big yoshi enjoyer
is that better
Yes
you have gelato in the morning?
There's evidence to show that gelato is effective at waking people up in the morning
well yeah, sugar
So that combined with coffee makes a great start for the day
I'd imagine it has something to do with the coldness too
here deserts arent allowed in the morning
Fair enough! I eat dessert for breakfast these days, but it's usually just high protein ice cream with a side of veggie juice
Australia
they have gelato there?
Affogato is just the term for ice cream/gelato with coffee
yeah, but its an italian desert, also more common with gelato
affogato literally means drowned in italian
also, gelato is just better
idk why but australians seem like the coolest people ever
just had some bean taquitos, mexican fried rice, and empanadas
sadly not a desert empanada
just spinach empanada
Anyone here play 20mtd
They can be! We can be funny, at least
By tim hortans I assume you mean the chain/franchise
Also to assume a chains coffee is better than an entire country's is kinda rude
I have no idea what Tim Hortons is and at this point I'm too afraid to ask
I dunno either tbh
I just know it's got something to do with coffee based on context clues
I was also gonna say that Melbourne's coffee culture is notoriously strong
Well, I mean. Some North American breakfasts are considered desserts over here lmao
also i was partially joking
waffles and pancakes?
How the USA took European food and turned it into morning dessert.

Waffles, pancakes, crepes etc
Canadian food always goes hard
Can't really tell that easily without tone indicators tbh
haha, i dont usually eat breakfeast, and if i do its usually just poato pancakes or something
Poutine! I'm luckily enough to have access to vegan poutine here in Australia
ive never been able to have poutine.
Worm
never seen a vegatarian option
I think my canadian-aussie buddy hasn't had any either
Yoooo, I'm jelly
i have to go to sleep but my rash is really bad right now
It's so good! Australia is decent for a variety of food too
Ye indeed ^-^
I'm trying to broaden my horizons of vegan foods more
im pescatarian :/
Well vegan desserts are always a safe bet I've found
Nice
I'm very much not vegan or vegetarian, I just like food so trying what's out there appeals to me
Hmm back to work shortly but I'm always down for a chat about food
in australia do you have any good mexican pastrys or tacos
I'm on the end of the spectrum where I'm experimenting with more meat food after eating vegetarian and vegan for so long
Yes but a lot is texmex and the really good restaurants carry decent hibiscus tea
hibiscus tea is amazing
texmex tacos are really good
though youre missing out on mexican street food
churros, mexican street fried rice, ect
well ill try to sleep

Sambal?
I usually eat it as is
Thats good too
It's always the food on the go for me, so having sambal on the other hand feels weird
War thunder players leaked classified military documents for the 8th time
Wut
Yes
Does anybody else absolutely hate sharing
Like food or space or some items I mean
It increases your street cred and makes you powerful 
ah
🥰man made horrors beyond wolf comprehension🥰
Hi there! I hope everyone is doing well!
Good day to yas
I'm doing well! just checking my emails n stuff before getting on w my day! gonna eat leftovers so i dont need to cook just yet.
how about you?
Uhm, hi guys
they are! i have revuelto de gramajo waiting for me in the kitchen
I'm from Opera GX, the gaming browser, and would like to get into contact with someone from Supergiant for a collaboration
You can use https://www.supergiantgames.com/contact/ to contact them
Supergiant Games is a small independent game development studio in San Francisco, known for its award-winning titles Hades, Pyre, Transistor, and Bastion.
I had hoped Discord would be faster 
Didn't know opera gx officials were chill like that 🤝
I'm doing fine
thats great 👍
I'm drinking tea in large amounts and my hoodie is pink so I guess that could counts
Although it's not wednesday atm here 😔
anymore
😔
why pink
Also I congratulate everyone with the day of the breakthrough of the Leningrad blockade
Everyone who's currently in January 18th anyway
because on wednesday’s we wear pink?
Very logical and simple innit
have you not watched mean girls
nope
you should watch it it’s iconic
More civilians died in the blockade of Leningrad than in bombings of Hamburg, Dresden, Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined, over a million civilian deaths, 650 thousands of them are from starvation. Around a million soldiers died defending the city.
Evening January 18th the soldiers outside the blockade finally broke through and met the defenders of the city, around midnight same day the citizens received the message about the blockade being broken through the radio.
oh mean girls is great
im drinking water infused with cinnamon does that count?
yes
Become 10% tea like me
but if youre a dry husk then youre no longer smooth
not a smooth criminal any longer
speaking of tea
has anyone had cloudy tea lately or is that just a me problem
like, the teabag just makes the tea kinda foam a bit
I'm basically diet soda jerkey
Im allergic to work
That's probably it, the symptoms happened just as I got to work
Ikr
I'm wearing a long sleeves rn
I almost never wear long sleeves
it feels like I'm in my pajamas

