  • Half of Canadians favour joining the EU

    Jump

  • Well, you are not wrong. But if you think about it it's still a pretty significant percentage considering Canada is one ocean distant from Europe, and has always had historically relations, economically and politically with the USA, obviously given the fact they share their only border with them. So in my opinion the number gets more weight, maybe. Probably some years ago it was much lower, or they didnt asked themselves the question at all.

  • Two books that made me cry at the end and helped me shape my idea of war and what really is for the common men are "Il sergente nella neve" (the sargent in the snow) by Mario Rigoni Stern, which is about the retreat of the Armir (italian army in Russia) after the second Don offensive by the Red Army from the point of view of Stern, as they started the endless march back to Italy on foot, with the Red Army biting their asses. Almost 80.000 between dead and missing. Amazing piece of literature and yet another reason to despise fascism; and All quiet on the western front, which doesnt need many explanations.

    Absolute chills everytime i think about those books and the images of tragedy and hopelessness they shaped so vividly in my mind.

  • What's your third place? (place that's not work or home)

    Jump

  • Absolutely, finding new spots in a city you've lived for years is very satisfactory :)

  • Based asf, i love to walk too. One of the things i love the most is going in a city i've never been before or i barely know and just lose myself between its streets and discover new cool places and nice views.

  • How did you fuck up recently?

  • I decided it was a good idea to do the mandatory university stage while also working this summer, while also trying to pass my last four exams. I greatly overstimaded my capacities and the trust i should have gave to my employee when they said i would be working just some days a week.

  • What keeps you going?

    Jump

  • The idea that maybe in the future i will be in a better place than now, that i'll be financially stable and i'll work a job that i like and where i can keep a good balance between it and my personal life. (Im beyond delusional)

  • cigarettes rule

    Jump

  • Does nicotine pouches have downsides? I mean what are the collateral effects, cancer etc? I knew that nicotine only caused addiction.

    Nicotine is a hell ofa drug btw, but i just love the gesture of a cigarette. I feel like fucking Sean Connery in 007

  • cigarettes rule

    Jump

  • "this cigarette i deserved. one every now and then i can handle without starting to crave a packet again, i was diligent not smoking for 4 years, and i feel i need a break from the hardship of life" i say to myself watching me spiraling back to the addiction and craving a pack of cigs

    Are we going to refer to americans as "orcs" now?

    Jump

  • A lot of contries other than Iran are filled with religious extremists, including the USA themselves, but you dont see trump striking any of those countries. Again, USA is supplying arms to Israel, that they use to strike civilians to claim a land that is theirs according to a religious book. That alone in your view should be enough to strike both USA and Israel. Religion extremism, terrorism and mysoginism and such are a plague in a lot of countriest, but the USA hit the one that is the biggest threat to thei closest ally. This is just politics, classic imperialist american politics. Nothing more nothing less. And i repeat, im not a fan of Iran either. its just that we cant revert to an international scenery dominated by brute force imo.

  • Yeah, didn't put the /s but sometimes i forget how stupid can online people be and that somebody could really think this way.

  • We can decide to follow a world where diplomacy and international law are the base of cooperation and problem solving, or we just decide to use brute force on everyone that has views or politics we dont like. In history the last one has proved to be very dangerous cause it's open to be interpreted in whatever way the ones in power choose. So yes, Iran it's not in the top 10 of my favourite governments either. For me it's not a reason to bomb it out of nowhere, because we go back to the law of the one with the most power, and as of now i wouldnt trust Trump doing whatever he feels like.

  • No because, you see, they good. They not previously communist, in fact, they hate commies. So very easy, if america do its good and iran deserved it because only us can have nuclear bombs and they cant cause they are brown. Everything was ok according to international law, nothing was violated whatsover, instead russian yes they violated law and all their soldiers are stupid cause they follow blindly the orders of an autoritarian leader which uses poor excuses to pursue economic or political interests. Very different.

    Israel's attacks are not illegal, while Russia has violated international order by its war against Ukraine, says Merkel

    Jump

  • I dont get how, as europe, we still insist to follow every fucking step of that travesty of a country that is the united states. We have the resources to do everything on our own terms and we still do this blatant fucking ass licking of a warmongering bastard and his little fucking friends like israel.

    We dont have the balls to stand up for anything even its blatant violation of international law, of which we pretend to be the biggest defenders. Yeah israel is aleays right and yet again another western violation of sovereignity is justified because iran has nuclear (which israel has since decades) but they would use it bad not like us, good and morally stable.

  • Does your language have animal slangs?

    Jump

  • Very interesting! Yeah it's strange the use of the fly, i'd argue that a cat has a more doubleface aura than a cat. Still pretty cool
