what is finnahappen?

congrats you just explained Saussurean linguistics

a direct translation in english.

I'm fascinated by these sorts of things.

In Maltese you can say "qbadtha minn-sormha" which, when translated literally, means "grabbing it by the ass", but is used to express a situation in which someone has completely misinterpreted what you were trying to explain.

Hi, and my apologies for essentially using this forum however which way I please with this bump. Something deeply upsetting took place here yesterday, and despite all those around me echoing the same frustrations I'm going to relay here, I feel like tftv is still the only space wherein I'm comfortable expressing such things.

It's been three years since I made this thread and the situation here feels abysmal and hopeless. Overdevelopment has been rampant. Property prices keep soaring. Wages are still as miserable as they were pre-covid. Despite all this, our economy appears to be doing splendidly (selling fucking passports for minimum 600K a pop helps). The goldrush to keep developers happy and in business has long surpassed its tipping point, and a complete disregard for structural regulations manifested itself in the form of an endemic of buildings collapsing.

Seven months ago, one such building collapse took the life of 20 year old Jean Paul Sofia. His mother has been pushing for an independent public inquiry into the cause of his death ever since. Yesterday, an Opposition motion introduced in parliament calling for such an inquiry was defeated, with every single government MP voting against the motion.

This was an opportunity for the government to possibly right the wrong of a series of systemic injustices that resulted not only in Sofia's death, but in the deaths of the many other lives lost in building collapses, and the potential lives saved in the future. Everyone around me is beyond furious. In a country where political culture is extremely black-or-white, even lifelong Labour voters have boldly and rightfully expressed disgust towards their government. To me, the motion's defeat signals more clearly than ever whose pockets are lined with the money and interests of developers...

I thought they were both synonymous with each other. Is there a distinction?

What are your views on self-defeating humour? Are jokes where a person mocks themselves bad to make?

I'm so so excited this guy is finally releasing a record =)
For the uninitiated, Knobs is a legend in the youtube-guitar-pedal-reviewing-community-thing. All his demos feature this idiosyncratic, cutesy, dainty playing style (he also has a few synthesizer demos and other fun one-offs =)

It's been a long time coming but fans of the channel have been begging for this dude to record and release his own music for years and finally it's fucking happening :D This first single doesn't disappoint and I am very excited :)))))

ok bye

about 2 months ago I finally called off a relationship of about 10 months. As I'm continuing to process it I'm only further realizing how toxic and emotionally manipulative my partner was. I feel like I was lured into a relationship with someone extremely welcoming and open-minded, however as time kept going by, this person kept showing themselves to be increasingly demanding to the point of making me feel like I was never good enough, would engage in conflict with me extremely frequently and deny me whenever I'd question if having so much conflict in a relationship was healthy, and use tactics like silent treatment and pouting. I really loved this person at the time, to the point where I felt like all this was a measly sacrifice in the grand scheme of things, but this ultimately meant that I kept enabling this behaviour even further.

As I move forward, I'm very happy to no longer be with this person, but I can't help but feel a lot of anger build up inside me when I think about them now. I look back at the good times and can't help but get angry at myself for not standing up for myself and always playing into their demands, as well as angry at them for taking the liberty of having their way with me and making me feel like I'm always lacking something...

could be real

Harsh noise and power electronics music are extremely cathartic genres for me. I understand why some people won't even consider them as music, but they do something for me that I can't quite get out of any other sound.
Sometimes I also like to listen to number station recordings.
I would also really recommend at least one listen of Peter Sotos' Buyer's Market. This album can be very disturbing and unpleasant for some, but I still think there's something to gain out of the experience of listening to this record.
