  • Yeah I’ve seen those somewhere and always thought they’d be horrible to use. They remind me of what these used to somewhat be like, when they were made of hard plastic and the flow wasn’t as smooth as with that sort of rubbery end. Like a hard plastic one would be good at first but after years it’d strart shooting beams all willy nilly.

    These are great and genuinely in like 95% of Finnish toilets. Even public toilets usually have one stall with a small sink just so it has one of these.

    I wasn’t going to criticize your fingers

    Are you sure?


  • Idk man I’ve had massive bowel issues since forever and that’s sort of why I’ve come to love it. See it’s not a full blast. There’s nothing tearing at my arse.

    First I need to turn on my tap, and the pressure I open the tap with is how much pressure the bidet shower gets. Then the bidet shower also has a trigger, so you’re not even blasting the full pressure of tap. You could put the tap on a drip and then only slightly press the trigger on the bidet shower head. Ofc that would result in nothing, but if you open the tap about half and then spray your arse with about half that, it’s like the gentlest stream that you can still nicely direct and isn’t going everywhere

    Ill go an take a photo after posting this then edit it on my phone to add the photo

    Edit, see, very gentle stream

    off

    Push trigger halfway gentle.

    Put if I were to put some more pressure on, you can see the difference

    also pls don’t criticise the cleanliness of my sink I just washed my bong



  • Well this was like at most 2-4 years earlier than that, so around the same time.

    I’m not even American. I’m Finnish. I don’t think you’d understand how prevalent racism here is. Like even the stereotypical hippie girls, you know? Like it’s a sort of somewhat casual racism, but it’s very deep in the society.

    My therapist who’s British originally told me how he was in a sauna one day and the discussion turned to something political and that the people just threw out the n-word so casually. And this was like just this year, uh, last year I mean.

    Yeah the “sand n” word is used her as well, pfff.

    Like genuinely I’ve gotten into a lot of trouble for calling people out for those things. Which is like… honestly. I get looked down on for saying that we shouldn’t use racial slurs? Like genuinely, you’ll get more disgusted looks in Finland by saying “you shouldn’t use the n-word” then you would by saying the n-word. Perhaps it’s different in the capital area and the younger gens? I fucking hope it is.


  • Bro.

    When I was about that age, in Finland, and we were in the Mayday fair, my dad bought me a literal black face, as in a rubber mask that covered your face and was EXTREMELY racist, with like the worst 19th century racist drawing of a generic sub-Saharan African you could think of. The whole 9 yards. No. 900 yards.

    I found the mask like a few years ago while we were cleaning out grandmas house and man, the shame I felt. shudder

    I think it’s fine to dress up as characters of other ethnicities. But just don’t do blackface. If no-one “gets” your costume because you didn’t do blackface, then it’s a shit costume, but at least you weren’t being racist. If people get it and you aren’t wearing black-face, what’s the problem?


  • People say “lol”, but they don’t mean it.

    People say “lol” and they often mean “I forcefully exhaled a little bit.”

    When I saw this meme, I literally did a vocal “aah-ah-ha-ha-haa”.

    I’m going to identify as more of a problem than I already do if they come for anyone trans. I already live in a country where trans people are pretty rare though but I’ll just protect the ideal if there’s no actual trans people to protect. (Aside from myself and I’m really not comfortable taking that identity for myself with the amount sexual fluidity that I have though I do recognize having some.)

    But see we already got the base unit of a second for time. But for generations, perhaps?

    One kilomother would’ve been the early modern human, roughly. Ten kilomothers ago homo sapiens was just coming into being. A hundred kilomothers ago homo erectus would’ve just been coming into existence. A megamother ago we would’ve been diverging into great apes.

    You can probably propose a new SI-base unit of “a mother”, but what does it measure?

    “Metric” just essentially comes from “metering”. People confuse “metric” with “decimal”, which is sort of the point of the person I replied to. While metric time technically exists insofar as you just use seconds as the base unit, omit minutes and hours and just do SI-prefixes, the French did also try decimal time, but it was just horrible.

    So if “mother” was the base unit and it measured something, in this instance time, the advent of agriculture was roughly four hectomothers ago. Or 0.4 kilomothers, if you will.


  • I was just on a website that gave a warning when trying to accept only necessary.

    So I’m sure some less informed people just conform instead of thinking or even maybe reading the warning.

    These cookie things are the epitome of asshole design. Hidden “legitimate interest” weird colours for on/off, I can’t even be arsed to list it all.

    Impotent as in “unable”, like how you are unable to stand behind your own words? How you’re unable to accept that using “hero” isn’t gendered language in modern English?

    edit ruahahhaha now you’re doing it again? Blocking and unblocking because you want to delude yourself you haven’t taken a massive L? Who do you think would look at this thread and believe you forgot the thing I’ve pasted in pretty much every single reply? :D




  • It’s funny you think you’re “hiding” this by the generic responses.

    Anyone visiting your profile will see your toddler tantrum. We call it itkupotkuraivari in Finnish. “kick-scream-rage-seizure”

    And youre having one because you said something that isn’t true, something you were wrong about :(

    But your ego can’t handle it :(((

    edit aaand he blocked me, like I said. So here’s a reply to the comment below, because I know you’re gonna come back to unblock me to pretend you never even did. Like I said, I’ve seen your tantrum a thousand times. :D::
