Billionaires

My cooking. I love to cook, be it simple meals or extravagant dishes, and everyone I know loves to eat my food - which is exactly why I'd never ever do it professionally. I really don't want to risk losing the enjoyment and relaxation I get from cooking. Being in the kitchen for an hour after i came home from work is my way to unwind after a long day.

So where are we at right now?

"We didn't bomb the hospital, Hamas did. And even if we bombed the hospital, Hamas used it as a base. And even if they didn't, a some of them were in there. And even if they weren't, there were Hamas tunnels under the hospital."

I wonder what's next

"The schlong choses the wizard"

You've got it all wrong! It was actually an incredibly genius move, as the writers knew that after 7 seasons of twists, turns and surprises, the audience wouldn't really be phased by any characters death anymore. We'd become so accustomed to sudden character deaths that watching GoT became the literal incarnation of "expect the unexpected" and you can't shock people who are just waiting for it to happen. So what did the showrunners do? They did the only thing nobody expected, assassinated the only target they knew would still get a reaction out of people after all this time - they killed off the show itself.

Boost, hands down! It was my favourite for Reddit and is still just as amazing in it's Lemmy version.

The whole "the world will end in 2012" hysteria back then. It was my first glimpse into conspiracy theories, which I've spent a lot of time learning about ever since. It made me realize that nothing is ever too idiotic to not have an alarming number of people fall for it. It's why I wasn't surprised by the rise of the Q-movement or the resistance against the absolute bare minimum of COVID measures because of microchips in vaccines etc. All of that were just yet additional "of course people believe that shit"-moments for me.

Like Tommy Lee Jones said in Men in Black "A person is smart - people are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals."

I haven't been surprised by how stupid people can be in a long time.

Even then it would need a little more than the muskrats word to convince me that it's not just something he made up lol

German: "Dich soll der Blitz beim Scheißen treffen" - Lightning shall strike you while you're taking a shit

Best insult ever, imo.

Be glad that you're still ahead. Absolutely beats trying to catch up with him lol

Huh, I wonder why? Let's see...

• My rent was raised by ~100€ over the last two years
• My electricity bill is 30€ higher now, too
• My food expenses exploded to about an extra 200€ per month, even though I pay more attention to prices now and go for me-too-products whenever I can
• Not to mention the countless other things that got more expensive (heating, water bills, insurance, clothes etc.)

Meanwhile, my salary increased by a little more than 100€ in that same time span. And you're telling me people can't afford decent meals? Oh I fucking wonder why!

Shit on the table
