There don’t seem to be any active datahoarder communities on lemmy, but looks like we could use some.

Most people who’ve been juggling for awhile don’t need too much additional practice to be able to do at least a few blindfolded catches just because of how consistent your throws get after awhile.
The other thing that’s interesting is how pattern recognition in flying things people aren’t generally used to seeing develops. I used to play ultimate, and when people start learning how a frisbee flies they might be susceptible to chasing it down by following along the path of the disc rather than moving directly to where it’s going to end up. This is sometimes called dogging the disc because (many) dogs do the same thing. But then you learn to “read” the disc and you can tell by the flight path and angle of the disc where it’s going to land.

And I guess if you really don’t wanna put in the chopsticks practice time you could get those “trainer” ones for kids that are essentially tongs.
Not gonna look too sophisticated with em at a restaurant but they work well enough for snacks at home. I’ve been using chopsticks for awhile so I can’t remember how long it took to feel proficient, but I’m always for lazier alternatives 👍

Ibuprofen is also anti-inflammatory while paracetamol isn’t, so it can be used to reduce swelling (eg) rather than just for pain reduction

What about the kids who wouldn’t die under kamala but now will? You say less genocide is the same, but even if it’s 10% less, I bet those 10% of kids would want kamala.

In a sort of actual parallel to this, Richard Adams claimed there was no political allegory in Watership Down, and just a story he told to his daughters.
One of the best cases for death of the author I’ve ever seen (with Bradbury’s comments about Fahrenheit 451 being a close second).

On a semi-related note, a friend of a friend got to know a Japanese woman through a mutual friend group, and apparently after finding out that he had some decent culinary skills she texted him “I want to taste your cook”.

Whether there’s an s after the apostrophe depends on style guide. Most do recommend using the s, though.

Apparently Christianity is about 1.5% of the population, which is almost 2 million people. In some areas you can see signs on sheds talking about Jesus or life after death, etc. A friend of mine knew a local older lady who had one on her shed and asked her if she put it there and said that it just appeared one morning. She wasn’t Christian but thought a sign talking about god was kind of nice so she just left it up.
Guess if the local sect can’t convince people to hang signs they’re willing to do some guerrilla jesus-ing. This one says “Jesus is the son of god.”

I was in line behind someone who had 安 on her nape. I’m guessing she was going for a meaning of like peaceful or restful or something along those lines but you need a compound like 安心 or 安静 for that.
The character alone means more like cheap, at least in Japanese. Maybe it’s different in Chinese.

I still don’t get how the far leftists (the types who think soc dems are basically the same as any flavor of lib, including libertarian, neolib, etc) are so convinced that socialism is the answer when there hasn’t been a country that even comes close to making it work. I guess China works for certain values of working, but it’s pretty capitalist these days, and you’ve got an overbearing government that goes along with it.
Whereas countries like you see in Scandinavia, with strong soc dem policies under capitalism like high taxes on wealth and strong safety nets, seem to be doing pretty well. I get why socialism would be good in theory but implementing it is another story.

I played through Sigil recently and the whole time there was a gaping super shotgun sized hole in my enjoyment of it. I get that Romero fine tuned it to play without it but for me I realized that I can’t feel totally cozy playing doom without the ssg.
