My parents had bought a book on the subject to read to us kids. I got a hold of it first and read it by myself. When my dad brought me to bed, I “educated” him about where kids come from. It’s still one of my parents’ favorite stories about me as a kid.

In school, sex ed was alright. They taught us everything we need to know incl. how to prevent STDs and pregnancies. The only thing I would criticize in hindsight is that they used giant test tubes (25cm) to teach us how to put on condoms. That made a lot of boys feel inadequate.

Pepper can also translate to Paprika though when talking about plants. A pepper plant is a paprika in German. Spicy peppers are chillies.

This one got me

This is disturbing

Cicero would’ve been my pick, too

Maybe you need to cry even harder?

Same. Fuck that place. I miss some of the subs, but I’m not going back.

Paid 700€ for mine (Germany). It’ll pay for itself since we no longer have any other cost for contraceptives. My wife is very happy, too. She had some issues with the pill.

We have two kids. Childcare alone exceeds those 700€ every month ;)

I tried my hand at sourdough breads, but failed miserably. How long did it take you to become decent at it?

Gardening or more specifically raising fruit trees. Right now I got about 50 citrus trees growing from trifoliate orange seeds. Once they’re ready I am going to graft lemons and satsumas onto them. I’m not planning to sell the trees, rather I’ll gift them to friends and family.

I also propagate houseplants and gift them to friends, family and colleagues. Since they’re so easy to propagate it’s almost no effort.

They mention god a lot huh
