I think they’ve been inspired by puffins, who’s males grow and shed their colourful beaks, kinda like reindeer do with antlers.

Oh man, parenting sure used to be different.
Sam heard about his grandfather’s abandoned farm near Delhi, New York, and learned wilderness survival skills by reading a book at the New York City Public Library. Sam’s father permitted him to go to Delhi, and, while he didn’t think that Sam would survive, said that if he made it, to tell someone in town
Tbf Sam is like one of nine children apparently. So the dad being like “oh you’re gonna go to live in the wilderness? Huh, alright, if you survive please don’t tell me about it but maybe report to someone” is quite understandable.
Also in regards to lenses and pretty things, because pottery and paper were already so massive industries in China, they didn’t see use for glass as much as Europe which needed it for windows and whatnot.
So then Europe had the advantage in glassworking and thus got some scientific instruments (such as beakers and lenses) first.
How much of that was of because wine, I couldn’t say. But I would like to mention that a gene for naturally being (much more) intolerant to alcohol is more common in Asia than in Europe. But how long it’s been more common is a question I couldn’t answer, as it might be more of a consequence than a cause, with how fast evolution works. (ie Europe has had strong liquor for centuries and you can see from places which only recently got liquor how much more prevalent alcoholism is — it gets filtered out pretty fast as if you’re dependant on alcohol and sauced all the time you prolly might not procreate, unless you’re not that intolerant to it and manage to function.)
Your defeatist whining? Yes, I am.
The only one who doesn’t realise how ridiculous you are is you. Otherwise you wouldn’t be acting like a petulant child at a store having a tantrum when mommy won’t buy them the most expensive candy because they’re a little fatty boom boom.
So are you spreading Russian propaganda on purpose or are you just too stupid to realise it?
Again, I gave you exactly what you asked, and you just start right whatabouting about the right.
So are you purposefully spreading Russian propaganda, or are you just too stupid to realise you are doing in accidentally?
Why would I be pissed? I’m not the one who’s taking a massive L because they cant speak English or make complete sentences even in their own orc language.
You asked for what the left has done.
I named hundred of things. You start tearing up, stomping your foot, “wyyyaaah not like that, Sergei told me this would be easy” then you start panicking and asking for specifics. Which I then give, on a dozen different things. You start crying even more.
Tell me how sore are you when you lose board games? I imagine you flip the board and start crying and yelling about you’re actually the winner. :DD
No it isn’t. Prove it.
"Nuh-uh, like, totally, like, isn’t! Like, I don’t, like, believe like you saying that, like, I’m like, acting childishly."

You’re spreading Russian propaganda. Are you doing it on purpose or are you just too dumb to realise it?
“What goalposts have I moved, huh???”
proceeds to rip out the posts and lug one next to the other.
“huh?! Huh?!”
This is the every first time you’ve mention “ten things” at all. You know, the only reason you’re still here is because you’ve no idea how badly you’re humiliating yourself.
As I’ve said from the start; YOU ARE SPREADING RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA, EITHER WILLFULLY OR WHILE BEING IGNORANT OF IT.
EITHER way, the result stays the same.
Älä itke, ruma lapsi, ota rusina.
Are you having a stroke?
Do I need to call a doctor for you?
“Name one thing the left has done.”
I name a dozen and more.
“Noooooo, not like that. Name, one, say, from the last 10 years”
“GDPR”
“Wwwwwyyyyyaaaaaaahhh NOOOOO NOOO NOOO you’re not supposed to actually answer me bbbyyyyaaaaah!”
Also, just for furthering your English, you don’t ask which goalposts was moved, because goalposts are a plural, just like pants. Imagine if you asked someone "which pant will Cyka be using today?"
Wouldn’t really make sense, would it? Just you know, for your next interaction where you pretend to be natively English.


Well it’s among the more minor issues currently when looking at the big picture, sure.
But you know, save the dicks as well, when you’re saving the dicks.

