    Yeah and sometimes it just rubs off on each other, like I was never the gardening guy but her enthusiasm about it was infectious and now I find myself getting excited about how many tomatoes a single plant can grow or what beautiful colors the tiny corn poppies can produce.

    And the other way around - a friend gave me a 'Quark' shirt for my birthday and my girlfriend said 'ugh ferengies are so ugly, couldn't he have given you a Spock shirt, I like him more' and I was soooo proud of her.

    You just learn to enjoy their excitement about their boring shit until you start to share the excitement and you start to enjoy the thing too.

    Ich habe mich immer gefragt was Leute online gegen Religionsunterricht haben, weil ich nämlich genau so einen Unterricht hatte wie du ihn hier beschreibst.

    War zwar immer noch etwas auf der christlichen Seite die gute Frau, hat aber meiner Meinung nach einen guten Abriss zumindest der Weltreligionen gegeben und auch die interessanten Parallelen zwischen diesen gut aufgezeigt und behandelt.

    Aber Religionsunterricht in der Schule nur als Verlängerung des Konfirmandenunterrichts, da teile ich die Ablehnung mancher, hat in staatlichen Einrichtungen nichts verloren.

    Nope, not what we were talking about mate. Op said:

    That's not outrage being directed at the perpetrator, it's outrage being directed at an entire demographic of people of which the perpetrator happens to belong.

    You said :

    It's not in the article, it's in the comment you were replying to. What am I missing?

    So don't try to move the goalposts just because you talked shit, I'm sick of this bullshit.

    We were talking about why a, admittedly monstrous, rapist needs to be used to demonize a whole demographic. You pretended like that wasn't in the article, I proved it was, that is the fucking conversation we're having here.

    Oh I don't know maybe the first three words?

    MONSTERS APPEAL MIGRANT

    Or the next three words that follow

    the MONSTER migrant

    Instead of maybe "the rapist", no we got to tie in that he is a migrant in all caps, at every possible turn.

    Also further down referred to as

    the MONSTER

    Or

    the migrant

    Oh and also let's rope in some unrelated burglar who also happens to be a migrant.

    All very easy to spot so I figure you're not really asking in good faith, just like someone who has an agency in "just asking questions" would do.

    He was also born in Braunau am Inn in Austria and got his German citizenship in Braunschweig.

    There were a couple of other Brauns popping up all over his history, like Wernher von Braun. Funny little coincidences

    Es gibt übrigens auch Mietrechtsberatung vom Mieterverein/Mieterbund/Verbraucherzentrale für schmales Geld, falls die anderen Parteien sich querstellen.

    Grundsätzlich rate ich jedem mietenden eine Mitgliedschaft in einem solchen Verein, sie bieten zb. Rechtsschutz in Mietsachen. Meiner kostet 5€ im Monat, bzw 60 im Jahr.

    Hazel says hi

    European red squirrel, northern Germany. We live right next to a park, where a tree grows partially over our balcony, so the little one can safely come and go. Over the past weeks she's gotten more curious and has been exploring every corner of the balcony, she's also gotten more comfortable with our presence. A few days ago we were having tea outside and she joined us briefly, so we put out some hazelnuts and she returned immediately from her lookout on the tree. ![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Ffeddit.org%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F40903e0b-0c88-40e1-baa7-13da8029d733.jpeg) First she checked from a safe distance. ![](https://lemm.ee/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Ffeddit.org%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2Fcedf74bf-4deb-475c-a215-d7d318b83515.jpeg) She then brought the nuts into several hiding spots around and returned again, at this point she really started to muster us. She then made a big jump right on to our table, ran across it until she sat 30cm in front of my girlfriend and stared right into the camera, that's where we took the title picture. The photo is slightly out of focus because she ran up to us so boldly, we couldn't turn the zoom down quickly enough. After that photo we put the camera down, to enjoy the moment more, she ran around us a little bit and then retreated back to her tree. It seems like we made a friend that day, she comes by periodically, we bought more nuts and although she is careful around us, she accepts our presence. We can move slowly and also talk normally, just fast movements makes her a little skittish. So greetings from Hazel to all of you, we wish you and your squirrel friends a merry autumn!

    edit: Sorry, I'm exhausted for unrelated reasons and that was probably rambling. You can probably safely ignore every part of this post after the first sentence. Hopefully that one adds some conversational or morale value.

    Relax, you're fine, man. I like some insights in people's lives, it's interesting, even though it's only a short window I like to look inside. I figure I'm not the only one.

    Hope you have a great weekend, stranger <3

    Yeah I wasn't answering to your anecdote, just trying to illuminate the purpose of those charts and that their rating is inherently subjective.

    Obviously being dismissive about it is not productive.

    Although there were times where we asked patients to reassess them, almost always when their answers were in the high end of the scale, a dude sitting totally chill drinking tea answering '10' is not really believable and could cloud what's happening. I mostly described it as "1 being a mild inconvenience and 10 being the strongest pain you have ever felt in your life"

    It's not about having an obective answer to your pain levels, that's impossible since everybody experiences pain differently.

    I worked in the hospital for some time and it was my task to protocol those pain tables every day.

    At least where I worked the point of it was to have visualisation of the patients pain development over time.

    For example patients comes in and gives a 8 on the scale. He gets an operation and gives a 6 afterwards, after a week he gives a 5 but in the next week he gives 7 again - this development could tell us something about the healing process, maybe there's an infection that would've slipped by if we didn't see this unusual rise in pain levels.
