For me, it’s a cashflow thing. If I use credit that’s one month I do not have to spend my own money on something - it also allows for larger purchases in one place, whereas I might have to move a bunch of money around and wait days if I paid cash.

Credit card companies make their money on merchant fees, the people who get trapped in cycles of debt are just the gravy on top for the fuckers.

We all know the answer is piss

I use em dashes – the entry into any word processor is two dashes, just tell it not to autocorrect to an em-dash.

Salaam Koolio, thank you for your message. There are currently coordinated peaceful protests following the deaths of 6 women highlighting the issues within the Moroccan healthcare system and to raise awareness of corruption. The police response hasn’t always been so peaceful but incidents are outside hospitals and medical facilities and have not been well represented by the media, here or abroad. We are all safe. Thank you so much for your concern. Esther x

I was just in Agadir, I’ll message the host of the place I was at.

But also realize the furigana there is pulling a cursed jutsu - you’re asking it to pull up the “english” (wasei-eigo) reading of a word, and not it’s actual reading.

The practice of using alternate readings is real common in fiction, where the furigana will have the fictional reading and the Kanji explains what it means. Fujino Omori, writer of Dan Machi loves constantly doing that.

The other use of it is as a what is said / subtext. The furigana is what is said, but the kanji is the subtext, like: “ことば” (words) over "告白” (confession).

Do not post a video of yourself getting emotional after receiving targeted harassment, you’ll only be digging a deeper hole.

Usually its being too poor to have a shop fix something for you, and being forced to do it yourself.

Used to buy a book like the Chilton’s manual where it has instructions for performing repairs on your vehicle. They have an online version:

It’s one of those things where Psychiatry could theoretically be a proper discipline, but is instead a state-sponsored regime of quackery to get people to shut up as quickly as possible.

Its also likely field dependent, I have pretty much gotten every professional job I have had through aggregators, its worked for me 4 times now - though latest one was through knowing people.

I must confess, I own 1/20th of a Hectare that I farm. This year I had to uproot thousands (of buckwheat) and put to the grind.

I was making a joke about producing slop and “the libs” at reddit.

First, the term “deeply unserious” which has been used around here for quite a while is starting to percolate out into those spaces, meaning it is waning as in-group language here.

Second, is “Just put the fries in the bag, bub”, is a classist meme about dismissing someone straying from what they are expected to do.

Third is the “dead dove bag” image, which looks a bit like a fast food bag, and implies something is what it says it is and that something is negative to anticlimatic, like opening a bag that says “dead dove inside” and finding a dead dove.

It’s a rather poor joke that your job is producing more slop memes about “the libs”.

Just put the “deeply unserious” in the bag, bub.
