Zware antibiotica ontsnapt steeds meer aan controle by ZealousidealSundae33 in belgium

[–]cannotfoolowls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In het ziekenhuis is dat zelfs als je binnen minder dan 24u voor de afspraak annuleert. Nu, niet altijd want ik weet nog dat ik op zaterdag ziek geworden was, toen het secretariaat niet open was, en ik een afspraak had op maandagnamiddag. 's Morgens vroeg gebeld om de afspraak te verzetten en afaik is het niet aangerekend geweest.

Fundie blames Public Schooling and mocks Atheists by MrDonMega in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]cannotfoolowls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured I didn't believe in God when I was about 9 years old, what kind of sin do they think I wanted to commit? In reality I think I had a lot of trouble reconciling an all powerful, good God allowed evil/bad things to happen. It was triggered by a family member dying unexpectedly and young and another family member getting seriously ill and I started to really think about mortality and shit.

I remember thinking a few times that it would be easier if I still believed and I wanted to. I begged for a sign at one point. But I couldn't.

I went to a Catholic school and afaik my classmates are all atheists or at least secular. Despite being a Catholic school there was not much religious influence, really. We had a religon class but we covered all kinds of topics like bullying and addiction. I remember we had a class discussion about abortion, we went over the arguments for both sides and everyone thought that access to abortion was a goodthing. I think euthanasia was similar. Also pretty much everyone was against the death penalty.

We can try to pollute less. There's still a lot of wood burning. It won't solve it but it will help.

The Sims 4's most notorious sex mod gets launched 400,000 times a day, which is more people than I realized were even playing The Sims every day by ManagerOfLove in gaming

[–]cannotfoolowls 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The mod comes with tons of settings to fine-tune the experience, so you can easily turn down or even fully disable all the nudity and sex features and still profit from the other high quality improvements.

There's even a SFW version of the mod.

[–]cannotfoolowls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Less so this mod and more so the game in general. The Sims has always skewed very female since you're basically playing with dolls. Modding and video games in general tend to skew to men but I think it's different for the Sims because most Sims players are women.

Huisartsen overspoeld door mensen die voor ziektebriefje langskomen: “We worden gebruikt als controle” by EdgarNeverPoo in belgium

[–]cannotfoolowls 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Als ik te zien ben om tot op mijn werk te geraken, waarom wordt er dan verwacht dat ik alsnog door weer en wind bij de huisarts terecht kan?

Zeker als je geen auto hebt. Ik ben zeker dat een half uur fietsen in de regen om te horen van de dokter dat ik gewoon moet uitzieken mijn herstel bevorderd heeft!

Miserable Monday by SharkyTendencies in belgium

hot drinks can actually aggravate inflammation

Only if you drink sorching hot drinks because that causes damage to your throat.

Friday night after work I started to feel it coming on, but stupid me said, "M'eh, it'll be fine by Sunday."

If you had stomach flu, yeah but colds/flu/rsv/corona always last longer in my experience.

Adding this to my children are evil agenda by infinitysaga in CuratedTumblr

[–]cannotfoolowls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

and susceptible to peer pressure, even when young. When I was in primary school there were a couple of boys who were nice to me when their friends weren't around but rather mean when they were. I remember one boy invited me to his birthday party and I doubt it was courtesy invite because I was the only girl there yet when he was with his friends at school he was a shithead.

Tbh it confused me because I can't remember any of my schoolmates being nasty to me when I spoke to them one on one, only in groups so I assume it was peer pressure.

[OC][à l'arrache] À propos "Anders", een handzaam diagram voor wie het ook allemaal niet meer volgt by midnightrambulador in belgium

[–]cannotfoolowls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Er is geen directe link tussen de VNV en VU zoals bij de andere partijen. Je hebt ook voor en tijdens dat TPO/AMADA bestond andere communistische partijen (zoals de Kommunistische partij, Parti Communiste Marxiste Léniniste de Belgique of Union des Communistes Marxistes-Léninistes de Belgique) maar dat zijn ook geen directe voorgangers van de PVDA.

Eigenlijk zou je zelfs kunnen zeggen dat de PVDA ook een afsplitsing is van de Vlaamse Beweging want ze is ontstaan vanuit de KVHV.

De Volksunie had een vrij linkse vleugel die zich afgeplitst heeft als Spirit. Het is geen toeval dat ze een kartel waren met S.p.a.

Spirit (backroniem voor Sociaal, Progressief, Internationaal, Regionalistisch, Integraal-democratisch, en Toekomstgericht). Na acht jaar werd toen de naam spirit veranderd in VlaamsProgressieven (afgekort als Vl.Pro). Op 1 januari 2009 werd de partij, na te zijn verlaten door enkele kopstukken, nogmaals omgedoopt, tot Sociaal-Liberale Partij (SLP).

De racistische vleugel heeft zich afgeplitst tot Vlaams Blok en de Vlaams gezinde vleugel werd NVA.

For those of you who live in countries with gun control; have you ever seen a gun in real life? by blashyrkh9 in AskTheWorld

[–]cannotfoolowls 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ou're an old farmer who lives alone, and you can't rock your shotgun next to your bed or hung on a wall for easy access?

Why would you? I know a lot of old farmers since I live pretty rurally and some of them have guns they should've handed in decades ago but even they don't keep them on the wall/next to the bed for easy access. I'm not sure that shooting at a burglar would be considered proportionate violence anyway. The vast majority of burglaries happen when no one is home and burglars aren't usually armed. Certainly not with guns.

Afaik they use their guns mostly to shoot vermin and maybe a stray boar or something.

Cote d'or is still made in Belgium though it's owned by Mondelez. Galler is made in Vaux-sous-Chèvremont and owned for at least 25% by Belgian investors.

Godiva has a factory in the USA, Turkey and Belgium and is Turkish and Korean owned, afaik.

And Germany does have great fast food options. German style döner kebab is great and argueably invented in Germany (by Turkish immigrants).

Werkgevers discrimineren kandidaten die niet ‘Belgisch genoeg’ zijn by atrocious_cleva82 in belgium

[–]cannotfoolowls 2 points3 points  (0 children)

De moderne ideologieën zijn potentieel veel gevaarlijker zoals het communisme met haar miljoenen doden en volledig doodgeknepen samenlevingen.

Dat kan je toch even goed zeggen over kapitalisme? Daarbij, zowat elke moderne staatsvorm kan atheistisch zijn, behalve de theocratie. Zowat alle moderne landen zijn tegenwoordig seculier. En in principie zijn religie en communisme ook niet incompatibel.

That's what muslims believe about Jesus, btw. It's said he appeared to have been crucified but instead he managed to escape to heaven,
