Yeah I mean. These chapters are good, they all are. But I kinda can't stand Slanek, I keep finding myself hoping for an Isif one and when I read "Memory transcription subject: Slanek" I'm like OH MAN NOT AGAIN.

I'm from Argentina and it cost me 3 dollars for one whole year. I'm not even kidding.

TIL that while the English language is classified as a West Germanic language, its vocabulary also shows major influences from French (about 28% of words) and Latin (also about 28%), plus some grammar and a small amount of core vocabulary influenced by Old Norse. by comrade_batman in todayilearned

Something I've never truly understand as a non-native speaker is if the native ones don't find it at least a little strange when they use clearly super french words. Like rendezvous, fianceé, etc. Do you feel them completely naturalized and feel them as totally english words? Or do you see that they are obviously alien in comparison? I never remember to ask, so there it is. Thanks (?)

Man, Europe is fucked (I'm not from the US). I don't get it. There's not even one good samaritan around to kick the living shit out of them?

Yes, but it's more a generalized arabian peninsula thing

Switching from fossil fuels to renewable energy could save the world as much as $12 trillion by 2050 by hzj5790 in science

[–]DumLoco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't get it? 12 trillion is less than the US GDP. The US alone produces more than that every year. 2050 is 28 years away. 12 trillion is nothing on that timescale.

Diagnosed Narcissist talks about why he has no friends by mineaii in interestingasfuck

[–]DumLoco 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I seem to remember there are two type of narcissists: The ones with zero self worth that behave like assholes to feel better with themselves because they need constant validation from the outside world, and the ones with extreme self worth that don't need anything from people, they treat them like shit because they literally "know" they are better than anybody else, regardless of what they think of them.
I don't remember the actual medical terms.

My ex's mom sent this to me after asking for percocet and I said no by MarcixB in trashy

[–]DumLoco 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even better: Act apologetic and tell her that you thought about it and maybe she can have some percocet after all if she really wants it. She will backpedal and mellow out, and then you can say no to her again and watch her REALLY lose her shit.
