Yes, but with “fixing” the structure, you have robbed it of colloquialism. Maybe it’s just me projecting.

I lived among non-native speakers for the longest time, and shaped my English using my knowledge of other languages to bridge some gaps in communication. Now I’m back to a native environment and catch myself slipping up with my invented phrases.

The thing is, I can’t find another combination of words to convey the exact sentiment so succintly, even though I’m not sure it’s gramatically correct.

Soros.

I think your numbers are a bit off for the gray pride march. I don’t know the numbers, but MKKP even on their better days, don’t pull multiple 10s of thousands, and that Fidesz ralley looked like an impromptu meeting of a couple of hundred.

This one though. I am sorry I couldn’t join, but it was a sight to see the bridge and Rákóczi út fill up like that. 100k+ numbers here.

Closest I got is ‘bojler eladó’, but it is nowhere near as heartening as what Ukraine’s got.

You can assume whatever you like.

Wait, furry is not kink?

Man, English is so wacky. After reading that post twice the structure fell apart in my mind, and I’m a native speaker. Hats off to anyone who picked up the language along the way.

Is it weird that this is kinda how I imagined him in the book?

I’ve heard some actual numbers thrown about that are in the triple digits. Like if you cap the top 230 most wealthy people at a billion (or 10) US, we could build a shitton of lead free aquaducts or whatever your favorite ‘metric of the commons’ is.

A Game About Digging a Hole looks to be a fun game to play while your legs fall asleep on the toilet. Only 20% off, but it’s a sub $5 game.

It is just a reinforcement for us. He has probably never had more than the ever-elusive ‘fleeting high’. He’s in a skinner box, where he has already maxed out the ill effects of one of our more powerful tools (money). He has to go to ever further extents to quiet the demons that most of us had to cope with since adolescence.

To drive the point home, he’ll never be able to make any new authentic connections in his life (if he ever could in the past). While it is a bit copium, and I am as frothy in the mouth about his antics as any well-meaning individual, I do find it one of the constant, if smallest, wins.

This’ll just ensure a republican win, will it not?

Yeah, but what happens if not? Do we get the VEEP as the leader of the ‘free world’?

The others can probably give you something more on the nose, but from the ‘light-hearted class warfare’ genre, Ryan Reynold’s Waiting, and the ever-classic Office Space are what come to mind.

I rented that multiple times when it came out!

I think I might never use that phrase again!

I came in thinking someone would link some alternative porn to a lost soul, and it never even crossed my mind that they might be looking for work.

It felt attentive, and I just wanted to convene (so very poorly) that your company must be a pleasure.

That’s wild, thanks!

You can see who downvotes you on lemmy?

Mexico building the wall soon

So Trump is keeping promises?

Are malicious audio files a thing? Is it pervasive on soulseek? Would it be OS agnostic? I was under the impression, that the only way to get malware is disregarding security popups when installing shady stuff from cnet.

I don’t know how to code, but have been my own admin for quite some time. Having malware in containers besides .exe files gives me the heebie-jeebies.
