What?! I don't think I've ever seen lemmynsfw posts on All.

I sort "Active" (Voyager app) whatever that means. Infinite scrolling. Admitedly I don't scroll very far down.

I always say "I read something funny on the internet. You wouldn't understand."

That's pretty weird because I do see women's nipples in US movies and series.

I think fire kills cancer too.

J'aime marcher la nuit après une tombée de neige. C'est beau de voir la force chaotique de la nature.

The water is really incredible. Makes me wish to go to the beach, makes me feel good, and makes me thirsty.

Came to say Warcraft 3.

Danquebec ,

Same experience here.

Danquebec ,

Same, never smelled ants.

And I've watched ants a lot when I was a kid. I still do sometimes.

I used to even bring pieces of food from the pantry to give to the ants.

Protein: legumes (beans, lentils, peanuts, chickpeas, tofu and other solid soy products)

Calcium: fortified plant milks (convenient) or cruciferous leaves and flowers (healthy) such as collards, kale, or broccoli. Tofu is a good source too. Avoid excessive intakes of salt.

Iron: eat vitamin-C rich food with your meals, such as bell peppers, lemon/lime juice on your food, or drink orange juice.

B-12: you must supplement, either with gummies, fortified plant milk or processed vegan products (vegan sausages, vegan "turkey" slices, etc.)

A vitamin: carrots, cruciferous leaves and flowers (see calcium), squash, cantaloup. Eat with fatty food for better absorption. Eg. Minestrone soup (kale and olive oil)

Omega-3 : tofu is a good source. Flaxseed oil has enough in a teaspoon – it works well on salads. Some nuts are a good source too.

Please visit https://veganhealth.org/ for more information. This site is authored by a registered dietetician.

https://nutritionfacts.org/ is great too.

Danquebec ,

Generally, people who eat animal products several time per say don't need to supplement with B12. But I remember reading that elders absorb it not as well and can't rely even on animal products, and may need to supplement.

Yes, fortified nutritional yeast is a source too. One should make sure their nutritional yeast is fortified berfore relying on it for B12. If it's not fortified with B12, it doesn't contain any.

Fortified nutritional yeast needs to be kept in a dark place, preferably refrigerated.

I use it in pesto in place of cheese and everyone, omnivores included, love it.

Danquebec ,

Love you Europe.

The separatist movement is not dead at all. It continued to shape the province's politics a lot, and also at the federal level.

And I can tell you, Canada ignoring Quebec's opinion on this and joining the UK would furiously galvanize the Quebec independence movement.

Tax filling software companies left the chat.

This is interesting, but I felt the measures used aren't right. It's to be expected that a leader who's antagonising your country would be disliked, even when their ideology is similar to yours.

To be able to compare well enough in the little time I have in my busy life, I had to go by a methodology that is not perfect but allows some comparison. It's the Political Compass.

According to this site, during the 2025 federal elections, the Conservative party was 8,7 (economic scale and social scale respectively), while Trump was 9,9 during the last presidential elections. It means Trump is to the right of the Conservative party, but not by a lot.

I have to go now but I'll try later to find the proportion of Albertan voterd who voted for the Conservative party.

EDIT: 63,5% of Albertan voters voted for the CPC. It's still hard to compare that statistic to the proportion of Californian voters who voted for Trump, but my feeling is that California isn't far removed from Alberta, perhaps it is even left of Alberta.

As an example of that, try asking a LLM questions about precise details about the lore of a fictional universe you know well, and you know that what you're asking about hasn't ever been detailed.

Not Tolkien because this has been too much discussed on the internet. Pick a universe much more niche.

It will completely invent stuff that kinda makes sense. Because it's predicting the next words that seem likely in the context.

A human would be much less likely to do this because they'd just be able to think and tell you "huh... I don't think the authors ever thought about that".

It's surprising they've never moved to Linux, considering the urgency and the power of the chinese state to steer society.

