Yeah I mean I've just heard arguments about how Finland will actually benefit from all this, and while I don't hold a strong opinion one way or the other (we definitely should help people, but we can't help too many because the world is a bottomless well), I do hope that facts are acknowledged.

I was just listening to Graveyard from our good neighbour, and this song fits with our leaders so nicely it's almost like cosmic guidance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rAjY97014V4 quote:There are three things Booze is Soini. Being the leader of the ostarijuoppo party, there's no better match. Money is obviously Stubb. Could also be Sipilä, but... Sipilä is "women" symbolically, because his sexual frustrations due to living in a weird puritan cult lead him to insanity.

Puistokemisti posted:Buying, preparing, miscalculating the timer and staying up until 3am watching the temperature slowly climb has basically become a Christmas tradition at this point for my father and I wouldn't dare to rob him of that joy. There are these modern temperature meters which alert you once the meat reaches a set temperature. Just DO NOT follow the instructions on any packages, because then you will have ham dryer than the sahara desert. For regular pork roasts, I typically turn off power when it reaches 70 degrees, and once it reaches 73, I take it out and it's always wonderful and juicy. And never have the oven on higher temperature than 125. Can't remember how I do christmas butthams, but it's probably something like that except everything just takes longer. E: I also buy ham after christmas because it's cheaper than potatoes at that point. Parents will buy the actual christmas ham anyway so no need to bother.

Personally I wouldn't let lit candles anywhere near my hair but I'm a tradition loathing hatemongrel. Or do they use electric lamps these days? I remember 10 years ago I always looked in terror as multiple girls subjected themselves to terrible risk. Kinda amazing how that was ok when throwing snowballs was forbidden and our experiments with bunsen burners would've been completely out of the question had we gotten caught. Still I say that the latter two were far safer than sticking a dozen or so candles to a crown and putting that crown onto your head.

Considering that these are the same people who claim that cannabis drives people to psychosis, I wouldn't put much weight on this. To me it seems absurd that people wouldn't be as willing to off themselves if they just didn't have a gun around. That Finns commit suicides often might just be because we've a more hosed up culture than the other countries mentioned. We do it with guns often because we simply have an absurd number of weapons around. Furthermore, if a person is not allowed to decide when to end his life, what kind of freedom is this? This seems like one of those perverse cases where life has a value so high that the quality of life doesn't matter at all. I don't think we would gain pretty much anything by making the laws stricter. E: How's about making mental healthcare available to more people? Right now you gotta be a total trainwreck to get any sorts of help without having to pay through the nose. SnowblindFatal fucked around with this message at 14:57 on Dec 31, 2015 |

So as a punishment I always had to carry the light machinegun for the team... which was exactly what I wanted. Hahahaha holy poo poo, sounds loving awesome. I wasn't so much in the dank culture back in the day but if I were, I'd have the best cookies for the forest trips.

Darkest Auer posted:Just like people in the Middle East have stopped stoning/beheading people to death oh wait The problem here is that if we start criticising the aspects of some culture in general, it would also put our own culture under scrutiny, and that's something undesirable to most people, including our leaders. That we still allow institutionalised insanity instead of giving the people mental treatment is kind of boggling until you start thinking of the practical problems that might rise if we actually tried to raise a generation of philosophers and teach people to be critical of anything they encounter in life. Finland could very well cease to exist if that somehow happened. Patriotism and other such unifying concepts might be gone.

It's a bit like how people think that what the human race is doing is somehow "bad" for the planet, when we are just as much part of Earth's nature as any other species. There are similar thought patterns in immigration discussion too, imo.

OhYeah posted:Everyone is equal, before God or the Universe or whatever you want to believe in. I can absolutely agree with that. It's very hard to apply that broad notion to everyday socio-political interactions between disparate cultures. I didn't actually mean my comment as support for cultural relativism which I find is bullshit the moment a culture has an avoidable negative impact on anything. I wanted to make a comparison with people who think that there is something inherently wrong with exploiting natural resources and to people who think that there is something inherently wrong with restricting immigration. Both can be seen as tools with their up and downsides. Even if deep down I am a hardcore "nothing really matters" hippie, I don't let that get in the way of the happiness of myself and my fellow people. I guess the big question in practical politics is as to who to consider "fellow people", but quite frankly I'm happy I don't have to make the call.
