Mostly on Mastodon, but trying out Lemmy and enjoying it a lot.
I use them for running during winter and that’s a non issue.
The retirees don’t last so long (sorry), but overtourism is indeed a problem. Finding the right balance is the secret but clearly our politicians are not aiming for that… but in fairness, tourism was fantastic for many years to promote Porto’s renewal. But now it’s time to put a break on it but no one is interested in that :/
You can buy very decent wine for less than 3€/bottle in any Portuguese supermarket 😅
Japan is probably the cleanest country I’ve ever been to and you rarely see a bin on the street. Easily accessible bins promote carelessness with the trash you produce. If there are no bins you need to think ahead and plan how you’ll dispose of your trash.
It already is. The doubt is when will it “sell voluntarily” Siberia to China.
That’s clearly a residential area if someone would hit their cars it would happen either way… you’re supposed to drive slowly there.
With that mentality the Second World War would be a very different story.
And more are welcome. The war on cash must stop. Shopping should be a private matter.
I’ll never put invader and invaded on the same plate, ever. I find dangerous to even suggest it. A war is not fair and it’s not pretty by definition, Russia started it and can stop it at any moment. Enough said.
Oh America, come on:
end (and stop exporting) that vicious tipping culture of yours. Just pay decent wages to people in customer service.
change the design of yours bills, make them easily recognizable, with different colors and sizes like normal curencies.
take religion out of the money.
and since I’m at it, end gun culture and disarm your people. Also SUVs, end that too. And introduce controlled prices in health services, regulate, regulate, regulate, till it becomes a functional system affordable by everyone.
Thanks. I would love you so much more.
Why should Ukraine be Jesus? Always being hit and strictly hitting back only within their borders. Makes no sense. Russia destroyed airports, dams, energy plants, schools and hospitals for more than a year. A drone attack in an airport in Moscow is more than justified at this point.
Wake up Russians, don’t want war then stop it now while you can.
Ahah I mean it’s an obvious idea, it might be hot now but… winter is coming.
Swedes pilling up Qurans for the winter to save on wood in 1, 2…
The original ones.
Did I say that? Did I say they’re the only ones? I didn’t. I said that that extra pollution serves no good purpose. It’s for a status symbol and it’s not just in the US. Of course it’s not the only thing killing the planet but it’s the easiest thing to cut, and not even that is being cut.
This car is a status symbol. It’s completely over dimensioned. It pollutes much more, without any added value in transport, harming air quality (people’s health) and climate, it diminishes other’s views on the road, it diminishes driver’s own view of a child crossing the road, it kills much more easily any unfortunate pedestrian. it’s a very strong statement of “fuck everyone else but me”, damaging this car count as self-defense.
Value the freedom to burn corans in Sweden and Denmark. Thousands of people suffer horrible punishments and even death for so much less across the Muslim world. The least we can do in the privileged west is to show them that blasphemy is possible and “God” doesn’t punish anyone. Its zealots know it, they also don’t trust god to punish the infidels, they take the business in their own hands.
I don’t have much hopes for the average African leader… many of them will by this. Europe should definitely focus help and investments on the few African nations with reasonable leaders that don’t treat Europe as the threat and Russia as the friend. Investing one cent in the countries with leaders educated in the former USSR is a waste of ressources, they’re brainwashed since youth. We need to separate the wheat from the chaff.
Padeira de Aljubarrota. A Portuguese baker from the 1300’s, a though lady, could easily kill a man with her hands (and did a few times), was kidnapped and enslaved in Northern Africa, manage to escape with her bare hands, helped out 2 other Portuguese guys to escape, stole a boat, sailed back with the guys, had a prob with one of them, killed him. Tried to establish herself in a honest way, but crime and murder were always coming her way somehow, ended up moving towns do to that. Met and older lady friend, a baker, that wanted to maker her an honest person. They lived happily as a couple. Older lady dies, she inherits the bakery. Castille tries to occupy Portugal, big battle, Portugal is outnumbered but manages to have a spectacular win. Some castillans are running around and looting. She lures 7 into her bakery, cooks them alive in her oven. Forever a national hero and legend.
Nothing of this is proven, including the Castillans she killed (which is the factoid that made her a hero) but there’re even songs about her and whenever Portugal plays against Spain in football you’ll see some people dressed as a baker on the stadium.
A lesbian serial-killer who escapsed enslavement to kill Castillans in one of the most important battles of our history? To me nothing can be truer than this, independently of what you can prove or not.
The constant attacks against Israel and it’s increasing isolation only probs Zionists right. Jews can only trust themselves for their own defense and need a state for that (that’s what Zionism is). People like you feed Zionism everyday.
