Blue skies? A sacrifice this guy and his friends in tech are apparently willing to make -, for all of us
It kinda funny how the German is already heavily loaded and trying to make it a bad thing, but the English translation is reducing any amount of nuance the original text still had left in it, painting it as this devil institution brainwashing young people into becoming soulless borg commies.
for example, the original last sentence reads like this, faithfully translated: “Socialist morals and a positive attitude to life in a community were more important learning goals than the development of individual skills.”
Here’s the whole thing, trying to be as faithful and transliteral as I can be to the original:
Kindergarten served not only for childcare, it was also the first educational institution, anyone born in the GDR would visit. Obviously, because of this, state leadership had an interest in providing wide coverage: places at a Kindergarten were available for way more than 90 percent of children. The daily schedule was precisely planned and applicable to everyone: they would play together, eat together and have naps together - under instruction [you could read this as “guidance” too, but the tone of the original is very clearly already trying to make the supervision part of childcare into an evil commie thing, so yea]. Socialist morals and a positive attitude to life in a community were more important learning goals than the development of individual skills.
Merry Hexmas everyone!
where are you looking during the movement (don’t look up, or try to follow the bar with your eyes) you want a fixed point on a wall to stare at so your neck is straight during the press
also, there’s a certain movement of your upper back (it’s probably got a name but I forget), basically you need to move your chin/head out of the barpath and then sort of tuck under after the bar clears your face. You do this by moving in/out the whole upper body/back, not just the neck area or head
Idk these two could probably lead to neck pain if done incorrectly

and other times you just happen to be a raccoon with a surplus ghetto blaster
I liked it as well, go watch it
very illuminating post, thanks for all of it.
I’m trying to understand my weed consumption better, and how it might be related to my a(u?)dhd. I’ve heard many with adhd self-medicate with weed for the stimulation, is that right? Have you written about weed and audhd before or do you have any resources you think are worthwhile? It just doesn’t seem to have the same effect with me than with more allistic people, or at least it seems that way to me - and I’m curious about the connection there, if there is any; especially the differences in adhd+weed and audhd+weed.
If you have any experiences or third-hand knowledge to share there, I’d be greatly appreciative. If not, that’s fine too, I’ve learned a lot already from your posts; so thank you again.