Long sleeves are cool
Lmao wrong server
Help
I've found a subgenre
that is delightfully blursed
and I need to share it
Oh it's the artist that made the my reaction to this information babababababa song
of course it's cruel angel's thesis
The perfect combination of source material and cover style
@narrow parcel the plot was spread too thin while also being rather rushed, downtime between gameplay segments is a bit worse than in GOW2018, felt more handhold-y than 2018 since you were essentially forced to stick to the main quest area, said plot also felt a bit poorly paced when it did happen, characters didn't feel as compelling aside from the returning ones, heimdall and thor to a degree, atreus' dialouge felt a bit too marvel-y compared to the first game
can't believe I'm saying this but
ragnarok legit feels like it'd be a much better experience as a movie or a tv show, rather than a game
plot wise I mean
Okay, I see where you're coming from even though I don't agree with you. I could definitely see Ragnorok as a tv show.
I think the second game was way bigger than the first and therefore it lost what made it appeal to you while there also being new things that just didn't rub u the right way.
Fair assessment?
@nimble phoenix
needlessly bigger, yeah
as in
bigger in the wrong places
doing all the sidequests meant that the main plot had a LOT of downtime, which felt weirdly punishing for people who want to experience the entire game
on top of that
||ragnarok itself is hella rushed, with most of it happening at the end of the game, rather than being the main focus of it, which felt super weird||
new walkman!
@craggy glen Nah, high guardian spice still claps she hulk
But velma's still worse
my cousin is a huge marvel nerd and tried to convince me she hulk was good
i knew he was lying when i saw the clip of her and megan thee stalion
BRUH
he is kicked from the marvel fan club
He was a plant.
i GREW UP with marvel and i fr just hate it now
ant-man 3 looks decent
black adam gave me more entertainment than antything marvel has made in years
black adam had crappy writing though, with worst villain ever
i cant deny that, but alteast it wasnt trying to fill my head with crap about billions of multiverses
the plot was super basic
how anyone got paid to write that
he's dumb
Was wondering
if dude saw adam as a fix all along why lock him up
i mean they nerfed him but im happy i atleast saw him on screen in some capacity cause hes one of my favorite comic characters
he also stood in place not doing anything for a minute to be easily killed
^
Fair enough tho.
yea that i still cant wrap my ahead around why they did
I'm glad they haven't trashed spoidermans yet.
Sad about Wanda tho, she was one of my faves
i want more moon knight and they better not ruin it
moon knight and spider man are the only marvel thing that havent really dissapointed me
and kinda black panther
I heard they leaned a bit too far in the new female black panther but I hope it isn'y just virtue signal the whole movie
i say partly bc it took up way too much time
that and the writing was kinda meh
as to be expected from marvel rn
Ye
the only show/movie i can say im hyped for is the last of us
maybe #tv-and-movies?
fr
I now have a favorite chess player, Eline Roebers
Kinda sad tho, she's as old as me yet an International Master and I'm not 😔
Damn rly?
Send pics?
Huh?
Of the person, or I could just look them up, but I'm busy with a run.
Ah, that's wild.
She is currently playing in the tata steel tournament
Won against a grandmaster rated 300 points higher than her
