you just pull them out to use them and think nothing of it

And then I push it back in once I’m leaving, hey!

You can say Brutain on the internet.

I only eat bread from Ötzi’s stomach.

I usually add context for this exact reason. You get lazy once, and there you go.

That’s admirable! I looked it up in translate and got a completely different result. I think I know what was going on : ) 🦃

I think we can - but just see how many people in your country call Turkey Türkiye (they made a request back in 2022) - and that was just one country, not all.

It’s like calling the entire country of the Netherlands Holland. Holland(ia?) is part of the Netherlands which gave the name of the country in a bunch of languages.

This is weird, by the way, I just wrote about the exact same thing not too long ago.

I used to work at this kiosk which was inside a café. A customer wanted to pay from the inside, which can happen, but it’s rare. Since the reader was cable wired to the plug at the window, I had to bring it to where he was standing, but the cable wasn’t long enough. I pulled it out as much as I could, and waited for him to step forward and reach out with his card in his hand.

He was just standing there, waving his card at the machine from ~3-4 feet away. Like, I don’t know, at one point the card reader would go “HEY, that card is Larry! Hi, Larry, how are you doing, you old sonofabitch?”

In my opinion the world is at this shitty state exactly because so many people just don’t care and turn a blind eye to so many injustices, awful things happening in the world. You can ignore the smell of smoke coming from the neighbour, but enough sitting around will just get your roof on fire, as well. Even if the fire avoids you, you could easily be the person burning inside while the neighbour is just “taking their pills”, not caring about the state of the world.

Had more people cared, we wouldn’t see the same atrocities as back in and around WW2, Fascist states and semi-dictatorships running wild without anyone stopping them, white men oppressing minorities, etc.

Hol’ up, does that mean Venezuelan politics is mighty fine?

On the one hand, his posts contain a non-negligible number of “boomer” style memes (could be stuff like wife bad, targeted at minorities, vegans, whatever - not necessarily actual examples, just trying to define “boomer” humour), and some of them end up getting downvoted into negatives.

On the other hand, he’s bringing content to Lemmy regularly. I’m not saying that’s enough on its own, but I can complain all day about niche communities being dead/empty, and then I don’t post shit. He does. More people should do that.

Just do it right, though.

Oh, whether it’s a bot or not: I’m not saying definitely not, but at least the posting history is showing changes. Started putting an NSFW tag on everything lately (probably to boost engagement, because wow, maybe boobs), and it seems like it stopped. Could still be experiments with a bot account, but there’s that.

Now that all the corn is gone… should we just all mark every single post as NSFW, regardless of the content? I guess it’s fine, since it’s been the case with Mickey7 for a while.

I suspected it was rage bait, starting with the British isles being coloured green, despite the existence of the word ‘toe’ there.

Elections in my country. And you can imagine my general level of excitement if this is the thing I’m the most excited about.

But this fucker has been in his position for 15 years now, polarising society, being Putler’s buttplug, undermining the EU and the sanctions, protecting pedos, even trying to ban Pride, and selling out the country to China/Russia. This is pretty much the last hope to do something against that, since he’s been eroding democracy and installing puppets everywhere while moving all the country’s money to places he has personal control of.

And the only opposition runner who actually has realistic chance against him is also rather shady/sus. And this is the best thing we got.

I could only find the “original”, without the bottom text. The one with the comment is just as blurry.

I wouldn’t sleep with a bra, either. It’s just an unnecessary layer, preventing my skin from breathing properly. The straps would also be just in the way. I’m a cis male, though.

Totally agreed, that’s the p(l)an.

A very slight clarification here:

cheap to make alumin

um nonstick pans. Mine doesn’t work AND it wasn’t cheap : (.

Scientists are your best bet, I guess. I wish I could cite you studies, but I would have to search, as well. I might soon.

UPDATE: This far all I got was ‘best to be careful’ or ‘staying away never hurts’:

These findings challenge the assumption that PTFE particles are biologically inert, highlighting hazards arising from their physical interactions, especially at the nanoscale. Given the relevance of the co-culture in vitro model of intestinal barrier to human intestinal physiology, the results underscore potential intestinal health risks from PTFE-MNPL exposure. Future studies should focus on chronic, low-dose exposures to elucidate the specific cellular pathways activated by PTFE-MNPL exposure.

Due to toxicity concerns, PFOA has been replaced with other chemicals such as GenX, but these new alternatives are also suspected to have similar toxicity. Therefore, more extensive and systematic research efforts are required to respond the prevailing dogma about human exposure and toxic effects to PTFE, PFOA, and GenX and other alternatives.
