This is beyond midly infuriating, it could actually be crossposted on !workreform@lemmy.world given the insanity of it.
- Comment on Working customer service burned out my social battery. It no longer holds a charge like it used to. 2 weeks ago:
My technique at the pub: focus on the sudoku of the daily newspaper until I’m drunk enough to engage in conversation and be unaffected by the chaos around me. Pros: pretty good for my social life Cons: pretty bad for my liver
- Comment on My chemistry professor after explaining that helium is colorless, odorless, non-toxic, and inert [Day 67] 2 weeks ago:
True and, speaking of nuclear fusion, it’s a big if. Given the amount of “enough energy” needed.
- Comment on My chemistry professor after explaining that helium is colorless, odorless, non-toxic, and inert [Day 67] 2 weeks ago:
Physics professor: That’s not true! You can make nuclear fusion with helium-3 which doesn’t make the reactor core radioactive over time. And I think that’s cool!

Reninds me when I stayed in this village in a guest room, for a civic mission. My host kept talking about the “black familly” in the village. And I was like: “Do you have anything to say about them apart from their skin color?” 🙄

- Comment on public health ftw 1 month ago:
If you ever try to build a public health system from the ground up in the US, don’t fall from the same mistakes we did in Europe. Namely, defunding public hospitals where most of the costly procedures happen and funding private hospitals with public money, where they mostly do low-risk profitable procedures. I could go on, but you get the irony.
- Comment on Hope you had a great christmas 1 month ago:
I thought the US would be way up there given the intensive livestock industry there. But I guess we all underestimated the pig industry in China. They have multi-storey slaughter houses for pigs over there!

Make me remember to gift you a catheter bag for Christmas. You’ll see how great it is: a straw and diaper all in one!

I prefer the French Left take on the idea. They did a campaign awhile back titled: “The fascists are voting, are you?” With a big portrait of the most well-known far right politician in the country. In the end they had to pay a 3000€ fine but I’d say it was worth it.

I feel mildly insulted. I use arch btw.
- Comment on I bean meme for the ladies 5 months ago:
It might be extra funny because I saw this at the bar.
- Comment on I remember a time where you would get multiple results from a search with no scrolling 6 months ago:
Don’t worry, Google is actually getting sued for its various malpractices (paying browsers millions to be their default search engine, Google adsense putting the best bidder at the top of the search results, etc). It might even come to the US justice system ordering the breakup of various Google products into smaller independent companies.
- Comment on He was ahead of his time 6 months ago:
Makes me remember this one time in English class in France where one student called him Jean-François Kennedy. The whole class had a good laugh, including the teacher 😅
- Comment on Never give up 7 months ago:
Wether it’s on the internet or at a bar counter, I like to engage in debate to better myself. If your goal is to turn every fanatic that crosses your path, you’re gonna be depressed real soon.
- Comment on To all you outside of the US... 7 months ago:
There’s no need for that, unless parts of the US want independence, like some Scots regarding the UK. But break it all up because it’s too messy, not healthy? That’s what critics of the EU or the UN also say. Myself I’ve always been an advocate of unity and collaboration since it’s the only way we’re gonna be able to solve climate change and every other major world crisis.
- Comment on To all you outside of the US... 7 months ago:
It’s not that us outsiders like to watch your elections closely. But we need to since they’re gonna have a big impact on the world we live in, whether we like to admit it or not.
- Comment on An EXTRA Hour! 1 year ago:
Yeah I meant switching back and forth between ST and DST. We almost got rid of it in the EU! Then COVID came so we had more pressing matters I guess.
- Comment on An EXTRA Hour! 1 year ago:
To me it just means a week of getting up and getting hungry one hour too early. My body hates daylight saving.
- Comment on Don't forget to tip 1 year ago:
This post might just be taking the piss at those trying to defend landlords. Or its a genuine effort to take their side, I’m not sure. Anyway, criticism of landlords was bound to bring people to defend them and/or criticise renters in response. Don’t fret too much, many of us also despise the accumulation of weath through acquiring real estate.
- Comment on And now Bezos is trying to inserts ads everywhere 1 year ago:
Fuck you Spotify! I download my mp3 just like cool kids did 20 years ago, and it suits me just fine!
- Comment on The amount of spam texts I get from Republican campaigns 1 year ago:
Damn that seems really infuriating. Where I live there’s a government program to forbid anyone to send you ads or political propaganda (and the best part is that you can report those who slip through the net!) It isn’t fool proof but it did decrease the amount of calls from people trying to sell me shit I don’t want.
- Comment on Names for different positions on the couch 1 year ago:
I must admit, I have been seen in the “have you ever been on fucking sofa” position quite a few times.
- Comment on x last night 1 year ago:
I guess some users of tech lemmy might have felt concerned by this.
