TBH, I don’t feel like the Covenant would be a big “flood lives matter” supporter

Yes because when men are involved, people definitely never overgeneralize.

Freud was a fan, and he basically invented therapy

And as I recall, I think we both kinda liked it
And I said, “Well, that’s the one thing we’ve got"

Well, I can’t argue with that, that’s my philosophy as well.

Also, I sing the songs that remind me of the good times, I sing the songs that remind me of the bad times.

Same reason Mastodon isn’t as popular as Twitter… a lot of people really don’t understand the concept of federation, or why it’s important in order to maintain a robust and healthy discussion. They’re fine with dictatorship as long as it aligns with their sensibilities.

Also, the concept of “one website, one app” is infinitely easier to comprehend than “many instances, many apps, still one protocol”.

Checkmate, atheists

I see. Thanks for the detailed explanation!

Just bought a mate gourd BTW. It’s kinda modernist (comes with a lid) but still has a bombilla, but since there’s no big mate culture in my country, I suppose that’s acceptable (there’s no risk of running into traditionalists here). Hopefully it still beats drinking mate from tea bags, which is what I’ve been doing so far.

In German, dogs are male by default (der Hund can be used as a generic term for both male and female dogs), but bitches are female (die Hündin). Cats are female by default (die Katze), but tomcats are male (der Kater).

We do not use Hündin as a slur for women, but Hund can be used as a slur for men.

What is it with the Austrians always stirring up shit?

Is the gender of yogurt under debate in Germany? I am only aware of Nutella and butter. Yogurt was always male.

A sippy cup lid would make you to get a lot of yerba on your mouth.

Right, that’s where the French press sieve comes in. It’s a permanent metal filter like this one, which is fine enough to deal with ground coffee, so mate should be no problem, as it’s usually much coarser. A lid with something like this underneath should be able to keep all the mate inside the cup, and also prevent clogging. Combine with an insulated mug that keeps the water hot for more than five minutes, and you shouldn’t have to constantly refill it either.

I understand that traditions are important, but are they important enough to scald or impale yourself over on the freaking bus?

Have lids not been invented in Uruguay yet?

Also, instead of a straw, wouldn’t it be possible to use a sippy cup lid (like those on coffee travel mugs), but with a built-in sieve (like those on a French press), or would that ruin the experience?

Yes, but probably not a good one (wheat contains gluten, which is a protein)
