My best guess is they mean that leftists tend to prefer abandoning mainstream social media platforms than fighting against the right on them. Hence Facebook, twitter etc turning full right wing while we find refuge in places like here.

Like when they suddenly decided every single function of the car including those you’re expected to operate while driving should be under 4 sub-menus on a touch screen you need to look at.

Either that or folks will happily shovel the slop into their eyeballs and lose all critical thinking ability. It’s a toss-up.

The French use “Visio” kinda like a generic term to talk about a video call (short for visio-conférence), I find that much better already than that W nonsense.

Instead of cutting it off at a right angle you cut it at an angle. Personally I’m French and yeah I know of the technique but I’m not the biggest fan necessarily. Works best if you’re making 2 sandwiches out of 1 baguette and fill it up first before doing the middle cut.

Political suicide to wear an eye patch in France since you’d be immediately associated with Jean-Marie Lepen, the former far right leader (marine’s dad).

Yeah, if it warms enough that the gulf stream goes poof, Europe will get much colder winters.

Fuck yeah I’m still young!!

Wasn’t even in Belgium but in France near the border and there was one of these shops setup in a kinda temporary thing on the highway. Still felt a bit peckish after the tiny triangle sandwich so ordered a small fry, was greeted with not much less than pictured here haha. Had to share them to get through it.

Can’t wait for variable mortgage rates, but on mars.

I’m mostly joking, I think it’s great if we can become space farers, just can’t help but think about what we did the last time we were out colonizing…

Yeah I don’t think that helps them make the point they thought they were making lol.

French cinema world busy updating all their leaderboards about best paid actors etc.

My family has been in that area he’s moved to for a couple generations. It’s really nice and it’s the south, but it’s very far away from the busy/fancy parts of the côte d’azur. I can definitely see why they’d choose going there. The only downside to this whole region is it votes pretty right wing and you can sometimes feel it in conversations with the locals, but since I’m sure they’re still pretty insulated they probably don’t feel that.

Yeaaaaaah.

At the moment unless you have some really rare stuff the numismatic value is generally less than the gold itself, I know for sure at least with standard “Napoleon” coins that is the case.

First names still haven’t let me down to this date, and I’ve done phone work in the past.

What a headache, as a non-American just reading this makes my frontal lobe hurt.

The shorts are so close to her skin colour I thought it was even worse than that.

Liquid lunch.

Unforeseen is pretty clear, by definition, that they’re things we wouldn’t be able to predict until they happen. I agree with the general sentiment in this thread btw, using genetics to prevent hereditary conditions or otherwise improve the human condition sounds great on paper but it’s risky business.
