Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What book did you read last and what book are you currently reading? Would you recommend either of those books?English
5·5 months agoLast book: Children of ruin. I didnt really like this one, while i was in awe of the brilliance of Children of time.
Currently reading a non-fiction book called The genius of birds. I already knew from direct experience how smart birds are, including ones that people perceive as dumb, like pigeons. But this book really gives a different perspective in how birds are complex creatures that adapt to their environments in intelligent ways, and how other birds will instantly copy these novel ways.

14·5 months agoI know that dogs are, but i don’t know the percentages. You can see it by observing the front paws when they start to walk; which one do they usually start with

[Migrated, see pinned post] Casual Conversation @lemm.ee•What dietary requirements do you have and why?English
52·8 months agoWhat you said, though in my european country it’s not necessarily cheaper. In fact, some vegan foods are crazy expensive. As an aside (not food); i used to buy non-leather shoes pretty cheaply. Then marketing worldwide figured out to call them ‘vegan shoes’ and bam, expensive shoes…

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•There's probably some kind of deal between cellphone and pants makers to keep pockets smallEnglish
13·8 months agoFunny thing is; i have never, ever heard even one woman complaining about silhouette because of pockets. But every woman complains about lack of pockets, or that they are ridiculously small

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Why do males complain about female-led stories or too many female characters when the majority are still dominated by males?English
3·10 months agoOne of the ways i select a movie or series is by watching the poster. That tells me enough about whether it will be about male heroes and (maybe) female sidekicks or mothers in the kitchen. Particularly american ones have a lot of those movies. So, these i will not even try to watch anymore.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How to avoid arthritis later in life?English
4·11 months agoLots of things already mentioned, but to add: Be careful playing certain sports. Damaging your joints frequently can also lead to osteo arthritis or make it appear earlier.
Stop comparing yourself to others. You are you, and you can’t possibly please or displease everyone anyway
