Nothing you said inferred credibility unto Russian sources, I just wanted to add my take on the bigger picture.

Which is, that Ukrainian reporting is probably not 100% correct and there probably are inflations somewhere (like you said), it is still bound to reality, while Russian reporting lost its touch with reality on day one.

I guess its a knee jerk reaction to all the tankies defending russia lol

At least what Ukraine is claiming is somewhat based in reality compared to what russia claims.

According to russian sources, russia has destroyed some vehicle and plane types in higher numbers than ukraine ever had, yet Ukraine still has some.

Weird how that works.

I just use some cheapo liquid chain wax on my bike and I dont clean my chain very often, I just put some new wax on the chain when it gets just even slightly squeaky. I have noticed that almost no dirt stays on the drivetrain with wax, it just falls off after a few km. Everything stuck to the chain when using oil, so its an improvement and I dont spend nearly as much effort on it as you do.

Bad Management and upper level decision makers probably don’t help either.

Best thing is, when you finally do do the thing, everyone is going to be surprised. And you can say that you did tell them that you would do it.

Ask me how I know.

Here in Germany the forum culture is still somewhat alive, social media did take a big cut though.

Only put a tax on vacant homes where there is an active housing crisis, rural areas should be excluded

Except Steam never deletes games that you already own or takes them away from you for other reasons.

Yes, they could do that in the future but its the one company where that is unlikely.

That sign looks too much like the sign for the “verkehrsberuhigter Bereich” sign in in my opinion.

On the official YouTube App or Website the thumbs up button goes from a white outline to solid white when you click it, thats why he thought you did.

That isnt without risks itself and it might not have been practically possible in some cases.

Would you desert if your family gets sent to a concentration camp when the army finds out?

Well, during the war ukraine has no choice but to kill the russian soldiers if they want to win.

But I think that ukraine treats POW fairly well and if the war ends they probably wouldnt force them to work in Gulag conditions.

Just because they were soldiers doesnt mean they were nazis. A lot of them were drafted and at the end of the war even teenagers were sent to the frontline because all the other young men were already fighting or dead.

If a soldier was part of the SS or SA, he was a nazi.

I think it is because the exhaust is much cleaner than with diesel or gasoline.

We will never live in an ideal world, we can only approach it.

So, yeah, I wasnt referring to reality.

Change it out for a lack of positive perspective for the future and you might even be right.

Thats maybe why the empty promises work to begin with.

This kind of right wing populism has sadly arrived here in Europe as well. Here in Germany we have the AFD which basically does the same thing.

My mother, her boyfriend and my brother have sadly also fallen into the right wing disinformation trap, it really sucks, its like a thought virus.

At least I still have my other half of the family whith which I can still have some political discussions where everyone enjoys doing it and its more about smaller details and how to turn the theory into practice.

I think it is because having sex is such an inimate thing and as a sex worker you have to do it even with people you are not intimate with and at times when you dont want to be intimate. The sheer number of sex partners probably also doesnt help.

And then there are the assholes who will straight up step over boundaries and directly create trauma.

I live in Germany where sex work legal btw (and I think it should be kept that way).

Comparing the risks to other work is hard, as the risks vary from person to person and from workplace to workplace in each job.

But I would consider doing sex work if I would have to work in a callcenter otherwise lol

In an ideal world people who just want casual sex would find each other. And people who want love as well. In an ideal world everyone would also have someone they are an ideal match to.

The only way I see people getting paid to have sex in an ideal world is if they get paid because their sex is so good, like top athletes.

I thought that people with darker skin dont need it that much compared to people with lighter skin, especially people with really white skin that instantly get sunburn?
