  • I’d argue that especially people in bad situations, eg. being poor, in war or that have chronic illnesses, try to believe in something that helps them as a placebo. That just means religion is a consequence of being miserable or brainwashed though, not that the religion (including atheism) changes anything really.


  • Well our christmas lasts 3 days, basically. Gifts are given on the evening of the 24th, then there’s the 25 and 26ths for just chilling with the family and enjoying arguments in 150db. On the 24th, we have fondue, and the 25 and 26ths are the days for “Sauerbraten”, basically a huge chunk of beef (the majority of 1/8 cow) pickled in vegetables, raisins, wine and vinegar, multiple liters of each, for a month. Then it’s slowly cooked until it basically deconstructs itself on your fork, and is served with its sauce. So it’s designed to last for 2 days, for around 4-6 people. Leftovers get frozen, and it’s a nice treat after a long schoolday, or workday now.
