- Comment on Game developers desperate for you to join their Discord "server" 1 day ago:
I mod a server with 13k people, it’s really not that bad when you have channels, threads, and forums.
(Shout-out to DoMT for D&D)
- Comment on Why do we still joke about setting up old wooden guillotines? 5 days ago:
not that expensive, everything is wood
Oh how times have changed
- Comment on what's a good answer to placate the c-suite if you're accused of lacking motivation and being unfriendly? 6 days ago:
What are they gonna do, fire me?
Yes. Big corporations always have at least three guys with more motivation or fewer morals
- Comment on What would happen to the Earth if it got booped by a giant asteroid going super slowly? 2 weeks ago:
Gravity alone would start causing problems before it boops the planet
- Comment on Those who are against iOS and Apple in general, have you tried their devices lately? 2 weeks ago:
I’ve been using a whole host of Macs as my daily laptops for years and complain about the OS daily. It’s like a nanny, it’s fucking impossible to do anything on it.
- Comment on What happens if a world leader gets assassinated during a foreign visit by a *former* citizen of that leader's country? (Like: international relations wise) 2 weeks ago:
Spoiler: a band names themselves after you a hundred years later

All of the above. Every single group will twist it to suit their needs, but those who control the narrative will ultimately win out

- Comment on Why is insulting people for their state (Florida) ok, but not gender or race? 4 weeks ago:
Being proud of your state is a choice. If someone is proud of what Florida is doing, I am going to stay very very very far away from that person
- Comment on Why are a lot of statues vandalised with traffic cones in Scotland? 5 weeks ago:
That’s insulting to us witches
- Comment on The sheer amount of websites that are completely unusable without JavaScript 5 weeks ago:
Virtually any form validation besides the basics HTML provides is enough to require JS, and input validation (paired with server-side validation ofc) saves both user frustration and bandwidth
- Comment on What age gap is too big of an age gap if someone's in their early 30's? 1 month ago:
I think you stumbled upon the Republican manual for dating in the 21st century
- Comment on If you are paying to use "AI", who are you paying and what are your regular usecases? 1 month ago:
Just because you don’t know it doesn’t mean it isn’t a word. I use it at work daily.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 month ago:
It doesn’t sound like you’re surrounding yourself with the best people. They sound quite superficial
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 month ago:
And once you are 30+ it’s really really hard to form close friendships
I really don’t think age has much to do with it. I’m in my 30s and honestly find it easier since people are more adult at this age. People are less likely to play stupid games
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 month ago:
It makes me so angry with “the patriarchy”, because it isn’t just keeping women down, it’s also hurting and sometimes killing men.
I agree, I wish more men would realize that feminism also benefits men. Even things as small as being able to freely express yourself are hurt by the patriarchy
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 month ago:
I knew of one person here though we never actually met before moving. Also happened to end up meeting a long time internet friend.
Aside from those two, my partner and I searched for community events and went to quite a few. Met a lot of people there. Community events are honestly a fantastic jumping off point.
Also made one or two friends randomly just hanging at a park.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 1 month ago:
The sheer number of men who suddenly have no support in their life because their relationship has ended
Do men really not have any friends? I just moved to a new country and made like 5 close friends in the first few months, so that blows my mind in a sad way
- Comment on A real question about trans athletes and records 1 month ago:
I’ll add, as a trans person with the athleticism of a rock, about 75% of the sports debate is coming from transphobes. The proof of this is that they’re fighting to get trans people banned from darts and chess
- Comment on President Trump shows President Zelenskyy and President Macron his 4 More Years hats 1 month ago:
Adolf Hitler shows President Lebrun and PM Sikorski his collection of Nazi armbands (colorized)
- Comment on VW introduces monthly subscription to increase car power 1 month ago:
You’re not giving more choice if it relies on you purposefully taking away things. That’s called being predatory.
- Comment on California is debating whether or not to remove the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a politician was driving his car 1 month ago:
Sadly not every fight has a union available
- Comment on California is debating whether or not to remove the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a politician was driving his car 1 month ago:
They’re backed by billionaires and landlords
- Comment on California is debating whether or not to remove the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a politician was driving his car 1 month ago:
From my experience with a different fight in NY, these people don’t give a shit. They have no shame, they only care about their golden kickbacks.
- Comment on They made his car "cease & desist" 1 month ago:
It was praising the cyberfuck
- Comment on what's the best material for wiping out a cast iron skillet? 1 month ago:
Everyone has a different 8 step program to cleaning cast irons. I just scrape the fuck out of it with a chainmail “sponge” and water, maybe some coarse salt or s pinch of soap if it’s nasty. I dry it with a towel. I’ve had mine for yeaaaaars and it looks just fine.
- Comment on Should I unplug my smart tv from the internet? 2 months ago:
I still have a 720p dumb TV and I’m not getting rid of it. But my eyesight is terrible so 720p, 1080p, 4k don’t really make much difference to me.
- Comment on Charging to tour rental properties... 2 months ago:
If you have an agent that drives to the rental property, talks to you let you in walks around with you for 15 minutes maybe
Half the time they just send you a (usually wrong) door code or tell you to knock on the door and ask the existing tenants.
But also, it should never be on the renter (the customer) to pay a broker whose only job is to post the property on rental sites
- Comment on Developer wants to build 60 apartments and 24 parking spots. New York politician tells him to build less housing and more parking spots 2 months ago:
Speaking of Coney Island and corruption
There’s a shitty developer trying to bulldoze the heart of Coney Island (the amusement park, museum, theater, etc) to build a shitty casino. Literally no one in the community wants this and we’ve been fighting back, but the city doesn’t care about what the locals want. Article
Coney is my performance home so I’m trying to raise awareness
