That IP address is coming from inside the house!

Rude

Oh, so now it’s important when someone gets killed over there

The fact that there are 433 data points means it’s not working

If someone ironically pays me $8000, I’m still $8000 richer

Americans are insane. I don’t want to stereotype, but who the fuck needs a burger the size of a car?

In the UK we had to memorise up to 20 (Calcium), but that was alongside knowing how the elements are grouped and orbits of electrons etc. for GCSE chemistry (age 14-16, end of secondary school)

I honestly didn’t know albatrosses use fishing rods. I kinda thought you just five into the water and use your beak. TIL!

Have I understood correctly?

Well, there’s no way he’s going to lose gracefully

(I know that’s not how you meant it)

The ocean is a lot closer though, which helps

Haven’t had a chance to read it yet, but this popped up on Lemmy recently.

You might not change the weather, but you can increase biodiversity which is still good. And you can also lower the temperature by introducing trees

I much prefer cannabis growers to landlords who have empty buildings, destroying high streets but still refusing to lower rents.

(Also, fuck landlords in general :) )

You’re missing the point. For some people, it’s not faking it

As long as it’s from supermarkets 😀

Those 0.85% that didn’t vote for Kagame are gonna be in trouble

Ouch

Just want to highlight something you said because it’s something I see people tripping up over a lot in my own life.

As long as you two are having a good time, the rest really doesn’t matter as much as you think it does.

Keep in mind that your goal isn’t “experience grey and dismal weather”, “eat a very large burger”, “get killed by a venomous animal” (depending on which country you visit), but your goal is actually “my gf and I should have fun”. If things don’t go to plan but you still had fun, guess what? Things did actually go to plan!

EDIT: but also, if following your itinerary is stressing you out, then feel free to skip a day and just unwind and relax so you’re energised and ready to enjoy the next day

That’s global warming for you

UN definition of genocide: https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/genocide.shtml

Although you can’t technically genocide trans people because they’re not one of the special groups outlined in the definition, you don’t actually need to kill people to commit a genocide. I would argue that there is “intent to destroy, in whole or in part” trans people by “Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group” and “Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part”. By taking away healthcare and other accommodations, serious harm is caused to trans people. Couple this with the high suicide rates of bullied and marginalised trans people, one could argue that the lawmakers are intending to kill trans people (although I personally wouldn’t go that far)
