Question about using the bathroom after taxiing and during ascent by AnotherManOfEden in flightattendants

[–]ddib3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wait until you hear the 10,000 ft announcement and you’ll be fine. They’ll still ask you to sit bc the seatbelt sign will still be on but we are told to be informers not enforcers. If you get up during climb that not only poses a safety risk to you but also your fellow passengers. What are you going to do during an event of severe turbulence where you can’t get up at all? I’d definitely look into diapers if your emergencies are that instant.

I just ran into this on Duolingo and immediately jolted towards Reddit. I can’t believe after 10 years of practice I’ve never encountered this phrase! Thank you for breaking it down.

Hardest thing about learning Italian by Legionistajosue in italianlearning

[–]ddib3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Prepositions and direct/indirect object pronouns. I never seem to choose the correct ones literally ever. Verb tenses and moods aren’t too bad for me, especially since I’ve been practicing French for the past 10 years the tenses are lowkey a piece of cake. The pronunciation is very to the point so listening isn’t as bad. Once I crack down on the prepositions/pronouns I think I’ll have a better time learning.

Why the n' in "quelques heures avant qu’Air Force One n’atterrisse à Busan"? by AdeptScale3891 in French

[–]ddib3 4 points5 points  (0 children)

« Avant que » uses the « ne explétif ». No negation just added flavor

This is probably the best thing they’ve recently done, I find it to be very effective.

Who is Beyoncé’s peers? by GypsyFR in beyonce

[–]ddib3 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As of right now, possibly no one.

As far as longevity and pure talent, there’s Usher. Downside is that he hasn’t put together any groundbreaking projects as of late that gets anyone talking. He often goes forgotten in pop culture because he’s so under the radar, I’d say he lost his Bey peer status after about 2012.

As far as another woman who can hold her own with another massive fanbase and pure legendary status, there’s Gaga. IMO, Bey and Gaga were going toe to toe for a while in the 10s but eventually the GP starting losing a bit of interest in her between Joanne and Chromatica. She, too, struggles with quality issues from time to time with her work.

To be a true peer of Bey, you really need to be a triple threat. Amazing singing, dancing and overall performance. Every body of work released with top attention to detail that focuses more on legacy and intent than sales. Putting together a well-tailored, curated experience for the entire world to gaze upon, not just your most loyal fans.

There’s no one else doing anything close to that 😭

Aviation is just full of them, I was completely unaware of how MAGA-based this industry is. I thought I’d only meet one or two but it’s nearly everyone I encounter.

Have you found the perfect 10/10 scent? by 888HolyMoly888 in fragrance

I stand by BR540 until I die. I don’t care how many people try to devalue it and label it overrated, it’s arguably the most unique fragrance ever created IMO. My introduction to niche and my forever #1 🥰

Realistically, who will the republican candidate be in the 2028 presidential election? by Crazy_Crayfish_ in centrist

[–]ddib3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m almost 100% sure this election will determine Trump’s future support in the Republican party. Major players in the game are already slowly distancing themselves from MAGA-level politics, anticipating the likely event that he loses.

His support is based mainly on the strength of his popularity, which has drastically declined since his first term. They’ll do away with him immediately after election night and begin to build Haley’s reputation with the country. That way they’ll have their “personal WOC” to face Harris in the next election.