Danquebec ,

I accept that a Jew who wishes for a nation-state for Jews, based on civic nationalism, inclusive for people of different religions and ethnicities, and showing the due respect for the natives and their property and land rights, isn't far right.

But for the most part, Israelis are far-right now.

Danquebec ,

Jews collectively decide to go to the same region, and in doing so give it a significant Jewish cultural character.

Danquebec ,

As someone passionate for history and anthropology, I must say this is a good summary.

Braking rule

Twitter post with a two screenshots of Breaking Bad showing Walter White assembling a broken plate, with one piece missing and the second him looking down concerned. The text reads, "Why was he so upset about a broken plate 🤣🤣🤣 just buy a new one bro". kkorechika on Tumblr responds to this screenshot with "thats what the whole show is about dumbass. breaking=bad"

Yea it was early in Heisenberg's criminal career, so he he was still soft and naive.

Small spoilers

They were keeping a gangster in the basement, tied to a pole, since quite a long time. Heisenberg didn't know what to do. The gangster became friendly and closer, at least it seemed. Then Heisenberg broke a plate next to the gangster. He said he'll come back with a new plate. He collected the pieces and went up. There he realized the gangster had taken a shard for himself. So he decided to kill him. Heisenberg strangled the gangster from behind, and as he did so, the gangster tried to reach Heisenberg with the shard, but was too far and managed to cut his leg.

Thanks.

The middle ground fallacy

What about the far right though?

That's good, but it pales in comparison to the effect we could gain by reducing the amount of paper that gets printed, especially in business.

Incredibly, a lot of time I spend is spent scanning shit that was produced using a computer, then printed, sent to me, only for me to then bring it back into a computer!

Most French people are well aware of our existence. We generally treat each others as cousins and the people with who we have the most cultural affinity in the world.

Falling birth rate in France: 'We may be witnessing a period of very rapid and highly gendered social change' ( www.lemonde.fr )

The decline in the number of births should be seen in connection with the 'gender divergence' between increasingly progressive young women and increasingly conservative young men, observes economist Pauline Grosjean in her column. ...

Perhaps the native thinks of their own childhood as the baseline, and feels like they would be unable to provide, while the immigrant came from comparable economic conditions they have now, or even worse, so they don't see issues with it.

There's also the fact that the immigrant is often religious and believes he must have children.

They do this because the job seeker is already invested, and doesn't have the time to ponder well their choice, or speak about this with someone else.

They must choose on the spot, and having already invested time. They'll often accept much lower than they would have otherwise.

For the hirer, it pays off on the long term despite the time they also invest. It's thousands, even sometimes tens of thousands of dollars saved each year.

I also don't apply to jobs that don't show the salary in the posting. But I used to when I was desperate.

Imagine all the NATO countries send forces to Greenland and poor Iceland gets invaded instead.

He thinks a trade surplus for Canada means the US is subsidizing Canada.

I'm not even kidding.

Yea sure it will.

The mystery for me is that, how does the regime being transparent on imperialism and might makes right doesn't wake up those people from the spell of normalcy bias?

Unfortunately, many of us know English well and some are happy to consume that propaganda, so the infection has vectors to spread.

This seems like a recurrent unfortunate thing in Norway.

"Burzum is very well known among fans of black metal and is considered seminal in black metal despite being a far-right white supremacist murderer."

Inuits are pretty brown.

You can't really hide in the tundra or icecaps though.

Danquebec ,

I'm all ears if you see a way but I can't see one now. It's uncovered. That's what a tundra is. A place where it doesn't stay warm long enough for trees to grow.

Perhaps tunnels in the snow during the winter? I don't know if Groenland gets enough precipitations for that. But what do you do in the summer?

Danquebec ,

Or they fail to imagine a situation that seems unrealistic.

Or they can't come to terms with it.

Or they are delusional.

I just can't understand what goes inside those people's minds no matter how hard I try and that's really frustrating.
