When having smalltalk with normal human beans I'm often asked things I don't want to answer. This includes asking what I studied at university or how much rent I have to pay for my apartment. Now that I don't have social interactions I'm wondering how I should react next time. Is "I don't want to talk about this" too assburger?

It’s very surreal to look at pictures of girls I liked from high school and seeing how poorly they aged in just a short amount of time.
I mean, I’m an ugly bastard, but at least that has been consistent.

I saw the girl I almost lost my virginity to last week when I went to take my current gf to college, she's a 3 kids divorced mom and a teacher there, not a great coincindence, it's a small city. I was amazed how thick (in a good muscly way) and pretty she is now. Most girls do peak in their early teens but milfs that make it are at another level.
I'm scared of ending up in Brazil against my own will. I mean randomly waking up in Brazil, without any money or papers to get back home through the embassy.
Naturally, being a cold also dark Russia sufferer I would like to visit any foreign country, but not Brazil.
And India.
And that's it, any other place is cool.
Does anyone else feel this unexplainable disgust towards Brazil (and India)? Or any other country?

"The CDC does not have the authority to give me my freedom," one commenter offered. "You f***ing jackasses at CNN and the rest of you idiot liberal s**t heads need to learn ... the government doesn't give you freedom... God did."
"Little thing called the Bill of Rights says the CDC holds no authority over me," one user added. "You morons ought to take a glance at some of those amendments and articles from time to time to keep from looking so godawful stupid."
"Our freedoms — including assembly — do not come from the f***ing CDC, you ignorant buffoons," another user pointed out. "Go to hell, you wannabe Stalins."
"Since when is the CDC in charge of freedom?" another commenter asked.
"I can't fault the CDC for how CNN words its tweets, but it's alarming if a news organization believes an unelected government agency is in the business of 'giving ... freedoms,' limited or not," one commenter wrote.
"Last time we read the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, we found nothing to suggest or even hint that our freedoms are granted by the U.S. government or any agency thereof," another user noted. "The CDC and its sycophants in the media might want to do a little remedial reading."
"Giving limited freedoms. Oh F off we should have all our freedoms back," another user declared. "I can't believe so many people were OK with all of this."
One commenter responded with the following: ""1. The CDC doesn't have authority to give/take freedom. 2. My freedom is inherent in my existence. Vaccines have nothing to do with it. 3. There's no role for the CDC to define rules which private citizens must follow. Authoritarian creep keeps on creeping, with CNN leading."
"This is unconstitutional on its face. My freedom is not granted by a government organization," another user wrote
I always thought airbrush is an expensive thing but thanks to developements in industry yoi can get one for 10e. The only issue is compressor but i had one salvaged from a fridge.
It is really great tool, allows to make ok looking effects with reasonably low effort

Looking at the scale and first determining what sort of hand posture is crucial. Then I try to memorize the notes within the scale. After I play around with the scale to silly rhythms in my heda and sometimes ghastly music emerges. Other times silliness flops forward and very rarely does anything worth recording is found.
I around 10 years ago I used to dream about living in Japan. I made plans, informed myself, started to lean the language, etc.
Yes I know that's pretty cringe but that's not the point. The point is that I am farther away from that dream than ever before. It's not even my dream anymore but it still sucks thinking about it.
It was never possible and even going abroad on a vacation seems difficult in the future.
Not because of money or time but because I am such a loser in every sense.
Does Bernd still have any dreams or big plans for the future?

Watching the recently out serpentza video on the state of toilets he's encountered in China (go watch it in full if you're interested; YouTube: 5bUH36GS9Fk I've only attached the opening) I was for some reason reminded of that famous (if I can call it that) Žižek skit on the hermeneutics of toilets: how the differences between how toiletbowls are shaped in the three European nations of France, Germany, and England, are for some reason perfectly tied to the differences in their philosophical and cultural output too. (If you haven't heard that; I've attached an illustrated video narrated by one of the versions of that skit. He repeats it often.)
So, what can we learn about Chinese society simply from looking at their toilets, in a žižekian way?
Personal thoughts: one might say that China is privately a deeply personally traumatised society, where a pretty public façade hides behind itself a state of utter decay. Such scenes perhaps remind one of cases of deeply troubled families in US, who have faked on social media how they live a perfect life, but behind closed doors they have been abusing their children for years.
But perhaps another way to look at this is: China is no-bullshit; any act that must be done (such as shitting) will be done and no effort will be done in the process to make it more palatable. Shame at one's state doesn't exist; we all cope by projecting that everyone else is disgusting too. After all, isn't this how China has been running its international propaganda recently – purely through being utterly shameless about the situation at home while pointing finger and laughing at everyone else?
lors onions?
You know what the mark of a civilized city is?
The fact that even though it's been there for weeks, nobody has stolen that little bottle of alcohol the people who own this scooter have put there for whoever rents it and uses it.
I doubt there's another city with maybe one or two exceptions in the entire country and even continent where this is possible. I'm glad I live here.
Do you like the place where you live?
