  I generally use the DOI, but I did not realize that you could just type in a paywalled url. That might explain it, thanks!

  Don’t forget his brother, Rabbi Chang.

  “Señor Chang cheatsheet” should bring it up if you need it again

  I have tried it, but also not had any luck. I am looking for research, but it’s still a really narrow field, tbh. Even in Germany, I think there are only a handful of DaF/aZ postgrad programs.

  “Downright Mendelian” is the type of comment I get too rarely

  You calling it elvanse makes me suspect you have access to maultaschen. Bürger vegan maultaschen (Typ 1) have macronutrients in the proportion suggested by nutritionists; taste good raw, sautéed, or in soup; cost <€2,50; and keep very well. Other varieties are possibly similar, but I don’t know if they can be eaten raw or how they keep.

  Plus, they’re a good base for taking elvanse.

  I don’t know if it’s just my field or if I’m searching wrong, but I get almost nothing when I look for papers about German grammar and language instruction. Is this mostly for more mainstream/hard science papers?

  I feel like most copypastas (at least the ones that I can think of) were initially received poorly. The 300 confirmed kills one and the vaporeon one are unfortunately the only ones I can remember off hand, but they definitely were

  I don’t think being a sex symbol is something you need to grow out of, but you absolutely need to grow out of relationships where you get slut shamed and I’m glad she did.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You know which voice to use. We all know which voice to use.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Her first husband, yes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You know which voice to use. We all know which voice to use.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You made me look it up and holy fuck is this a dick move:

  The couple, who married just four months ago, reportedly got into an explosive argument at Universal studio chief Ron Meyer’s house two weeks ago. Meyer screened Borat for Rock, Anderson, and several others, and Rock considered Anderson’s performance, of which he apparently knew nothing whatsoever, so embarrassing and infuriating that he reputedly called her a “slut” and a “whore.” Since then, relations between the two have gone from bad to worse, and Anderson announced that the split was for real on her website Monday (Nov. 27).

  I figured kid rock just had a dumb sense of humor and thought it was funny to repeatedly call her “my wife,” but apparently he preferred slut shaming her. I’m also confused about how you marry Pamela Anderson without being cool with her doing sexy things on camera.

  That said, it’s nearly twenty years ago and was initially reported by the New York Post, so take it with a grain of salt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What a fun guy!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have always interpreted it more like people with a build like Zach woods, not just people who exercise. And in my sexual history, the skinny ones were all smokers, which has got to have an impact.

  They really always are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally paid off my Costco hotdog 🙏⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The POS system at my bakery rounds up when it’s for a customer (getting half of a loaf of bread for example) and down when it calculates the 50% employee discount. That alone has a weirdly huge impact on my job satisfaction.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What a fun guy!⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  My sister used to say “skinny guys get all the cock,” which I have not yet seen disproven in 15+ years of sexual activity primarily with men (though I’m generally skeptical about things like that). She’s married now and has toned it down, so she hasn’t said it in a while, but her husband is skinny.

  Better or worse than a cup of Jill though?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cuppa Jill⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well how else would you use synonyms for a noun?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cuppa Jill⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I fucking love the etymology of animal and food words. My favorite is deer, which is related to the German Tier, and originally meant “animal,” because I imagine early Germanic speakers looking at a deer and thinking “this is it, the quintessential animal.” I get it, honestly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A cuppa Jill⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Like having sex in a canoe

  Tbh, this meme should go on that index, because 460 likes on instagram is nothing compared to ~120 (so far) upvotes on Lemmy.

  But it’s not completely covered in fur. A partially hairy sphere doesn’t need a cowlick.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There's no wrong way to stroke it⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless the mole just doesn’t have hair on its face or ass or somewhere, then it’s possible to comb all hairs flat.

  That is the case, it has bald patches around its mouth and, uh, hands. I don’t want to look up pictures of mole ass, but I can’t imagine the anus itself is hairy, that would be a biohazard trap in the environment moles live in.
