Hardly surprising coming from a nation where a third of you think dogs can get autism and about half can't read good
half can't read good
It should be 'read well', not good. 'Good' is an adjective and is always used with a noun. 'Well' is an adverb and is used to modify a verb, adverb or another adjective and answers the question 'how?'. Since the verb is 'read' it would need the adverb 'well' to modify the verb.
Congratulations on missing the point

Unidan? In MY lemmy?
The difference between the US and Europe in this regard is that Europeans are a bit more discreet with their crazy people. EU have 3 times the population as the United States does, obviously they’re gonna have ~3 times more crazy people than we do. They just don’t talk much about it, while, in the US, the crazy people refuse to shut the fuck up
Edit: I mistakingly used EU instead of Europe when referring to a population of around 750 million. The EU does not have that population, but Europe, generally speaking, it does. That was my mistake.
Edit: yikes, a lot of crazy people disagree with me
EU vs US population
EU ~450 million, US ~350 million
Even if 750 million is accurate, that's definitely not 3x the population of the US.
Education makes a tremendous difference. Americans have mentally ill people probably at the same rate as EU, but also has ignorant people and that’s where the difference is made up. If you travel 3 hrs in USA, you’ll find the same culture. If you travel 3 hrs in Europe, you’ll be in a different culture altogether.
Crazy vs. uneducated. Two different things. Not being able to read or not knowing how vaccines work is not a crazy person thing, it's an uneducated person thing.
The education in the EU is better AND it's free. That's why there are less dumb people who are anti-vaxers and can't read.
They are not more discreet. They actually just have better educated people.
Being better education also helps deal with mental health issues in addition to having free healthcare (although it's lacking in the mental health department), so less people are actually going crazy and doing things like school shootings or voting for a rapist in the presidential elections.
It's all education.
I once worked with a guy who let me know that he was manic schizophrenic. Let's call him Bob (his name was not Bob).
He told me that he has a power out of his control where he can time travel to anywhere in his timeline to his own body, past or future. He would then inform and warn people of whatever, and would announce himself by saying "future Bob is here".
He seemed like a nice guy, but I didn't really know what to say to that. I never got to experience an episode of his, and he didn't last very long at the job. I wonder what that guy is doing now...
Florida man strikes again.
We've all been there
The burden of proof is on the prosecution. They have to show he didn't.
hehe, a fair trial in america, that's cute
Worst season finale, ever.
nah bro the mods have gotta fix this these ai NPCs are getting out of hand
Florida: [Alcoholic bath salts devourer hits wall.]
EuroLemmy: Americans don’t believe in mental health
Americans: [Grind jaws, sniff reflexively]
Uuuuh, what are you talking about?
They'll need to explain the term "mental health".
Not just a case of not believing in it. Not even aware what the term could mean.
[Nonsensical jargon]
I believe him.
Our town had the case of the time traveling chef.
Im from a small vacation resort town with a strong historical theme to it. Its a beach town, with many seasonal workers coming in for the summer.
One of these, a chef, was new in town, and ate some magic mushrooms, and decided to go for a walk. He dipped into the woods, and came out the other side tripping, in the old historic district. It was also like 3 am, and there were no cars on the road. Apparently, his phone battery died somewhere allong the walk.
Fron this, he surmised he must have traveled back in time to the 1800s, and realized his money was no good, because it was dated in the future. So he decided to start walking home, hoping his house still (used to?) Exist.
Eventually his walk took him by a driveway, with a taxi parked in it, still running, with the lights on. He decided that the cab must have fallen through whatever temporal anomaly had brought him there, and decides to drive it back home. Which he does successfully, and falls asleep.
He wakes up the next morning to police, let in by his coworkers, whove found the cab which was obviously reported stolen. (The owner had apparently stopped at home for a quick minute mid shift, in a town where thats absolutely safe enough to leave you're keys in your car for a moment)
He gets charged, gets a court date. Shows up court, figures he was caught red handed, and decides to just be honest, and tells them that story, eith the exception of changing magic mushrooms to 'bad truffles' i a thinly disguised attempt to not self incriminate.
Judge is laughing, cabbie is laughing. They agree to drop all charges in exchange for restitution (something like $500, as though he had 'rented' the cab for 12 hours) court fees, and the agreement that he 'find supervision for any future mycological endeavors'
that made me laugh > u < actually read that one all the way through
what a magically glorious story