Also Magnus Carlsen is playing in it as well and he just lost two games in a row
He only lost twice last year and this year he lost twice already and it's only the start of the year
do you think she can beat Andrew Tate
A nice cozy rainy night tonight 🌧️
Given that andrew tate ain't a chess player at the level of Eline Roebers I'd say she'd win hands down
i am about to make bad 12 am decisions
those being spending my time and money into finding an eden muppets toy from the 90s hah
one day id love to get an actual puppet replica
Call it 12 am investments
Me: I don't like documentaries
Me: Now if you'll excuse me I have a three hour youtube video to watch about a videogame
Even I can beat Andrew Tate
mood
I like documentaries
documentaries are good
okaat=
I am trying to type with my new split keyboard but its challenging
well, he's not that good
he says he's around 1800 but his chess.com rating is usually around 1600
ortholinear apparently is not my best'
Why would you even bring up him
It's like in a judo discussion bringing up putin
finally started working on mel again
her leg armor is very weird but its working
it's 8 AM, in an hour there's a reserved group of 20-30 people coming. Due to some scheduling issue, I can't put 3 people in the morning to alleviate the load. Putting one in a long shift is an option but tomorrow is CNY, everybody's getting long shift tomorrow. So I bit the bullet, got me and a senior barista to handle the reserved. It's calm before the storm. 
o7
ayyy, they have a runner to keep order. Makes our job somewhat lighter.
Whats most popular on the menu?
currently americano
on daily basis
it used to be brown sugar latte, cause A. it was popular, B. cheaper than a regular latte. We raised the price cause it doesn't have much profit from it, americano is now the cheapest coffee.
Awesome
Brown sugar > normal sugar
Oh yeah? My palm sugar beats your brown sugar!
Never seen palm sugar but buckwheat honey tops
Does anybody else play chess
the reserved group went better than expected 
not the first time they booked
but my fear was other customers that flooded in
we had 3 people in the bar but we were wacked 
What kind of group were they
life insurance... community?
they booked with us several times
but I have no clue what they are 
or what they do
They just play dota together
lol
actually
there's a group that went to our place to play TCG monthly
pokemon
yugioh
it's same group
Ooh sounds fun
there's also one that made a subway surfer competition 
they just came in, fortunately 2nd floor was empty
said they'll take em
and queue 2 hours of screaming
So how much is 1 americano? 50k idr?
27K
hey late night sgg!
well late here, for a lot of people i bet they're just waking up
hanging out in the death stranding private room :3
Sometimes you just wanna see Reedus listen to the music player lel
Anyways it's like 12 AM for me lol
oops not AM actually PM
im too european for these 💀
it's the bright time of day kinda 12
literally all my watches are set to 24h format
i only know eurotime as i have a friend in the netherlands
so my brain has just equated that netherlands = opposite of my time
except daylights savings made that a little funny but its only an hour off
it's 11 pm for me!
12 hour format is unfortunately embedded in my brain but I feel like 24h seems to be just like better lol
saturday?
yep
ahh okay
yeah its friday for me
well, saturday now
this is the one hour of the day we're in the same day actually!
hooray!
it's very rare to run into people who are in front of me in timezone
honestly just finding another kiwi is like a cause for celebration
ive never found anyone behind me

