"Моя змея дома"
Well I see Russian lesson writers are trying to compete with #HandysentencesInSwedish now
"Это наши львы"
OK sorry Swedes, but on this one
Russian: 1, Swedish: 0
I mean you have *one* bear (probably busy eating a sandwich while your dogs drink coffee, your boys eat salt, your girls eat pepper and the elephant has the tomato), but they have *several* lions
No contest
(Learning on Duolingo: It's fun)
"Эта змея в такси"
This snake is in a taxi people
Forget #HandySentencesInSwedish
Russians rule this game
Oh my god there's a pet fly now
(Note it must not be that hard to feed, even with no money)
"Моя муха", or how Russia's wealth fleeing abroad to the 'Evil West' tax havens made Russians creative when it comes to pets
"В парке - медведь"
Now guess that can be accurate
A bear in the park -more likely than a snake in a taxi, if you ask me
"Dina hästar dricker öl"
OK Swedes you're back in the game
(Was it worth getting your horses to drink beer tho)
So it’s not going great -Cases over 100k a day and we’re getting a new color
(Yes ofc my kids are spending the week in antimask family in a black area -the 3rd worse impacted nationally)
Ok measures have been announced.
Masks (but actually worn), work from home, no eating in public spaces unless sitting in an eating place (=masks worn) and no more than 2,000 people gathered inside (sitting, not standing up).
Oh and be cautious.
Well that should show Omicron.
Note that it is recommended to party with less than 2,000 people inside.
A story about football
(How I discovered it even existed -It’s fair to say none of my parents are fans)
My brother and I were in Italy, in a camping, with our dad, wife #2 and step-sis #1
I was 10
That night Italy was playing
In a World Cup
In Italy
People were *hysterical*
Funny thing, in Italian campings (the one we camped in to the least), everyone had a TV. Everyone. Playing the “sound battle” with their neighbours.
Tho that night there was no battle.
Everyone was looking at Italy playing
Everyone.
It was playing semi-finals against Argentina.
We didn’t have a TV. (We were visiting Italy to “culture up” as our lame, ambitiousless mother was raising us as pitiful peasants.) We were there to learn about monuments, museums, the Romans’ history.
That night, we were reading the Michelin guide about tomorrow’s visits.
What harm would it do to acknowledge intersex people do exist?
There ain’t that many and it’s not contagious
It won’t turn the whole society around, just their whole lives
(Don’t throw “biology” at me that would only show you still have a few things to learn about biology -which is fine BTW. Learning things is fine)
Please don’t take that as an agression.
This debate has been so polluted with agression and actively promoted fear-mongering and disinformation.
When it is a an occasion to learn new things.
