I really liked bell hooks’s approach to this. She focuses on incorporating male problems into feminism as a focal point, not excluding them.

Fair point. Probably not very separate to begin with, but definitely so now.

Seconding the bread for sure. German bread (especially rye) is a real treat, and most larger supermarkets have bakeries in them.

I’m also from the Midwest and I lived in Munich for a year. It’s a lovely place. The groceries were cheaper and fresher/better quality, the food was great, public transit was incredibly useful (I’m not sure how it fares in/to Grunwald, but the transit in Munich is quite extensive). At least near the city, most neighborhoods are fairly walkable and have nice neighborhood shops, cafes, etc.
If you’ve been to Aldi in the US at all, definitely check out a German Aldi. It’s next level and amazing. Fresh sliced bread, falafel, mango lassi… I miss it.

Truth to the legends… there’s a reason two separate religious codes banned consumption of pork.
- Comment on Um... I'm not even using a VPN... Fuck you reddit. 2 days ago:
I kept getting blocked as a bot by Cloudflare too. It sucks to be restricted from the internet just because I care about privacy.

Don’t have to move on platonically, though. More friends is always nice.

The Snufkin profile picture paired with that comment really makes this absurdly hilarious for me.

I’m glad reading is cool now.

I just saw this at work today for the first time from a younger person. No one I’ve ever emailed with has done summaries before. It took me by surprise. Especially because this is an organization that is built on reading things.

This is why I love ones like Kurzgesagt that publish sources and ‘read more’ pages for their videos.
- Comment on Anon is Illiterate 3 weeks ago:
Interesting, never though about the cadence thing. I usually try to speed up videos. It works fine for casual YouTube videos but never for podcasts or anything where I need to retain the information.

A decent Brother toner printer isn’t more than $100-150 though… assuming USD.
- Comment on Twitch's largest political streamer, Asmongold, shovels racist and xenophobic messaging to his audience of 52K+ live viewers 5 weeks ago:
It’s so hard to find enclaves on the internet that aren’t just reposting the same ragebait over and over.

Right! I never would’ve heard of it if not for a random comment on that other cursed site.

I will share and highly recommend this resource: CCI’s Self Help Resources. There are various pages for different types of dilemmas, and most of them take you to self-directed workbooks you can fill out yourself. They’re not only informative, but they also guide you through your thinking about these issues and how to deal with them and grow from them.
- Comment on I don't know who The Rizzler is and Im not interested. 3 months ago:
Oh, that is somewhat promising. They’ve done great with Severance, which I’ve seen, and apparently also Silo (which I haven’t).
- Comment on I don't know who The Rizzler is and Im not interested. 3 months ago:
Huh really? That’s exciting! I hope they don’t mess it up. It seems long overdue with all these book/video game adaptations that have been coming out.

Is this what having a stroke feels like?

I mean, cyberspace is at least a genuine term made by Gibson. The rest…

Lysistrata, then.

Huh, would that work for remote proctors?

Ah ok, I’ve lived in the NW side and not ever seen listings that talk about heated floors. Sounds interesting!

Was this a luxury unit?
- Comment on What are some old games that are hard to revisit, because a more modern and superior version exists? 4 months ago:
Same, this is how I got frustrated by Hades. I no longer have endless time to sink into a game to get good.
- Comment on Which game is it? 4 months ago:
I remember that, Nexon?

The ‘remastered polygons’ lol… yeah. Slowly trying to get back to my ever-growing Steam library…

I recently got recommended her channel. She’s amazing, like Jenny Nicholson but for science.
- Comment on Anti-acknowlegements 5 months ago:
Well, at least in connection with her:
Coined by English philosopher and historian of science William Whewell in March 1834 in an anonymous review of Mary Somerville’s book On the Connexion of the Physical Sciences in the Quarterly Review

I appreciate her telling it like it is and not bowing to a pressure to please.