I wish freud was alive so we could dunk on him even harder
beefing with dead people
i don’t
i am perfectly fine with him being long dead
‘beefing with dead people’ works for me lmao
He was specifically about incest tho so not really
The internet offspring of the oedipical complex is funny
Tell me the "i want mommy gf" mf's didn't naturally evolve from such oedipical tendencies but more tamed to the modern world
everytime I see that type of posts I can only think about the meme of "he can't keep getting away with this"
It literally is oedipical complex except they cant just murder their dad and marry their actual mom so the next best thing is finding someone non blood related that acts and looks like a mother
I find it so funny
And the best part they dont even know it
I find it cursed but yeah it happens
Mfw I just overanalyzed a trivial thing on the internet once again
I am absolutely sure it stems not from the oedipus complex but from people not receiving enough parental love, care, and attention as kid, therefore not being fully emotionally developed and wanting someone to care for them rather than a balanced relationship
Idk brah I just like to think that deep down it's really just this
I think that psychoanalysis is waaaaay too disassembled by now, even if you can find similar cases
The first mention of the oedipus complex this is a direct quote from freud's book:
"When after this he can no longer maintain the doubt which makes his parents an exception to the universal and odious norms of sexual activity, he tells himself with cynical logic that the difference between his mother and a wh*re is not after all so very great, since basically they do the same thing. The enlightening information he has received has in fact awakened the memory-traces of the impressions and wishes of his early infancy, and these have led to a reactivation in him of certain mental impulses. He begins to desire his mother herself in the sense with which he has recently become acquainted, and to hate his father anew as a rival who stands in the way of this wish; he comes, as we say, under the dominance of the Oedipus complex. He does not forgive his mother for having granted the favour of sexual intercourse not to himself but to his father, and he regards it as an act of unfaithfulness."
It's not at all related to the mommy kink

