Our local library has a table with young plants for exchange. I love it!

I used to feel bad about reaching milestones and “succeeding at life” because I was mourning a friend who could not reach those milestones with me. Therapy helped a lot.

It might be hard for them to find someone who is both fluent in english AND knows the field well enough to know vegetative electron microscopy is not a thing. Most universities have one general translation help service and science has a lot of field-specific weird terms.

As a european, I follow the us shitshow partly because it influences our politics and lives and partly because I feel sympathy for all the people suffering because of it. Mostly however, I follow it because it is ~70% of the content on lemmy. If I had tiktok I would have liked the speech there.

I will spell out aluminium, but when I have to pronounce it I go with aluminum.

I chose to not have children mainly for the environment. My partner just doesn’t like the idea of having children. However, I know a lot of leftist people that have/want children.

I’m just hoping this story will reach more people because she is a western european (nothing to do with looks or gender) and will get people to pay attention to all the horrible stuff happening to a lot of people in these detention centers.

It is a smiley face… sorry for the bad quality

I have the exact same issue! Haven’t met anyone else with the same problem yet. Really sucks that more and more non-diet drinks are containing some amount of artificial sweetener.

Are annual welness exams common in the us? I’ve only ever gone to the doctor when somethings wrong. Presumably urgent cases can still be booked within a few days?

It sounds like you’ve been through a lot and I’m sorry your life has been so hard. I hope you find a way to talk to someone (preferably a therapist) about your difficulties and find a way to live a good life beyond your troubles.

Does that require you to watch via vpn all the time or just when you make the account?

I misread “Sanaa” as Santa and I was not even surprised, like of course Israel is blocking kids there from getting presents. Unsurprisingly, reality is even worse.

I think you underestimate how long 20 years is. But yes, in europe we usually try to improve someone while in prison so we get back a funtioning member of society, not enslave them for life like in the US.

It’s the maximum sentence in france, I believe.

The person giving out the papers would be the dishonest one in this case. He could grab papers for himself or hand out more than one to a friend.

I am dutch and I have never heard of this issue/myth. Even tour de grance cyclists manage to have kids just fine after 20 years of full time cycling, so I wouldn’t worry.

What subject do you want to create a bibliography for?

Imagine if the guy who named movies with sound talkies also named movies… wait … oh no…
