@jessew There is a region in Lower Saxony called "Ostfriesland" which most Germans are only 'familiar' with because they are the butt of a lot of German jokes. In these jokes they usually get the (unfair) role of stupid, backwards yockels.
@AnarchoNinaWrites Absolutely. And I am saying that as someone who really loves and adores reading "Walden". I just wish people would, in general, adopt more of a habit of taking things from literature and trying to implement them in their lives rather than starting cults around creators and texts.
And funnily enough, the book about all this romanticized back to nature, living deliberately schtick ends with the protagonist moving back to society.
@AnarchoNinaWrites Comrade Anarcho! Why, for Marx' sake, have you not included your discussion of the useless, yet widely used, musical genres 'alternative/indie'? What are you hiding, comrade?
@AnarchoNinaWrites Ohio is my US 'blind spot'... I associate aboslutely nothing with it and even though I am quite adept in placing US states on their correct spot on the map....for some reason I always place Ohio above Montana next to Washington....like trying to mentally get it into Canadian Niemandsland....just away.
@AnarchoNinaWrites This is cat people land. It always WAS cat people land. We will no longer suffer filthy humans occupying what is rightfully the domain of our people.
@AnarchoNinaWrites Ah. One of the reasons I left the beige-instance. Fun people but politically the same obedience to figureheads instead of ANY actual ideal.
