It's always mango season when all your fruit is shipped in from Ghana.

The teachers frowned on us saying cunt.

They're always up to shit like that. They like derailing cargo trains in Scandinavia too.

What about surströmming?

Actually what is sold as anchovies (ansjos) in Norway are sprats and don't even taste similar to anchovies. I've only rarely seen actual anchovies in the shop and it's usually in an international food shop. Anchovies are delicious on pizza.

Fucking Russia.

That's actually a pretty nice fork.

I actually own the cutlery set that 5 is from. Because it was the best option at IKEA at the time.

Not if those chonky frontline dogs have anything to say about it.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

The most fucked up episode of robot wars so far.

A few instances are ideologically driven. So lemmy.world and lemm.ee tend to be pretty straightforward instances politically slightly left of centre but there are others like lemmy.ml and hexbear that push Kremlin/CCP propaganda. Anyone can set up an instance and federate with the other instances. But instances can also de-federate with specific instances. For example most instances have de-federated from hexbear and threads so posts made to them won't show up for users who use lemmy.world for example.

It's like Reddit, but not owned by a large faceless corporation intent on using it for social engineering. That being said, if you disagree with the political ideology of some instances they'll give you a ban for racism and not qualify it. Eg don't talk badly about Russia or Palestine on lemmy.ml posts. Generally, be nice and people will reciprocate. Except lemmy.ml.

Because Russia doesn't go after strategic targets. Only civilians and because (at least in Europe) the vast majority of people fucking hate Russia. Especially countries that share a border with them or used to be part of the soviet union. Nobody hates Russia more than Russians who have managed to get out though. I had a russian colleague who basically gave up on seeing his family until after the war was over and he has no intention of ever living there after.

Because whatever causes it, it's a difference in synaptic connectivity that can't be medicated or trained away. The only effective way to remove autism from society is removing autists from society and that's exactly what rfk jr wants to do.

Fuck all most likely. You'd have to have an extremely steady hand and do it as the plane was landing. But the pupil of a pilots eyeball is an extremely small target.

I'm no Marxist. I'm also not American. But I'm pretty sure it's more about the erosion of human rights and the rise of an autocratic regime. Shit looks pretty bleak for Americans. To get an idea of what's coming next Elon musk and Donald trump want to follow the insanity of Curtis yarvin. JD Vance and Peter Thiel want to follow project 2025. Neither end well.

As a European, it actually saddens me that America has gone this way.
