Mildly Interesting@lemmy.world•The contents of a jar of Nutella
712·2 months agoOh god who would do such a thing!?! Next you’d tell me some people would scrape their fingers all around the inside of the jar and lick them making sure they get every last remaining chocolate of that sweet sweet nector of the gods. And even stick their tongue inside, making out style with the jar, making sure no more chocolate taste left 🤤

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is something society treats as normal that you secretly think is completely insane?
0·3 months agoIroning clothes. Maybe this only applies to drier-safe clothes. The drier irons them more than enough. Then it always get balanced between crumbled from wearing and kinda ironed by body heat and such. Regardless if it’s ironed first or not. At least for most of the clothes i wear, even without drier ironing, the body heat thing works fine relatively quickly.
I ran an experiment trying both ways for years to prove it’s a useless waste time. No one was able to tell if i ironed my clothes or not. Because the end results is the same. It’s worst than vanity in my opinion because you’re supposed to be showing something better or more neat or whatever aesthetics you feel. Not if the same results regardless!

World News@lemmy.ml•Merz: Iran should not be protected by international law 🤡
35·3 months ago“In a world where i refuse accountability, we can’t have accountability” is not the good argument he might think it is. Fucking complicit stupid criminals.
And then there’s my friend’s supervisor who asked her why she didn’t include her boyfriend in the dedication since he knew he drove her to her research site few times
I’d take that a step further and say they SHOULD NOT make profits at all. If it makes more money than it needs, lower the price and give the taxes back. Investments in improving public services shouldn’t be attached to the money it makes either. It should just be another part of the expenses regardless, and be a separate tax. Completely detach profits and making money from making everyone’s life better.

World News@lemmy.world•Bob Vylan rapper will not be prosecuted over 'death to the IDF' chantEnglish
252·6 months agoWho said anything about jews? They said idf. A known terroristic organisation. Just because it’s under a Jewish state doesn’t mean you should automatically associate them with all jews. That’s racist/antisemitic/discriminatory/etc. Do you also associate all Muslims with isis? All Americans with ice? That’s a messed up way to think. A small group’s action doesn’t represent everyone related to them. It only represent that group. And the idf is currently committing genocide.
Also, calling for the death of a group is not the same as the death of the people. The idf should be dismantled and everyone involved and complicit should be prosecuted. So yes, death to the idf.
Associating the action of the government of Israel to the jewish people is the most antisemitic thing people can do right now. And the fact that government is doing most of that should enrage you the most for flaring up that hate.
What’s the meaning of 42? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )

Canada@lemmy.ca•Parliamentary petition requesting fed gov't to intervene against provincial anti-trans legislation in AB and SK
13·6 months agoIt’s very ironic (not in a funny way at all) that I’m currently studying the guide about Canada and its laws for a citizenship test, and i barely started studying it, yet I’ve seen Many examples of politicians breaking laws left and right, and pushing and signing legislations that are so obviously against the Canadian charter and the freedom act.
Maybe that test should be a requirement for anyone before they are allowed to take a position of power in the government. It is messed up that the immigrants, which a lot of those nincompoops are against, know way more about Canadian laws than them.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Tent where Charlie Kirk was murdered recreated at Turning Point convention — for selfiesEnglish
181·6 months agoHonestly, this doesn’t feel different to me than using the cross as a holy symbol for Christians. Both are very weird culty behaviours, but not much different. Although at least Christianity has the centuries long traditions, history, and international numbers to justify their behaviour. The tent thing without that context makes it extra weird.


I did need that, thank you.
