Its not really 'nothing ever happens' its 'there are no consequences to anything happening'. Yeah, the number went down, but has world order shifted at all yet?

"The Stock Market is down to levels never seen before... checks notes... 2023?"

I've been boiling this water for ten minutes and all that's happened are a couple of tiny bubbles that aren't even moving! Nothing ever happens!

[–] aanes_appreciator@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago

the frogs in my pot of water arent boiled yet :(

[–] sodium_nitride@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago

It's not even "no consequences to anything", but "the people dying and suffering are doing so outside my bubble"

Beisdes a nuke hitting Washington DC what happening would change the world order immediately enough to defeat that mantra?

Please NSFW + add a suicide CW

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Are you sure it's OK to abbreviate like that?

[–] Runcible@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

It kept the CW from meaning anything to me at least, so I think it shouldn't be abbreviated for what that's worth.

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah if I just read "sui" on its own my mind would probably just think 水. The Hexbear CoC explicitly says "Do not abbreviate your CWs. Not everyone knows what the abbreviation stands for."

Real question: What's the eufemistic for suicide? Extreme self harm?

[–] Runcible@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

That's a fair question, I guess I would've just used suicide but I get your point that that could be counterproductive as well

~~Yeah I'm afraid of pigs~~

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Are you trying to make a joke about pig calling?

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Sui is pig in latin IIRC,

I changed it, I'm not arguing about the request

Edit 1: Aw it's sus not sui, damn

Edit 2: in spanish "suino" means "pig"

[–] Erika3sis@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Sūs in the nominative singular, suī in the dative or ablative singular.

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

The fuck is the ablative case, when the word cuts and extracts something?

ablative case does not exist in spanish or english

Uh ok

[–] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So glad I stoped learning Latin once I reached “declensions”

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Don't they exist in every european language except english?

[–] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don’t recall learning them in Spanish (different than verb conjugations, right?) but you’re probably right. I checked out of Spanish grammar pretty early and just spoke based on what felt right

[–] RNAi@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ah wait that's when the nouns and adjetives change based on grammatical case. You are right we don't do that shit in spanish

[–] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 1 points 1 year ago

Oh sick I was wondering if i totally forgot something about the language

Something seems to have happened.
