I know in Germany murder is still murder if the murdered person consented to it.

Also, an autopsy isn’t just “randomly cutting someone apart”. The point of an autopsy is to determine a person’s couse of death and doesn’t just involve cutting the dead person open. You being alive means that an autopppsy, by definition, cannot be performed on you.

What you want is someone to mutilate and kill you. I’m pretty sure you can find someone willing to do that.

Side note: I think you overestimate how long you will stay conscious when the blood starts flowing, painkillers don’t fix your brain running out of oxygen.

Do they? I’m pretty sure only about one in three humans works in food production. I think it is reasonable for them to expect the other two to give them something for their food in return.

It’s nice to have something to eat.

“Vamos a la playa” by Righeira is about a nuclear catastrophe, but if you don’t speak spanish, you are likely to assume it’s just a good vibes summer song about going to the beach.

I compared these numbers to the general population (Source: https://www.wahlrecht.de/umfragen/ )

Support for the far right AfD is about 5 percentage points lower than among the general population (12% vs 17%)

For the conservative CDU/CSU it is 10 pp lower (20% vs 30%)

For the Social Democrats it is 3 pp lower (12% vs 15%)

For the liberal FDP it is 4 pp higher (8% vs 4%)

For the Greens it is about 4 pp higher (18% vs 14%)

For the Wagenknecht alliance, a weird mix of far right and far left, it is about the same (5%)

Unfortunately this article doesn’t mention the socialist left, which for the general population sits at around 3%

So, to conclude (and from my own experience) youths in Germany don’t deviate that much from the general population in terms of their political views. They tend to be less conservative and xenophobic. Most of them are somewhere in the center, having slightly more liberal tendencies than the general population.

Most spiders.

Octopi are mostly solitary I think.

Neither, we just tend to look at the past with rose-colored glasses, forgetting how shitty things have always been.

I have certainly put a lot of time into things without achieving the outcome I initially hoped for. I don’t think any of that was pointless though. All these experiences made me who I am today, each girlfriend or job that didn’t end up working out made me learn something about myself, each failed project taught me something, if only to be patient and deal with frustration.

I try to think that life is all about the journey, and not always arriving where you set out to go is what really makes it interesting.

Here’s someone who’s been blind since birth talking about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpUW9pm9wxs

Lel, of course they dream. Whether they see stuff in their dreams likely depends on whether they they never had sight in the first place, or lost it at some point in their lives.

Sounds like something one of my great grandparents would have said 5 to 10 years before being sent to a concentration camp.

I feel like the term “Incel” has developed somewhat. I guess in the beginning it was used by men struggeling to get into a relationship to refer to themselves. It was used to find others with the same issues, and form a kind of self help group that could provide comfort and maybe even inprovement. If thats what incels were today, they wouldn’t be hated like that. Perhaps they would be belittled or made fun of.

But that’s not what we understand incels to be today. Incels now seem to be extremely bitter, delusional, pathetic individuals. They don’t recognize the issue lies with themselves, instead it’s supposedly the fault of the women, who won’t accept their place in society. In the mind of an incel, they deserve to have sex, and that means that it should be a woman’s duty to please them.

So no, you are probably not an incel, even if perhaps you would have been under the original definition.

Maybe find another student and gift something together.

If this surprises you, you never had to worry about how you are going to pay next month’s rent

For me, other factors are much more important than the salary.

A tedious job with unpleasant colleagues would never make me happy, no matter how high the salary. On the other hand, if I had a job that was fun and had nice colleagues, I would be happy with a salary that only covered the essentials.

Also, I would rather have a salary that only covers the essentials for 30 hours a week than a salary twice as high for 60 hours a week. What good is money if I can never spend it?

There are more factors that are more important to me than the salary. How much physical labor is involved in the job? Do I have to work at night? Do I work shifts or do I have flexible working hours? Does the employer offer a pension plan? Are there any other benefits? Where would I have to work, close to friends and family or far away? …

Yeah, there really isn’t just one threshold value that would make me happy. More is better of course, but there are too many other factors.

Though it’s probably worth mentioning that I don’t have any children and don’t plan on having any.

yes, its practically the same thing. Both contain surfactants, which is the stuff that allows you to rinse off oils and fats with water.

Smell is a pretty complex thing.

For vision, we only have four different kinds of receptors, which can be stimulated by electromagnetic waves on a one-dimensional spectrum.

For smells, we have about 350 different kinds of receptors. Also, they can’t easily be stimulated by electromagnetic waves, but only by molecules, which are much more difficult/costly to transport to their corresponding receptors.

Wasn’t that just a meme? Where can one find that list anyway?
