It was on a wedding. I was talking to a dude who got seated at our table. Somehow he managed to change the subject to gender and such, him not understanding why we need these new pronouns and such. I could already tell, that this conversation was heading in a bad direction. Then he said something like "I don't care if people are gay, but at least some years ago, they would hide at home and be embarrassed about it!"
That was the point when I turned around without another word and simply walked away. He didn't understand what he did wrong. But I didn't want to make a scene at the wedding. Also I am certain that it has no use discussing anything with people like that.
As an outsider of US politics and stuff, it appears to me that all those charges against Trump seem to happen at the same time now. Is this intentional or simply because that's how long it took? I guess it will be very expensive for Trump and it will also most likely result in him getting confused by his own lies in front of court.
Let's hope he will finally be prosecuted for at least some of his crimes and won't be able to run for president again.
He made enough damage to the US and the world in general.
Yes, it IS not the norm. It's a minority. But that doesn't make it weird. Just because it's kind of rare doesn't make it a bad thing. It's been and still is the society that is making it weird for the people themselves. But I see a positive development to a more open minded and inclusive society, even tho the "angry people" who are against this are loud, they won't be able to stop it! And they know it, that's why they are so angry at everyone who's different as them.
I'm actually trying to be very careful with my data, to the point where I get sidelooks from some people who don't care at all. Yet I try to still be able to use the services I want to. Like Google Maps. I know that I am selling my data to them. But the service helps me so much in my everyday life that I am willing to pay this price.
But also I use AdBlock on all of my devices. So I really don't care too much about advertising. I'm more concerned about other consequences like, individual pricing, or change of government to a dictatorship which would prosecute me for my beliefs I posted online, or Netflix not fuing finishing the series because they already calculated that they wouldn't make as much fuing money as they would like to.
I would argue that, even tho it's not how a human would respond, it's correct nevertheless. Because there could be news about him still. Maybe someone found out his grave is empty or he faked his death or there is a new song out from him, like with Linkin Park, where they released a "new" song with Chester singing.
This is the way!
Also what a lot of others already commented, that it's more smooth to use with one hand.
For me it's also nice to use, when it comes to switching languages. English is my second language and with swipe it feels like the autocorrect works pretty good, because it is more forgiving if you don't know exactly how the word is actually written. A small idea about how the word is constructed is enough.
"Hey, have you read today's news:
There where several cases of pneumonia in Wuhan, China, with no known cause. Probably only a local problem, which will be under control in a couple of weeks, tho.
So don't worry about it" - send by IE
As a German, it always feels wrong being at a HipHop concert, when the crowd does this arm up and down thing.
