  I had a door but that didn’t mean my mom couldn’t just walk in anytime

  There are oral rapid tests for drugs in my country that the police use

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
  1. get each traffic cop one 2) there are similar devices for the rapid testing of drugs as well
• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No? This all sounds so weird to me. Breathalyzers exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Do some countries really use dumb tests like this to enforce DUI laws? What?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Its all over⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Good luck with that

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Its all over⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe? Or drinking cold water after not eating anything for a long time?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I never said anything about tackling?? Anyway, here’s the comment you replied to, localized to your dialect:

  Now imagine football soccer, it’s fun, social, great excercise, collaborative and you feel good afterwards.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I am talking about the most popular sport in the world, wtf are you talking about

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not a fan of competitive activities or of games where I feel my physical abilities could let others down.

  I think this is a misconception. There are so many groups that just gather and play amongst each other. And if you screw up, it truly does not matter. Last Sunday I was playing football with my hobby team, there was an own goal and nobody really cared.

  I don’t think this is getting anywhere though. I did a lil trolling and lost the goodwill of the running evangelists.

  oh no i was talking about actual foot ball not whatever they do in the US

  Never done therapy, but running is a waste of time, I can tell you that much. There are a lot of sports and other ways to excercise that are actually fun. Running is boring and pointless.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can we have a healthy life only with fruits or fruits and plants combined alone, and if not why?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sorry if this sounds rude, but based on your comments it seems that you’re just entering the early phase of the Dunning-Kruger curve on nutrition. Which means, you’ve started learning and are getting overly confident, despite not knowing that much in the grand scheme of things.

  Don’t make big dietary changes because you just read something online. Don’t fall for fad diets. Don’t quit eating a large group of foods because they vaguely feel “unhealthy”. Learn about nutrition thoroughly, from reputable sources.

  It’s good that you’re asking questions, though.

  Never heard of this and cannot relate, maybe the better phrasing would be “why do I like the taste of ethanol so much”.

  Irrational customer behavior is usually manufactured by well-funded marketing departments.

  They don’t ”have to”, they know it’s not gonna fix anything. Strategically, it’s perfect though: it only increases instability and makes the economy worse, which in turn is just further going to fuel authoritarianism.

  You might have had shitty experiences with some particular women, but generalizing that to other women is bad for both women in general and you.

  Free music archive freemusicarchive.org has a lot of music licensef under the various creative commons licences

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there communities online where artists share their art for free / donation?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  For photography, maybe unsplash.com ? The site is commercial and many people upload stuff for self promotion reasons, but still, most photos are available for free and under a rather permissive licence

  Parks and libraries are really nice. Most other third places seem to want you to spend money, that’s my experience here in northern Europe anyway.

  Deflection

  Says the person who declines to answer simple questions.

  none of the countries you listed or any other country considered socialist has ever reverted to social democracy

  This is the most incoherent argument I’ve read all week. What does it matter if a country reverts to what? Also, some USSR states did revert to social democracies, but that probably doesn’t count to you because of reasons. To be clear, I don’t care about your reasons for that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it possible to be a leftist, but still really enjoy capitalism?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you were well-read in socialism, you’d know that there are a lot of disagreeing factions, and those disagreements include semantic ones over what is and isn’t socialism.

  So you tell me, what is socialism? Is marxist-leninism socialism? Is Cuba socialist? Current-day China? Mao’s China? Rojava? Would a society organized in worker co-ops be socialist?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it possible to be a leftist, but still really enjoy capitalism?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  From Wikipedia:

  Social democracy is a social, economic, and political philosophy within socialism that supports political and economic democracy and a gradualist, reformist, and democratic approach toward achieving social equality.

  While it is not an objective definition, I think it is a valid point of view to see social democracy rather as a reformist variant socialism than capitalism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it possible to be a leftist, but still really enjoy capitalism?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Social democracy

  In general, investing borrowed money is risky… People just don’t realize they’re doing that when they take on a mortgage.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does free healthcare access increase or decrease the need for medical personnel overall?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There are other disincentives besides price that keep people from going to the doctor if they don’t need to

  • wait times to get to the doctor
  • the time spent actually getting to the doctor and being there
  • social disincentives of having to explain a minor issue to a professional and probably something else that I forget now.

  I used the health care services at my home town once this summer, and I spent two months there. Basic care is free at the point of service there. And I only went because I had had a concussion. Didn’t seem that the other people were there for no reason either.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does free healthcare access increase or decrease the need for medical personnel overall?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The indirect savings of people going to the doctor earlier etc actually mean some of the healthcare ends up being free.

  Also, saying that you’ll have the same problems regardless the system is both factually incorrect and unnecessarily nihilist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are fruits and berries healthy, even though they are mostly just sugar?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Sugar is produced naturally in sugar beet and sugar cane plants.
