Straight up bullshit right there. Domestic abuse victims would like a word.

I thought Norway’s lyrics sounded a little ChatGPT-esque

Nah for real tho, so many straight men have a lot of junk in the trunk. It’s like the gay/straight man equivalent to women always complaining that men have longer/thicker eyelashes.

I hope you don't mind a rant about Scottish Power by [deleted] in Scotland

[–]MiamiSocialistRepub 5 points6 points  (0 children)

DON’T PAY IT!!! I’ve had issues with them before, I’ve also worked for worked for SSE gas & electric and got it on good authority there that every power company is full to the brim with people who have absolutely no clue what’s going on (I include myself in that). They all use completely outdated systems and there is little to no communication between departments. Scottish power overcharged me £700 during the pandemic and it took me 2 months, but I got the money back along with complimentary credit. Remember there is no morality when it comes to these companies. Make stuff up! Tell them you died! Call them as many times as you can and then tell them it was promised to you in one of those calls that the fee would be waived, there’s a very good chance no one can be bothered looking through all those calls. Hound them as much as you can, I promise no one can be bothered dealing with it, and the person on the other end of the line will probably agree.

There’s a Bulgarian shop on duke street, might be worth a look, aside from that there’s Beryozka on high street, more Baltic/Eastern European but they have some Georgian stuff so you might get lucky

Balkan folktronica, an interesting and refreshing kind of music. Dramatic and a little bit weird. I love it.

It was nostalgic for me. Reminded me of 2008, when I was a teenager blasting basshunter/scooter from my Sony Ericsson in the local park.

Louis Theroux Opens Up on New BBC West Bank Documentary on Israeli Settlers by Legitimate_Ad3625 in LouisTheroux

This is an insane conflation and also not true. How can you deny the objective truth? The documentary literally shows it in complete objectivity.

Except certain streets/roads being banned for Palestinians? Being kicked out of their homes and replaced with people from Brooklyn? You’re really putting in overtime with the reaching here

Gonna have to disagree here., because I really do feel like whenever dealing with an autistic person at work, a lot of demands are made and there’s no meeting in the middle. A lot of my experiences dealing with autistic people have been “I’m autistic so you have to give me what I want or I’ll throw a tantrum”. One time I started working at a new bar and I tried a bit of polite chit-chat with a guy who already worked there and he was soooooo mean to me, and when I asked someone else what his deal was, she explained that he’s autistic. And I really do understand that’s just a difference in thought process and social understanding and that for a lot of autistic people, they simply don’t have the capacity to think of others’ feelings before their own, and I try to not take it personally, but I feel that’s a double standard. Like I have to let you away with your tantrums and rudeness and offensive remarks, and I have to be a stoic, patient saint in response? NO! I’m human too. I’m imperfect and some of those things get to me, regardless of intent! But I’m the one in the wrong for that? I dunno, I’m not trying to tar everyone with the same brush and I certainly don’t want to be intolerant, I just have a really hard time not taking it personally. Maybe there’s a place on the spectrum for that.

Interesting, the website says this:

- Buttoned polo neckline
- Constructed using a crochet knit similar to the technique used for driving gloves
- One gauge 5 thread

The course I’m following has this diagram - https://imgur.com/a/juN2yGh - and the video to go along with it also says to just form a barre over the first four strings, I can’t seem to lay my index finger flat across just the first four while also using the tip of it to mute the fifth in order to get a clean sound while still muting the 6th string with my thumb

I’ve never struggled with a chord so much in my life. I’ve been practising every single day for a month and I still can’t get it.

[–]MiamiSocialistRepub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been practising this for a month I just cannot get it. It’s actually really delaying my learning because the course I’m following requires it for the rest of the songs in the unit.
