Memes.
And I’m not even ironic, I truly believe that is one of the purest form of arts of our time

Yeah there’s nothing in this world that can stop two teenagers that want to have sex with each other.

Yeah flatpak won’t work on my Nokia 3310 either, what a shit software…

Is there really a line which isn’t quotable in this movie?

If you have the possibility to work remotely, this might help a lot.

On a side note, there is something I feel I have to be honest towards you: Jure Sanguinis is a gimmick of the fascist party (they are so fond of Latin names).
They think you have more right to be Italian if your grandfather left the country, because it was a shit place job-wise as it is now, and you know fuck all of our culture than if you lived here your whole life, perfectly integrated, went through school here, work here, pay taxes here but just happened to be born in another country: a friend of mine from Albania had to jump through incredible hoops and managed to get citizenship at 26 despite living here since she was fucking 2 y.o.
Do what you will with this information.

I meant “Bruxelles” as a figurative “European Union” since the EU headquarters are there.

I make it clear because I don’t want to be mistaken for empowering Belgium. /s

Italian living in Italy here.
Yes we have fascists but the americans who commented this post ignore a couple things:

1. our form of government is different from yours, the multi-partisan system helps keeping those things in check;
2. Italy is a founding member of EU and is financially depending on it, so even the fascist know that they cannot just do what they want, otherwhise Bruxelles might pull the plug.

Thus said, the problem here is another: jobs. There is a high level of unemployment, expecially among people that don’t work in super specialized environments, like engineering, CS or healthcare, just to make some examples. I have a lot of friends and relatives that had to move abroad just to make a living.
And I mean A LOT: my best friend lives in Australia, my brother in Ireland, literally half of the company I hanged out with as a teenager lives in Holland and I myself lived in Spain for a couple years before getting an opportunity here. So, unless you work one of these jobs I suggest you to priorityze another country.

Un mio amico è partito un po’ di anni fabper l’Olanda con zero conoscenze di computer eccetto averne montati un paio, ha incominciato a fare IT per le aziende mentre si guardava filmati su youtube per risolvere i problemi che gli capitavano e pian piano ha imparato. Nel frattempo ha preso lezioni di programmazione e adesso gestisce la parte software di una startup. Ovviamente devi trovare una situazione che favorisca questa cosa e in Italia ahimè ce n’è poche.

In my mind, I’ve made it abundantly clear what I want.

Every sentence that starts with “in my mind” is not objective, therefore there is no fault in a faulty translation by the interpreter. If you want to be understood, you can either try to be clearer or give up on the responsibility of being understood. And if you give up on that responsibility, you cannot complain about the outcome of said communication.

You’re either not paying attention, or not focused on me enough to hear what I’m saying

This is an extremely narcissistic way to view relationships: if I’m not focused on you it means that I
A) have something more important to think about
B) I have not understood the gravity of the situation and that can be corrected
Of course if I think something trivial is more important than you it might be a problem, but this is hardly ever the case

now I’m mad enough that I fear I will start an argument if I need to spell it out again

Not talking about it is a wonderful way to start a bigger, heavier argument later

Me: “Ok I’m listening, what do you want to say?”
Every woman I met in my life: “Nothing…”