Ofc that's subjective, but it means that you have to chip away at immense health while dodging on e hit k.o.s hundreds of times when you're perfectly matched level wise with the boss.

dyno deletes too many links at once so it’s a pretty good safety measure
This is a video that discusses an extremely harmful forum that encourages suicide that has an abbreviation SS, I would strongly advise anyone using the forum to watch this video and anyone else to watch it for awareness on the topic. The forum discourages seeking help so please share the video as there may be people using the forum who are hiding their mental health crises because they believe reaching out is pointless and will be detrimental. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C3y6SsGAWks
I recently watched one of my followers being encouraged and coached to die on a toxic site that seeks to maximising the likelihood that its members end their own lives. In this video, I detail why this site is so destructive, why people should not give it life by participating on it and why I believe it should ultimately be made illegal.
Apolog...
do people in other countries not associate "SS" with Schutzstaffel
I don’t
weird
I mean we are one of the countries that interacted with the third reich the most
But like it's such an organization
It's like KKK but worse and bigger and state supported how can anyone not remember it
Yeah no i don’t really

Girl....not me getting yet ANOTHER on the house Starbucks order again. And it's 9 dollars this time. And it's from the same place

I could probably climb my house
Hot take: having your consciousness distorted is a bad thing
what does it mean to have your consciousness distorted?
So lately I've been watching Greek myth videos on YouTube (wonder why), and now the algorithm recommends more of them, except they are disgustingly AI generated
Like, the voice is obviously text to speech
The script is like a readout of Wikipedia, incohesive
And the video itself is a quick non stop slew of images from Google images that are barely on topic and mostly AI generated images of the subject matter, except they are obviously ai generated therefore soulless and barely on topic

Anybody got tips on how to make friends outside of school..?
Any drugs including alcohol and coffee, any worship, the way some people describe crushes and alike I mean like "when I'm around them I lose my head", any biases, any things like being horny, anything that makes you not entirely the person you are but not in the changing and learning sense
Libraries often have age targeted groups for interests like games, reading, programming, anime etc
Certain museums also have events, showcases and workshops for teens
And of course- discord servers for online friends
Do you think the library thing would be on a schedule and you just drop in or sign up online?
Oh I can just check
I’ll look into it thanks
Also, depending on the country, some local government bodies have spaces and events specifically for teens and young adilts. Eg there's a youth creator space in my city
Some youth mental health spaces also have ongoing groups and events like group sports and fitness and painting
I should visit my local library
Not that I need anything in it I can download any book in 5 minutes but like it's 7th largest in the world it would rad to just look how it is inside it

