  There’s plenty of room for activities! Like… sledding.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meanwhile in America⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It may be counterintuitive, but a bin is more likely to be down the street, than in the neighbor’s yard. Because the wind will blow the bin along the open street more easily than it will force it up a curb or driveway.

  I’ve found my bin halfway down the street several times here in NM. I’ve never had it end up in the neighbor’s yard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨So glad I suck dick⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Imma try.

  <Ahem>

  Bitch.

  Cool.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thanks I hate it⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re trolling. It’s not just that they’re not paid enough to care, it’s that they’re so criminally underpaid, they’ve lost respect for everyone. If they were happy at their work, paid well, had benefits, and paid time off, and were treated well, they’d never consider trolling like this. We’d all feel like part of a community that respected and valued our input, and we’d all treat each other much better.

  It’s a class war, and every year there’s less for us to share because the filthy rich refuse to share, and cannot be satisfied.

  Or, he could repeat things six times in the same amount of time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨White Balance is Broken⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Ugh. Maybe if the maker didn’t talk so fast, he wouldn’t need to repeat the same thing FOUR times to fill the “Minute Physics” video, that’s 8 minutes long.

  Just a thought.

  (No, I don’t care that he has ~6 million subscribers.)

  Gulf of Alaska

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It would get old fast⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  No one outside of high school has six friends.

  No one makes friends with six random neighbors. And certainly they don’t all consider each other friends.

  There’s a reason this is called a “dream”.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It would get old fast⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Right. “Comprehend” is the wrong word, it should have been they can’t imagine ever having secured housing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is dehydrated⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Anon WAS dehydrated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Count yourself lucky⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe they should gather in the winter, in the North.

  Or walk-in freezers, IDK.

  Wait, do furries gather in walk-in freezers? That would explain all the hair in Applebee’s food.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Count yourself lucky⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  We don’t even know how to grow our own food anymore. We’re all cooked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hope you like math⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  fan-fucking-tastic

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you reconcile staying sane while keeping yourself up-to-date with the news?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have hope that enough of the people who voted for Trump now see they were duped and that the mid-terms will be a rout for the Rs. Not a lot of hope, but hope.

  However, I don’t want to think too hard about what they will try to do if that comes to pass.

  Under the shirt in 3, 2, 1…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨New scrubbing robot could contribute to automation of household chores⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  This is stupid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is Illiterate⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If someone is trying to convey important information, I’d rather get an email, than a text. And, I’d rather get a text than a voice call.

  Writing requires thought to form sentence that make sense. And, forces the person to slow down a bit and gives them time to think about what they are staying. Also, they at least have the opportunity to read before they send, to check if they left anything out. Finally, and this is especially important in business, we have a “paper trail” that can be referred back to.

  It took me years to stop the owner of the business I worked for to stop giving me instructions verbally. He did end-runs around shop policy to get his own pet projects prioritized. Policies that he put into place. Why do business owners sabotage their own businesses?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Well, I mean they probably... Maybe they...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They used it as a pestle.

  To make aphrodisiacs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Waffles shaped like genitals⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Can I offer you a nice waffle in this trying time?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It’s the little things⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Only Rick Sanchez can make a floor that level, and then only 1 square meter.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Perspective⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  No, the light could still be above the mattress on the ceiling at the bottom of the stairwell. This proves nothing.

  But, the wear on the carpet indicates to me that those are the treads, so this is taken from the top of the stairs looking down. Also, not mentioned elsewhere, there is usually a nose on the treads and the carpet would follow the nose, which can’t be seen from above.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Have a good trip⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That astronaut lady just wore a diaper.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Jupiter⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  College rhymes with knowledge.

  Stupider rhymes with Jupiter.

  You know it’s a rhyme, so you got that part.

  It’s an insult chant school girls use against boys. There’s nothing more to it than that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Duke University lost NIH grants because they used the prefix "trans" in reference to disease transmission, transgenic genetic material, translational studies and signal transduction⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s how fucking stupid they who are enforcing this garbage are. Word processors have for decades allowed searching for “whole words only”, which would stop these words from being flagged. The tech exists, they’re just too stupid and lazy to implement it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You got it, buddy⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  "Labia? I don’t think that section of the sky is visible this time of year. Or, maybe it’s behind the full moon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon finds love⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That last sentence kills me. “The big, dumb corporation was in our bedroom, holding a gun to our head! They made us bang!”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is is bed with Google now, in a worse, more OS-integrated way than Mozilla was. This timeline sucks.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re the employee? Why would it matter to you what they use? Do your job, go home.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nexus Mods Sale Sparks Concern in Modding Community⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  They had a good run. It was fun while it lasted.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spicy food never affects my gut and everyone thinks it's really weird. How unusual is this and what could be happening to explain why spicy food doesn't affect me?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Same for me. As long as I don’t eat it. If I eat it, then hoooo-boy!
