KDE plasma: A random contributor helped implement a nice little feature that somehow makes you 20% more attractive, nice!

Windows: We’ve killed your cat and replaced it with an AI-generated version that will forever occupy a fourth of your screen.

also it’s not like other vegetables have the energy density of plutonium, aside from the starchy stuff most vegetables have precisely the amount of calories that’s good for you.

but like if this was true, surely i’d hear about it? i also a quick search doesn’t even show any sites that claim it as an aphrodisiac…

you know what also makes you cool? wearing a cowboy hat and chewing on straws of grass

also also: fucking up your lungs makes exercising harder, especially cardio which helps a lot with raising the flag

finns inhale licorice all the time and i can’t say i’ve ever heard of them being particularly raunchy

then again maybe it just brings them back up to a normal level, and that’s why they self-medicate with licorice…

ah, america

swedish gas stations are boring, they’re all clean and boring with completely normal products being sold. Weirdest stuff you’ll find is fuckin o’keeffe’s working hands…

this is also why i actually think hard candy that’s basically just solid sugar, is the best kind.
Because you’re sucking on it and the sugar dissolves into your saliva you get a lot of sweetness that lasts a long time, rather than constantly shoveling stuff into your mouth.

Now, i have no clue how terrible it is for your teeth to soak your mouth in sugar water for hours on end, but it’s not like that doesn’t happen with other candies, and i’d imagine it’s pretty good to avoid chewing on sugar?

i’m convinced the chinese congress finishes every meeting with “let us now read the good word of Sun Tzu: Never interrupt your enemy while they are shitting their pants in public”, pulling up a random news article about the US, and everyone sits there softly giggling for five minutes.

i find swedish healthcare really is the precise opposite of american healthcare, because the american standard seems to be having a dedicated personal doctor whom you can just go to with whatever minor ailment and regular checkups.

But here it costs like 20€ for a visit to the clinic where you meet whatever worker has time at the moment… Even if all you’re doing is getting a super simple hearing test, which literally consists of listening to a pair of headphones and pressing a button when you hear the tone…

so like, how do they expect to get paid?

no true, you might get a token bill of like 100€ which the bog standard insurance probably covers if you just ask about it.

gender/sex too, why the fuck does anyone but a doctor need to know that? not like it’s even correct a lot of the time

it is nice to not cause a stampede because people think a fire broke out

if only there was some sort of product designed specifically to alleviate the need for nicotine when you can’t smoke, like some sort of chewing gum with nicotine in it…

so you’re saying it has bonus functionality?

i only really trust warranties from stores, because they actually have repair departments you can go to, and if both parties decide it’s best to just get you a replacement then they have stock in the store and you can just pick the new one up right away.

it’s so wild to read about how other people treat mattresses, to me they’re like like pillows: i’m not going to spend a lot of money on it and i expect to get a new one every couple years.

i’ve never even understood spring mattresses and all that, just give me a big thick piece of foam and fabric!

it’s such a shame there’s no way to get a child when you’re single, wouldn’t it be great if you could, like… “adopt” a child to care for?