How's the back pain going?
Wait that sounded like it was my age
But my back pain is doing fine it comes out once a month maybe
My age is the logarithm of 2.6398877e29 to the base 69
I'm not computing that
pretty young for a God
You don't say
What cultures should I steal ornaments from for my gd level deco
Hi
What game is more fun for you
Ff7 remake or spider-man 2018
Uhh this is general
My back pain has been severely lessened since I started powerlifting, Ironically.
Well how about that
This is me just trying to prostelytize
It's only natural
Just more incentive to work out
Your back has gotten stronger
Soon back pains will be your back gains 💪
And defeated the pain in epic battle
(proper) deadlifts make (most) back pain dead!
Not going to the gym might reward you with atrophy but going to the gym gives you hypertrophy
but going to the gym for competition gives you trophy
Gym has a lot of nasty bacterias
Just like our phones
Not even close
Dumbells are basically a party for the nastiest stuff
Not to mention the sweat of hundreds of people on different machines
going to the gym is like a risky vaccination
just don’t lick surfaces that other people touch and you will be ok
exercise your immune system 🏋️
a nice staph infection every other quarter is good for the immune system.
don't want it getting too full of itself
now I"m wondering why our barbells are nickel plated instead of copper brass or silver
Hmm
physical therapy is also pretty good for back pain
I would suggest stretching
I eventually want to start working out and such but the gym is pretty far away
With every coat of paint i get slightly better at drawing these cursed arm bones
why are they LIKE THAT
It’s very obviously paint but hopefully with a couple more costs and lights itl look more like bones
so that you can twist your arm
have you considered getting fake bones and like, attaching them to the sleeve in roughly the right location? maybe that would look good
sounds rather uncomfortable and bulky though
Hm

Focus Group Question: Which is more amusing, "Sorry I erased your boyfriend from existance" or "sorry I erased your boyfriend from the timeline"
second one imo
second
Second one better. Leads one to think about other timelines
it kind of depends on context too
The context is I'm going to put it on flyers with a small paragraph underneath and then put them up around my neighborhood
to make people's lives a little more interesting
currently the paragraph is "I’m sorry to not tell you in person. I know you won’t have remembered him, heck you might even have a different boyfriend; I’ve been too afraid to check. I just needed to say this because I was the one that caused the accident at the lab. He wasn’t even supposed to be there. He was really cool."
big "john dies at the end" vibes
but the second one works better in this context imo
Yeah no id go with second
the only flyers in my neighborhood are golden doodle puppy advertisements
which is. so many red flags
you should put up some surreal flyers yourself
"They told me you wouldn't read this"
Confusing tourists is not only fun but morally correct.
First one means murder to me

Hades X Dead Cells should be real

I don't like dreaming for me it's like watching a tv show from the middle of the third season that I know nothing about and often it's not the genre I like and it only shows like episodes 7,8,9,15 and then 4 from the next season
I never know if i dreamed at all. Don't remember a thing
i don't really get nightmares anymore but my dreams are very weird
I haven't had what I would describe as a nightmare in forever
but I do have bad dreams, occasionally
I get dreams that are like, uncomfortable, but not in a nightmare way, more in a tv series "deep" episode way
Last time I had a nightmare has to be at least ten years ago

Hi
Pedro :Pedro:
do any of you play valorant?
Hello everybody! this is my first message here. I didn't even realize that this place existed until the announcement for HadesII even though I had been playing and enjoying Hades for a while. I'm VERY excited for the sequel and I'm working on a cosplay for Melinoë, would #fan-works #art or #self-promotion be the most appropriate channel to share updates?
One Mel cosplayer who talks about it here posts cosplay stuff to this channel, I think
okay, thank you, I'll do a quick search through the history. It's so cool that someone else is also doing this!
you guys have no idea how hard i am about to go as goth jester!!
i got the outfit together so im going to get something to drink and start painting myself blue 👀
heck yeah!
i love goth jester ‼️
You all know what's the next best thing to metal
Lady Gaga. Unironically.
im going to stare at a picture of talesin and hopefully his gothness will bless me
checks out
Im having a panic attack
I just came out to my asian parents
They half accepted it
ish?
they basically said
Do not marry a man if he isnt filthy rich
And “always prioritize the girls”
But they did say several times that “its ok to like boys/girls”
But i think theyre leaning towards the “not accepting” side
Oh god
HELP ME
Do you need to talk about it?
I'm new here, but I've gone through this and can understand ^^'
You're welcome to talk about it in this channel, and if you want to share images then #fan-works is probably the best for that 
ok, so
i dunno where to post this since i spend 99% of my time here in the dank, dark cave that is known as #video-games and rarely come out of there 
but....

