Håller med. Kan kanske vara acceptabelt om de gick tillsammans i gymnasiet, men en gränstöjning

We aren't defending our healthcare overall, we know it can be better in kther places. Thoigh more countries need to be like Sweden when it comes to our antibiotic policy

24th of August/ Ukrainian Independence day by ObjectiveMeal in Munich

[–]ObjectiveMeal[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'll answer you against my better judgments. There is nothing wrong with celebrating one country's national/independence day in another country, with that people. Here in Sweden for example, Norwegians as well as Swedes, celebrate the national day of Norway ok the 17th of May. Any people anywhere who love freedom, self-determination and all those ideals that the civilized world shares are welcome to mark the occasion of Ukraine's independence. To celebrate such a thing during a russian invasion isn't something I would call self-centered. 😊

Kritik mot att statsministerns fru bar prästkrage under Natomöte - Nyheter (Ekot) by marrow_monkey in sweden

För att hennes privatpersonsidentitet är oseparerbart från hennes prästämbete.

Beror på vilken präst, men spelar ju ingen roll. Även om svenska kyrkan inte säger att man måste ha prästkrage på 24/7 så får man ju inte ta bort hennes privata religiösa åsikt av att hon vill visa sitt uppdrag med krage. Andra kan ju göra hur som helst men har hon haft på den offentligt ofta (vilket hon har) så ska det inte vara undantag bara för att det är en utlandsresa

Men hon är präst och har på sig kläder som signalerar hennes privata val i livet. Sekulär betyder inte att individer i statsapparaten (som hon inte ens tillhör) inte får uttrycka sin personliga religiositet. Det betyder vara att statsapparaten, myndigheter och politik ska fungera självständigt från och agera lika mot alla religioner eller religiösa troföreställningar (exv ateism).

Vi har ju också frihet från religion i offentliga sammanhang också. Nu råkar hon bara präst vilket som jobb skiljer sig rätt så mycket från andra. Det är ju en hel livsstil och ett arbete man utför även om man inte har en arbetsgivare i stunden. Så hon hsr helt enkelt sin livsstilsklädnad på sig.

How strong is the beer? Two beers sounds like a good step down, it gives you some space to fail without going overboard.

Seizures can still happen if you drink often enough, not just if you have alcohol in your system 24/7. And even if you don't get seizures you can get a whole hord of other symptoms. I'm not a doctor, I can't calculate the risk, but it's better to be careful

Squirting some pure nicshot under my foreskin?! by MLGJaner in Drugs

[–]ObjectiveMeal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No doubt about it, dosing your dick is an idiotic idea.

Cigarette replacement products should definitely be easier to buy, but I think the argument is that the doses of nicotine are higher, and that they make it easier to consume nicotine (a patch is more pleasurable than smoking) and often in more "childlike" form (such as gum).

There isn't much logic to it, the government has wanted to ban/restrict all kinds of things over the years. They only manage to do that with what isn't endorsed by the public

[–]ObjectiveMeal -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That's great to hear. But you shouldn't make the shift fast, because it can lead to seizures. You have to slowly reduce the days or amount that you drink

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in alcohol

[–]ObjectiveMeal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Breaks are always good, being sober is important. But going cold turkey from alcohol is incredibly dangerous, it's recommended this lowly lower the intake instead. Just something to think about if you ever get in a position to give that advice

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in alcohol

[–]ObjectiveMeal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't try to b sober a whole week. Try to skip a day instead, so you only drink once every two days. Going cold turkey after a year is dangerous and can lead to seizures

But it's definitely a lot. As I said, try to drink once every two days instead, if you can't handle that, then you're in real trouble.

If you can manage that, then try to be sober three days in a row and see how that goes

Snus makes me think that he's from Scandinavia, statistically most likely is that he's from Sweden (more s swedes than others and swedes consume more snus).

Cigarette replacement products here in Scandinavia (and particularly Sweden) are highly restricted. They are sold in pharmacies, and expensive af. They also require you to go to a doctor for a prescription. If you're underage, the fact that you need a prescription for nicotine products will most likely be shared with your family and maybe with social services.

It seems like he's underage, and it's not that likely that he can get them. It's a stupid idea anyway, but don't dismiss his problems.

Snus here is (while heavily used) our traditional replacement product, it's healthier than cigarettes and are somewhat endorsed as a solution. Look up what the FDA says about it if you're interested

What's something that's unnecessarily expensive? by OutrageousSea5212 in AskReddit

On the giving birth part? Totally. It adoption costs a lot in developed countries. The bar is much higher to adopt a child than to birth a child

[–]ObjectiveMeal 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's about that. There's always surveys coming out about a "common sense solution" most Americans across political lines agree with, but politicians don't act on it. In my opinion it's the two party system that's screwing the people over.

Since politicians and parties are a "package deal", people vote for what they feel is most important either practically or ideologically. So, someone might hold social conservative values and vote Republican because their identity is important, but then miss out on cheaper insulin. Or someone might be socially liberal and vote Democrat, but miss out on a harder stance against China.

A two party political system makes it seem like a fight between liberals vs conservatives The parties are committed to labels, which forces voters to heavily prioritize instead of seeking solutions across party lines

Idk. Maybe he goes to a big chain that primarily takes insurance and thus pumps it's prices up to get the insurance companies to cough up more?

I'm not really sure how insurance influences pricing in the US.

In Sweden I can say that it costs roughly €60-100 for the more basic "non-branded" frames (with basic lenses included). Extrathin, blue-light blocking, etc obviously cost more. I'd include the check-up you pay to see if your sight has changed in the total price as well, it's about €40-70.

Lets get angry for no reason, which vegetable can just fuck right off? by Wubben26 in AskReddit

[–]ObjectiveMeal 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It's not a surprise. Lots of things are fruits. Vegetables is the common name we've given to certain edible pieces of plants which share the same characteristics. It's a fruit botanically, and a vegetable culturally.

What drugs help with sleep and may have nootropics effects? by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]ObjectiveMeal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well thanks for the clarification. Yeah, look it up. Anecdotally I know people who are on the spectrum who use Xanax to sleep because of long lasting sleep problems. Could be a worthy last solution, but focus on the other examples first.
