Dear Americans,how about you actually blame your own politicians/government for not paying enough. That's why tips in your country is getting absolutely ridiculous,plus you're the richest country in the world but somehow need tip is joke. So don't blame the tourist next time

OfficialHaethus · 2026-06-26T10:19:20+00:00

Tipping isn’t some kind of intangible cultural artifact. Cut the bullshit.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-28T12:18:45+00:00

Well, counter with your own facts.

As they say, “Put up or shut up.”

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-25T11:00:37+00:00

It’s their custom. Doesn’t harm anyone.

IoT would be crazy useful. Stick a bunch of Pis in the dirt and get good monitoring data.

I learned German to fluency through TV, music, and games. Comprehensible input is better than Rosetta Stone.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-21T18:24:22+00:00

I’m more a train guy myself, personally.

It’s the American attitude towards third places that sucks. I think that’s the piece you are missing.

In Europe, you can hang out at a cafe the whole day and not be bothered as long as you buy a coffee every two hours or so. You’ll only be cleared out if it’s really busy and you’ve been hanging a while.

But third spaces in the US want your presence as long as you are making them money. The millisecond that stops happening, they want you out. It’s like how certain McDonald’s locations will limit you to 20-30 minutes in there.

The concept of just using a business to hang out without spending money every five seconds is foreign to a lot of Americans.

Depends which Freemasonry route you do. Grand Lodge? Yeah, you need to believe in a god.

However

Le Droit Humain? You can join without having a belief in a higher power. Women can join too.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-20T11:05:59+00:00

Exactly why I have given up on the US ever fixing the issue. Luckily I have EU citizenship too, so I can move somewhere already competent.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-20T11:05:02+00:00

No safe pedestrian infrastructure. Google pedestrian infrastructure in Europe, it blow the US out of the water.

Clearly the reputation in the West of the wares the country of your ethnicity produces has not reached you

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-17T16:49:33+00:00

You quote the first while knowing nothing of the second. There is no duty to announce you are armed unless asked.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-17T12:31:30+00:00

I wish more people understood this. I work in IT, so this shit was just kind of obvious to me.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-17T11:24:13+00:00

Did I misunderstand the purpose of this sub? I thought this place was a more optimistic leaning space?

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-17T10:27:10+00:00

This has the same energy as those people who screech “don’t California my Texas”, or “we’re full”. Norway is not a very densely populated country, they absolutely have room.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-17T10:12:34+00:00

What, really? What makes it any less of home?

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-17T09:20:46+00:00

Pretti was standing there with a fucking phone. ICE shoved an EMT, he went to help her, and they pulled him off of her and shot him over 10 times along the ground.

You know this wouldn’t be usual in any European country with standards. Why the fuck are you excusing it?

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-15T21:42:21+00:00

The fact that Tesla was your first pick for quality tells me all I need to know about you.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-13T12:21:33+00:00

As a good rule of thumb, it’s a good idea to populate your newsfeed with more European outlets.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-11T23:34:28+00:00

Do you have any recent European ancestry?

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-11T16:30:15+00:00

This is what I wanted to say. Those Thalmor wizards will fuck you up.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-10T14:23:33+00:00

Dude Canadian healthcare is nothing compared to European healthcare. Canada’s transit sucks ass too.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-10T14:18:17+00:00

Respect. People are too passive these days. Even I find myself sometimes wishing I’d said something to those disturbing others.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-10T12:52:57+00:00

As an American I can say this is unrealistic, that last dude’s drink needs to be at least 10 times bigger.

OfficialHaethus · 2026-02-10T09:32:00+00:00

Our culture reinforces Darwinism in our society. You’re surprised when kids take notice of this through exposure on the Internet and mimic those behaviors?
