I think it would be super awkward if you’ve been widowed.

I mean, you’re supposed to meet everyone again, including your former spouses who had been waiting for you.

All good but I’d just like to point something out.

When you boil pasta you’re actually hydrating it, and it’s a process that occurs above 80C, you don’t need water to be boiling savagely.

In fact, it’s preferable to let pasta simmer, as full boiling is a bit too “violent” and tends to damage most kinds of pasta.

You know, when some pieces are broken and torn like when it’s overcooked? You can avoid that by keeping the temperature low.

Some people in Italy even turn the fire off after the water has started boiling ,as the water is hot enough to cook the pasta and keep it nice and firm.

It’s the narrow thought process of one who has always lived in the she spot, I would imagine.

I don’t know what “being registered to vote” means exactly in the US, but intuitively it sounds like an unnecessary level of complication and an undemocratic practice.

Not that my country (Italy) can be taken as an example, but even being it the paradigm of red tape and overcomplicating things, people automatically get a voting card wherever they’re living and they vote.

It feels like there’s room for improvement tbh.

It’s taught in schools, and anyway, you’re glossing over the fact that the poster above proved your claim wrong (Germans are all uncomfortable with their history), which is just plain false.

That’s not true at all, Germans make a big effort in remembering what they did and making sure it keeps being remembered.

As opposed to my country, Italy, where the attitude after the fall of Mussolini was “uh, oh well”.

There’s also to take into consideration the fact that people experience dips of productivity throughout the day. Like, I’d never be able to start something that requires most of my brain power after 3.

For others it’s early morning.

So, when I was in the office I would just kill time, go on coffee breaks or just do fucking nothing until it was time to go home, and I know for a fact that it was like that for most of my colleagues.

No one works 8 hours straight out of an 8 hours work day. Working from home just removes the torture of sticking around looking busy.

I actually complete from home the same amount of tasks I used to at the office, really, because my productivity (and that of others) wasn’t constant there either.
