Semple is metal as fuck. He made the Pinkest Pink after Kapoor bought exclusive artistic rights to Vantablack, then after Kapoor taunted Semple with a picture of his middle finger dipped in Pink, Semple made Diamond Dust, which is glitter made out of literal glass shards. He also made Black 2.0 and later on Black 3.0 because fuck Anish Kapoor.
It's not just Anish Kapoor he's against; he's against the whole monopolization of art materials and colours. He made TIFF Blue (versus Tiffany Blue), Easy Klein (versus International Klein Blue), and even Freetone (versus Adobe and Pantone).
I'm glad to have been raised somewhere trilingual.
In any case, if your reading and speaking is bad, you should practice that part. Get a few books you think you'd enjoy! If you are unsure about a word's pronunciation while you are reading, you can look it up online, or just ask your husband.
People here need to calm down. This isn't about cutting out red meat entirely from your diets; it's about lowering your consumption of red meats. If you really love eating meat (and I know I do), try replacing some of those with white meats like chicken or fish.
Humans are evolved to be omnivores; eating meat is only natural for us. And yes, corporations and capitalism are the biggest factors in ruining our environment. But like recycling, we can still do our small part by ordering a grilled salmon in lieu of a steak once in a while.
Not European, but most people in my city would say "3 minutes" as they'd live directly above a mall. I live somewhere quieter, so it's about 12 minutes for me to the closest supermarket, and 4 more if I want to go for cheaper groceries, hella restaurants and food stalls, and boba.
When I was staying in Berlin, the closest Lidl was a 15-minute walk away.
It's okay if you don't eat meat, and it's okay to just say that; I'm just more annoyed at the whole trend of "meat substitutes" when you can just... not eat meat.
Tofu is an awesome ingredient, used in an incredible variety of dishes. To reduce it to something it isn't trying to be is such a waste of a good ingredient.
No. Look, it's reference; as long as it's reference and not a study or copy, no one should care. In the same way that if you pose a 3D model that someone else made, rendered it out, and used that as reference, you don't have to mention it.
Lethal Company is pretty similar in that you can monitor teammate activities from the relative safety of the ship and warn them of any incoming dangers, and even teleport them out if needed.
If I might Plonk in, I have a solution 4-Widening up your perspective. If your Garbage is a Cheese Race you might want to take it slow and don't Sprint, but if it's neat you might want T-spin your mindset around and build on top. Take it in Stride, Back-to-Back, and you can Perfectly Clear out your board.
If you like museums, get the Museum Pass, which grants you access to 30 museums over the course of 3 days. Just a heads up that some of the museums (especially the ones on Museum Island) are so popular you have to book a reservation the day before. Only 2-4 hours of free time per day is quite limiting, though.
Pergamonmuseum is the most popular museum in Berlin, but I believe it's under renovation work right now (which sucks; it has the best collection of hot naked muscular statues and reliefs). My personal recommendations are Altes Museum, Bode-Museum, the Gemäldegalerie, and the German Spy Museum.
Rüyam Gemüse Kebab makes my favourite döner kebabs. I got addicted to the one on Hauptstraße back when I was there. Other people have different favourite döner stores, so try them all out while you can!
even better yet, make that durable phone shell user-replacable! you can even have those shells in different styles and colours so users can accessorize their devices any way they like! this would also give birth to a thriving industry of aftermarket shells for your phones, where small makers can even 3D-print their own shells for sale.
because we sleep at night and are active during the day, and so we need to track that in a way that is universal. if i mention 12:00, people understand that it is noon where i am, and if i mention 22:00, they know it's bedtime.
the whole point of time zones is to have time cohesion in a wider region within margin of error of solar noon, so people on the far east and far west of a time zone are close enough to solar noon at 12:00. you can take a train to a neighbouring city without having to worry about needing to adjust your timekeeping devices by a few minutes.
to put your scenario into perspective, china has already done what you suggested on a smaller scale: the entire country is on UTC+8 for the sake of "unity" and "national cohesion". beijing loves it; 12:00 is still noon there! except it ain't in xinjiang and tibet. xinjiang has its own unofficial xinjiang time zone of UTC+6, and so people have to specify which time zone they're talking about and convert times between the two time zones in conversation because the uyghers use xinjiang time and the han chinese use beijing time, and you can imagine the confusion and also technical issues that has arisen from that.
imagine that, but 12 times worse. no thanks, i'll do the simple math of converting time zones if i ever need to communicate internationally.
