1 instance (can you guess which one?)

around 100-150 communities (mostly because they are in a language i dont speak)

and like, 5-6 users. a couple bots, and a couple far-right cringebros. used to have a whole lot more, but i recently unblocked everyone and am now less agressive with the block button

what is it with people using asklemmy for anything but an actual open question recently?

read rule 1

because i dont need it? counterquestion: why do you pretend to ask a question when you actually just want to advertise a program?

edit: also, read rule 1

When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up. -C.S Lewis

following this i would say when you stop wanting to be grown-up. and that certainly tracks for me

well… i cant say i didnt learn something today

shakes head somberly

a surprise to be sure, but an unfortunate one

Yes. Men had all the political power in the countries that turned to fascism in the past. If you knew any history this would be obvious.

this is kind of meaningless to point out, since men also had the power in every country that turned towards socialism, gave or took away rights, started and ended wars, etc.

75% of suicide deaths. the number of attempts is about the same

same goes for steam, epic launcher, etc. with the exception of gog (though generally if steam removes a game, they at least let you keep your copy if you already own it)

Mein Herr, ihr Lambo ist bereit. Zum Moooooond!

big towel for lower body, small towel for upper body. big towel gets wrapped around hip after drying. but the order is correct

man muss sich halt schon echt mühe geben, den punkt nicht zu verstehen. hier geht es nicht um schuld, sondern verantwortung. und ja, als gesellschaft hat man eine verantwortung dafür sorge zu tragen, dass alle mitglieder in sicherheit leben können. der autor gibt am ende doch sogar eine lange liste von möglichkeiten, wie männer sich dieser verantwortung stellen können:

Darauf hinzuweisen, rechnet kein Leid gegeneinander auf. Es weist bloß auf eine Struktur hin, die es zu durchbrechen gelte. Zum Beispiel, indem Männer sich selbst kritisch be- und hinterfragen. Zum Beispiel, indem sie Frauen glauben, statt sie zuerst der Falschaussage zu bezichtigen. Zum Beispiel, indem Polizisten besser geschult werden, Opfer von Missbrauch, die Anzeige erstatten, professionell zu befragen. Indem die Politik das Thema mit angemessener Priorität behandelt. Es braucht mehr Gewaltschutzambulanzen, mehr Frauenhäuser, Anlauf- und Beratungsstellen, eine Gesetzgebung, die Opfer schützt, ein gesellschaftliches Selbstverständnis, das den derzeitigen Zustand nicht hinnimmt. Es braucht Aufklärungskampagnen, die Tätern signalisieren: Ihr kommt damit nicht so leicht davon. Es bräuchte dafür so vieles. Das zu fordern, ist nicht allein Aufgabe von Frauen.

yeah those were really fun/ disturbing

mate… what the fuck are you on? definitely gonna stay clear of whatever you got

there are already a few versions of lemmy gold floating around, but they arent used much. i like this one

i think its important that all the ingredients chosen fit well together (i guess thats the case for all food?) also i will not stand for the egrigious pickle-slander in the comments

When we consider the humble cucumber, we must recognize its potential for transformation. Fresh cucumbers, while refreshing and crisp, are limited in their capacity to engage our senses and provide depth to our culinary experiences. In contrast, pickled cucumbers—those vibrant, tangy delights—embody a profound metamorphosis. The process of pickling not only enhances their flavor but also preserves them, allowing us to enjoy their essence long after the harvest. This transformation mirrors the journey of individuals who face adversity and emerge stronger, more complex, and ultimately more valuable.

Moreover, the act of pickling cucumbers is a testament to human ingenuity and the desire to transcend the ordinary. It is a ritual steeped in tradition, connecting us to our ancestors who understood the importance of preservation and flavor enhancement. The spices and vinegar used in the pickling process create a symphony of tastes that awaken our palates and stimulate our minds. This complexity is akin to the richness of human experience, where the interplay of challenges and triumphs leads to a more nuanced understanding of life. Just as we savor the layers of flavor in a pickled cucumber, we must also appreciate the layers of meaning in our own lives.

Finally, we must consider the nutritional benefits that pickled cucumbers offer. The fermentation process not only enhances their flavor but also introduces beneficial probiotics that support gut health. In a world increasingly aware of the importance of nutrition and well-being, pickled cucumbers stand out as a symbol of mindful eating. They remind us that we can elevate the mundane to the extraordinary through intentional choices. In this way, pickled cucumbers are not merely a food item; they represent a philosophy of embracing transformation, complexity, and health—principles that resonate deeply with the human experience.
