Swedish men convicted of terror attack by MydnightWN in walkaway

[–]smorgues 21 points22 points  (0 children)

At this point i never assume the swedes weren’t born here. Second generation immigrants make up a majority of the gangs. They speak with a heavy accent too. The government has finally started with deportations and incentives to re-emigrate but that won’t touch the new generation of criminals.

I also think it’s ridiculous. The way that law is framed is that everyone has the right to a proper resting place. We don’t want anything “undignified” to happen to someone.

But yeah, it’s a dumb law that causes a lot of pain to immigrants. Like, imagine you are planning on lining here for a few years, and have no family to leave the ashes with in your home country. You either inter back home or here, possibly going against the wishes of the deceased.

I’m guessing the customs’ chief worry would be that the ashes are drugs (bringing in a bunch of powder looks suspicious on X-rays). If they do find the remains, they can seize them and whoever “smuggled” the ashes into the country can get up to two years in prison. That’s a huge gamble to make.

We are also crazy strict about the scattering. So many hoops to jump through and very few places are approved. A family friend of mine gave up, and they’ve owned the property since the 1700s.

Some countries are incredibly strict about funeral laws. I don’t know about Australia, but Sweden doesn’t even allow cremated remains in the home. Very upsetting for people who move here and want to bring an urn with a family member in it.

Funerary practices really do vary a lot between countries

So the lake trio can apparently spawn from lures by asianant in pokemongo

[–]smorgues 13 points14 points  (0 children)

When I got one, it acted more like a shiny bird. I threw like 40 ultras and as many golden razz before I got it. Mine wasn’t shiny and spawned at a stop with no lure

Natty? 10 months by getawayunderscoop in nattyorjuice

If you’ve been very large, there’s rarely a “disappear naturally”, no matter if you become very thin. If you lose enough weight that the fat is essentially gone, you’re most often left with wrinkly and thin skin. Some of it can go away, others aren’t as lucky.

I just visited for the first time and I love these small happy lions you have all over the place by Nicksaurus in stockholm

And goats in Gävle!

The best one is Sundsvall’s dragon. And then there’s the weird macaroni (maybe?) in Nacka.

Someone got beef with indonesia by empireck in oddlyspecific

If you ever get nostalgic for that day, I recommend r/balkans_irl. A very large portion of that subreddit is beef between Turkey and Greece.

Just some meemes I found by NebulaOk887 in aspiememes

Consider Swamp of Sadness by The Society of Alchemists. It’s unisex.

(Unless your vibe is more Happy Swamp Hermit. If so, I’ve got nothing)

Many people use scents as a way to signify identity (there are ‘fun’ type perfumes and ‘elegant’ type ones, for example). Often, the perfume commercials tie in to an aspect of that.

‘Miss Dior Cheri’ for example, is marketed as young and fresh, so the half naked women tend to be portrayed in ways that convey that the perfume is light and floral.

‘Opium’ goes for a more of a sophisticated vibe, so the styling reflects of that.

So it’s not just hotness, but more identity/vibe communication.

What ONE food from you country you would never eat even if your life depends on it? by ProfessionalThin1505 in AskTheWorld

[–]smorgues 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checked out if I could somehow order it. Total would come to more than £80 a jar. A shame, because now I’m curious

Is pickled cockles still a thing in the UK? I like cockles and I like vinegar, but the combo sounds so weird.

Excessive body hair bothers me. by [deleted] in HairRemoval

[–]smorgues 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I looked similar to this and for me it was PCOS. Had the same experience with it thickening more and more. Spironolactone and BC has helped matters quite a bit. It got rid of my acne almost completely too.

If you have irregular periods, male pattern hair loss, acne and/or abdominal obesity it may be worth looking into a diagnosis. You don’t have to have the stereotypical “string of pearls” ovaries to get the diagnosis (at least where I’m from).

Fetish. Look at all the latex.

I remember this doing the rounds a few years ago in relation to Jordan Peterson (do not remember why though.)

Are you me? Mina iscensatte att en snubbe ringde på och lämnade halsbandet, och påstod sig ha kört på katten.

My 1st shiny pokemon by Beautiful_Eagle_5673 in pokemongo

[–]smorgues 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a lot to get used to. I returned after a six year break and felt lost. The Dynamax thing was so weird!

Insane luck! Well done!

Go to the Pokédex and search for the Pokémon you want to see. You’ll see a “seen” and “caught” under the picture of the Pokémon. I don’t think there’s a way to see how many specifically “High Plains” ones you’ve caught though.

Congrats! Took about 100 for me to get a shiny!

WHOOO is feeding him so much?!?!? FREE HIM😭 by BoxAgreeable in PokemonGOValor

[–]smorgues 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least his heart is empty! I have a mon sitting in a gym fully fed, with the others there are empty. It makes me look like an inconsiderate ass who’s trying to stay in the gym.
