Photography. I bought a second hand camera body, a couple of adapters and have been building up a roster of cheap old 70s-80s lenses. I can bring my camera whenever I go out, or go on more specific photography walks. It makes me look at things more closely, and therefore enjoy them more.

Whenever I’ve brought my camera to events and gatherings, the response has been very positive and people really enjoy the photos being “artistic” and “dream-like” (on account of the imperfect vintage lenses and my often poor manual focusing).

It’s been a fun journey of discovering what lenses I most enjoy using. For me it’s been either 40-45mm for walking around snapshots or 180-200mm for portraiture.

Maybe I’ll get some more modern gear some day, but then I’ll know exactly what I want, and have the skill to use it to the fullest.

NK and China are garbage shitholes pretending to be civilised.

They promoted the slop-machine with “Scandinavian apartment” didn’t they?

Yes. It’s a clear sign that someone is… well, slow.

Burn Moscow to the ground 👍

Not really. Just like no one gets offended when Japan use squid ink in burger buns, or put noodles in a baguette/hot dog bun.

This is horrible advice for someone who is obviously not “neurotypical”.

You could probably try to talk about your favourite anime, or Sonic the hedgehog. I’m sure you’ll find you have lots in common!

Pirates are likely to have the better experience.

I rarely have issues with deliveries, but the odd times I have had issues I’ve been refunded in full to my card and received coupons for my troubles. No questions asked.

Most of my issues have been with the restaurants themselves. I have a very specific yet easily avoidable food allergy. So when I find said ingredient liberally sprinkled on top of my food for decoration, I know the restaurant simply didn’t read my order.

Damn. You are trash.

You’re over thinking it. These people are not Tolkien fans. They are fans of believing themselves “very smart” by claiming the bad guys are actually the good guys, because the bad guys tried to destroy the status quo. They want a world where they can do whatever they want with no consequence. Any law that binds them is seen as oppression.

It’s basically just a law to allow companies hiring cheap immigrant labour to threaten them with deportation if they get any ideas about fair compensation.

Let’s not forget that it was a right wing government who opened the gates for unregulated immigration by essentially scrapping all rules regarding it and telling us to “open our hearts”.

This is a neo-liberal government supported by neo-nazis.

Fascists trash helping fascist trash. Then uneducated children go around and call China communist or socialist? Fucking morons…

I think it might be because I mostly wear wool and linen clothing (including underwear). Body odour is mostly bacteria and wet cotton is excellent growing grounds for them. I often have people (mostly women) tell me I smell great and ask what schampo/bodywash i use. Thing is I use the most basic perfume-less one.

I honestly didn’t think deodorant was stil a thing since I decoupled from advertising. I’m a man who can cook and eat well so apparently I smell great even if I go a couple of days without showering sometimes.

Road traffic? Great! Drivers are less productive and scientifically worse people than non-drivers.

Hate speech laws are fascist. As in, they are laws that differentiate between people. Some are protected but not beholden, while others are beholden but not protected. These laws are already used to protect cultist child abusers from criticism.

Society really needs to realise that these are racist cultists who sexually mutilate children.
