Hey wait a minute I resemble this strawman

Personally quite like reading things in other languages, just like a paragraph or so, and then checking my comprehension afterwards with an online translator. Only really partially works for Western European languages though!

Sounds like your aunt was projecting from what little you’ve said.

I still disagree but can understand your perspective.

I think your definition of addiction here is very narrow and most people would think that if there are withdrawal symptoms like you describe then that would qualify as an addiction.

I guess “clinical addiction” might mean an addiction which requires clinical intervention but I could imagine a hoarder who is “addicted” to collecting junk who requires a psychiatrist to break their pattern of compulsive behaviour.

Yes but primarily via RSS feeds to keep up with news

Unciv is a great demake of Civilization 5

Freeciv Unciv on Android is an almost feature complete re-creation of Civilization 5 with minimal graphics. You can also download the JAR and run it on a desktop if you have a Java SDK installed. As a Civ player that started with 4, I found it easier to pick up than freeciv which is trying to replicate something more like Civ2.

Edit: provide correct name

Honestly I don’t try to change my older relatives’ minds on things. After a certain point your views about life/politics get fixed and then that becomes part of your identity.

Fortunately I don’t know any scrum masters personally so they would not even get the experience of being let down last time by a dev. Exceot in a purely metaphorical sense I guess.

Letting down people I love somehow

Controversial one: I thought Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas was a bad book. And I liked Thompson’s Hell’s Angel’s book that he wrote prior. The metaphors like “the great wave” of hippiedom coming from the west which crashed and receded make up about 0.1% of the contents and are not that interesting. The rest could be extremely niche satire I’m missing since I wasn’t alive in the 70s but I doubt it. For the most part it reads like a blog post on one of the 90s drugs forums where someone has just boofed meth or something.

When I saw them in the wild their faces were covered in tumours. Sure would have been cute without those though. I think our tour guide might have said it was due to intra floral/fauna contamination between species like these who were historically isolated.

This sounds extremely plausible. I am culinarily challenged.

In scotland I would have no fuckin idea where to get it lol

seems like it would be hard to track down to me but idk

Someone got fired making an “inspirational” Andrew Tate inspired speech on slack about how depression doesn’t actually exist. This was on a company wide channel about promoting/raising awareness for mental health issues. Two comments prior someone had described in heartbreaking detail how their stepchild had committed suicide last year.
