After a year of absence, I’ll give this instance another shot, things have gone better than I expected.

I know enough Finnish people to know you’re just pulling our legs and it really means exactly what we think.
- Comment on Why aren't there mass protests in the USA? 3 weeks ago:
These days i get quite a lot of US news off Lemmy, and aside from Tesla torchings (great start) I mostly just hear about people going to rallies. Are there actually americans out there obstructing something? If so, why aren’t they sharing their own news for solidarity and motivation of masses? How is capitalist media causing fediverse content to be censored?
- Comment on i’m scared of my boyfriend because he’s dry and doesn’t want to initiate a relationship, should i break up because of the latter part? 3 weeks ago:
It works for some people but everything i ever hear just sounds so high maintenance.
Then again, the people in comfortable stable poly relationships probably don’t post much about it online
- Comment on Do kids of rich people feel loved, or are their rich parents toxic? 3 weeks ago:
Idk. There’s a selection process for people who become billionaires. Personally, I don’t think it’s really possible to become and remain one without a pretty low level of empathy.
- Comment on Is it arson to pour water on a Tesla and it catches on fire? 4 weeks ago:
A reddit post from their account asking would be a clue
- Comment on Do you think the US will actually log its national parks? 4 weeks ago:
They were voted in by Americans, and nobody has made any significant moves to impede them. It is not a small group, it is the USA in any sense we normally mean the term when referring to the actions of its government.

It’s not that I do my best work 8 hours before the deadline, it’s that I do my only work 8 hours before the deadline…

that feeling when your meds kick in for the first time and you realize all these other fucking assholes have been living like this their whole lives and never told you.
- Comment on There is no method to this madness 4 weeks ago:
Yes, although it should be noted that one of the trickier parts of ADHD is most people have at least some traits of it, especially when they’re younger. It’s why our memes are so relatable.
Still get checked if you’re thinking it.
- Comment on What does a week of groceries look like to you? 4 weeks ago:
All kinds of ways, but I think a good few recipes to check out are:
- cuban style frijoles with the black beans
- red lentil hummus
- dal makhni for kidney beans (needs a lot more special ingredients than the other two though) Green lentils aren’t one of my favourites most of hte time but they do go well with rice
I can find a recipe similar to mine for any of these if you like

These days, we tend to sit down on Sunday evening and plan out our meals for the week, then go shopping on Monday. We go to the farmer’s market Saturday and plan our meals around what vegetables we could buy locally.
I don’t consider very many things essential. Maybe dry beans, rice (sub millet, quinoa, or other cookable grain as needed), lentils, flour, and salt? Without those I’d have troubles surviving, with an adequate supply of those I could live for months, it’d take a while to even get sick of all the things you can make with it. I’m willing to cut pretty much anything I need to out of my diet if it’s not available and honestly I think the obsession with having all foods available at all seasons is weird.
- Comment on would getting back with an ex be a bad idea? 4 weeks ago:
That’s a normal way to feel. It’s okay to still care about him, but it sounds to me like there are a lot of reasons to move on. It’s also probably the best way to help him grow up himself

It sounds like you already know the answer to your question :)
- Comment on would getting back with an ex be a bad idea? 4 weeks ago:
Being in poor mental health isn’t an excuse for ghosting. Ghosting suggests he doesn’t value your wellbeing over his own: it’s a pretty cruel thing to do to someone, and deeply selfish. You’re still young. In your shoes, I think I’d explore other relationships before diving back into one with several red flags.
- Comment on dear republicans, what's the point of alienating every single ally of the US? 5 weeks ago:
They’ve been whitewashed over time as ST gets farther from the left. The OG ferengi would only have complied with a contract if they thought they’d get caught breaking it, which is honestly a more accurate satire.
- Comment on Billionaires shouldn't exist 5 weeks ago:
Moral and social. I think in a sense these people are addicted to wealth, and we’ve failed them by not only allowing them to have so much of it, but by acting like it makes them better. Just like an addiction we shouldn’t expect them to get over it on their own.