Feel free to report “stolen valor” to the FDF. The SA there stands for “Suomen Armeija”. Not showing you the side with my personal id number lol.
Oh, little babby can’t keep up because he’s too tiwed to read two whole paragraphs of text and make a reasonable argument? Ooh, go to mom, she’ll tuck you in, maybe tomowwow you’ll feew bettew. :)
You’re moving the goalposts. Ie asking for a thing and when it’s provided screaming “no no no I didn’t want you to actually answer, it was supposed to be my gotcha! Wyyyaah!”
You’re spreading apathy about the left on purpose.
I wonder, who does that on purpose?
Oh wait, no, I know who does, and like I’ve been saying for like a dozen comments, you’re either brainwashed by shitty Russian propaganda or you’re actually a Russian spreading it willfully.
Your post history is full of fking Joe Rogan my dude, the thickest roidhead there ever is who decided to pretend he has the ability to think. Which he does not. That’s why he’s always asking impossibly stupid shit, and that’s the only thing that gives him any entertainment value; him being an utter nut job.
Just like Trump.
You asked about the left in general… I name plenty of things they’ve done. You keep crying “nuh-uh, no they haven’t” “wyyyaaah gdpr isn’t even important or even from the past 10 years byyyyaaaa”.
You’re just wrong,
And you can’t accept that. You should just take the L and stop replying, but you won’t. I’ve seen this a million times. You’ll find me having said those very lines on Lemmy a hundred times and I’ve been right every single time.
Now dance little Katya, dance!
Prove me wrong, you’re just whining and moving your goalposts.
You don’t do jack shit. I’ve been in several political parties and am a sergeant in the reserves, because I know Russia is a dimwitted developing nation with a brainwashed populace, so I need to know how to use the weapons we use and the ones they use.
Ask me how many times I’ve taken apart and put together the most popular Russian LMG’s.
Everything you’ve asked I’ve given, but you whine about “nyyyaaah nooo you weren’t supposed to actually name a policy the left pushed through even though I specifically asked for one byyyaaah wyyyaaah”
This is why you always lose your wars, cyka.
We have it in Finnish as well “leipätyö”, literally ~“bread work/job”.
We are defined not by our employment status.
Wooow sooo deep man. I could have never guessed or referenced anything that would have even remotely suggested that to be the case, I’m just utterly shocked for this new information. However can I thank you enough for opening my eyes? Thank god you made me aware with this shitty comic that doesn’t remotely manage to actually make that point, only thinks it does because of it’s naive sophistry that entirely relies on a semantics point that it can’t actually cover.
Yeah, it’s annyoing when people ask you “what do you do” but it’s also annyoing when people use “literally” as emphasis rather than it’s literal meaning. But we can still tell the two apart, and I’m certainly not autistic enough to actually stop a conversation to deadpan someone and say “uh, I think you mean ‘figuratively’”. Sometimes jokingly with a close friend, sure, but like, in public discourse? Nah. Because it’d also be wrong, because linguists agree colloquial language is descriptive instead of prescriptive.
So yeah, attempt to semantically shift the word all you want, I’ll be happy if you succeed, but I really don’t believe anyone will manage it in my lifetime.
Edit also all the things she liste are pretty much things you could do as a job. Even the playing with a puppy bit, as a dog sitter. So even she is employing the word with the context of a job related to it. She doesn’t talk about enjoying time with her puppy, she specifically mentions an activity with it. She doesn’t talk about just relaxing or thinking about pleasant things or enjoying sewing. No no, she specifically mentions labouring to produce clothing and gardening to produce produce (or flowers but a product nonetheless).
Hobbies are things you do? Working at a restaurant is also what she does.
One would think a writer would understand that.
Yes, yes, capitalism is evil and loss of meaning is real, but the “gotcha” in this comic is semantics.


What is with this Russian propaganda of them starting wars all over Europe and China despite them not having enough supplies to even support their “special military operation” in Ukraine?
Russian army is a fucking joke.
Regards a Finnish person ready to defend the borders of Europe from some low iq orcs with stones and spears (even though the xp gain for slaughtering them is negligible)


They essentially flip a coin and then go with one.


Maybe stop actively supporting the permanent disfiguring of newborns and we might show even your mutilated dick some respect?
And yes, all circumcised men are disfigured.


Oh you don’t seem to understand what an ad hominen is either.
Saying “you’re a moron, so you defending mutilation of children’s genital is wrong” would be an ad hominen. Saying “mutilation of child genitals is wrong, you insipid little cretin” isn’t an ad hominen as the argument doesn’t rely on the insult being true. The insult is just an insult. Not all insults are ad hominem. Which you’d know if you’d actually read up on it even once, but you just go with what other people think.
So youre defending cutting off the prepuce of male children, because you’ve bought drank the coolaid and pretend like theres actual science supporting that mutilation. I’ve genuinely looked through the studies. There’s no objective evidence of a circumcision helping anyone unless done at puberty to kids suffering from phimosis. And only a small cut is done, the prepuce isn’t removed.
Try to argue that removing the clitoral hood is a good thing. Try saying that. It’s biologically homologous, although I’m sure you don’t know what that means.
“It’s Nazism to say that my parents shouldn’t have allowed my genitals to be operated on without my consent”
You didn’t successfully bait me though. I’m just having to wait for home deliver before getting out of bed because I’m not gonna get up without coffee, so I’m just killing a bit of time by laughing at people defending the mutilation of child genitals
Yeah. GDPR is from 2016.
What year was it, less than a week ago?
What’s 2025 - 10?
I know your schools suck, but surely even you’re not incapable of doing basic arithmetic?
So, are you spreading Russian propaganda purposefully, or are you just too dumb to realise it?
