But people get paid per hour?

Min wage, of course, like any other entry job. Not that I think it’s “enough” or that they’re properly compensated for their contribution, because the profit is almost always split amongst those who have never worked for it, but in Western Europe it’s a “livable wage”, IME. For instance, you can rent a studio apartment in the center of Marseille for about 500 euro, and min wage is like 1400 for 35h/week. With the “prime d’activité”, which is some money the government can give you for having a job, you can get an extra 250-100 euro. It’s manageable (without kids ofc)

They’re not spineless, or at least that’s not the issue here, they’re amoral, sociopathic scammers. They all know what they’re doing and they love it! And they’re giggling all the way to the bank.

The amoral West has to cannibalize itself if it cannot feed on the rest of world as easily, and it won’t be long until we’re back in the “white on white wars” days. Ofc, everyone else will suffer but that’s just life, I guess.

Only because I’d expect it to be, idk, spooky in whatever way (I don’t believe in/understand hauntings) so it would be kind of exciting, but then if it were not I could not even complain because, after all, it was advertised as “not haunted”. 😔

Hehehe 🫶

Yeah, that’s why the West, spearheaded as usual by the US, sorta colonized Ukraine and made it their new FOB against Russia, because both governments are in bed with each other, lol. If you’re saying that Russia also uses disinfo, propaganda and social media for their own goals, sure, but they’re not the same and they’re certainly not as damaging (Nazi/white supremacy apology/Zionism is Western stuff, for example).

“I’ve heard enough, nuke Cuba!” -unironic take many Americans have had throughout the past decades

Extremely, I don’t even waste time complaining about things (usually, lol) that can’t be changed because that’s time I could spend enjoying other parts of life! I have clothes mostly just so I’m not naked outside, and I’ve only actually put any thought into it when it comes to my work clothes (I kinda miss the days I could wear the same thing every day because I was in the army and it was mandatory, why don’t we have uniforms as civilians?!). I don’t even argue with people IRL: I say something as nicely as possible to allow the person to accept what I’m saying, and if they don’t seem to get it I just state things plainly (“this is what I’m gonna do, this is what you can or cannot do regarding this, this is what I can offer to compensate if it makes you feel better, and such is life”). I only have, uhh, friendly and purely intellectual arguments with my fellow lemmings! 😅

As a married man to a very girly girl, this makes me basically an alien to my wife, being on the opposite end of this (and other) spectrums. She often jokes that she “found” me in the woods or “rescued” me, and since I often wear things until the holes are larger than the fabric and drink water straight from the tap no glass, she might have a point! She’s also the only one who I actually argue with, for obvious reasons. 😬

My bad, I made the appropriate correction. I meant that, even for those outside of .ml, that should be obvious enough (remember the “did you even say thanks” little act with Zelensky?). 👍

“Stay the hell away from pizza and croissants even if you spent half your life in Southern Europe, dough doesn’t agree with you!” 😭

I mean, yeah, Ukraine is an American colony. I don’t understand how this could shock someone, even outside of .ml, lol.🤷‍♂️

The European invader will never stop, for whatever reason. I wonder what goes on in their brains that at no point is the hellish immorality of their actions questioned. Like, if I were in their shoes and had a moment of sanity, I’d end my life or go full “isolated monk in the woods carrying the heaviest guilt ever” (and the second option just feels selfish, definitely better to end your life but do something good with it like taking some of these folks out with you).

I’m sorry, OP, but that’s just life, what can I tell you. 😔 I’m sure the right person won’t care either way. Also, that bit about vaginas is way off, no neurotypical man is actually thinking about “tightness” like that, it doesn’t even cross one’s mind (and how would one even measure it in advance, are there signs? 🤔).

And he’s just a disembodied string of characters forever stuck on Lemmy? I guess it’s better than Hell. 🥲

Women are not as reckless, less confrontational and more socially conscious (if not due to morals, at least because of the fear of being ostracized). Also, they’re generally incapable of engaging in violent crime competently, for obvious biological reasons, so I guess they also have less motivation to try if it ever crosses their minds.

He did make it all, and thank God for even a second of life.

Cultural tell, IMO.

Nah, my wife will have to handle my loss, God willing. I’ve seen how grandmas and grandpas react to the passing of their better halves, women seem to handle it better. 🤷‍♂️

I didn’t know God drove cars but I’m glad you learnt something useful from such a horrible experience.
