Schnittke’s Choir Concerto.
Sounds nice enough, but not really like an outsider position among the Founding Fathers. OP seemed to be saying that Paine differed substantially from the others in some way, which I would be interested to learn about (not American either, I only have cursory knowledge of the Founding Fathers).
Original art (paintings and sculptures) by local artists. They csn be checked out for three months at a time. It’s really nice to have some original art in your home even if it it’s not by a big name.
Also, I can easily access most of my country’s important newspapers’ online articles that are normally behind a paywall.
Ah, a fellow Krabbé connoisseur!
Haha, I see. Good on you!
Tbh I think I can understand why people do it. For some using various substances are a quick and simple way to relax/numb unwanted emotions/etc… Some start because of peer pressure. For others it’s just learned behaviour (you’re more likely to become a smoker if your parents are).
Personally, I’ve never as much as tried cigarettes because it just never appealed to me and I had mostly non-smoking friends and family. But I definitely have other bad habits I shouldn’t have gotten into and have trouble getting rid of, so I get the feeling.
Wait, even as a child? Where are you from if I may ask?
Never have I ever as much as tried anything you can smoke (cigarettes, joints, shisha…).
Only interesting if you’re romantically attracted to women, though.
I mean it makes some sense as memes take less effort to post (they can also just be copied from r/anarchychess or similar places) and lead to some quick upvotes. I’m still confused about chess@lemmy.ml having so little activity though.
Old School Runescape.
Also, I’m really confused as to why chess doesn’t have an active community on Lemmy. Online chess has seen a big boom in recent years, and the demographics of chess players and Lemmy users should have a lot of overlap (i.e. the nerdy IT people), but for some reason the chess community here is more or less dead. Only anarchychess is active, which is great, but I’d love to have an active replacement for r/chess.
Wait wait, are you telling me the US (the Americas?) don’t have hedgehogs??
Many of them are neo-nazis and/or right-wing extremists. A comparison with the GOP is difficult but I’d say they’re similar in their hatred of non-white people and their disdain for liberal democracy.
