Cool, I’ll take an ottoman style cannon. The seige of Constantinople was still medieval even if it was the last thing to be medieval.
- Comment on With regards to cutlery, do you prefer a spoon or a fork for eating cake? 4 hours ago:
I don’t. Preferences set one up for disappointment. I simply use what is offered or whichever has more clean.
Forks for ice cream fresh from the freezer though, they break into it better

As an engineer from a family of engineers, yeah i wholeheartedly believe that you learned better people skills from the criminally insane than engineers. I had a real tough time learning people skills and emotional resilience

Ah I interpreted reaching out to strangers more broadly as including going to places where it’s normal and expected behavior to pursue strangers for sex.
Dick pics I’ve just always assumed were about power like catcalling.

I also think it’s just that some (especially young adult) people are very sex motivated, and due to various factors young women like that are often treated as abnormalities rather than within the expected variation of humanity.

Reddit has worse but it’s more contained imo. Most of lemmy browses all so we’re all just here with each other as opposed to having people cordoned off onto the red pill and female dating strategy vs trollx and similar communities.
Women reddit is the main thing I miss

I mean, yes. The human touch is excellent for stuff like sexting and erp with strangers on the internet. But also, that’s what hookups are.

Both of these are regional. Growing up in Ohio awnings were rare. And in some states ac is more or less common. I know in Washington’s Puget Sound region it’s more or less only in new construction because before the past decade or so it’s been mild all year.

Balconies aren’t really a thing for most people in the American Midwest, which is where I’m from. You have porches and patios, but those are weather permitting structures and they’re mostly used when it’s a bit later so it’s not too bright.

In some places where air conditioning is omnipresent they’re uncommon. There’s a technology connections video about them that touches on it
- Comment on Would it be possible to have a successful career as a lawyer and never lie? 3 days ago:
A good lawyer always tells the truth professionally. At least in common law countries like mine. I’m going to generally speak USian, but our northerly neighbors are likely similar as are the brits, kiwis, and aussies. I’m not certain a prosecutor in my country could do well without lying at all, but that’s an entirely different problem of cultural collapse.
A defense lawyer defends both innocent and guilty as their zealous advocate. Their job is to poke doubt in the prosecution’s narrative and possibly provide a counter narrative, but generally challenge everything the prosecution can’t prove beyond a reasonable doubt. They may also just be pleading for lesser sentencing. That’s part of how plea deals became so common here. They also don’t say the client is innocent, they state that the client is pleading guilty or not guilty. People can be not guilty and have done it as well, so long as they either have a lawful reason to do the action, or are incapable of legal guilt such as by insanity. Copaganda has attempted to convince the masses that these people are lying scumbags who get bad guys on the streets instead of defenders of liberty who force the government to actually prove people did what they claim they did.
A prosecutor’s job is to take the evidence and build and reinforce a narrative that can withhold the defense’s scrutiny. It should be wholly truthful to the best of their knowledge. The goal is to convince the jury beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused is guilty and then advocate for a sentence they feel is fair.
Then you’ve got all sorts of other lawyers. Cause lawyers like human rights and environmental lawyers largely argue over interpretations of laws and whether actions violate them. These people ought to believe what they say. Business and corporate lawyers don’t even have room to lie, they’re just building contracts and such.

Not just public schools. I went to private school and still woke up with high school nightmares for years as a college graduate.
I think the expectations are a part of it, but I also think it’s the fact that it’s an extremely stressful time period between expectations for one’s future, high hormones, major social changes that happen as everyone’s brain cooks at a different speed, and the constant fighting for increased independence.
Like, don’t get me wrong I also didn’t enjoy being in class, and I’ve had full on flashbacks to fights with my father over my grades in high school (also have a ptsd diagnosis), but imo the educational elements of high school weren’t meaningfully worse than earlier years or college/adulthood. It was being a teenager that was particularly traumatic, and high school was just the location where most of the issues converged

That makes perfect sense actually. It’s an effective way of asking “are you aware of what’s going on” and “are you intentionally acting in a way that’s socially frowned upon and may be illegal”.

It’s worse than an echo chamber that they have. It’s isolated improv. They aren’t just agreeing, they’re "yes and"ing. Collective world building without critical thought, disagreement, or awareness that it isn’t how reality works.
