“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.
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.
I usually just get PigPoopBalls and a bunch of insults.
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.
If this surprises you, you never had to worry about how you are going to pay next month’s rent
I really enjoyed Watch_Dogs, despite the shit it got at the time.
All wares whose demand increases disproportionally with an increasing income.
Bread for example is not a luxury. If you were to earn twice as much, you wouldn’t buy much more bread than you already do. The same isn’t true for jewelry for example.
There are apps that can automatically track in- and outgoing payments for your account, as well as classify them to give you an overview. I use Finanzguru, though I suspect that’s only available in Germany.
If you’re struggling with money, here’s my approach: If it isn’t absolutely necessary to have, sleep on it at least once before buying it, no matter how cheap it is. Works quite well, its weird how much your perspective can often change within a day.
Not exactly like the ones you oncluded, but I really like this one: Challenger - Lemmino

Depends if other people could tell, or if it was just my genitals that changed.
I do, because this way I can sometimes find hidden gems that wouldn’t be shown otherwise
I’m all for rehabilitation. But according to the University of Adelaide, almost half of prisoners released in 2018-19 returned to prison within two years. Not much rehabilitation going on there. Also, if we’re talking about rehabilitation, fixed lengths for prison sentences make no sense. A prisoner should then be released into society when they have been rehabilitated, not after a fixed amount of years.
I think most humans have a certain desire to gossip, probably a side effect of us being social animals. I can imagine that gossiping can be somewhat beneficial if you live in a tribe or small town.
With our way of life shifting to large cities in which you hardly know your neighbour, and digitalization making sure we regularly see these celebrities, I can see how that might trick our brains into caring about their everyday lives.
