Yeah there's no metal on lemmy despite being literally named Lemmy and I'm here to fix that

My ex wife refused to learn how to drive and looking up learned helplessness blew my fuckin mind

The only thing I disagree with there is they force you to cut your hair lol

Guess how much gun violence there is in Finland thanks to mandatory basic training

It took me a long time to learn how to drive well but once I got good I love driving. I think you just need more practice, simple as that

When I was learning I only drove routes I knew well and at very low traffic times of day such as evenings

Finland has unconditional housing lol

Come to Canada lmao

Unfortunately feels like it's my responsibility to be paying attention at this point no matter how noisy and brutal it gets

Eh I'm pretty well versed in this as a metalhead haha. So many of my musical inspirations turned out to be horrible people. I learned guitar partially thanks to Dagon from Inquisition and I can't just unlearn that because he's a piece of shit for one of many examples

I pirate anything that isn't Canadian lol

Ya some people are jerks lol. Obviously I know it's a dumb idea if I'm here asking about it

Also want to say the advice you can get on lemmy for even a really niche topic is amazing. Look at reddit threads about this and there's a lot of people downplaying parrot ownership and saying hell yeah get the bird

If we didn't read books when we didn't personally agree with the artist's views then we wouldn't be reading many books at all

HP is a glorious series and no matter how evil this woman is this is going to remain true

Yeah my life dream is to live in Iceland but short of marrying someone there it's probably never happening

I'm not Finnish but I tried to move there a few years back. Finland is sadly quite xenophobic.

Oh yeah I'd rather be Finnish than American right now haha

Yeah there's support. But Finlands economy is really stagnant right now. Also they border Russia. And the country is politically swinging to the right like most places today

The grass is always greener lol

It's basically impossible to find a job in Finland right now if that makes you feel any better

Well it sounds like she had a very strong bond with her parrot lol

I've had cats all my life and I ain't standing at the base of a tree for it from 8am to 6pm

Could you just use a pop up mosquito tent? It's Mediterranean climate in my location but still slightly colder than where parrots come from and that's a good point lol

What do you think about budgies?

I think waiting till retirement is probably the most sensible advice in this thread

Yeah I'm 30 and single with zero ambitions now but obviously things change and I've always been naive af in this regard
