I’ve never seen “explanation” spelt with a “k” rather than an “x” but otherwise it seems easy to read.

I don’t mind your style of written English, it’s putting the fun back into phonetic.

Wunderbar.

I forgot that the really bad stuff gets scrubbed even from the modlog…

What tf is wrong with people who’re posting stuff like that…? Oh yes, I remember, they’ve found a place where people are happy and want to destroy it. I’m pretty confident Ada and Blahaj have more than enough to deal with as it is.

Thanks for any contribution you make to modding or letting people know when the bad stuff shows up.

Yes.

From my own personal view I find it very difficult to disagree with every part of your second sentence.

Espadrille?

If you really really really want to know you can go look at blahaj’s mod log - but I warn you that some of the stuff removed can be particularly mean, obscene, illegal etc…

Removed by mod

I browse… Twitter, 9gag, 4chan, BlueSky, Lemmy and Mastodon. I find a mixed bag of cunts and diamonds on all of them - and loads of people in between.

The world is not as black and white as you see it.

Perhaps you might try sorting the wheat from the chaff next time before you make definitive sweeping statements about various platforms.

Jesus Fucking Christ man… is this really how you see the world?

My almost five year old piece of under powered apple trash cost me less than 45 US cents a day, still has regular OS updates and works between eight to ten hours most days running my entire life. I might even splurge out and buy a new one if they ever release an overpowered non trash handset…

It does… but could be a kagoule / pac-a-mac.

Thanks for the update. I’ve put an edit in my post so I’ll stop spreading misinformation.

There is a novel that improves the reading experience. I’ve never read it but by all accounts it certainly succeeds as a book; if nothing else.

The only time a brand should really matter is for critical use. Unbranded defibrillator? No thanks. Going mountaineering? Don’t buy from temu. Motorbike helmet? Not from Shein.

That’s, uh, not really left leaning… is it?

Funnily enough I wondered about the whole “Jews have big noses” thing myself whilst reading and replying.

Interesting. I’m happy with that.

You also make the good point that tropes, stereotypes, generalisations etc often say more about the people who use them then the people they’re aimed at.

I’ve got no idea why German and English seem to have flipped the trope. I hope someone else can provide an answer here.

I knew about the whiteness, obesity (and body odour?) but the long noses is new to me. Kind of makes sense, there they are, sticking out of your face for everyone to see.

Sadly I can believe that.
