Global population of white people:

100 years ago roughly 35% 50 years ago roughly 20% 25 years ago 15% Today just 8%

solution is simple: stop being so white/pale (and identifying as such on paper), get off the couch, go out into the winter sun, barefoot, enjoy cold thermogenesis, become photoelectrically and electromagnetically efficient;

I love the picture of him passed out next to the toilet. Most of us can relate.

36 sats \ 10 replies \ @DarthCoin 3h

Sincerely, only twice in my entire life I was like puking in a toilet after I was so drunk. And that was in my early young years.

I learned the lesson and never get so drunk. The art of drinking is to know your limits and know how to drink so you will not end up in ridiculous situations.

Now... I can drink a lot and nobody even will notice. Most of my drinking buddies are under the table way before they even notice a slight change in my tone...

Fun fact: how I get my wife - by drinking with his father, until he said (when he was under the table) "enough for me, you won"... you are a worthy son-in-law.

"enough for me, you won"... you are a worthy son-in-law.

Great story!

At my bachelor party one of my friends passed out head first at the bottom of the host's staircase. Everyone just walked over him. When the host's kids woke up the next morning, they wanted to know who the smelly man was blocking the staircase.

Back in those times, in that country, it was a mandatory custom to do that, asking the father for his girl hand. You had to prove a real PoW in drinking and still be sober. That shows a lot of strength and control. Is not easy as it may look...

Nowadays... not sure if is still in place.

btw... we never get married, with license and shit... was just a simple agreement. But remained a good friend of the father...

I would have never gotten married under those rules. My father in law was one of the best drinkers I have ever known. I am considered a complete amateur in that family.

Those rules were very clear back in my time... If you want to get married, you must do PoW.

Today, Darth is like...

If my daughter will come with a boyfriend into my house, first thing I will put him to the test... no doubt.

Mhh, I realized today that it would be really cool if xcancel had a lightning address, since I could then set it as the lightning address for @nitter, and any @nitter zaps would directly fund xcancel:

A friend recently looked up his pension and was told that the money in the account hasn't moved for many years. We are going to confiscate it.

I can't imagine when more people wake up to this, the money they think they have in the banks...

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @AG 3h

if you consider inflation, it has moved negatively. It would not be easy to retrieve the money from the funds it has been invested in, especially if managed by the government instead of a private agency. It will much depend on which country your friend has the pension locked in with.

Keep us posted

Weird. An account just for the pension? I’m not really getting it. In what country did that happen?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Natalia 4h

I don't want to share the exact country, but it happened!
