- Comment on "I was born in the wrong generation" has turned from edgy to a sad reality for some 1 week ago:
There are some aspects of life that make me wish I was born at a different time than I was, and other things I like now that I wouldn’t want to do without. I don’t think it’s as black and white if an issue as this makes it seem.

- Comment on Absolutely true! 1 week ago:
I’m not particularly bitter about it, it’s just a fact of life at the moment. What I do take exception to though are people who like to condescendingly suggest that all life’s problems could be solved by just heading to the Caribbean or Europe for a few weeks. If I could afford to just pick up and go wherever whenever I felt like it then most of my issues would already be resolved lol

Cool. Is this your way of telling me that you’re going to pay for me to go traveling? That would be great, thanks 👍
- Comment on What are people from Moscow and Versailles called? 2 weeks ago:
Maybe I’m missing some context here but I would probably just say “Russian” or “French” 🤷♂️
- Comment on How would I describe myself? 2 weeks ago:
I’d say it’s really up to you at this point. In your own head do you think of yourself as a French person or Chilean or Brazilian? What does your internal monologue sound like to you? Which of these cultures do you mostly identify with? Which history do you feel is your own?
At the end of the day is a specific label something you actually want, or is it something you think you need to show to other people?
- Comment on Artichokes got their names bc the first person to try one choked on the choke 3 weeks ago:
From Wikipedia:
The English word artichoke was borrowed in the sixteenth century from the northern Italian word articiocco (the standard modern Italian being carciofo). The Italian term was itself borrowed either from Spanish alcarchofa (today usually alcachofa) or directly from the source of the Spanish word—medieval Andalusi Arabic الخرشوفة (al-kharshūfa, including the Arabic definite article al). The Arabic form kharshūfa is still used in Maghrebi Arabic today, while other variants in Arabic include kharshafa, and Modern Standard Arabic khurshūfa. These Arabic forms themselves derive from classical Arabic حرشفة (harshafa) singular word of the plural حراشف (ḥarashef) meaning “scale”. Other languages which derive their word for the artichoke from Arabic include Israeli Hebrew, which has the word חֻרְשָׁף (khursháf). The original Hebrew name (see Hebrew: he:ארטישוק) is קינרס kinars, which is found in the Mishna.

- Comment on Should artist be allowed to use AI vocals if producers don't play actually Instruments? 4 weeks ago:
Any song fully created by AI should be required to be labeled as such. Like in the writing credits it should say “all instruments and vocals created by AI, no actual artists were involved in any part of its production”
It should also be noted in the songs title so no one listens to it by accident
A song fully created by AI has no artistic merit and exists solely to generate income for someone with no actual musical ability.

- Comment on Reddit adds new tools, including Post Insights and Rules Check, which lets users see if what they are posting potentially goes against a subreddit's rules and will suggest communities for your post. 1 month ago:
This sounds like just another way for Reddit’s corporate overlords to control the flow of information disguised as a helpful tool.
I’m so glad I left that disgusting cesspool

- Comment on Why is lying on the floor more entertaining than lying on a bed? 1 month ago:
Is laying in the middle of a kitchen floor really entertaining though? It’s certainly unexpected I guess but it’s not blowing my mind or anything
- Comment on Why is lying on the floor more entertaining than lying on a bed? 1 month ago:
I don’t know that it is. I suppose it would depend on which part of the floor you’re talking about?
- Comment on People who say water doesn't help after eating piment are just wrong 1 month ago:
This seems like it would fit better in the unpopular opinions community.
Having said that, bread works a million times better than water if you eat something too spicy