Does anybody else think languages became too simplified
Older versions are way more expressive and comfortable to use
if they have, that's better for global communication
Bahasa borrowed a lot of things from Dutch, including pronunciation of OE as U. I don't know about you but I prefer writing U over OE any day. 
...not that I write a lot nowadays 
Flowery language is cool for novels or poetry. And that's where we keep them.
If you have to do that when talking with cashiers....in a queue
Or calling the firefighters for emergency...
Or greeting your neighbour when you pass them...
Or "A fine day sir. Mayhap I could make an inquiry as to the whereabouts of the, pardon me, seats of ease? Pray, be brief if you would"
"Why evening, Sir. I apologize for intruding your lovely day, unfortunately I bare terrible news. Old Poitier has been stabbed by a devilish creature O' yonder neighbourhood!"
Oh dear lord, but that is simply dreadful
Awfully dreadful, Sir. Imagine crossing the bridge before seeing your daughter in her wedding gown. sigh Good man had been talking about it for weeks...
Well it's not really longer to say tbh
But I'm not necessarily talking about the flowery language
Idk maybe that's not exactly the case with english I still haven't read Shakespeare but like in russian in last several centuries many things has simplified for the worse like singular they has been lost many words that describe some feelings or many general use words like very general the "the" general use tier words they just been lost nobody uses them anymore
singular they?
Yeah russian doesn't have it anymore we used it just in the last century but now we don't
what is meant by singular they
Like you can refer to a person as she he they to single person that's called singular
Do you know what does singular mean?
Singular they, along with its inflected or derivative forms, them, their, theirs and themselves (or themself), is a gender-neutral third-person pronoun. It typically occurs with an unspecified antecedent, in sentences such as:
"Somebody left their umbrella in the office. Could you please let them know where they can get it?"
"The patient should...
Yonder neighbourhood has truly gone to the dogs, much as it pains me to say. So I told him, poor old Poitier but alas! Alas!
Now where was I, oh yes where might I find the powder room?
Archaism? There are some cool words. Maybe ppl at the time thought they were not cool so stopped using them! Imagine few hundred years later ppl are gonna call our cringe meme words 'literary/ archaic" lmao
The etymology is disturbing lol
A mooncalf (or moon-calf) is a monstrous birth, the abortive fetus of a cow or other farm animal. The term was occasionally applied to an abortive human fetus
Maybe thats why its not cool anymore
Oh I thought it was just a moon calf like a calf from moon or something that's grim
there was a time here when people expressed disrespect for somebody by calling them "abortion victim", that was pretty long ago
in a way that makes sense
but still
I'm a victim of non abortion I was born against my will
also, yesterday i had a chance to casually listen to a modern remake of a really old song, more than a century old, and i have to say, either many words from that era sound much better and smoother in a poetry, songs in particular, or it's just people had more options with more vowels to pick from, so that excessive consonants won't meddle with the singer's articulation
dam, now am gettin flowery too
One of the things I love about russian is that I can just switch the words around in sentences in almost any way possible without changing any of them
I feel like this line of thinking, at least as far as US english is concerned, comes from Nostalgia and an inability or unwillingness to examine how language has evolved in the past couple decades.
idk how us english was before so can't really say anything about it
"things used to be better before" is a standard conservative rallying cry in every country and language.
so yeah, there are people who use this argument about english 😛
aaaanywho
what does 😛 mean
that's me trying to express "being cheeky" or "this statement was made in a good faith attempt at humor or levity"
I'm trying not to accuse you of being conservative by making a similar statement just saying that a lot of people say the same thing about english
ok
is the dropping of articles a recent russian thing?
what are good books that use older english
wdym by recent
lets say since world war 2
we always did it we don't have articles and never had
also it really depends on how you classify older english
because I could tell you to go read some chaucer
which I actually do not suggest
russian has enough stuff to complicate things more than necessary
Is Beowulf originally in some form of English?
Shakespeare is generally considered the pinnacle of easilly accessible english lit.
well like 15th-18th century I guess at least that what would I say for russian
but like not using stuff like "посему" only makes it more complicated and less comfortable and less alive
why does 😛 look so eerie
¯_(ツ)_/¯
speaking of, i find it hard to differ when people in english use word "why" to ask about cause or about reason
why?
more like ten
that's the cause
and reason is to know what interests asiking person, what they want to expect
not sure though but i can remember three and i think there's more
i can come up with at least 5 informal variations, and around two swear variations
a kind of why one will use to shout in the darkness in the suburban wastes
To be fair, "how did this happen?" implies more of the cause (at least in my experience with American dialect English) whereas "why did this happen?" while it could be both cause and reason, is more emotionally charged when asked as a cause.
I can come up with like 5 swear variations
you know what's funny
and generate infinitely more if without word limit
amogus
is I've been looking for books to suggest to @mossy trail for english classics and I keep on going, "wait, wasn't that book considered pulpy and uninteresting at the time?
yes, pulpy is badf
like, low brow stuff
easily produced
mass market media
comes from the description of the low quality paper they were originally printed on
I can name at least a dozen of russian classic writers even not books that all are considered close to masterpieces
but were they considered close to masterpieces when they were produced?
absolutely
I think at least I don't know about all
but about those I know they were famous and loved
some things just pass the trials by the time better than others
especially Alexander "Our Everything" Pushkin
like, i used to think, why is school literature program include certain most well-known writers and poets, and then there are tons of books in every library and in most homes
written by unknown names about pretty vague political things
nowadays they either gather dust or end in libraries again
So anyhow, books that are considered valuable today from the 19th century but that I have no Idea about their original reception or level of complexity by their original standards are: Frankenstein(original text), a Tale of two cities, and Wuthering heights are what comes to mind
there are at the very least few hundred books in every flat my family owns
also btw
i've thought recently, when talking about mass book products of 90s, mostly detective and romantic stories
who are we to judge, scrolling through reddits and stuff, watching dum memes
we have rights to judge
we are people with taste
GAHD WHY ISN'T THERE A SMUG OR TROLL EMOJI HERE
Consideration should be taken for context, hell I find it hard to read anything pre-2016 these days because it just so violently changed political commentary

