Just as I thought I weren’t a stereotype… oh well…

Yup, just got a Kobo and absolutely love the Pocket integration... I hope some alternative is implemented...

When i die i want my brain plastic to be used for a warhammer figurine!

Can i ask where in the world you're from? I'm personally from Denmark where tattoos are pretty common -- i have some myself. But as i've come to learn, the perception of tattoos differ widely around the world.

Ah okay, thanks for the answer.

I used to be an avid Linux user a couple of years back -- but had to move to macos due to work. I however soon have the freedom to move back soon. Just out of cursiosity, do you know why people are recommending Mint over Ubuntu now?

I have no horse in the race, i'm just curious what changed as when i used Linux last time you would be recommended Ubuntu 95% of the time.

Wait how? I'm not sure i follow - if i committed such a stupid mistake i'm genuinely interested in understanding how :) Btw don't block feddit.dk it's just a danish focused instance with a lot of kind folks :)

Yes -- you should definetely segment away politics from some parts of your life. You should not fully disengage with it, but take a breather every now and then. Go for a walk, talk with some people about a hobby you enjoy despite your differences or just take a prolonged toilet break.

I find it infinitely exhausting that it seems like everything online these days evolves into a political discussion. I recently saw someone asking about how they can make more time for reading in their day -- someone mentioned that they read in the morning when working from home while having their morning coffee. And someone barged in and were like "Oh MuSt Be NiCE to HAve ThE TiMe FOR ThaT! No, soMe of Us Have To CommUTE 2 HouRS each way DaiLY BeCAuSe Of LAte StAGe CaPItalisM". And then it evolved into some revolutionary eat the rich stuff from there -- which i for the most part can follow.

But it was a post about asking how to make more time for reading... How did it end up with revolution? I personally believe the main problem with injecting politics into everything is that it becomes predictable and bland. Just like my example above. It's an interesting discussion for sure! But perhaps don't force it down everyone's throat all the time. It's like that friend who has a hobby that they just wont stop talking about all. the. fucking. time. It dissolves the seriousness of the discussion and makes other people tired of it.

Again, i'm not saying abstain or fully disengage from politics. But for gods sake, let people take a break every now and then if they're able to do so, and for five minutes just focus on something joyful eventho everything is going to shit at the moment.
