Gloomy

It’s how the law is in my country (Germany) and I wouldn’t know of any loopholes here.

If you win something in a lottery or a quiz show here, as long as it’s not job related, you don’t have to pay taxes on it. If you win a million you get a million. But if you put that million into a bank or invest it in any way, you have to pay taxes on the money you earn trough that.

Or, and this is a wild one, or the law could give a devinition of “price” that doesn’t open it up for abuse while not taking from people who won something.

The last time was a sofa and a love seat. We were stuck with the most uncomfortable furniture I’ve ever had in my life.

Oh no. They realy gave you an uncomfortable sofa? Bummer. At least you got a nice love seat out of it.

Kann ich bestätigen. Ein Restaurant mit zwei Hochstühlen zu finden ist die Pest in Deutschland.

Nirgendwo ist die Qualität des Essens schlechter, der Service unfreundlicher, das Kartenlesegerät kaputter und das Durchschnittsalter der Gäste höher als in Deutschland.

Ich bin neidisch darauf das du die Restaurants mit Kartenlesegerät gefunden hast.

Gothic was one of the games of my youth. I am realy looking forward to the remake, thanka for bringing it up.

Recently I have been playing Valheim with my wife again. After a year of more or less non stop caring for the twins we have finally arrived at the point were we can game again together and it makes for even shorter nights but is such a treat to have that back. We used to game and hike a lot together before the children were there. Looking forward to go on long hikes again too, but for now a shared boat ride into the mistlands will do just fine.

My first thought seeing this news headline without reading the article under it was […]

Ftfy

Please add /s to sarcastic statements.

The article feels like an AI summary to me.

Let me try to engage with the last point rationally.

Yes, of course, Vegans take supplements. At least B12 is a required.

I personally don’t think that makes it a “bad” diet.

From my perspective, it is the morally correct way of living, for many reasons, one of them beeing that it causes the least amount of suffering for sentient beeing.

The point you are making (and correct me if I am wrong) is that taking supplements means it’s not a natural way of eating, hence the need for supplements.

I agree. It is not.

But there are plenty of things that are natural for us, but we have decided that they are morally bad and hence should not be practiced. Violence, for example, is so natural in humans that even after thousands of years of civilisation we still require laws to regulate or punish it, alongside “outlets” for our violence (like Marital Arts or Video Games). I am sure you can think of other things that are natural to humans, but are considered immoral.

Eating animals is, in my opinion, just the next step in that line. It’s something that was needed once but is not any longer, at least for the vast majority of people (as you hinted at in the first half of your comment).

Just in case anybody has an hour to spare, this is a YouTube video summarising all 14 parts. I have no idea why I watched this, tbh. I never even heared of the damn movies. I guess sometime it’s three a clock and these things just happen.

If the image of the dead deer didn’t fuck you over, the article links to a far worse thing:

A YouTube video of a person having 150 of them removed surgecally from their nose.

Didn’t you know that consumerism is not conservatism? No? Neither did I, but the good people of r/conservative think so all of the sudden. Somehow.

So these are people living in Canada that are imprisoned at the border to the US, even tough they have no intention of entering?

Like, wtf?!

Not American. What border is this? Are they accidentally attempting to leave the US for Canada due to a wrong turn and are snatched up? Can’t they turn around before they reach the border?

Na, it’s been like this in Trump 1. It’s because they realy do not give a fuck about humans, even the ones on their side. They are just pawns to be used and disregarded at will.

I realy want to belive this to be true, but I have to ask for a source on this one.