it's too cute to be troll smug emoji

read uhhh averchenko
you gonna learn russian?
maybe ¯_(ツ)_/¯
im rootin for ya
I know a few curse words and how to say "lets go" from playing dota
also Hi, yes, no, and "cheers"
you know, the important stuff
salut' or ura cheers
salut
'
I can even transliterate a few cyrillic into roman counterparts but that's mostly due to a background of greek math cymbols and being in a fraternity
I should go to the protests today
Ooh, I even have some white cardboard I could use for a sign
stay safe there, don't get arrested
"And Boromir smiled, overcoming the death" (Muraviev & Kistyakovsky)
"A shadow of the smile crossed pale, without a little bit of a blood, Boromir's face" (Grigorieva & Grushetsky)
"A weak smile have touched Boromir's lips" (Kamenkovich & Karrik)
"Boromir smiled." (Original)
They should arrest me it'd be great, I have resources to make their lives miserable if they arrest me
ooh
neat
I mean, those resources are/could be better spent elsewhere
here authorities have resources to make life of protestants and their families miserable for just a banner
especially now
TBH you gotta respect the guy just for spearheading the rapid reshaping of the whole damn language.
Pre-Pushkin Russian is markedly different from literary language used after his untimely demise
all of the russians love him immensely
Ehhh
A lot of people find his works grating because they were forced to churn through them in highschool
But that has nothing to do with the works themselves, just peoples' impressions and preconceptions of the works
nah they forgot about that
you won't find a person over 25 who doesn't say only good things about him
below 25 it's gonna vary
I mean, yeah, but his work makes for fine re-reading material once you're out of uni
Hence the change in attitude
I personally prefer the pre pushkin russian
That's valid
Ain't no way anybody considers harry potter geeky
It's the 'mainstream geek' these days
Still geeky, just not really 'out there' anymore
geeky? nah. insanely transphobic inherently? god damn right
Geekiness contests are overrated
And racist, and antisemitic, and idk if it's explicitly ableist but everything else Rowling wrote was so I'm assuming it is
Ableist?
Bigotry towards the disabled
She also compared the Scottish independence movement to the Nazis once iirc
'cause really when we talked about her in class the teacher was always like "She is a wonderful person who help the others"
What the actual duck?
Did you get a mystery ping too?
Uh isn't antisemitic already under racist umbrella
My mom be like:
My family too unfortunately
Depends on who you ask. It's complicated, to my understanding.
lol, no she isn't
all she said is some very valid and accurate points about women's sports and dumb twitter went wild as usual
and I don't even care about her btw
nah, she said way more than that. really doubled down
ironic that here Hogwarts Legacy is basically a "destructive product" bc of, i quote, "positive depiction of persons with non-traditional sexual orientation, e.g. trans and non-binary, which contradicts traditional russian family values and may be harmful to minors' mental health"
you know, media here is flooded by this scrap
and at the same time is considered boycotted in the whole normal world bc of totally opposite
and even more ironic that WB blocked all the license keys, even already given to distributors, from activating in russia and Belarus
these days im just too tired to hate somebody
It's kinda wild how they managed to make a game that is not hateful enough to some and much too hateful to others at the same time, isn't it?
Like, how do you even thread that needle so finely?
Ugh.
try to market to everyone and you market to no one
me too we should go find the devilish creature and stop them
If you don't care and don't know then don't talk. https://www.glaad.org/gap/jk-rowling
—Tweeted “Big love to you xxx” to Caroline Farrow, an anti-trans, anti-gay, and anti-abortion activist after Farrow complained of “having had my life invaded and dominated by insane trans rights activists.” According to PinkNews, Farrow blamed LGBT+ people when she was barred from travelling to the US, was served an injunction over “abusive twee...
Also @mossy trail sick entrapta pfp
Did you really just link an article from a biased lgbt website as your argument?
All I see there is "falsely claimed" but I don't see any proofs
What's next, will you send me PETA article to prove some point about veganism?
We're not going to go down this road, because I can see that it won't end well.
That's a bad faith response to educating someone who claims they don't have a stake in the matter
I'm sure it would, and I appreciate where you're coming from, but this really isn't the place

What I will say, though, is that someone from outside an affected group has no right to decide what does or does not constitute harms toward them. In this case it's quite clear how the trans community feels about JK Rowling, and she doesn't need random people in a video game discord server to defend her.
I would remind everyone that this is a diverse community. We endeavor to create a welcoming environment, and expect our community members to avoid inflammatory topics
Well it's being hostile towards a group of people based on their race so it's racism nothing's complicated about it, or am I missing something
Thanks! I really like it

my fav emoji on discord!
My favorite emoji on discord is a blurred low resolution trollface

The fact they're an ethnoreligious group, and the specific extensive hatred towards them going back over 2000 years, to my limited understanding
Well that doesn't make it not racism
Is it saying mrmrmmrmrmrmrmrm
🐱?
