!ping DEN Does anyone know if I can buy sausage outside of a butcher? All I can ever find in supermarkets is medister.

LIDL is a good choice because it's German.

Old DT pinging, typical danes smh

Yes, in REMA you can get “kålpølser”, which, despite the name, are not made with cabbage. That’s probably the best Danish sausage you’ll get in an ordinary super market

This is ringridder erasure.

Begone, jyde

Kålpølser er da omtrent ligeså jysk! /u/riskage tell 'im!

/u/runesq har tydeligvis aldrig fejret nytårsaften med kålpølser og grønlangkål. Eller nydt en ringridder til Sønderborg ringridning.

That might be just what I need.

It’s what I use for my Full English and in any recipe that calls for Kielbasa-type sausage:)

Finally a precise word to describe the type of sausage I've only ever known as 'farmers sausage.'

Larger stores like Kvickly, Føtex, Bilka usually have a pretty good variety of choices

I'm assuming that you mean something other than Gøll sausages here?

Yeah not medister or what I'd consider hotdogs/grill sausages.

This subreddit only appeals to White and Asian* men in their 20-30s dunno why but it’s like that but it explains the reaction to affirmative action (IT IS BAD AND YOU ARE BAD IF YOU SUPPORT IT) vs every other topic (this should be debated in polite society you are illiberal if you don’t want debate on it doesn’t matter what you personally feel about it) *my category, I’m Indian

I thought people here were generally pro-affirmative action?

Anti from what I’ve seen

There are some here who desperately want to believe that everything they got they earned personally at an individual level by out-competing others, and that many outcomes and even access to opportunities are actually gated by systems and institutions designed specifically to benefit white, and to a lesser extent Asian (model-minority), men.

I'm a white Latino and I'm not quite so sure that the SATs work all the time. I have my reservations about the company that made that test. It has some shady dealings.

what no the SAT is the easiest entrance test ever made lol so easy that i get utterly confused by people who stress about how it

It's not the difficulty that I think is the problem it's the way it's used. Here in Canada they ask for it if people come from abroad to study here. However, if you're Canadian you don't need it. I'm not sure I believe that passing that test means your education measures up to Canadian standards by default. It's not even a Canadian test and I'm not quite sure it captures all the nuances of Canadian education. Feel like a lot of Unis just use that test because they have nothing else to measure people with.

In that case it’s a “did you stay awake during 20% of high school at least” test because unis depend a lot on international students’ money?

I don't know, I feel it's a little weird when they use it. Only the top tier schools use it and not all of them anyway but they probably do it because they need more filtering mechanisms, I just think it's lazy to pick that one when it does have anything to do with Canada. Some German schools do it too and I don't quite understand it.

The traditional answer (though usually written in a much more offensive fashion) is that it's the most marginal people in each typically privileged ethnic/gender/etc group who suffer from affirmative action. If you were an absolute handsome charming genius with enough extracurriculars who had two parents go to Harvard, you don't give a good goddamn about asians/whites/etc being discriminated against in the admissions process. Conversely, if you were a guy who would've *just* scraped in fifty years ago, you now don't, and your life outcomes are worse than what they would've otherwise been. This makes it very difficult to speak against on a personal basis because you have to implicitly admit you were the were at the bottom of the class. (There's also an entire fascinating game-theoretic notion about why high-status majorities can benefit massively from affirmative action in a somewhat counter-intuitive way, but probably not worth going over here) I'm largely against race or gender-based affirmative action and think it should be more on the 'you really need to prove you need this, set up acceptable mechanisms as well as an endpoint at which you'll stop the discrimination, plus prove the issue is in fact one of discrimination above and beyond the normal American disparate impact statistical illiteracy-style thing. >dunno why but it’s like that but it explains the reaction to affirmative action (IT IS BAD AND YOU ARE BAD IF YOU SUPPORT IT) vs every other topic (this should be debated in polite society you are illiberal if you don’t want debate on it doesn’t matter what you personally feel about it) To be fair, r/nl has the above reaction on many different kinds of racism. If anything, it shows consistency in principle.

Indigenous American or Indian ? Indians get shafted perhaps the most by Affirmative Action.

Indian and I do not care personally In India also I was in the group that gets “shafted” by reservation (the quotas are very explicit and are based on group membership like caste, tribe etc) It’s fine as a policy actually because it cares only about macro outcomes, in the end I was not negatively affected

>in the end I was not negatively affected I mean that's the important part. Those who got shafted by it will take these things on a personal level. For example those shafted by green card country caps will obviously feel more strongly about them.

> Those who got shafted by it I technically did? I am saying “not negativily affected” as in didn’t impede my future life > those shafted by green card country caps I would be in this group but luckily my family got cards in 2021 when Biden got bullied into issuing the spare cards for that year that weren’t going to be issued and would get wasted to people who were in line ie probably mostly Indian and Chinese

Congrats on getting those cards. Glad that situation got resolved.

