This is a question built for me; my turkish has been deteriorating for 25+ years and I am trying to raise a bilingual (spanish/english) child.

When you speak to your mother, you should speak her language (I assume cantonese?) don’t be afraid to mention words you lack in cantonese to her during the conversation so you can boost your vocabulary.

If you also have a child that’s learning one language more than the other (because the primary language at school etc), communicate to them in your language, but understand what their needs are in their language, and reinforce it in your language (eg : Her : “Quiero agua” Me :“you want water? Ok, let’s go get you water. Here’s the water. Drink the water”)

Tarantino is using his power as director to persuade women actors to show their feet

OK, what’s going on here? Isn’t being a director a part of art and expression, so expressing “here’s a pair of women’s feet, that shit turns me on” a part of art?

The actresses can see the script, they know it’s Quentin Tarantino, it’s like the cat looking in box meme. What did they expect, no taking video of your feet for the worlds biggest foot fetishist?

It’s abuse of power when he does that shit unexpectedly behind the scenes.

If you want to be mad at Tarantino for abusing an actor, try the car stunt with Uma Thurman

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uma_Thurman#Kill_Bill_car_crash

In the same 2018 New York Times interview, Thurman described how she had been in a serious car accident back in 2003 on the set of Kill Bill, because Tarantino had insisted she perform her own driving stunts.[182] Two weeks after the crash, she tried to see footage of the incident. Thurman stated that Miramax would only agree to show her the footage if she signed a contract “releasing them of any consequences of my future pain and suffering”, which she refused.[182] As a result of the crash, she sustained permanent injuries to her neck and knees.[182] Tarantino later called this incident “the biggest regret of his life”.[183] Thurman later clarified on Instagram that Tarantino had apologized to her for the incident and that she has since forgiven him,[184][185] being open to working with him again.[186]

.ml is the official one created by the lemmy guys, who are tankies, and that instance has a lot of tankie opinions and bad takes.

based middle of the road, analytical, truthful and realistic take.

yes sir. I’ll get on that right away

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transgender_rights_in_the_United_States

It is a facetious comment. The comment is intended to indicate the lack of motive Iranians would have in south america, and contrast the legal avenues that are available to Iranian trans people, which far from ideal, is probably more attuned to the existing system in Uruguay than the current US administrations attitude

I can let you all know that here in Uruguay, all the Iranian hezbollah is very busy trying to illegalise cannabis and abortion. (Oh wait, the Iranians have legal abortion, unlike texans)

The iranians are trying to help the trans people transition. Sometimes they suggest the cis gay people do it too, which makes it awkward.

EDIT : The irony is that the venezuelans down here are actually super right wing , working as barbers or pedidos ya (LATAM uber eats)

Just ask Ian to start your computer when he goes on it

telling on themselves more than defeating their enemy

EDIT: “This is bullshit” says Fahrouk al-Ahli. "Our organisation has done more against those zionist pigs in Israel and our home nation in the Arabian gulf than this “Miss Rachel” has done. All she did was make some posts with the Palestinians. We are the ones carrying out unjust punishments for the filthy jews in our country and supplying rockets for attacks on Israel day after day. She does not put in the sweat and hard labour it takes to take on the Jews. We are writing a strongly worded letter to the zionists at StopAntisemitism to strongly reconsider our organisation as the “antisemite of the year”.

EDIT3 : I am not an antisemite. I want to make fun of antisemites and these people who are crying wolf about antisemitism.

🤷 you’re entitled to your opinions, I’m entitled to my “this isn’t what I’m used to from that guy”

I see many posts and comments by them, that aren’t just rage, so I’m inclined to not make a rash judgement.

ah ok. the “choose a random number” method of infinity. I guess it would be more difficult to set up different types of ban, instead of just allowing the default for “permaban” to be “fuck it, if the MF ain’t dead by this time, they deserve to be back on this site”

@Deceptichum@quokk.au is usually on the level, so I’m curious why they triggered a 74 year ban

Who aré we expecting to counterattack the US? Because the Falklands blew up in the face of Argentina because the UK took them back

Aside from ALL the shit other people have said, 3d always gets used like shit anyway. The way to make it shine is to give depth to images, and everyone wants to use it to make shit “pop out of the screen at you”.

Otherwise it’s subtle. So why bother with the extra infrastructure for no additional effect?

People don’t seem to realise you will build up a tolerance.

Or you can just eat a 1 million scoville pepper from tesco’s because “why would they put the legit shit in fucking tescos lmao”.

I spent the next few hours wondering if I should go to the hospital because my digestive tract felt like it was being stung by bees.

After that, no spice can phase me.

Great work, but I just want to share the stupid comment of

“Looks like a cup of internet”

motherfucker what part of I said did do you not understand? Are YOU a windows update? There’s certain ones, and they changed and they eventually unblocked the fucking updates, or you know what, if it wasn’t that, the process was so fucking convoluted that I did the wrong ones.

Don’t fucking come in here and gaslight people. these fucking things happened. We tried.

I tried. Somehow it didn’t take. I spent years putting it on hibernate. On Linux now
