- Comment on Is there a point to the Straight Of Hormuz? What is the difference between the Iranians having it than the US? What does it mean for the average joe in either country? 3 days ago:
You’re giving them way too much credit here. Trump didn’t “do a coup” in Venezuela. They abducted one guy. It’s the same regime. They didn’t even intend to bring another group into power. Basically the same thing in Iran except they hoped (stupidly) that the regime would fall.
‘They’re going wild with incompetent, lazy, ineffectual imperialism’ is more accurate.

I SAID good day!
- Comment on 10.99 for a beer with..... ai pictures on it. 1 week ago:
Oh man, you ARE alleging it. Hilarious.
You’ve been shown evidence that humans have designed art for them. If you have evidence that humans are no longer designing art for them, have at it. Otherwise, good day.
- Comment on 10.99 for a beer with..... ai pictures on it. 1 week ago:
It’s the artist’s page and he’s grouped the art by project. You not being able to access one of the most commonly used social networks for artists to share work doesn’t invalidate it. I could access it just fine. Someone being involved in multiple art forms isn’t at all unusual.
Like, what, you’re alleging that this is now a grand conspiracy to plant fake artists all over the internet on different platforms over multiple years to obfuscate AI use by some tiny brewery in Montreal?
You’ve gotta be causing local tinfoil shortages.

I won’t really owe you an apology. I’m more than happy to accept it now with evidence. I’ll be equally happy if evidence becomes available in the future.
- Comment on 10.99 for a beer with..... ai pictures on it. 1 week ago:
That’s not evidence.
- Comment on 10.99 for a beer with..... ai pictures on it. 1 week ago:
I’ve seen no evidence that they have, only people insisting it’s AI without evidence. If you have evidence, share it. Otherwise, they’re a small brewery and don’t deserve to be targeted with a misinformation campaign.
- Comment on 10.99 for a beer with..... ai pictures on it. 1 week ago:
This is false.
The brewery has apparently used this art style for years. It’s made by human artists.
The original Reddit thread this is a copy of has been deleted. I would assume for this reason.

Echoing: talk to a doctor. Keep taking to doctors until you figure out the problem.
Someone suggested it could be low b12, but I’ve been having the sublingual spray for months and there’s no improvement.
If you suspect a B12 deficiency, get tested for it. With serious deficiency you’d likely also see low hemoglobin, low hematocrit, and low neutrophil count in your blood work. Just to be clear though: I’m not a doctor.
The vast majority of “sublingual” B12 is absorbed in the gut. Very little is absorbed through the mucosa. If you have a b12 absorption problem, you may need a B12 injection. You can either get one from a doctor or do it yourself with an insulin needle, if you’re comfortable. I’ve had a B12 deficiency that couldn’t be resolved with any form of oral B12 supplementation.

It seemed to work for Arasaka so 🤷♂️
- Comment on the Home Alone house then and now 1 week ago:
I don’t think this can be true. The house interiors in the movie weren’t filmed on location. They were custom sets built into a school gymnasium. So everything in the “before” photos are sets and set decoration.
- Comment on When Stephen Colbert had The Colbert Report did the right ever realize he was doing a parody of them? 2 weeks ago:
Oh yeah, totally. I was thinking that after I posted it. They knew what they were getting but were shocked at what they got.
- Comment on When Stephen Colbert had The Colbert Report did the right ever realize he was doing a parody of them? 2 weeks ago:
The WHCA invited him - and organize the entire event. Bush didn’t have anything to do with it. They definitely knew who he was and that the character was satirical.
- Comment on When Stephen Colbert had The Colbert Report did the right ever realize he was doing a parody of them? 2 weeks ago:
He was invited by the WHCA, not the White House or Republicans. They knew what they were getting.
- Comment on Someone said I post an average of 6 posts a day. Where did they get that type of information? Not upset curious cause it's another way I can compliment others with facts about them. 2 weeks ago:
I’d say they looked at your profile and divided your post count by your account age but you’ve only posted about 2 posts per day. Or ~3.5 combined posts/comments.
So maybe they looked at your posts over some other time interval. Or maybe they made up a number. Or maybe… some third thing.
- Comment on Is there a fediverse service that access most fediverse networks? 2 weeks ago:
But it has so much potential! Really overhauling the UI would make a huge difference.
My last attempt to make a go with Friendica was friendica.world. Even with just a few thousand users they couldn’t really get it to scale. It was laggy or throwing off errors regularly and sometimes unusable for days. Just a rough experience. Although that was a while ago now and I’m not sure about the state of that server. Who knows, maybe they figured it all out.
- Comment on Is there a fediverse service that access most fediverse networks? 2 weeks ago:
In my experience it’s not so hot as a user either.
- Comment on Is there a fediverse service that access most fediverse networks? 2 weeks ago:
Friendica does what you’re looking for.

It would’ve taken you less time than posting this weird complaint.
- Comment on Ate there more galaxies in the universe, than stars that can be seen from Earth with the naked eye, or with a telescope? 3 weeks ago:
Damn. This is complicated. We can’t even count 1-10 trees properly. How did someone manage to count all 3 trillion??
- Comment on Ate there more galaxies in the universe, than stars that can be seen from Earth with the naked eye, or with a telescope? 3 weeks ago:
Where are they hiding all these trees? I just looked outside and saw, like, 5 tops.
- Comment on is it just my TV that goes black during replays during the world cup? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve not had that happen on either Crave or TSN, which should be the same feed.
- Comment on Ok to dual boot Linux and Windows 10? 3 weeks ago:
This, 100%. It’ll probably ruin your day but it won’t ruin your life.
- Comment on Ok to dual boot Linux and Windows 10? 3 weeks ago:
No doubt. I can’t just have had 20+ years of good luck though, right? I think the risk is relatively small.
- Comment on Ok to dual boot Linux and Windows 10? 3 weeks ago:
I’ve dual booted every version of Windows since XP on the same drive. I’ve never had the bootloader get nuked. Windows 11 just installed a bunch of big updates without a problem. You’ll probably be fine.

First comment of the new calendar year! I’m officially immortalized.
- Comment on What does "Woke" mean to you? 3 weeks ago:
Very true. But the fact that it sounds black allows it to be used to efficiently encode white supremacy with plausible deniability. It’s probably why it’s still used by racist ghouls more than a decade after it was regularly used in the traditional sense. Like, Elon Musk starts ranting about the “woke mind virus” about six years after anyone was regularly using the term. And it really only returned to common usage for a few months.
- Comment on What does "Woke" mean to you? 3 weeks ago:
Hey now, don’t forget about the racists! It was adopted as a pejorative by the racist far-right because it “sounds” black.
- Comment on Is it even possible to drop 20 lbs in a month? Are there any diets for people who want to go to the extreme? Kind of like celebs do for roles? 4 weeks ago:
Exercise regimens and diets that actors follow are also usually not even intended to be sustainable. You alter your body for a few weeks for a role. It’d probably be a miserable existence maintaining it, and that’s what you’d have to do to maintain the results.
