Whenever I come up with euphemisms like this, I’m openly honest about the reason and this has done me a lot of good.
“I call it this because people tend to react this way to the normal phrase, but that view isn’t accurate to my experience”

This was actually my biggest struggle when I tried to use edibles to quit. I would take an edible, sit for 20 minutes and think “what if I get the ball rolling with a dab?”
- Comment on Dinner bell is going off 6 days ago:
I tried to quit smoking by using edibles. I do think they’re just as addictive
- Comment on Working below minimum wage to save the planet 6 days ago:
Do you have pets? My first project will be cages for my electronics to keep my cats away from them, eventually I want to put together a hall tree. They’re like coat hangers with a seat and storage for your shoes, but I’ll also add a section for my work clothes

Why porn of all things?
It’s one of the few things that could get you in serious trouble at school
Question and answer in one. It’s hard to understand risk-seeking behavior as a risk-averse person, but that’s exactly why

You should check out the next 5 verses of that. James 5:1-6. It’s gotta be one of my favorite bits from the bible. I would put it here, but I kind of wonder if enough people start googling it if the powers that be will notice

Non judicial punishments and courts martials make up the american military legal system.
NJPs are basically your commanding officer saying “you did this wrong, you’re grounded. Half pay and stay in your room for a month”
Courts martials are an actual legal proceeding with a military judge who says “you did this wrong, straight to jail. Do not pass go, do not collect $200”
All this to say, yes. In fact, there are jobs in the military that can be legally punished with execution if they aren’t performed diligently even during peace times.

Depends how well you know the person. I know my work wife is coming even when people are yelling and machines are running around me, but if Ben doesn’t say something when he walks up behind me I’ll have no idea he’s there
- Comment on I miss when you could get a flagship phone that could fit in your hand 1 week ago:
I got the plus version of the same phone to get the bigger screen on the back.
It wasn’t worth it, I never use that screen and it just annoys me. I wish my phone was smaller.

Is activism an anything?
- Comment on Nazis don't rule 2 weeks ago:
yeah let’s all spread information about proactive activism from around the world, in the hopes it reaches the masses more effectively and influences more people, on c/shit posting
I agree :)

I’m not the one proclaiming what a word means, you are. I’m telling you, “this is how literally billions of people use this word every day despite the definition” and you’re saying “nuhuh use it this way cause this how the people I like use it” hence your Mastodon screenshot lol
I can’t honestly believe that you think peddling the authority’s definition, instead of using the word the way the common man does, is anything other than fueling those authoritarians to write those definitions however they see fit and forcing you to use words as they wish. Is your hand in the dictionary’s pockets?

You’re subverting the conversation by making points about my character rather than actually acknowledging the fact that you just have no counter argument to what was presented to you.
Ad hominem. Continue digging.

I do have exactly 2 passwords that I type, and 3 memorized.
1 for my password manager, 1 for my authenticator to get into my password manager (regularly typed)
My work password is memorized in case I have to sign in to an actual work computer

I promise your random Mastodon screenshot is not as definitive as millennia of language evolution. Also, you’re assuming I’m american when I could damn well be a European etymologist for all you know
- Comment on This is America 2 weeks ago:
Deceptive people can use words however they want!
So can you or I. At least a quarter billion people say “America” and mean “United States of America” every day, and at least a quarter billion people hear them say it and understand what they mean. Therefore, the meaning of that word has skewed.
If you picture an “American” in your mind I know damn well the first thing that pops into your head is not a resident of Brazil, and that is what language is actually about. Moving ideas, not definitions.
- Comment on This is America 2 weeks ago:
Ignorance this ignorance that.
Language evolves. The words we used to refer to locations don’t exactly match what they did 250 fucking years ago, boohoo.
Definitions come from how people use words, not the other way around.

Brother I can count to 100 on one hand if I keep switching the counting apparatus, but the point is that there are 12 distinct sections on the fingers.
Bonus points: this is part of the reason there was once a debate about swapping to base 12 instead of 10

I’ve been in the same boat, except that it was after a few months of being on migraine medication. Told my doc I was down to normal amounts of headaches and he said “are you sure? How many?” And then we had the exact same interaction lol
- Comment on Anon cheats through college 2 weeks ago:
My first attempt at coding with chatGPT was asking about saving information to a file with python. I wanted to know what libraries were available and the syntax to use them.
It gave me a three page write up about how to write a library myself, in python. Only it had an error on damn near every line, so I still had to go Google the actual libraries and their syntax and slosh through documentation
- Comment on Anon cheats through college 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, if you memorized the code and it’s functionality well enough to explain it in a way that successfully bullshit someone who can sight-read it… You know how that code works. You might need a linter, but you know how that code works and can probably at least fumble your way through a shitty 0.5v of it
