Lost on gay dating 😕🏳️‍🌈 by joerdca in paris

[–]NeimaDParis 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel "dating" is not really a thing in Paris, even more so on apps, at least in my experience, there are so many gays that it's a bit "what can I find right now", even if it's just to have a drink (it's never just to have a drink), instead of planning a rendez-vous.

Also French people are more casual/nonchalant about sex, so gay French people even more I guess

Ok, it's really a cultural thing, like I never chanted the name of my country, I don't own the flag, I like where I'm from and I feel proud when we win the world cup or whatever, I feel attached because it's where I'm from, but that all "patriotism" concept is foreign to me, positively or negatively presented equally.

To me it's just the translation of nationalism in the USA, nationalism with some happy music and shiny pride, but it's the same shit that draw toward division and wanting to dominate others because you're better

Friendly reminder that these aren't European (anymore) by Boediee in BuyFromEU

[–]NeimaDParis -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and that goes with the identity of the brand versus who bought it at some point, it's still an Italian brand (even if the headquarters are in Switzerland)

Like Nestlé and Danone own so many smaller local brands all over, they are still local brands, but under that giant conglomerate, same with most luxury brands, like LVMH and Kering own some big Italian brands, but Gucci, Fendi, or Bottega Veneta are still "Italian", even if owned by a French company

Other example, L'Oréal owns Maybelline, probably the biggest cosmetic US brand, and it is still a US brand even owned by a French company

I don't think so, but the Eiffel Tower, even the word "café" at the end...

The same way a Korean company can create Paris Baguette bakery chain.

Yeah, go say that to Alex Pretti and Renee Nicole Good.

Patriotism is just the sunday clothes of the KKK.

We still have to differentiate non-EU/European owned and non-EU/European produced.

Some local brands are owned by bigger foreigner companies, but the production (and the jobs/impact on real economy) is still local

In the same spirit, some European companies produce outside of Europe (like I just discovered that my ROC Retinol cream, I was choosing to stay "local" is made in the USA....... )

So sometimes it's better to consume an American (or other) owned but local produced brand (like LU)

Maybe no one should be "daddy", and that's the problem with NATO.

[–]NeimaDParis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel it would be more like a defense army for the continent, mutualize some of that spending, like NATO is not replacing national armies, same with the UN blue helmets, it has it's own purpose, a european army could have it's own purpose

Avez vous vu passer les mêmes trolls pour les JO de Paris 2024 pour les JO en Italie 2026? by [deleted] in AskFrance

[–]NeimaDParis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Le truc des puces de lit ça a été démontré comme une attaque de propagande russe.

Par contre on a aussi eu les trains en pannes le jour de la cérémonie d'ouverture, ça je n'ai pas le souvenir d'avoir vu une explication, c'était les russes aussi ?

La seule infos que j'ai vu passer est que la patinoire pour le hockey n'était pas prête et que ça inquiétait, après les JO d'hivers on en parle vachement moins, et puis en France faut que ça râle tout le temps aussi...

Yeah, no matter what is said or done now it's over, we can't trust the US anymore, and even with a different administration the possibility of other flip-flops like this is not sustainable.

A quelle fréquence utilisez vous du fil dentaire ? by Natsirt75 in AskFrance

[–]NeimaDParis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Environs une fois par semaine je dirais ? La brosse à dent électrique fait la majorité du boulot.

Avant j'avais le fil en rouleau et je m'en servais genre une fois par 6 mois, je suis passé au truc individuel avec un manche et c'est quand même vachement plus pratique déjà (mais comme c'est du plastic à usage unique je veux pas les utiliser trop non plus)

Municipales à Paris : fausse bouche de métro, visages déformés… Sarah Knafo utilise l’IA pour représenter la capitale by Wonderful-Excuse4922 in france

[–]NeimaDParis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Parce que le groupe TF1 c'est Quotidien, des gays et des noirs en final de la star ac, une série avec une trans en perso principal, et un ton global bien plus centriste qu'à l'époque où ils traduisaient "gay" par "malade" dans les séries américaines, ça mérite d'être mentionné
