What are you talking about all my pants have giant pockets that the whole phone fits in with room to spare

Parts of you probably will 👍

There are some aspects of life that make me wish I was born at a different time than I was, and other things I like now that I wouldn’t want to do without. I don’t think it’s as black and white if an issue as this makes it seem.

Maybe I’m missing some context here but I would probably just say “Russian” or “French” 🤷‍♂️

I’d say it’s really up to you at this point. In your own head do you think of yourself as a French person or Chilean or Brazilian? What does your internal monologue sound like to you? Which of these cultures do you mostly identify with? Which history do you feel is your own?

At the end of the day is a specific label something you actually want, or is it something you think you need to show to other people?

Which one is that? That sounds like an even better idea!

It’s called “Alarm Clock Xtreme & Timer” but I do use it on android

I had to download an app on my phone where I can set multiple alarms for this exact reason! The first one goes off at 8am, then another one plays every half hour until I get up. It has an “extreme” setting for heavier sleepers where it keeps getting louder until you solve a math equation to turn it off again, but I only use that for special occasions lol

From Wikipedia:

The English word artichoke was borrowed in the sixteenth century from the northern Italian word articiocco (the standard modern Italian being carciofo). The Italian term was itself borrowed either from Spanish alcarchofa (today usually alcachofa) or directly from the source of the Spanish word—medieval Andalusi Arabic الخرشوفة (al-kharshūfa, including the Arabic definite article al). The Arabic form kharshūfa is still used in Maghrebi Arabic today, while other variants in Arabic include kharshafa, and Modern Standard Arabic khurshūfa. These Arabic forms themselves derive from classical Arabic حرشفة (harshafa) singular word of the plural حراشف (ḥarashef) meaning “scale”. Other languages which derive their word for the artichoke from Arabic include Israeli Hebrew, which has the word חֻרְשָׁף (khursháf). The original Hebrew name (see Hebrew: he:ארטישוק) is קינרס kinars, which is found in the Mishna.

The ongoing destruction of democracy and rise of a new Nazi dictatorship/theocracy seems like it kind of encapsulates all the recent news stories lately

Every once in a while the cable company where I lived would unscramble it at random times, and it always felt like Christmas came early lol

It must be a website thing, I can’t see it in either Jerboa or Boost

I don’t see any kind of face next to your post

Any song fully created by AI should be required to be labeled as such. Like in the writing credits it should say “all instruments and vocals created by AI, no actual artists were involved in any part of its production”

It should also be noted in the songs title so no one listens to it by accident

A song fully created by AI has no artistic merit and exists solely to generate income for someone with no actual musical ability.

When I’m feeling really down I have to either build something or fix something. It’s really the only way I’ll start to feel better. Somehow building models or working on cross stitch or taking apart an appliance to find out why it doesn’t work makes everything feel kind of “normal” again.

The very thought of old bananas packed in sugary syrup makes me want to throw up in my mouth 🤢

In what context? This question is far too vague to give you any sort of useful answer, which I’m guessing you’ve done on purpose. If you want to start an argument just come out and say what you mean instead of trying to bait people with these oversimplified questions that have no real definitive answers.

I have no idea who that is. The fact that I don’t see any posts by them means I probably blocked the profile because they were making massive numbers of posts.

Why don’t you just block Nicole?

In antiquity people probably considered it a form of fire since anything struck by lightening tends to burn or at least get extremely hot? Or possibly they saw it as some combination of wind and fire maybe?
