    For me, it's Poor Things. I watched it three times in a row, when it came out. First of all, it's a perfectly executed movie for me, the style, the acting, the storytelling, Emma Stone. What makes it special for me, is that it embodies everything I like about my sexuality and I hope that humanity is heading in that direction of norm-breaking freedom of leading your life. Yorgos Lanthimos has a way of transporting a fresh view on possible paths for society.

    Contigo AutoSeal Thermal Mugs. They never spilled their contents, which I could never say about other thermal mugs. They keep everything warm/cold for a good amount of time. I'm just super happy with it, and it still holds up after 8 years of frequent, almost daily use.

    Der Rechtschreibrat sagt was anderes, t oder d am Ende passt:

    https://www.heise.de/news/Rechtschreibrat-Geliked-geliket-oder-gelikt-9794769.html

    ... Korrekt sind demnach "geliked" oder "gelikt", nicht aber "geliket". Analog sind "gefaked" und "gefakt" zulässig, nicht aber "gefaket". Im Bürokratendeutsch lautet die Regel:

    "Bei Fremdwörtern aus dem Englischen werden Flexionsendungen in der Regel an die deutsche Laut-Buchstaben-Zuordnung angepasst. In einigen Fällen ist auch die der Herkunftssprache entsprechende Flexionsendung zulässig."

    I fully agree on the safety razor! I got so frustrated with the multiblade razors. Since I tried the safety razor, I never looked back. And as a woman, I don't have a beard or super thick hair, they work their charm just the same :)

    I would add, that you should consider how much of a good example you are yourself, if you as a parent are on the phone constantly, your kids will probably pick that up and do the same.

    I can understand your perspective, but I want to offer an alternative view, maybe less bound to societal preconceptions. I married my partner for many reasons, financial, wanting to raise a child together, wanting to share my life with them... But staying married for the rest of our lives is a crazy concept for us. The marriage has its purposes, but we both know that life can change and that we could decide that we had a good time, and that now the time has come to move on. A marriage is less romanticised for us, it has practical reasons. I guess being polyamorous helps with defining new relationship ideas on many levels ;)

  • What happened to "You're welcome!" as a response to "Thank You"? It's not even included in the canned answers on an apple watch. Have we as a society abandoned it?

    Well, in German we say "bitte" or "gern geschehen", which is close to the "welcome". Of course, people can and do also say "kein Problem". I guess in my experience it depends on how I feel about the task and the person I did it for.

    Your comment made me think of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQDdmobnGcw I don't know if it really fits your case, but the general message of men oftentimes not learning to keep up social relationships and that it sometimes huts them in the long run might be something to be aware of :)

  • I noticed that I tend to work on my projects in low light. I want to save my eyes and invest in a good light, and I remember that on reddit people recommended neck lights. Do you know any manufacturers that you would recommend?

    Ich merke, dass ich viel zu oft bei schwachem Licht arbeite, und hatte damals auf Reddit mitbekommen, dass viele auf Nackenlampen schwören. Habt ihr eine Empfehlung für einen guten Hersteller?

    I stumbled across this video and thought that you might like it :) It is about the CNC, from the viewpoint of the USA. (Sorry, my French is not that good anymore, I didn't dare to write this in French. But I love reading the posts in this community!)

    Wäre es nicht schön, an jeden "Bäcker", der eigentlich nur massenhaft produzierten Teig aufbäckt, ein "Auf" vorne dran zu hängen? Macht es einem leichter, meisterhaft hergestellte Brot zu finden 😁
