I went to the gym this afternoon. On the way home I pass a bus stop and a girl was sitting there. There was also a man standing right around the corner of the bus stop.
He immediately made me feel weird. He also had his bicycle standing next to hem. I thought that was odd because why would you have your bicycle with you at the bus stop. It’s not that common.
Anyway I didn’t trust it so after walking on for 20 meters or so I turned around to look. He was standing there FUCKING JACKING OFF. Like what the actual fuck man. This wasn’t some bus stop in the middle of nowhere either. It’s a fairly busy road.
I ran towards him and pushed him to the ground yelling: ‘what the fuck are you doing you weirdo’. He got up, ran to his bike and took off. Don’t know if the girl even noticed what happened as she was wearing headphones staring into her phone, and he was sneaked up behind the corner.
If I were a women I swear to God I wouldn’t leave the house without a weapon.
gotta love the civilized europe
European “civilization”
Do Western European buses not have bike racks on the front of them? It’s fairly common in Eastern Europe and the US for buses to have a place to store bikes.
YEESH
Someone jacking off in public would freak me out.
Yeah, yeah, I scare easily.
No,I think even the beefiest roided out guy would at least pause a bit after seeing that fuckery happen
LMAO thank you
There’s this system in Belgium when you are sick. If you are sick for one day, that’s fine. If you are sick for two days or longer, you have to get a doctor’s note for it.
I’m on day two of being sick now and instead of, you know, resting, I have to either take my bike or public transport into the city to go see my doctor so he can physically write me a note. Sure, it might only take a minute of his time but at this time of the year, with everyone getting sick, doing that one minute 20 or 30 times a day gives you less time to help actual patients.
The supposed logic behind this is that your employer can’t disregard the note of a medical advisor but I feel like we are evolving backwards that way. There’s no need for people like me with a common cold to see a doctor after being sick for two or three days.
Had to do the same back in school here in Germany, only difference being that the doctors note was needed on day one. Stupidest shit ever.
It’s a dumb system. I’m originally from The Netherlands and never had to deal with anything like this. When I still went to school my mom would call and tell them I was sick and they were like ‘Okay get better soon’. When I worked in NL I’d call myself and tell them I was sick. If I was sick for a longer period of time I’d either go to the doctor myself because something was probably wrong or they’d send a doctor for the company to check on me.
Do people abuse that system of trust in The Netherlands? No. There’s no need to be overly controlling.
Wait you get days off work for the cold?
Well I don’t get them, I call in sick. And I most of the time do it for a cold too. First of all because I think we should normalise not working when feeling unwell, second because I don’t want to infect others either. I see hundreds of people through work on a weekly basis so me feeling sick can turn into hundreds of people feeling sick and I think that’s pretty selfish.
If my place of work has an issue with that, that’s up to them. My health and that of others is more important to me. We people work enough already and we should take back some selfrespect.
I had been taking a break from this website for a few months, and these are the news that I come back to… I lack the words.
Rest in power, Yahya Sinwar. Brave and defiant until the end. The resistance will continue, the zionist entity will be destroyed.
We need more upbeat news, tbh, and more side content too. More stuff to look forward to.
I shall help with that, ig; at least, whenever I can.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
My classmate makes 1,5 times as much as me even though his job is just waiting around and mine is hard physical labour. It shows that the amount of money you make isn’t equal to how hard you work. No hard feelings towards my classmate though. I like him
Do you work in a warehouse?
I may have to, at this point, at least for the time being.
That pic slaps
From what I can tell this was the photo the DPRK sent to the AP to release with there final warning message. Now I want to meet whoever the photographer was for that shot
As always, death to America, death to Israel, and death to NATO
yeh
I was helping my cousin with choosing and enrolling in classes for university (she’s going to the same one as me) and she told me I’d be a great professor 😭
just had a fight with europeans about using the word eurasia because we asians don’t wanna be associated with génocidaires. they use the term when it’s convenient and wanna be inclusive and then assault asian minorities in europe, and then it’s asiatic hordes.
That’s weird,the people who popularized the term were the Russians,and originally it means something like Russkiy Mir, the Russian sphere of influence rather than some concept of unity between Western Europe and Asia
So it’s odd Europeans would use it
I hope you all have a nice week :D
And a glorious week to you too!
It’s Roo! :D
Have a nice week, Oppo! May all of your trains arrive and on time. 🙏
HEY thats my job to control the trains, dont step on my turf
You’re the one messing with Oppo’s commute!? Well that settles it. We must seize your means of production and smash your bourgeois train machine!
Look its just a power I was born with, I have Dictitoral control over all trains in Europe, note not the EU but Europe the continent
It’s not loading for me 😭
I will look into it later
The first did
You too! :D
No, you!! :3
FIRST REPLY… and um … err you too I guess, I did not think this through
that is the only way to eat with your paws all the way in
That Kamala interview on Fox was pretty bad. Nothing but dodging questions or outright lying the whole time. But of course the biggest questions, the ones about the weapons killing children in Palestine or the warlike rhetoric, remained unasked.
We cannot risk her possibly growing morals NOW
I lightly browsed two socialist accounts on Twitter. The amount of chauvinist brainworms in the replies was astounding, I don’t understand how some of you people continue use that giant cognitohazard
Use Blue Sky or Mastodon; divest from Twitter / X.
Good on India, tbh
Why is reddit so toxic
I got sick again. It’s not my year when it comes to being sick. Probably because I have close encounters with over 600 people a week so…
I still feel guilty for calling in sick for some reason. But I cannot 1) work while sick and 2) work while sick AND infect possibly hundreds of people.
But we live in a society and we get this pressure to still work even when you’re dying, so yeah I get where my anxiety comes from.
I will not permit you to say Kim without the title Sheikh
then why did you do just that?
I’m a 🦛
You are a Moo Deng?
