Mine was not horrible, just exasperating. I warned him about every single thing that caused him issues, but he refused to listen, and that killed him.

That did not solve my boredom.
I made the cow walk upright, gave the cow a bardiche, made 665 more cows like that, and made them raid a village.
That was entertaining.

In person only a few times. For example, one of my relatives had a boyfriend who gave me a really creepy vibe.
He ended up being a controlling type with trust issues.
After the relative broke up with him, he appeared at the doorstep bleeding from cuts on his wrists.
Another relative had another biyfriend that gave me the vibe and he turned out to be a cheating bastards and a scammer who was only under control because of his mom, and when his mom died he went full unleashed. Now they are still in litigation over a piece of land he convinced the relative to buy, but now refuses to buy or sell, so the relative is stuck with that crap. The only reason to keep that is if he wants to get the whole terrain for free, or keep things like that to cause distress and harm my relative.On the other hand, one guy that I don’t like at all because he’s a very right-wing fascy type, doesn’t give me that vibe, and he’s been really good with another relative despite me not liking him and putting in my relative’s head all sorts of right-wing ideas I don’t like at all.
He may be wrong, but he isn’t ‘bad’, if you can get what I mean. - Comment on Anyone get this? 5 days ago:
It happened to me with many disgraced celebrities, but so far the worst one has been Leonardo DiCaprio. After The Beach, he gives me a horribly bad vibe. Strangely enough, it doesn’t happen with anything he did before The Beach.
Whatever horrible thing he did that stained his soul to such a degree, it must have happened between Celebrity and the end of filming The Beach. It’s as if he became 25, went to Thailand, and did something that turned him evil or something.

Yeah. The best possible outcome after a situation like this is the victim not being harmed in any way, so the perpetrator is denied the satisfaction of causing harm.

- Comment on 🐙 Octopus is Octopus 🐙 5 weeks ago:
Level 10: all forms are valid as long as enough people use them. The currently most used forms are octopuses and octopi, both valid, but octopi is malformed, so octopuses is preferred. Octopussses and octopii and rare variants of those. Also correct, but rarely used.
Octopodes is also correct, but considered pedantic. Level 11: Just use what you are used to. - Comment on Think Bold 1 month ago:
Not boars, tho.
Wolves prefer not to fuck with adult boars.
Even when European lions were still around, they’d rather go for something else over a boar. Even bear cubs or baby mammoths, with all the risks involved.
Without some metal animal like Komodo dragons, it falls to humans to keep them in check. - Comment on Teenis 1 month ago:

Have you wondered why it is that products often have very obvious warnings?
Not everyone out there is doing stupid things to try and get paid in a lawsuit, some are just that dumb.
Remember that fad with people wondering why mirrors ‘knew’ what was behind papers?
Some were just memeing, others were that scientifically illiterate. - Comment on Intellectual Debate 1 month ago:
Yeah. Everyone knows giraffe centaurs share the ears and ossicones of giraffes, but not their long necks and legs.
It’s more like the ancestors of giraffes that had not elongated yet. Oh, and pretty long tongues too. - Comment on Intellectual Debate 1 month ago:
The centaur diet consists mostly of meat, so they require fewer plants to survive. But plants are very good for their health, preferably root and leafy plants over grains, nuts, and fruits, but they can still enjoy any diet.
Centaurs used to prefer to eat only raw meat and alcohol, but after contact with humans they developed a cooking culture, preferring methods like spit roasts over methods like boiling, but they still enjoy a good stew.
Foods that are toxic or harmful to horses but not to humans are not a problem for centaurs, such as garlic, onions, avocado, chocolate, bread, dairy, and the brassica cultivars.The upper torsos of centaurs have secondary lungs and a second small heart that help support their brain and make it less likely that they’ll faint during heavy activity, with an esophagus leading to the stomach and a thick trachea leading to larger lungs, both on the second torso.
Their esophagus moves food faster than a human esophagus does, so eating something sharp that could scratch their esophagus is more harmful to them, so it’s more important for them to really chew their food well. Unlike horses, centaurs can vomit. Their upper torso has none of the other vital organs humans have in that area, leaving more room for muscles, which gives them their massive upper body strength. When a centaur appears to have a belly, there’s no interintestinal fat there; it’s all abdominal fat.
The lower torso has all other main vital organs, and a larger heart and lungs similar to those of horses, and the thicker trachea allows them to breathe faster. Centaurs often have large nostrils and a slightly elongated face to allow for faster airflow.
Their livers are more similar in function to those of humans and sledge dogs, giving them high endurance. They can run without rest far longer than any other creatures they know.
Their lymphatic and blood system, on the other hand, is more similar to that of horses.
Unlike humans, centaurs do not lose muscle mass due to lack of activity, mostly due to illness or lack of nutrition.There are some variations depending on what ‘taur’ is their lower body, but these are the common traits shared among all tauric species.

Look at all those distractions about nothing and lies. Everyone knows the real reason any mascot is ever made sexless or gender neutral is to save on materials, so merchandising is cheaper.

Everything I give you

Forever trusting who we are

If an advanced civilization in the future figures out a way to scan the minds of all sentient beings and put them in an afterlife simulation, then it’ll probably work like The Good Place after they fixed the issues with the system, and this guy would absolutely still be stuck in the purgatories, not yet a better person.
- Comment on "Being vegan is unnatural" 2 months ago:
If vegans really cared about these things more than keeping the moral high ground, they’d be focusing on practical solutions like making lab-grown meat and plant-based substitutes so tasty and affordable that corporations are the ones that start pushing for them, so they can’t stop spending on costly cattle.