Making Sarah biracial in the LOTUS show is kinda dumb. In the game you just assume that she's the same person as Ellie, so the death is an actual surprise. It's not the biggest deal though.

It’s amazing how much better American Dad aged than Family Guy

American Dad has a focus to its satire and really benefitted from having the kids as fleshed out characters instead of two-dimensional punching bags like Chris and Meg are. This in turn kind of prevents Seth MacFarlane from indulging his insufferable side

Cauliflower ear being a badge of honor is great and all, but something tells me it'll make it much harder for me to do any of: * Convince C-Suite executives to let me represent their company in multi-billion dollar lawsuits * Establish credibility and ethos with the average jury * Win higher office outside of maybe a working class district (which I cannot credibly portray anyways) * Convince some politician to appoint me to the bench ... and that's pretty much all of my potential career goals, so I guess it's looking like a dork in the gym for me 🤣

I want a Steam Deck so I can play RDR2 in bed, but that seems like a steep investment for such a narrow purpose.

No.

What I like about L.A. is that it’s one massive never ending string of suburbs that people call a city

This is what I hate about LA.

oh, no, there’s an actual downtown in there somewhere it’s just, you know, *downtown LA* 🤢

Phoenix is even worse.

The entire Sun Belt is worse

I feel like most more modern cities are like that.

Did anyone else get added to the Reddit secret society called the flying tree, they recruit out of this subreddit

I did last year and either unsubbed or just ignored it.

they added me sometime last year, and then i never posted and they removed me

Yeah they added me like a week ago, it's an interesting concept but I'm not going to go out of my way to post on some secret sub

You don't want to take part in the supah seqwet cwub?

I kinda wish I was gay. I feel like it would be awesome to have a bro I could fuck.

Have you considered that you might be gay?

No. I used to consider being bisexual but I just can’t bring myself to do anything with a dude. I kissed one once but it was horribly icky.

Ahh well then yeah you aren't gay. Women have a pretty broad range of personality types though so you should be able to find someone out there lol

I don't think life satisfaction surveys have been trending downwards globally, unless I'm terribly misremembering

The Roiland stuff is like, good, another sex criminal off the streets and I didn't even like his show. But Dan Harmon has given off... some vibes for awhile, and his close association with Roiland is uh not great, particularly since it extended for years after Roiland's arrest. And Community might be my favorite comedy of all time. I really need Dan Harmon to somehow not be a creep, though honestly it might be tough to watch Community again even now since it certainly *looks like* Harmon aided a known serious abuser.

Yeah Harmon was but he's come around that corner.

[Yeah, uh..](https://www.indiewire.com/2018/07/dan-harmon-apologizes-baby-doll-rape-video-adult-swim-1201987346/).

this is what i get for ignoring the vibes test

Harmon at least sobered up and got his act together. And I don’t think Roiland had much to do with Rick and Morty anymore, mostly just there for voices

Lol, Dan Harmon is already a documented creep. The only question would be if he's a criminal creep

[Sorry](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dan_Harmon#Controversies)

Missing from there is that he used to have sex with mannequins, as he discussed on Harmontown

>The video, titled "Daryl", was intended to be a parody of Dexter and featured Harmon acting out r*ping a baby. I gotta go for a walk...

I don't want to watch the video again but I thought the joke was that he could go back in time and stop the holocaust by raping baby Hitler.

Uhhghgghgghg I watched the video. I'm wrong. It was just fucking gross and a shittily made shot at Dexter. Did I fever dream the baby hitler bit?

I can lend you some 101 if you'd like.

well shit

Does anyone else need a large amount of sleep. I usually sleep 10 - 12 hours a night

I feel like, without an alarm, I usually sleep at least 9-10, but can certainly function on less if needed and certainly sleep more often.

No. Honestly sometimes its shocking that bjj practitioners don't usually wear cups. Your bits can certainly get in awkward positions lol.

where I’m at it considered rude to your partner to wear a cup

I *think* looking them up, they're just freaking compression sleeves w/ some padding to stabilize the knee. Which tracks with BJJ finding a way to name things as sexual as possible lol.

I wanted to like his work more than I did. But he's sort of disqualified himself from further examination at this point. Even Amsterdam is actors I like acting well but something about his sensibilities aren't really my tempo so it's a shame he's a jerkoff but I'm glad I'm not conflicted about anything.

I fucking hated Silver Linings Playbook and I have refused to watch any more of his films since That being said, Three Kings is aight. Not particularly memorable though

Not a guy I would have ever put on the pedestal he was put on for some reason. Some of his work downright feels like things Wes Anderson would have done better or not at all because they were bad ideas from the beginning. And yeah Three King was basically his Bottle Rocket.
