I know I don't try hard enough but I seem to have some kind of mental block from studying. I just cannot get started. I would literally rather stare into the damn ceiling.
Might have missed the study subject. I just cannot force myself to study the math. I probably should have switched to studying linfuistics or something 2 years ago.
I will still try my hardest to get my maths done in a couple days but if that fails....
Ah I see. So kinda similar to what happened to Gorica and the surroundings of Trst hut even worse because there weren't many Italians in Tyrol in the first place.
You could have just made fries in the oven. They taste the same. That's how I always do it. Honestly cannot remember the last rime I actually fried something.
What do you mean by always? The birth control makes sense because it's much harder to do it for men because sperm is constantly being produced and women only release 1 egg per month. What other ways do women have to mess up their bodies?
I know it has many side effects. My girfriend suffered many of them when she was taking the pill and I had to beg her to stop because it just was not worth it.
And fuck off of course it's easier to stop ovulation than sperm production. It's a numbers game. Also not like I fucking made hormonal birth control. What we have now is bad and you can go ahead and find a better alternative with less side effects. That does not mean the new birth control should also have side effects. Take issue with the people that approved the current ones.
What I meant is that it's easier to ensure it works being a numbers game. If you constantly have new sperm being made it's way harder to shut that down consistently than to stop one egg releasing once per month.

Not the same guy but yes, all mushrooms. I once had pizza with some mushrooms (took them off of course) that left enough of a taste on the pizza itself I almost puked from eating one slice. I cannlt stomach the taste
I will never understand people calling your palate uncultured just because you don't like olives. I am with you on this one though, the taste just is not to my liking.
I think that is a really American thing though. I have never been to a place that had plastic cutlery and single use flatware. Sure some oprn air kitchens and festivals and such. But there is not really a better option for that
Ah. Honest mistake on my part. I missed this being a Canadian community. I am from Europe and have only seen plastic dishware and cutlery when I went to the US 2 times.
The main problem is that even if I myself literally stopped existing right now thus reducing any and all pollution I generate, that would still not change the fact that the largest pollutants are big mega corporations and one single person really has no noticeable effect.
I know. It's dumb as hell. Just like everything being priced at 4.99 instead of 5.00. people are just stupid and it seems to wprk out for the companies.
