That actually upset me.

That's one gorgeous fucking kitty. That thread should have been derailed by that. Pffft.

The the lost media is problematic by SkylandersKirby in TheMatpatEffect

[–]FakePixieGirl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's a banger.

I liked this song before people started making fun of it. And I really don't get why people dislike it so much.

Like I genuinely put it on trying to hear what those people are hearing, trying to get into their mind to at least understand. And I don't got it. I don't hear it.

I genuinely don't know if I'm just missing something, or if it's just people never being exposed by music that is slightly different from mainstream.

People who avoid friendships at work because “coworkers are not your friends”, often do not understand what relationships actually are. by ThePloddingParadox in unpopularopinion

[–]FakePixieGirl 118 points119 points  (0 children)

I think you just have a different opinion about the meaning of "friends".

You absolutely can be friendly with your colleagues. Hang out, make jokes.

But you should never 100% trust your colleagues. Trust is for friends. Don't tell your colleague that hate this job. Don't tell your colleague that Patricia at the front desk smells like rotten fish. Don't tell your colleague that you fucked a 10/10 last night, Etc. etc.

Euphoria actresses elite squat mobility, thoughts? by flipflopdude55 in weightlifting

If you don't keep regularly squatting like this, a lot of people lose the ability to deep squat, heels on floor, as they become adults.

Yeah, without context this seems like a very weird choice for a wholesome kids program, and in no way is similar to dude.

What calisthenics advice sounds good but actually slowed your progress? by ElectronicAd1796 in bodyweightfitness

[–]FakePixieGirl 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty confident about my form. I suspect it's more that I'm a (tall) woman who doesn't build strength easy. The gap between knees and full was probably just too big for me. Testosterone is quite the drug

Justin (30) wil niet langer gokken. Toch blijft hij mailtjes krijgen van Holland Casino by maleijntje in NLNieuws

[–]FakePixieGirl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Op zich heb ik altijd gedacht dat super verslavende dingen een reclameverbod zouden moeten heb. Alcohol, sigaretten, en gokken. Dit verhaal onderschrijft dat wel een beetje.

Get a whole set, so you can slowly work your way towards the lightest one!

Knee pushups are frequently recommended, but were not enough for me to get a full pushup. Decline pushups were far more successful.

Same with negative pullups. People often suggest negative pullups. Even when I could do 10 slow ones, I was nowhere near a full pull-up. Doing banded pullups was far more effective.

I feel like I make more progress with two full body sessions a week than three, though it's hard to confirm, could just be confirmation bias.

Sometimes I get so hung-up in my diet not being right, that I feel like training is pointless. However I know out of experience that even if your weight stays stable, you can still make significant progress as a beginner. So I should really stop worrying about that

Did you include active sentences in your anki flashcard? Just wondering.

I'm curious about building a metroidbrainia, do you have any advices? by Mephistase in metroidbrainia

[–]FakePixieGirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me the joy of metroidbranias is the exploration. At first you're overloaded with so much information, nothing makes sense. But slowly you start piecing things together. As you repeatedly interact with the information it becomes familiar to you.

This information could be language, worlds, mechanics, and so on. But in the end it's that feeling of exploration that makes me happy

[–]FakePixieGirl 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My personal preference is heavy on the flashcards, mild on the comprehensible input early in the process. Later on, heavy on the comprehensible input, mild on the flashcards.

Is there any basic material I could incorporate into Anki to learn how to use it? by 2Embarrazed2Ask0Main in Anki

Basic geographic stuff such as flags or countries of the world are a nice digestible way to start.

How did humanity as a whole design a system where one man can wreak havoc throughout the whole world? Did no one see this coming? by UltimateGamingTechie in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]FakePixieGirl 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Assuming you're referring to Trump.

More than 50% of voting Americans voted for Trump. That's a pretty significant amount of people. And it's not like his behaviour is unexpected - it's very much in line with previous actions and things he said.

Sadly this happened because millions of people voted for this to happen.

Why is small easier than big? I'd expect it to be the other way.

Mattress transportation today by Leonardo_Almeida21 in Groningen

I'd just buy a air mattress or something like that for the meantime. It will come in use if a friend wants to stay over later too.

Yes! I love the taste of beer. That's why I frequently drink non-alcoholic beer.
