  • To be honest, I sometimes miss these because I'm tall and they're so low, by the time I'm at the door, I don't see anything obvious. I have to bend my head down to notice there's writing on a button that otherwise looks like the top of a fob scanner or something.

    Those big chunky buttons that push like emergency stop buttons but are green, they're helpful.

  • Yeah, I feel like there's rarely a "calm down" window for the men that need to hear it. There's calm, then there's hurting themselves by breaking things or hurting other people. "You need to calm the fuck down!" is likely to work, whereas "You need to calm down" will only make things work.

    Insecurities fuelled by testosterone. Where fisty cuffing anything appears to be a positive step toward sound resolution.

  • I like how a school thinks it's their responsibility to give out punishment here. Like, they think it's in their scope. What other obscure things do they handle in the community with their Letters of Punishment? Maintaining hedge heights? Sentencing criminals? Ensuring fresh undies are worn?

  • Aye, but in colder temperatures tight denim cools over leaving no air pocket to trap body heat or improve wind resistance. There's no one on this planet that can generate body heat on such a level it can counters the atmosphere, so creating a little atmosphere inside the denim with loose jeans is the next best thing. It's the same concept as single vs double glazed windows.

    If you want tight pants in cold climate, need to use high textured material likecorduroy or fleece, otherwise add a thermal base layer under the denim.

  • I would guess these are the ones that still see themselves as God's chosen people, superior to all others.

    That level of nationalism could make neo-Nazis blush. The Abrahamic religion(s) rejected the much older Semitic traditions, but only after plagerising them, right down to the "Genesis" being Enuma Elish—boy, they hated the Babylonians, but they hated everyone, really. So then they whacked it under monotheism, where the one god conveniently chooses the Abrahamic people as the superior ones over the other Semites—what a fucking coincidence! 😲

    It's kinda like Nordicisim but instead of it being about some pseudo "Aryan race" or superiority though "social Darwinism", it's tribalism—12 to be exact. It evolved into superiority of ethnicity by divinie will, backed by ancient texts riddled with acts of genocide and regional conquest, excused as righteous divinity, despite no real obvious purposes behind them besides control.

    So while they're chanting "Death to Arabs" here and rolling out yet another round of localised ethnic cleansing there, they're somehow avoiding the irony of being the most "antisemitic" of Semites, the Arabs being the largest group within, no less.

    Its a level of nationalistic ideology you can't stop overnight, lol. That shit runs deep on so many levels.
