I think he is one of the stops on the granola to MAGA pipeline now, if you’re into woo woo spirituality babble and are politically ignorant he is there to lead you down a path.

There’s others as well, even without the aid of Brand that’s a well known pipeline. At least for me. I know several girls who went from slightly pissy and into spiritual bs to pretty much HC right-wing.

Yes.

And I was old enough to remember going to the movies in 1995.

Not by myself, but dad took us to see some.

Right wing?

Really?

I mean I haven’t followed the guy’s politics at all, I just know him from some British panel show appearance from like 15-20 years ago.

Obnoxious, but I would’ve guessed far left instead of right wing.

Yeah I believe this as well, since a coordinated firing of arrows would be more effective, and because still today military commands largely consist of a prepatory phase and an executing phrase.

Like

"Company… ATTENTION"

"EEEEEYEEEEES… RIGHT.

“Preseeeent… ARMS”

etc

So it’d make sense. The commander just basically gives the tempo, but the commander knows what it feels like to do it, so you don’t get shit like “draw”… [extender pieces of dramatic faces and dialogue which symbolises a loaded gun held to someones face] and then “loose” /relax, because drawing a war bow takes some serious fucking muscle. So the “draw, loose”, would almost be in the same breath. Almost. But one breath apart. But so the voice synchronises them all. Just like it does with steps in modern militaries.

One still needs a person besides the form goin “left, left, left right left” to achieve the uniformity. Well from a well experienced group, less so, but you still need the starting “company… march” command to sync the starting step at least.

You’re implying there’s some gaslighting going on but Europeans really don’t see the American body type of… wider than taller, despite how piggy they are.

My old man was a drunk and enjoyed food immensely, did not diet a day in his life. And when he drove a sort of train for the Moomin theme park and saw some American tourists, he was utterly shocked.

We’ve round diabetics in Finland as well, but honestly the fattest ones I’ve seen barely come close to this guy.

Well I’m not American and it felt pretty spot on, so idk.

a Polish person will pronounce every finnish word correctly and a Finnish person will pronounce most of Polish words correctly.

I’m Finnish and I’ve had a Polish friend for 15 years and I can say you’re most definitely mistaken.

You are saying you never read two vowels in a row?

No. I’m saying the ones which are umlauted don’t go with their umlauted partners. You can äiti easily. That’s mom. But you can’t have Äati. That’s not a word. Ä + a don’t go together.

I may be wrong because of how flexible Finnish is, but I don’t think a Finnish word exists where there is either äa oe öo combination. Äo maybe, but not likely. (edit def no äo either, just not a thing, I checked the exceptions and now I’m sure)

Its something calmed vowel harmony, which is sort of why I don’t see Polish as being any where near Finnish. The amount of consonants you guys use is unnatural to a Finnish person.

Finnish pronunciation is definitely not a “subset of Polish”. Polish is a PIE-language. We’re not even in the same language tree bro.

As a man, men think women care about looks more than they do.

Looks are much bigger for men than for women.

Obviously a massive generalisation, but in general. Like “men are physically stronger than women”. Not all men are stronger than women but…

Anyway.

Looks really don’t matter that much. I’d say women pay more attention to personality with the same difference as there is between how much men value looks vs how women value looks.

Also, if I was being very crude, I’d say “status” is the “looks” for women. That’s what you get very beautiful women with older rich men more than you do young hot men with old riches women.

But I’d like not to be crude so disregard that last bit.

coöperation.

I come from Poland and we read in a consistent way.

Okay I don’t doubt yours is consistent, but it’s really hard to grasp. I come from Finland and in the Nordics you would never get oö öo aä or äa combinations I’m pretty sure. Å can go with a but a doesn’t really go with ö I don’t think and uhm.

Anyways my point is I’ve no idea how you would go about trying to pronounce coöperation. Or rather what your idea of it is.

I’d couldn’t argue which is more constant, but Finnish is every consistent. And pretty much in line with IPA.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:IPA/Finnish

hevonen [ˈheʋonen]

hernekeitto [ˈherneˌkːei̯tːo]

tule! [ˈtuˌle]

Example of words with their IPA pronunciation. When something like “geography” in English is “ʤɔ́grəfɪj”.

Those don’t look alike at all. So I’m sure polish can be consistent, but to me at least, I’d be afraid of how complex that consistency is.

In Finnish wr say “kentauri” and in ipa that’s pretty much the same.

In Finnish we say kentauri and you can go ahead and imagine Japanese pronunciation for it and it’s mostly the same. Finnish is just more neutral in tone imo

I may be biased because moped culture here (as in a vehicle 50cc or smaller, not necessary one with pedals anymore) in Finland has always been a big thing imo.

One of the “classic” models that were from the previous generations was a “pappa moped” which had pedals and had a connotation of being favoured by older gentlemen who don’t want to/can’t drive a car anymore (a moped doesn’t require a licence from anyone born before -85, but if you got a DUI and licence was taken away you’d be in a ban to drive so then driving a moped would be illegal as well.)

They’re allowed to go 45km/h legally but they go pretty much 50 and people tune them to go ~60 usually. Some even up to a hundred but those were crazy dangerous cobbled up machines. And zero gear aside from helmets and some old leather jackets lol

Is this the first time you’ve been made aware of mopeds, as in a vehicle with a MOtor and PEDals?

How about Goldeneye? Two computer people in main roles and I don’t think either can be really called autistic.

Boris is sure interesting, but not autistic. Maybe dips into the spectrum at most.

Such crude racism.

And it explains why Indian customer service agents always use European names. I don’t want to come off as racist but sometimes I have been amused by a heavy Indian accent introducing themselves with a very traditional European name.

It shouldn’t be funny, because it’s all because of racism and imperialism and colonialism.

But I can’t help being amused sometimes when I’m drunk. I shouldn’t. But I have been.

Fuck racism.

I always answer unknown numbers.

I don’t get scam calls or marketing calls. I’ve had a marketing ban on this number and it has never been listed and it’s about 25 years old or so. Like maybe once or twice I put it somewhere and got calls offering gym memberships for a while but that was a single place and I told them I have a marketing ban on my number so they stopped. It genuinely works to a very reasonable degree here in Finland. It’s not perfect but nothing is.

So when an unknown caller calls me it’s usually a doctor or some such thing I actually do need to reply to. During the daytime. At night it’s the police or fellow criminals.
