  Love your description! Incredibly fitting! It’s tasteless honey, basically. Very sweet but not much else

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Absolutely. And in the less extreme variants, there are cultures for which good food is the base of socialization - you mostly meet up for dinner or similar - and others where good food is the exception, happening for big occasions and parties but not an every day occurrence.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Dutchies eat to survive, no care at all about what it is they are eating…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Not drowns every flavor in corn syrup!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Peas plz⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I heard the problem was with yeast interacting poorly with their digestion. Pear, power of the internet, tell me if I’m wrong!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honestly wtf?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ohhh daaaaam!!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honestly wtf?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Wouldn’t there be other possible plants that would provide the same alkaloid compounds?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Waiting for Capitalism to collapse, so we can get this over with so we can reverse climate change and have nice memes, technology and the good end⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  We haven’t crossed the point of no return. We are accelerating because we keep press on the acceleration. If we stopped (as we did temporarily during Covid), stuff would get back on track. We have to act now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Getting in on the library craze with the Reading Rainbow guy⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t get it… I’m getting to the point that i dislike receiving most presents because i don’t have a use for them. Like: “ thanks for thinking about me and getting me this… plastic cheap Christmas decoration/little toy/picture book that I will never use”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It improves the morale of the future worker.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Like a mildly modified version of geisha? Wow!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Racism restaurant ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think the key word was unaged. Cheese tends to become yellow when aged, starting very quickly. But stuff like cottage cheese and mozzarella are indeed milk colored

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I got a sneak peek at the Epstein Ballroom before it opens!!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Some time ago, my colleague tried to pitch to our boss to turn the coffee room into a ball room. Unfortunately, cost and sanitation problems were impossible to fix :/

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feeling that groove⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ironically, I work a lot with Fourier Transform. Still feels like magic. I even taught it! I’m trying to develop more intuition about it (vs hard knowledge)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feeling that groove⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Magic!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feeling that groove⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That explains just a tiny part. There are so many different sounds at the same volume and frequency

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Living the dream...⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Sometimes I feel like a boomer being my years. I can’t watch a show and be on my phone. I either stop one or the other.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We've got it all worked out⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I wanna know! No real reason, but I also partially like seeing the world metaphorically burn, and a new theory would definitely throw out some wrong assumptions we did _somewhere, sometime _.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So much...⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Big Math comes knocking: “you mean Big Physics?”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do air purifiers really reduce dust much?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Keeping the floor dusted removes overall dust everywhere

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do air purifiers really reduce dust much?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You are insane and I like that!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do air purifiers really reduce dust much?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I had one like that, it’s so dumb it had to go at random and often loses the way back home. I assume they still exist. The technology has definitely improved and you can jail break most of them. Last I brought was a little spy bot, honestly, but with some attention you can either overwrite the software (and keep the physical improvements) or block it from accessing the internet. [details figures out by my partner]

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do air purifiers really reduce dust much?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Since that’s something you care about, I will offer an out of topic advice: robot vacuums (in general: vacuuming a lot) decreases the amount of dusting you end up doing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Twinkle twinkle little star⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I will add my own story. Woman, in STEM, I mostly don’t care about what I wear, but sometimes I want to rock it just because. Put on make up, do my nails, wear a skirt. I kept that out of the office until I moved to a department with a flourishing gay community. If they can wear nail polish and skirts, so can I! I’m still usually the only woman in any given room.

  As a counterpoint, for a while I was the fanciest dressing person of the department because none of my T-shirts had holes 😒 also got told, jokingly, to not overdo it the one time I wore a shirt.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Twinkle twinkle little star⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Would you go in a field in which everyone wears short shorts and you get stared at if you don’t?

  Would you “not mind” if your company dress code (for a well paired white collar job) is pink shirt with orange blazer?

  Make it absurd and flip it to yourself. Suddenly, you want to wear “normal clothes” but you stick out like a sore thumb if you do. Would you feel comfortable? Day in, day out?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon likes a girl⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  When I spin my partner, we match hips and my face is somewhere between their shoulder blades

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon likes a girl⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My partner is almost 2m tall. The have often complained that their size easily scares people off. I’m sorry about the anxiety. It sucks.

  I believe the world is better with you in it. If you want to chat, I’m available.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon likes a girl⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You can be the little spoon even when you are much taller than your partner ;)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I am totally unable to drop a single word in a different language in the middle of a sentence. Switching language? Sure! One word in? It’s unintelligible

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A hypothesis⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Troubleshooting is such a big one! Like, you should be able to distinguish between a “I can fix it” issue, a “somebody can fix it” issue and a “my computer burned to the ground” situation… and act accordingly. I’m also okay with the first option being very limited! But please Google your problem until you vaguely understand what’s wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sunday update from the Prime Radiant⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I might give it another try, the first time around I found it forced and bland. Like Asimov tried to connect pieces that were not meant to connect, while not having a lot of inspiration
