    What can I do daily to improve my on-the-spot cognitive abilities?

    Hey all I just came across an emergency situation irl that I felt useless in because of how slowly I was thinking. Basically it was someone getting an epileptic seizure and I had the info in my head for what to do but I did end up freezing a bit before I did anything. Really didn't like it. The person is fine now but if I had reacted faster, we might have been able to prevent a couple problems. I've been in other emergencies before where I had to call the shots but I guess I want to think faster and keep it consistent at a higher level, and I want to improve on it for future scenarios, but what can I do to do that? Edit: Just wanted to say thanks for everyone's replies, I'll be looking into a routine to acclimate myself with these kinds of situations

    I'm sorry, I'm not sure if it's my lack of sleep or a reading comprehension issue on my end but I don't understand your question. Though to answer it literally, English is so influential in my country that our schools tend to speak, read, and write in English more often than our native languages. If you speak English well, it's likely that you'll be regarded as a high-class individual by a good chunk of people here.

    Unfortunately, that has threatened our own identity - to our people's cultural detriment and annoyance - as you'll probably see via English public discourse on American social media interwebs... which is why I'm saying, hey, why don't we stop paying attention to what the US is doing every now and then? I mean, how's Ukraine been really? What's happening with their EU membership? Maybe if the US wasn't always on the world stage they can actually participate more authentically and we can stop defaulting to making fun of kids dying in schools as a counterpoint, you know? It's messed up wherever it happens.

    Fair, I suppose because the US tends to be belittled so often online so I never made the connection to those sizable facts. It's a bit too much still though, don't you think? News about the US somehow always taking over headlines? The world always looks at the US. There's always something about Elon Musk or the American government even on Lemmy's "non-Reddit-exodus" instances. When Apple releases a new phone, people won't stop talking about it positively and negatively. Europe does a better job with most things yet it's less common to find them in the spotlight.

    To be fair, the US always seems to be the center of attention anywhere you go. Why that is exactly, I don't know. I mean for fuck's sake, I live all the way out in bumfuck Asia and somehow news about American pop culture makes it here better than my local news does most of the time.

    I'm not belittling America's problems but sometimes I feel like people can benefit from being made aware that too much exposure to anything - like criticism of other countries - is detrimental to our world view. It's literally The Cultivation Theory at work.

    Found this moka pot at a friend's relative's house, they said it's been in their family for a bit over a decade. It just broke about a week ago, but it seems like it means a lot to them. Unfortunately they're a little too old to check out how to get it fixed, so I'm thinking of doing it for them in the near future just as a gesture. Question is, is it possible?

    Your best friend is leaving the country for a better life. You make a playlist to show how you feel. What songs are in that playlist?

    Hey Lemmy. In my friend group we have someone that's immigrating to a different country to pursue a better life. None of us can follow her (at least not yet) and she'll be all by her lonesome for quite a while. Before she goes though, we want to write letters which we'll hide in her bag along with a QR code to a playlist she can read all of the letters to. Generally, [this is the kind of vibe I was hoping for](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQ0pazUc3ZA) for the playlist but suggestions are always open. If you have a song that goes perfectly with the imagery of a tough 27-year-old girl in an airport resisting her emotions but inevitably getting her tears all over her 20+ friends' love letters... please share it! Thank you guys, and if you feel like sharing, I'd love to hear stories about how your song(s) make you feel as well. Happy Lemmy'ing all

    What's your "Fine, I'll do it myself" song(s)?

    Just looking to have some fun here. Imagine this: Your boss assigns a difficult task to a co-worker who you know will ask you to "help out" for the nth time. You want to refuse but you don't trust his skill if he's left alone and neither does management. "Fine," you think, "I'll do it myself". Your eyes squint in contempt and a few songs play in your head as you begin the paltry task before you. What are those songs? An example: [Feels Like Summer - Childish Gambino](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1B9Fk_SgI0&pp=ygUiY2hpbGRpc2ggZ2FtYmlubyBmZWVscyBsaWtlIHN1bW1lcg%3D%3D) (Mods if YouTube links aren't allowed just let me know, couldn't find anything in the sidebar)
