Inorganic? You think the CIA is MKUltraing everyone into liking Academy Award-winning films? I think the only culture shift that could potentially happen is that the films are old enough now that the fans feel the need to remind everyone how good they are. In the first decade after release, we kinda assumed that everyone was already aware.

It’s been working out a lot better since the invention of flash freezing. For both sushi and pickled fish, the risk of parasites was always present. Now it’s just as safe as cooked fish and it doesn’t taste any different from raw.

Not really early Germanic though, because every other Germanic language kept the meaning of “animal”. It’s only modern English (since the 1500s) that narrowed it all the way to one specific species (or family of Cervidae).
My guess would be that the language gained the word “animal” from French and “deer” was pushed from its niche and forced to specialize?

How strong is that spider that it can lift a turtle? Will one nuke be enough?

The reverse image search spotted it well, but it isn’t the same image. It’s very likely the source where the image generator got its ideas from though: lemmy.world/post/31578519/17746077

I don’t understand why you’d ever need to know this. What is a phylum anyway? Which animals share a phylum? Are bonobos and chimpanzees in a phylum, a family, a class? And what does that tell us about their relation that we couldn’t already tell from their characteristics?

Be careful, you can’t breathe in bubble mountain. This kid was smart and made a little window in a tall and narrow bubble stack, but in a large pool it’s easier to lose track of the edge of the bubbles.

The steel cubes have liquid inside too? I figured that solid steel would have enough mass and thermal… dynamics? to act as an ice cube, but maybe water is still better. Actually, do they sink or float?

Omou again, fucker.
My sides.
And I know it’s a copypasta and the bad translation is the point, but “akachan” is way too friendly for “You’re fucking dead, kiddo”. I’d go for “gaki”, which is a common part of weeb lingo and literally means “kiddo”, with the same connotations and all.

What would realistically happen when the logs fall off the truck? They still have their forward speed, so braking should be enough to avoid them, right?

What is your point? You don’t want to swear, but you don’t not want to swear either? Maybe sort out your beliefs then.
- Comment on minor tomfoolery 🛻💨🎶 4 weeks ago:
If you don’t want to swear, don’t swear. Mildly censoring a swear word to “f*ck” doesn’t accomplish anything. Everyone who reads it knows exactly what it says. And if you go far enough to make it unrecognizable, like “!@#*”, now you’re just pretending to swear, but for what purpose? Couldn’t you accomplish your goals by rephrasing to avoid a swear word entirely? (Assuming your goal is to avoid swear words, of course. If the goal is to sound like a cartoon character, consider taking up a funny catch phrase.)

The strongest urinators are cicadas, but there’s other animals that score higher on the Jet Shape? I guess ~100 Jet Shape must be peak then and everything higher than that is actually a weaker form of urination.

- Comment on Anon is behind enemy lines 5 weeks ago:
When my colleagues are being bigots, I try to tell them some personal experience, because that’s what they respond best to. Sadly, they often conclude that I’m one of the good ones and their bigotry is generally valid. I just hope that with enough examples of “good ones” in their mind, they’ll remember one without me having to push back.

Not tryna start a subs vs dubs debate, just shitposting about House and live-action adaptations of classic anime (which House is, but not the one you might think…)

Animation is too difficult for me to follow and foreign languages are for children.

Either you’re unplugging it to move it somewhere else and plugging it in there, or you’re unplugging it for good, boxing it up and putting it in a shed. Neither scenario ends up with loose plugs on your floor.
- Comment on The clueless people are out there among us 1 month ago:
I don’t think it’s fair to judge plugs by how they behave when dropped on the floor (unless they’re exposing live wires). Do you often have a lot of loose plugs lying around? If you find yourself unplugging things a lot to turn them off, you may be interested to hear the switch was invented not long after the light bulb for exactly this reason.

Couldn’t you still easily tell which side of the print got the initial impact of the heel and which side has the curve of the toes? Again, depending on weight of person and type of ground, but I think it would look off even to a layperson.

Keep in mind that Frozen came out in 2013, 12 years ago. The children who were in the prime target demographic back then (4-10 years old), are teens/adults now (16-22). Some of those kids will have imprinted on Elsa a little harder than anyone intended. So when they start developing their sexuality, they somehow have a preference for blonde braids and pointy noses. There’s really nothing wrong with that. Just be happy it wasn’t Olaf.
