I am primarily attributing it to that, especially since it’s affecting large parts of europe and also just the fact that it’s been a general trend. I just suck at phrasing sometimes.

My main point was really just that 30° in central europe has not been weird in the last 100 years.

Calling it global warming isn’t stupid, the globe is warming. It doesn’t mean “everywhere is warming” but “the global average is warming”.

40 was stupidly high and rare and now it’s still stupidly high but less rare and people very much still complain about it, 30 wasn’t super rare my entire life and i still complain about anything over 25 lol.

Local weather doesn’t mean much anyway, hottest 2 weeks on earth and where I live has been mostly pretty chill with 2 days that were actually hot (and those still only went to like 31). Pretty much the way i remember summer commonly being a while ago.

And just to be clear i am in no way trying to pretend climate change isn’t real, it’s real and we’re all royally fucked, but 30° really isn’t anything new and also saying “it was 40 degrees for a week” on its own doesn’t really say more than “global warming can’t be real it was -10 last week”.

The nazis absolutely came first for the communists, as that was literally part of their rise to power, blaming the communists for the Reichtagsbrand and jailing members of the KPD and SPD so they couldn’t vote against the proposal to give the NSDAP full control.

Alternatively, the NSDAPs founding program 10 years earlier contained “revocation of the german citizenship of jews” as a main point, though they didn’t have the ability to do much at the time.

…because that’s how language works?

If someone shows me a person and asks if that person is a woman, it will depend on “whether i perceive them as a woman in that moment”

If we’re talking about gender as a social concept in society, a woman is “a person the majority perceives as a woman”

If we’re talking about one’s identity, a woman is simply “someone who perceives themselves as a woman”

If we’re talking about genetics, a woman is a person with 2 x chromosomes, if we’re talking about primary sex characteristics, a woman is a persob with a vagina (or do we wanna limit it to having had one from birth? Both yes and no answers might be relevant depending on the context), etc.

even if you take gender out of the picture entirely and pretend like someone who looks like a woman, sounds like a woman, behaves like a woman somehow isn’t a woman, you’d still need context to define it.

It’s also a question that I have never fucking asked myself in my life in a general sense, because it’s utterly irrelevant except in very specific contexts.

My insurance provider (in germany) asked for height and weight for disability insurance and my godaunt who was the salesman very heavily hinted to maybe fudge the height upwards and weight downwards a bit, and all I can think of is that they actually use bmi for risk calculations. Better not be muscular i guess.

You should be able to turn off the swipe inputs for the kb entirely, at least i could on mine (the accidental activation was annoying me too). You can probably find it searching for swipe in the settings.
