No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Can you also do this with languages that use the Latin Alphabet?English
8·26 days agoAll your examples are changing gramatically between noun and verb.
Germanic languages tend to use the second word in a compound as the noun and the first as a modifier.
Blue ocean is an ocean that is colored blue where ocean blue is a shade of blue.
Conversely snowshoe is a shoe meant for use on snow. Shoesnow is nonesense rather than snow stuck to your shoe.
A possible option working within existing systems would be:
Parental leave: you get pop sustain rate (2.1?) parental leaves banked. You use 1 leave for every child you have and bank is allowed negative with no penalty. At 45 or so you get to use your bank without being a parent.
Something like 95% of people become parents.
Flex time/time-bank + home/hybrid office fix most other issues in office jobs.
Trump couldn’t dodge a shoe
It’s called critical support numbnuts.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Okay... so how do depressed people even have relationships? Did they get depresion after they already got into the relationship or did they actually went dating while having depression?English
6·1 month agoThe normal way. Flirting, talking, dating.
As long as someone is addressing their depression (e.g. therapy or whatever) and not expecting a relationship to fix it then it is fine and healthy to join one.
Granted loneliness can definitely cause depression, so an exceptional case there.
In terms of dark room vs. extrovert, i can speak from experience that both can feel lonely and the depressive episodes still come and go. IMO better to have higher highs because you’re getting the lows either way 🤷.
Bill Clinton energy damn
Why doesn’t Cuba just build a canal through Panama?
I can’t spend more that $300 a year on medical bills. Not because that’s what I can afford, but because the rest is 100% covered by the government.
Like some of these could be quite impactful but there’s no reasoning given for why any are moreso than no kings.
Trying to create a viable third party for an electoral system is incongruent with the assumption that martial law is inevitable.
Compulsory “I’m not advocating violence” … You’re saying “do a Luigi”
Maybe say something about how mutual aid fills the gaps missed by the system and how if it grows then we can build systems with greater nuance and independence from the state thereby better protecting our communities against disasters and brutality from law enforcement.
“Read a book” types are the fucking worst.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What if medicine intentionally tastes bad?English

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•What if medicine intentionally tastes bad?English
1·1 month agoYou’re not wrong about some drugs but others taste bad simply because they don’t consider flavor and you’re supposed to just swallow them anyways.
Some Ibuprofen pills taste neutral to pleasant while others are awfully bitter. Ibuprofen itself has a clinical or sterile or saline IV flavor, not offensive.
Unflavored sugar pill can have a pretty awful taste on its own.

News@lemmy.world•State Department slashes fee to renounce US citizenship by 80% to $450English
1·1 month agoIf you plan to work short term in the US and are foreign born then just don’t get citizenship, just work on a visa.
If you are a US citizen and need to retain your passport or do business in the US you have to do US taxes based on the treaty between the US and your country of residence/work. Renouncing citizenship relieves you of this duty.
Foreign banks don’t report to the US at all. You are required to submit that independently through an FBAR.



You should go for the top shelf stuff, sheep piss plays better with the peat.
