relatedly, i’m laughing at people here in sweden complaining about rising gas prices that are still nowhere near what they were just a few years ago
drivers have no fucking short term memory i swear to god, all they’re capable of comprehending is “number go up is bad”

ironically i fear the SHIT out of right wingers, because they seem to actively want me to suffer before i die, for the crime of not being able to have a job

if people didn’t bang on about it i would not be able to tell when the clocks switch time, because digital stuff automatically changes and sleeping one hour more or less is well within margin of error for me.

en.wikipedia.org/…/Walking_with_Dinosaurs_(2025_T… - Comment on 1 week ago:
From what i’ve seen it’s basically 50/50 if any one species had a significant amount of feathers, but feathers do seem to have existed in the earliest dinosaur ancestor so it could maybe potentially show up in any species.
Then you can get more detailed and memorize which kinds of dinosaur had what kind of feather covering, like sauropods seem to at most have some quills and similar decorations, while dromaeosaurs (dakotaraptor, velociraptor, etc) were basically big murder birds with full on wings.
But of course even within clades there could be significant difference: T.rex seems to have been, uh, covered in straight up skin like a giant plucked chicken… but at least some of its relatives were mostly covered in feathers.

i have to wonder if americans uh, get them confused with geese… Because geese can absolutely have a tendency to actively harass you, while swans don’t get close enough to interact with us in the first place.
Unless american swans are just suffering from lead poisoning like the general population?

it’s not like documentaries aren’t plenty popular, that recent series on dinosaurs (walking with dinosaurs, i think?) with our homeboy David Attenborough was hyped as fuck, no cap, on god, etc

well yeah, obviously! You have to dilute it 1000 times for it to have any effect.

and why would it look like that? Making it an attractive shape is not difficult and that’s the whole point of fast food joints!
If this is even remotely real i’ll eat my tiny comedy fondant hat that i always wear. - Comment on 2022 was a bleak year 😢 2 weeks ago:
i mean really, just bog standard grocery store vegan nuggets made from wheat protein or whatever are perfectly fine. Not identical to chicken nuggets by any means, but with some fries and dip i certainly don’t care about the difference and i very much appreciate the massive amount of fibre they contain.

- Comment on How come in American classrooms they make another language an elective. Why not teach our kids as many languages possible that way if we go somewhere we will kind of have uper hand? 2 weeks ago:
but that applies to literally all subjects, by this logic the US wouldn’t have any education at all, which clearly isn’t the case even if the education sucks.

and it’s not like this is at all unique to china, i’m pretty sure all the western countries are seeing the same thing happen just to a lesser degree.
Think of all the small towns in the US, they used to be lively places and now most of them are one step removed from being ghost towns. Same thing has happened here in sweden, the countryside is just a big suburb where everyone commutes to work in a city and barely any businesses survive.

this makes no sense to me, aside from english we don’t teach languages because it’s immediately useful in daily life, we teach it because it’s good for your brain and it’s good for the entire population to have some ability to use more languages.
Like, how useful do you think spanish is in northern europe? Not very! and yet most people here learn it in school.

i mean… how often do you think spanish is used in the nordics? and yet a third language is mandatory, and most people pick spanish.
Sure it’s not like most swedes can speak fluent spanish, but it’s also not like they completely forget it. If they go to spain they’ll have a hell of a better chance at being able to talk to people than those who picked german.

the idea that learning languages is particularly difficult seems like an anglophone invention to me, english is a completely standard mandatory subject in most of the world and in many countries a lot of kids learn 2 more languages on top of that.
Here in sweden it’s 100% expected that you speak fluent swedish, english, and can make yourself somewhat understood in at least one other language (usually spanish or german, it’s no different than being expected to know maths and science.
