    I love etymology honestly and how it is all connected. I am really curious about onomatopoeias.

    For example is ‘hmmm’ used in many unrelated languages just because it has a soothing vibration? Why do we have same onomatopoeias in cultures that never met?

    Is there a language that is closest to interpreting the brain signals if we consider onomatopoeias to be a part of the language?

    Perhaps some primitive pre language consisting of grunts without words. Then the evolution comes into play and animal communication.



  • Keep coping but you are incredibly small minority and any sane person just laughs at you so you hide in some niche web communities like hexbear and yet you are still defederated from en masse

    There’s a sign there ‚hidden’ to reevaluate your life. If there’s smell everywhere you go…

    Have you ever considered that maybe… you are wrong? That maybe your idols Marx and Lenin weren’t such visionary geniuses?

    Personally my country had enough of communism for a few lifetimes. Socialism maybe, socialdemocracy yes. Progressiveness big yes. But communism? Get the fuck out from here literally. And I am not kidding. We polish people have this habit to shoot soviets.

    There were those rich people who died when their submarine was squashed by pressure during their attempt to reach titanic and let’s say no one was sad here. And now op encourages supertruck owners to maybe end up in a similar situation as a somewhat dark joke.

    Another take would be a coupon for landlords only titanic dive. I mean I am one but like no one will read that far

    I know it’s mostly better but it’s not feasible yet where I live. 1) more expensive… I mean I already typed all the things once

    Wait tho why do I have a feeling like we are arguing even though we just repeat our own experiences? It’s all cool, some place electric cars are viable elsewhere they aren’t. I hope they will become feasible here where I live (middle eu)

    Eee 40k euros? That’s what I am talking about I buy cars for 20k-25k€ maximum after conversion to local currency

    You don’t even drive one so how can you have valuable opinion on this? I drive one and analyse which one is the most efficient purchase and you only deal in theoretical armchair expertise

    Here in middle eu they are twice as expensive. Maybe it got a little better to like 1.75 now? Still I would have to be crazy to spend more than necessary on a car and watch it’s value plummet and repair cost suck my entertainment money. But also no way to charge them without living countryside or arrive comfortably at the far destination without long stops.

    A car is a necessary tool to get from a to b. Whatever does its job the best at the moment. I despise car owners treating them as status symbols.

    If we killed hitler we would have more competent nazi and possibly still third reich over here but no Poland and I am selfish I wanna exist ya know

    Best person would be trump as it is recent enough to not suddenly cease to exist due to various butterfly effects, still pretty risky though. All of people that died by accidents between trump election and today would be from different, new set. You can calculate probability even based on average yearly accidents.

    God I shudder to think what if u killed Julius Caesar. We would be like unrecognisable due to all branching out possibilities over the years. Real quantum parallel worlds shit
