That’s an interesting question and one that’s worth exploring. Reddit certainly has been the source of many homegrown memes, common retorts, and witticisms used across the web. But here, you can try switching to Linux. Download various distros for free and try out combinations of release cycle, built-in apps, and desktop environment to find your favorite.

Belfast has the red edition.

My actual favorite is electric guitar followed by violin, and I’ll gladly expound, but those have already been mentioned.

So for this comment I’ll go with handpan drum. Those sound so amazing and soothing to me.

I think you need to reinitialize pan.sh

This tends to happen with major cultural expeditions. Mapping the world’s farts has likely altered your palette.

Needs more Hannah Montana.

That’s not the best argument, since historically some popes took many years to select. Like, so long it was a major problem and they had to make reforms that included locking the cardinals in a room and taking away everything but bread and water at times.

Good details about the insanity in this Tasting History episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZCs9aMkzBQ

Number 1 by far is knowing how to separate your opinions from your identity.

I’ve been thinking about this for years and I can’t shake the thought that identity politics is the root of most major problems in western society (esp. US). It means people interpret criticism of their opinions as personal attacks instead. This overblown defensive reaction leads to turning around and conflating the opinions of others with their worth as human beings.

Yes, there some truth to that. If you hold hateful & bigoted opinions, I would say that makes you a shit person. But you’re not necessarily condemned to that forever, because opinions can potentially change. This is tied in with Karl Popper’s “Paradox of Tolerance”, i.e. ideas should be tolerated unless they themselves are so intolerant as to undermine the wider marketplace of ideas.

When we equate (potentially temporary) opinions of others with immutable value, that’s what leads to dehumanizing them and taking away their fundamental rights. And as has always been the case throughout history, the burden falls primarily on vulnerable groups (immigrants, ethnic or social minorities, children and the elderly, etc).

People need to understand that YOU ARE NOT YOUR OPINION. Others can and should criticize your opinions, but that doesn’t mean they are attacking you personally. Defend the opinions, but don’t turn around and go ad-hominem in response. And for fuck’s sake, unless an opinion is so abhorrent or intolerant that it threatens someone else’s existence (e.g. Nazis), you don’t get to take away the holder’s rights to citizenship, food, shelter, healthcare, etc.

EDIT: And yes I do consider this a skill that people have to learn. I think most should be capable by maybe… age 7.

Okay, that’s pretty funny. Doesn’t German have the verb “fischen”? At least in English, angling is a specific type of fishing with a hook and line (as opposed to e.g. spears or nets).

I’m still trying to figure this out too. Search engines are no help.

Alle anderen Fremdsprachen sind akzeptabel, nur Deutsch ist anstößig.

Ha, yeah when the lady and her two clones roll across the screen, it looks like all three of them nearly lose their balance and faceplant. I thought Europe was about safety but she’s not wearing wrist guards, elbow pads, helmet, nothing.

That’s obviously a Monoceramisu, arguably even a Unicornimisu.

I’m Honeycomb O’Riordan and you’re listening to NPR.

Brushing your teeth is the only time you clean your skeleton.

For a long time I wouldn’t order pizza, I would always make a friend do it. If they wouldn’t, oh well, guess we weren’t having pizza.

I’ve gotten a lot better, my career has basically required me to be able to make and field calls so I can do it now. But I still appreciate places that let me order online through a form, which is thankfully pretty common these days.

Oh cool. So is the banana added before cooking or after? Is image it could get rather mushy if cooked.
