Nah, the trick is to have a box lid or other cat trap next to the keyboard. It’s easier to trick them to thinking they won a different game.

Around 2% of your DNA comes from Neanderthals. If we were scared off by them, it wouldn’t have been for too long before we decided the sex was worth it.

Or don’t twist an ankle having to trek up and down hills without sidewalks. And if you have bad knees, that goes double.

Wait, let me check the math…

6+6=12 and 7 is one more than 6, so 6+7=13

Cool. Checks out.

About a year after it came out, I was singing along with it during a depressive episode and realized ‘seven’ wasn’t accurate anymore. It freaked me out, but I realized that part of the nature of the song is the impending doom, and I have to change the lyrics when I get to that part.

…Four more to go.

So you have empathy and understanding for yourself, but no one else.

Cool. 🙄

I agree that those studies should be done. Studies should ALSO be done on people with unvaccinated covid infections, but we can’t do that on a large number of people, because they’re dead. The vaccinated people might have a ‘non-zero risk for blood clots’, but they’re still alive in the meantime.

This was the same reaction I had when the Covid vaccines were rolling out. “They haven’t been proven to be 100% safe and effective!” OK. Sure, but you know what is guaranteed to be bad for you? Covid. There are two choices here, and there’s a clear mitigation of harm with one option over the other.

It’s shocking that we’d rather see children die of treatable vitamin deficiencies than the off-chance that the food ‘might be unsafe’.

So, in the screenshot where it says it was “submitted by [deleted]”: I can’t be 100%, but I’m pretty sure that’s what it looks like when the post was deleted entirely. It wasn’t a ‘blank’ post. It was a rant against GIMP in the GIMP subreddit as someone else posted here.

To the point where I legitimately thought it was a mockery of the series. Oof.

I remember one of l Hank Green’s older videos when he added up all the viewtime from all of their videos and realized it was longer than the average human lifespan. Of course, he immediately framed it as “We’ve killed a man!”

Hot damn, this is a lot of condescension for the shittiest “both sides” take.

Reposting this from one of last times she did something insanely TERF-y. (2 months ago) It really feels like she’s desperately trying to convince herself.

It’s sad that she’s likely repressing a LOT of gender dysphoria, but just doubles down on the bigotry and hate. Fuck JK Umbridge.

All direct quotes:

I believe I could have been persuaded to turn myself into the son my father had openly said he’d have preferred.

As I didn’t have a realistic possibility of becoming a man back in the 1980s, it had to be books and music that got me through.

I remember how mentally sexless I felt in youth.

Fortunately for me, I found my own sense of otherness, and my ambivalence about being a woman…

“Wait, you’re still using store-bought ashes? Haven’t you ever made your own? It’s super easy, and you don’t have to worry if your bone ash is ever cut with Birch anymore.”

midnight

Oh no. Do you mean Midnight for each monestary locally, or do you mean when it’s midnight at our prime monestary that it is cast? Three are in the time zone an hour ahead, and seven are an hour behind! They need to happen simultaneously for it to work!

This is why I love Dimension20’s DnD shows. Capitalism is always the bad guy.

Snaps. Yes.

You dont respect my existence, you can expect my resistance.

Y’all should read ‘The Jungle’. The main character tries to solve every problem this exact way, by doubling down and repeatedly telling himself, “I will work harder.”

Mild spoilers, but it doesn’t work out great for him until he finds socialism.
