this is mostly for the German speaking crowd but I had to translate a railway safety assessment report today (yes, exactly as boring as it sounds), came across some familiar vocabulary and started thinking about StEx's German translation Like imagine if Bochum had actually translated "Rolling Stock" instead of leaving it. "Schien'fahrzeug!!!!! Schiiienenfahrzeug!!" would have been a banger opening tbh
I think they should do that actually. On principle.

My workplace is on the first floor (2nd floor for Americans) and we have an intercom to buzz people in, and about twice a day we get mail. So I go to the intercom, say: "[Company name]!" and the guy downstairs just yells "Amazon!!" because he's here so often that there's no need for elaboration anymore. I love it. It's like if I was at home and the doorbell rung and I said "hello?" and the only reply I get is "PAKIDGE!!"

Anyone else think the “phantom cat shaver” might be an inside cat vigilante trying to send a message? This is already making some Brits say they’ll keep their cats indoors.

the problem with reading and writing leading to a strong vocabulary is that you tend to know the vibe of words instead of their meanings.
if I used this word in a sentence, would it make sense? absolutely. if you asked me what it meant, could I tell you? absolutely not.

I suspect that it may be a common Asexual experience but when I imagine something as "sexy", I imagine something that makes your heart beat fast, that gives you goosebumps, that captures all your focus and puts a hitch in your breath and an odd tingle on the back of your neck, that is exciting and enjoyable to think about.
By extension, things that I believe are "sexy" include:
Office supply outlets
Hardware stores
Antique sewing machines in working order
Really good gel pens
People in eyeliner
Baroque art
Textile warehouses
Administrative filing systems

I fully admit that I grin at "connect with the universe and also heal your kidney stones 40 hz alpha waves meditation music" but I am just as unashamed to admit that those "binaural beats focus study music enhance intelligence 3000" things fucking work. A second ago I had three songs running simultaneously in my head at full volume along with a looping quote from my second favourite movie and now its just binaural beats 3000 and I can focus on my thesis again. Peace and love
