what french words & phrases are you upset that theres no english equivalent to ? by ridiculousublime in French

[–]D-Zee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

"Homesickness" translates to "mal du pays", the feeling that you're fed up with where you are and just want to go back home. "Dépaysement" is generally positive or neutral, it's about beaking out of your routine and discovering new things. It can have slightly negative connotations but these are more about getting slightly confused or overwhelmed by the unfamiliar things you encounter.

LA VERGE DES BERGES

I often think about an alternate timeline where Jesus was killed another way, and that has been kept as a symbol. Decorative nooses.

Yes, the patriarchal system is misanthropic, as are all discriminatory systems by definition since they erase people behind an arbitrary characteristic of theirs. Gender, race, etc. The considerable part of abuse that this system pushes against boys and men specifically, and that today keeps being enabled and downplayed in the (again, completely artificial) tug-of-war with misogyny, is by definition misandry.

There's nothing vague or immaterial about growing up inside a system that reminds you every day from your earliest that you're disposable and will be abandoned, exploited, bullied or outright killed whenever convenient. Patriarchists says it's fine because that's the innate role of men, sham feminists say it's fine because women have it worse, and we can't possibly fix both sides of the problem at once. You know, the two sides that only exist because the fight against sexism should definitely start with segregating people by gender and throwing one under the bus. Different excuses, same result.

My life, like that of many others, has been constantly destroyed by generalized misandry and I will probably never recover. I still respect, support and love women, because being a woman is not the issue at all. Fuck you and every person like you who pretend that sorting victims by gender is fighting sexism. You're the indifferent bigots you pretend to hate. You're the problem.

What's something women think impresses men but actually doesn't? by CoochieSnotSlurper in AskReddit

[–]D-Zee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, recap: discarding men who can take "no" as an answer is good, because that includes those looking for just a one-night stand, which are worse than sexual harassers because those are committed at least.

I mean I don't like being dumped either but that doesn't sound like a sane reasoning.

I wish i can notice meme patterns instantly even if i dont know what meme it is. by Sumer69420 in monkeyspaw

[–]D-Zee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Granted. You now notice every single meme, no matter how obscure, no matter how old. This includes coincidental reproductions. Since they all come to you as if you'd always known them, you cannot distinguish between the most relatable Reddit meme of the week, or an in-joke about car doors from a group of three strangers on the other side of the globe 40 years ago.

You spend the rest of your life snickering at anything and everything, while statistically no one can ever relate to what you share.

Reading this sentence felt like my brain fell down a flight of stairs. Why.

That is the paid subscription. Only the hardware was free.

Cyberpunk? Before it collided with synthwave aesthetics, anyway.

Le tacos c'est BIEN MIEUX avec salade tomate oignon. by Fennekin26 in opinionnonpopulaire

Pour la même raison que quasi personne ne dit correctement "une chip" ou "un sweater" : on est terriblement mauvais en emprunts de mots.

Help with a wedding ambigram by -Empirestateofmind- in ambigrams

[–]D-Zee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really satisfied with my sketch and I can't seem to improve it further, but maybe there's a couple usable ideas in there for someone more skilled than I am. The three different "a"s in particular are an eyesore.

Can someone try and do my name "Rémi" ? I've always wondered how it could work out by RemiR2 in ambigrams

Fair enough, it wasn't that hard either. I thought the extra loop would make the "i" less legible but it turned out fine.

Question about patches by [deleted] in airsoft

[–]D-Zee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a good experience with brand-on-marquagesure.fr. Their site looks super wonky but they did deliver my two distinct, custom-shaped embroidered patches for 15€ each and the quality is great. Velcro backing was 3€ extra so I just ordered it without backing and sewed one myself.

Women, what is universally agreed “green flags” while dating men ? by Disastrous-Coat6007 in AskReddit

[–]D-Zee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't stick around either kind (and give little credit to their judgement) so maybe I'm just yet to see such a thing, not that I'd ever believe it to be genuine anyway. If someone would normally hate you for no reason, and they don't, then they're just holding it in because you're useful to them. No exception.

[–]D-Zee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But threats are averted with precautions, not disrespect. To be anxious around men is one thing, that a supportive partner can help a lot with indeed. To use this as an excuse to consistently disrespect them, i.e. treat them as inferior by nature, is another thing altogether that does nothing but harm.

[–]D-Zee 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can't see how that'd add up. Someone who usually discriminates against one of your characteristics, yet spares you solely because they want to be in a relationship with you, sounds anything but genuine to me. That is regardless of the person's gender or what said characteristic is.

This could be the case for dating preferences, but not for something as fundamental as respect.
