the coming elections is a vote for Putin.

Americans can’t comprehend scaling infrastructure, or the diverse make up of Europes population.

Chinese people can’t behave themselves as usual. Taiwan is a much more civilised country.

After working with high school kids for a while I can tell you that the climate and social justice talk is mostly performative. Also way rapey-er than I remember us being in the early 00s.

Some of the dumbest people I know are very successful. It’s apparently very profitable to not think things through, boast about your own excellence, and ignore how your actions affect others.

I don’t get what Hungarians see in this dude. Bloated, weak and stupid isn’t usually what people look for in a leader.

I mean sure my cooking is better than most restaurants. Maybe they should go out of business. I very rarely tip. I pay the price that you put on the menu. That’s the deal.
