My initial dental work was some 30 years ago so they didn’t have the nice strong resin fillings of today. Shit happens. I’ll have dentures or implants eventually.

This happened to me in the USA when I was 8-10 years old. It was a state sponsored program for low income families. They hit me with like 6 fillings I bet I didn’t need. They went to my school and parents gave permission but weren’t present so they just did what they wanted.
So now I require confirmation for all work done, x-rays and second opinions.
The fillings needed replacing over time and eventually got 5 crowns now…

With any luck it would be Alien archeologists that want to observe the rare primitivities and not intervene.
The prime directive.

What if they need water?
Drain our oceans and fuck up our ecosystems and weather balance.
The ocean is earths heatsink. Imagen extreme temperature changes across the planet. All life as we know it could end.
For fun I asked AI…
what are the consequenses of aliens stealing half of our ocean water?
Oh, what a fascinating (and somewhat alarming) scenario! Let’s imagine it, shall we?
Ecological Impact:
-
Marine Life: If half of our ocean water vanished, marine ecosystems would be devastated. Many species of fish, coral, and other marine life would struggle to survive in the drastically altered environment. The reduction in available water would likely cause mass extinctions.
-
Weather Patterns: The oceans play a crucial role in regulating Earth’s climate. With significantly less water, we would see dramatic changes in weather patterns. Areas that depend on the ocean for moisture might experience severe droughts, while others could face unpredictable storms.
Human Impact:
-
Food Supply: Many communities around the world rely on the ocean for their primary food source. The loss of half the ocean would lead to a sharp decline in fish and other seafood, causing food shortages and affecting the global food supply chain.
-
Economic Impact: Industries such as fishing, tourism, and shipping would face catastrophic losses. Coastal communities that depend on these industries would suffer economically.
Environmental Impact:
-
Sea Level: If aliens took half of the ocean water away, sea levels would drop drastically. While this might seem like a good thing for areas currently threatened by rising sea levels, it would expose vast areas of the seabed, creating new environmental challenges.
-
Temperature Regulation: Oceans act as a giant heat sink, absorbing and distributing heat around the planet. Without this balance, we could see more extreme temperature fluctuations and accelerated climate change.
Global Panic:
-
Geopolitical Tensions: Countries might blame one another for not preventing the alien intervention, leading to international conflicts.
-
Technological and Scientific Response: There would be a global race to develop technologies to either recover the lost water or adapt to the new reality.
In summary, if aliens stole half of our ocean water, the consequences would be catastrophic, impacting every aspect of life on Earth. Now, let’s hope this remains in the realm of science fiction! 😊 What sparked your curiosity about this scenario?

That’s what happens when you crowd source from forums and social I guess.

No idea. I used it to translate stuff uncensored

Yep. I’m thinking of the archaic forced marriage. Women being property.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
This sounds less like a classical arranged marriage and more like parents introducing their kids to each other.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Congratulations. Glad it’s working out for you.

Kamala lost because the Dems didn’t show up. Again. Look at the number of votes for 2020 vs 2024. All those “undecided” and “obstainers” that didn’t just stay home. They didn’t bother doing a mail in.

No I mean take a regular shower and let her stand behind you and hold your wee wee while you pee pee.
… Didn’t think I needed to spell it out.

Yeah the shower is a much easier solution

I went to a restaurant that had this as a gimmick. They were clearly having fun with it though. Rude words with fun delivery.
I think it was dicks last resort.

Not leaking but clearly a pack of meat that has moisture on it.
- Comment on Ok boomer 3 months ago:
I always prefer self checkout because too many people suck at bagging.
Don’t put a leaking pack of meat with my deli you dumb shit. All while I see people pushing full carts that have meat touching produce…
The only place I trust to bag for me is Trader Joe’s. Tetris masters over there.
