And also the brain damage.
- Comment on Say hi to the machine elves for me 2 days ago:
Of course it’s all in your head. And as far as you know, so is everything else.

The taste is awful qut you do get to see God so eh
- Comment on Is "Squid Baby" from SpongeBob really a fetish episode? 2 days ago:
Cartoons made for children do not have fetish episodes. Some deeply troubled people will sexualize anything, however.

We literally burn sugar as fuel. Fires are just fast oxidation.

A lot of people go to nude beaches often and don’t have that problem. Did you use sunscreen?
- Comment on Nutritional Hexes 4 days ago:
Getting the numbers in practice can be difficult but that’s not the same as saying that CI/CO is bullshit, as many people do sho don’t understand that it’s simple thermodynamics. If your fire isn’t producing enough heat, you add more wood. You don’t start to doubt that burning is exothermic.

I loved it when Gwyneth Paltrow said she drinks alkaline water for the health benefits… with a slice of lemon.
- Comment on Why do pot or other drug dealers "lace" their drugs knowing full well it will pretty much kill their customer base and rep? Is this not like a retail store telling customers everyday FUCK YOU and hope 1 week ago:
-
sometimes they just add too much by mistake. They don’t want to kill their customers but they don’t know enough to safely spike their product every time, partially because:
-
different people react to the same drugs dfferently too. A fentanyl dose that won’t harm Jack at all can be deadly for Jill, even if all the other variables like what it’s mixed with and in whah ratio are the same.

- Comment on It turns out that Juggalo makeup blocks facial recognition technology 2 weeks ago:
Speaking as someone who isn’t a juggalo, it’s clear that the subculture represents a lot more people than just the ones who identify with it. Like with Punk, a lot of outsiders don’t look past the aesthetic to realize that they’re trying to convey an important social message and be a voice for disenfranchised groups. They aren’t just people in clown make-up, they’re people who were fucked over by society and this is the outlet they found. Sadly it’s easier to laugh at memes about magnets than to confront their reality.
I’d include the rap subculture as well but sadly their message became diluted when they achieved mainstream success and were co-opted by the marketing amd propaganda machine as another tool to perpetuate the Spectacle.
- Comment on How to install Windows on your Steam Deck 2 weeks ago:
From the author of “how to give yourself a ghost pepper enema” and " how to lose the trust of your loved ones".
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Native Portuguese and English, fluent Spanish, absolutely terrible German, and the one semester of French I took just made me determined to never speak it. “Quatre-vingt-douze” isn’t a number, it’s an algebra problem.
- Comment on Nvidia Announces DLSS 5, and it adds... An AI slop filter over your game 2 weeks ago:
Isn’t Microsoft working on exactly that?

Nslopia.
- Comment on Why is the USA attacking Iran? 4 weeks ago:
It answers the title, says why now, and refers to the POTUS and his “tendency” to act on personal rather than national interest. I don’t think it was that unhelpful, though of course it’s a simplification.
- Comment on Why is the USA attacking Iran? 4 weeks ago:
To distract from the Epstein files and make Trump’s handlers money on oil.
- Comment on Never understood this. If something foreign enters you your white blood cells go after it like a dog in heat, Would this not mean that our cells are smart enough to discern bad from good? 5 weeks ago:
How do you explain autoimmune diseases then?
- Comment on What television series in your opinion had very good writing and character depth? 1 month ago:
The Good Place. It starts off deceptively shallow but by the end it became one of my favorite shows of all time.
Dark. The constant time travel makes it hard to keep track of what’s going on a lot of the time but if you can manage, it’s very rewarding. Great character development. Not the best ending, but good enough.
Better Call Saul and Breaking Bad have some poorly written characters but the well-written ones are very well-written.
I didn’t include any shows based on books because I felt that would go against the scope of your question.
- Comment on Anon gets nostalgic 2 months ago:
Everyone is hip according to themselves. Well, everyone above a certain level of self-esteem.
- Comment on if portals are invented, will I be able to eat out myself? 2 months ago:
It was a facetious comment but why should orientation matter? Have you never eaten anyone out or been eaten out from a creative position?
- Comment on if portals are invented, will I be able to eat out myself? 2 months ago:
You’re not thinking with Portals
- Comment on It was a surprise for sure 2 months ago:
Is that a three-legged set of pants or is he just really flexible?
- Comment on Took you a while... 2 months ago:
You know you can just keep what you already have on Steam and just buy wherever else from now on, right? It’s trivial and the idea that you need all your games to be on the same platform even if it means rebuying hundreds of them is hilariously stupid.
Lutris can connect to Steam, GOG, Epic and Humble Bundle among others, and you can access everything in one place if that’s important to you.

As a nonbinary, it’s definitely penis.
- Comment on I don't understand how Trump gets away with all his senial BS. How come everyone is telling him to piss off or use the constitution to shut him the hell up? 2 months ago:
And 7. They’re fuckijg immature assholes (in both senses)

You’re not alone. This is pretty much a universal struggle.

Oh, that’s fair.

Just because you don’t like an answer doesn’t mean it wasn’t given. And it’s quite obvious that the only answer you’re willing to accept is “capitalism is the only economic system that can allow us to not live as animals”, even though that’s demonstrably false, so I don’t know why you want people to do your research for you other than ego and immaturity.

Simply create a system where it is impossible for a singoe person or faction to have enough power to do this kind of harm, and be constantly vigilant against any erosion of the safeguards.
It’s extremely simple when said in this way, but it’s also nearly impossible in practice.
