- Comment on What life hack helped you this year? 1 day ago:
Mine is rice cakes and seltzer. Fall asleep before hungry comes back.
- Comment on When you wake up, how long does it take for your brain's "OS" to "resume from hibernation"? 1 week ago:
5 minutes or so.
- Comment on Is it gay to have pleasurable sex with your wife? 2 weeks ago:
These guys just need to stick with toys and leave women out of it.
- Comment on Stop stressing my GPU and start hiring artists 2 weeks ago:
The initial impression of the new Arathi zone, before really getting close enough to see details was a “I can’t believe this is wow” moment on first impression. There are a couple areas like that where it really throws me. But in a way, yes, it looked so surprisingly good and a tad different.
- Comment on Stop stressing my GPU and start hiring artists 2 weeks ago:
Wow had been interesting lately. The last expansion I played, there were legitimately zones that I thought “I can’t believe this is wow” compared to the vanilla zones. You can still tell after a moment, but it is just a lot more detailed. I do love the point you make here. It reminded me of my first experience with uncanny valley in a game. I prefer not to have that experience tbh.
- Comment on How do you beat post-work floppiness? 2 weeks ago:
Second pot of coffee.
- Comment on #RatFuckTheTimes 3 weeks ago:
Idk about other people, but the recent op/ed on women ruining the workplace (they had to change the title 3 times) just being allowed in print by them certainly lessens my opinion of their institution.
- Comment on I swear half the posts on here are just slop now 3 weeks ago:
Liminal space vibes honestly.
- Comment on I swear half the posts on here are just slop now 3 weeks ago:
Am I? Oh no. Or the delve content? Cause it felt like it.
- Comment on I swear half the posts on here are just slop now 3 weeks ago:
Sometimes I say delve. Like “I hate delves” when I played world of Warcraft. Which I don’t anymore.
- Comment on Why not just move to a gated community 3 weeks ago:
It’s called response effort. The idea is that an action in particular is less likely to occur because it’s more effort than you’re motivated to spend in that moment.
Ever have a few things you could easily do, you’ve done them before, you’ll do them again another time, but that one time the extra steps make it not worth the effort?
It works a surprisingly large amount of the time especially where impulsive behavior is concerned.
Similar thing with locking our doors etc however there are additional motivational forces at play. Yeah they aren’t vaults, but if this one is locked and barricaded and it’ll take 10 minutes to negotiate vs the next one down being open…it’s an easy choice.
- Comment on Especially with their low pay 3 weeks ago:
“Are you okay?” “Yeah I only got hit with a chair.” An actual conversation from last week.
- Comment on Always question those who are the "teachers" 4 weeks ago:
Deleted my original response to this…post because it was somewhat emotional. Anyway, here goes.
It is fine and good to ask questions. Any decent teacher wants you to ask clarifying questions. Pretending otherwise is really dishonest.
Yea, you will find good and bad teachers. I suspect it’s much harder to find good teachers in areas where the profession has been vilified by people/posts like these, where books and ideas are being banned, incomes are hilariously low, and thoughts are being outright policed. In those places you’ve almost certainly seen a brain drain.
Ultimately a lot of us could be making money elsewhere, but we like what we do.
I would be more wary of someone vilifying the accumulation of knowledge and those who want to share it.
Boomer meme.
- Comment on Always question those who are the "teachers" 4 weeks ago:
I work in education. I could be off in private equity with my skills significantly making more. Too busy over here scamming I suppose.
- Comment on Shower. I hate the wet place 4 weeks ago:
Before sleeping. Except this can occur for hours.
Lately also while playing katamari.
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 1 month ago:
Replies have certainly taken on a more Reddit-like quality to some things. Like rude for the sake of being rude.
- Comment on Nobody ever remembers Gen X 1 month ago:
“Probably better to die than pretend like I can afford a house before I’m 90” or something. Not those exact words.
- Comment on Nobody ever remembers Gen X 1 month ago:
I have a reason I have to get up. I joked about being able to buy a house before I died. Not that I want to get up. But I’m obligated.
- Comment on Nobody ever remembers Gen X 1 month ago:
I made a millennial joke in front of my coworkers after a two month break. (They have said waaaay worse). Anyway they HR’d me and I almost got a free vacation to the grippy sock hotel. Now I keep my mouth shut. They’ll never see it coming! Assholes.
- Comment on I will burn this fucker to the ground... internally 1 month ago:
Happened to me the other day. Computer (work laptop) got stuck in a loop in one of our closed systems, and I didn’t have access to the thing that unlocks it and yes…I had to submit a ticket. Just put me in the ground now.
- Comment on It's about time we showed concern for the men 1 month ago:
Reminds me of that article about fellas suffering from endometriosis.
- Comment on Covers the bases 2 months ago:
Never been into muscles. I wanted a bear I could sleep on like a snorlax beanbag bed.
- Comment on Ibuprofen 2 months ago:
Well it’s Tylenol in the work bag because I can’t have too much of either in a single day. Also because I don’t need to have that one and a lunch (which I never get).
- Comment on what can I do at my workplace during downtime? 2 months ago:
Sometimes I play sudoku rather than doomscrolling.
- Comment on what does it mean being nice to your coworkers to you? 2 months ago:
Socializing is a part of being at work in person. Try engaging in reciprocal conversations. Ask about them instead. At least if you’re stuck, you aren’t talking about yourself.

If you leave that much space in Connecticut, two cars will fill the gap. I try though. I’ve been run off the highway by street racers also. My only comfort is dash cams so maybe it’ll be on video.
- Comment on What if a billionaire wants to help you? 3 months ago:
Just do an airdrop. Bag of cash on my porch is fine.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
It’s not absurd to say 20 year olds and 30 year olds are different in that way. From life experience to brain development, it’s a documented fact that older people predate these inexperienced individuals for a variety of reasons. Hence, if you look 20 and a 35 year old is interested in you, I advise you to be cautious. Now, some people will argue that once someone is legally an adult none of that matters. Sure, under the eyes of the law. But you’ve more than admitted here you’re looking for someone immature, that you are also immature. Be careful, older people giving you advice don’t do so to harm you or because they are ashamed they’ve aged. They have often been taken advantage of by older individuals.

It has nothing to do with being secure oand insecure. Predators target young, naive individuals. It’s a known fact. Silence enables predation. Your defensiveness is weird.
- Comment on They even got their own island 4 months ago:
Gross. Accurate. Took me way too long to understand why my friend’s dad was acting the way he was around 13-17. Decades later and it still sickens me.
