  • You are welcome! If you try and like it there a several interesting variations you could do after that, like adding fried mushrooms / garlic / onions on top. If you are into it´s numbing flavour, you could add ground Szechuan pepper into the paste, which imo fits very well because of it´s citrus notes, enjoy!

  • I wholeheartedly recommend Miso Butter Pasta. There are several variations but the main idea is to thoroughly blend a mix of soft (room temperature) Butter and Miso and to use it like a pesto with Spaghetti or Linguine.

    My favourite version is to add a tablespoon of Mirin and a dash of roasted sesame oil into the butter miso mix and stir it into a paste. When pasta is ready, mingle hot pasta with the paste so that every noodle is evenly coated, arrange on a plate and sprinkle with a mix of white and black sesame seeds, drop spring onion chopped into small rings on top, voilá!

  • I suspect a steep learning curve

    You will find one but it´s all manageable. I recommend focusing on one faction and one or two unit types at the beginning and learn just those tech trees first, to avoid getting overwhelmed by the abundance of units and go from there. Vehicles and/or Bots are good unit types to start with. Just let your team know what unit types you will go for at the start of a match, choose a fitting starting position and it should work fine.

  • I found it to be a pretty short game, maybe you just did not enjoy playing it?

  • Unity wont stop doing stupid shit, won´t they?

  • Way too far T_T

  • Yes, the tendency of right wingers to define themselves as oppressed victims seems to add to them regularly identifying with left perspectives for all the wrong reasons.

    Another very weird example if this was a young female nationalist and xenophobe from Germany, who unironically covered the radical anti colonialist Get Up, Stand Up by Bob Marley and The Wailers, in a cringe af YouTube video. Before anyone asks, I sadly was not able to find it anymore, otherwise I would have posted a link for your amusement of course.

    Then there was also the teenage anti-vaxxer, who held a speech at a protest organized by the Querdenker movement (german localization of QAnon) and seriously compared herself to Anne Frank during WWII, because she illegally held her birthday party in secret during the covid lockdown. You can´t make this shit up ...

  • What "Machine" did you think he was raging against? The dishwasher?

  • Can´t we just guillotine them? They look so stringy and tough. I´d much rather have some nice cheese instead.

  • I’m underweight myself and eat very little (...) I feel chubby after a few days of binge eating

    I see, so you are probably affected by an eating disorder yourself and therefore biased. That explains your stance on the topic.

    your advice is (...) making the issue out to be much larger than it probably is. (...) OP never used these words

    OP sounds inexperienced and probably is confronted with this kind of disorder for the first time. So naturally OP describes it without using certain vocabulary and therefore wrote: "She gained some weight but she is not fat at all!" and "She was underweight before, because she hardly ate anything".

    simultaneously suggesting he ignore the problem

    So you agree there is a problem? I never suggested to ignore the problem. I only suggested to not join in on the topic of "I am fat", brought up by someone with a possible eating disorder. See next point for reason.

    as someone reaching out for help is not doing so to put you in a bad position

    Saying "I am fat" when being just above underweight, does not equal asking for help. It equals asking for confirmation of a distorted body awareness and self image.

  • I don’t think you have any experience with eating disorders or women in general.

    That is nothing more than your assumption and you assume wrong. I will not tell you details about my private life, because it´s not your concern, just this much. I have several years of painful first hand experience of living with a women who suffers from severe eating disorders, so I intuitively recognize certain patters the moment I see them.

    Someone who used to be skinny gaining a bit of weight and feeling fat is not “behavioural patterns connected to anorexia/ bulimia”.

    That is not what OP described though. You are diminishing the facts. OP wrote:

    She was underweight before because she hardly ate anything. She’s way better now.

    So let´s believe OP and consider that she was not just skinny but in fact underweight, which is a very important and significant difference when talking about eating disorders. Furthermore, consider that the reason OP states for her being underweight before is that she used to "hardly eat anything" which clearly points to anorexia. Now combine being underweight and hardly eating anything earlier, with the fact that not being underweight anymore makes her feel "fat", which points to distorted self perception and misguided body awareness.

    And even if it was, how does “this is clearly freaking you out, let’s ignore it and do this instead” supposed to help?

    By avoiding a discussion that will only do harm to someone with an eating disorder, independently of what you say to her. Did you ever have a discussion like that with someone who suffers from an eating disorder? I had them hundreds of times. There where in fact phases when I had such discussions on a daily basis and trust me, you can only loose there. Btw, I did not come up with that sentence myself. It´s from a website that gives professional tips about how to deal with people who suffer from eating disorders. I wish I would have known about it back then, when I would have needed it. Instead I fell into the trap over and over again and I wanted to help OP to not make that mistake.

    I’ll assume you have the best of intentions in mind

    You assume correctly.

    if that’s the case you really shouldn’t be giving advice here because everything you’ve said so far is harmful.

    I honestly do not understand how, because my intention was the exact opposite of doing harm. Please elaborate.

  • I made up nothing. I simply quoted OP and everyone can see that. You on the other hand are clearly not arguing in good faith and I don´t have time for that. Blocked to prevent further animosities.
