And here I was, thinking my lemmy feed was the sign of me being hip and youthful…

Ah well, I guess it’s off to pixelfed for me.

Who is still using a 7+1 gun these days? Are we in the fucking pacific islands shooting colt .45s at the japanese? Get yourself an extended 300+1 drum mag that slots into your automatic glock you’ve taken from the secret service or something.

Tell me about it. Every time I get near the planes we use for skydiving, I can smell the damn difference.

I hate you in so many ways right now.

I’ve seen one in real life. Maybe they just carried a fake id card as a joke, but this was in a billing department so I’m assuming it was real.

Chaotic evil includes eating the heels of the bread first, because you don’t want that sweet extra protection layer from fungi.

This is the way. I rarely eat bread that isn’t at least warmed, so the only issue with the frozen bread is the effort it sometimes takes to separate slices.

Right? I love it when the internationale comes up after some chvrches, then is followed by some screamo. Drives anyone in the car with me insane, but I get pumped.

Instructions unclear, silicone now in bladder.
Also, it’s kinda ass to put that in someone else’s filter system, and you don’t want to be dealing with it in yours.
- Comment on NO TO AI 1 week ago:
Pfffft. Not far enough. You have to go back to 2015 to even find articles that aren’t shitty lists or repeating the ‘target’ word 15 times for SEO. AI has only sped up the ability to generate shit.
- Comment on Why Do Sovereign Citizens Keep Pursuing Unsuccessful Legal Defenses? 2 weeks ago:
The dedication of these individuals is noteworthy… What drives this persistence? Is it a deep-seated belief system that overrides rational analysis
It’s a lovely little combo of desperation and digging themselves into a hole. Most of the elements of sovereign citizens come from people who are not in good situations, as outlined by the canadian court’s very thorough opinion (which has already been linked twice in this thread, so I won’t bother it again). Once you’re in it, the same situation occurs that you can see with people in cults, mlm companies, or ponzi schemes. Maybe if you keep going, and pushing through the pain right now, you’ll get that mythical payoff. The alternative is to face the fact that you’ve likely ruined your life, rendering impossible whatever you hoped to achieve in the legal system in the first place.

Also, the worst bears can do is maul you to death on the spot. The worst men can do is rape, torture, and maim you for weeks before killing you.
Damn, all that fanfiction I read from brother bear is just crumbling…

- Comment on Keeping me up at night 2 weeks ago:
Breathing IS part of effective cpr. It is absolutely recommended. Compressions alone are better than nothing, which is why we had a brief period where that was taught for one-person-cpr (and was meant to make nonmedical personnel more likely to do SOMETHING), but anyone trained in cpr should absolutely be following the compression:breathing ratio taught in cpr classes.

- Comment on sus 2 weeks ago:
You know, I think that’s only true in teens and tv. I think that I’ve seen and had a fair few breakups in my time, and more than 80% kept the same friend group and are absolutely on board with remaining friends.
- Comment on I have a shamefully dark question for firefighters. I'm sorry but I'm just too curious to not ask... It's about the smell and how that affects life. 2 weeks ago:
The smell hasn’t ever affected my life. It was noticeable, but not really scarring. I always avoided looking at the burned bodies, because it wasn’t my job to pull them out. The visual was pretty bad.
I think my first (and worst) was when we had to wait about six hours for the medical examiners to come and get the body. The scent permeated everything, to the point where the much more experienced fella I was working with advised to take off my clothes in my garage/outside the house and rinse them there, and only later bring them directly to the washing machine and add boiling water to the tub as it filled so the water would be even hotter than just from the water heater.
After we had been there for six hours, we went to eat (it was night shift and about midnight, so we hadn’t eaten anything for probably 18+ hours) at a burger joint. I get my sandwich, tilt my head down to take a bite, and that compressed my uniform shirt. Well… that air inside the shirt was completely from the dead person air, and I got a face full of it. Had to blow the air away for a second before I could take that bite again. I do remember the sandwich being delicious.
I don’t think any of my family knows when I find/see/examine dead bodies. They don’t need to hear about it, and I eat when I’m hungry; no meal changes required. I probably wouldn’t sneak a piece of raw sausage as it’s ground after seeing brain matter, but I don’t usually eat raw meat anyway.
- Comment on Anon blames millennials 2 weeks ago:
To this day, I still wonder if the massager that my parents had, and LET US USE ON EACH OTHER, was actually marketed as a massager. It was basically the wand from the image above, but instead of the little egg/tooth vibrating thing on the end, it was like a massive UFO shape with different contours cut into rubber around the edge, and was big enough that it would be the appropriate size if we used it as a mace. Like, were they the typical ‘too innocent’ to think about it as a sex toy types, or was it really meant to be a massager?
Thoughts I shouldn’t have at night for $500, alex!

It feels like such a silly example now that I know the game, but tales of symphonia made me give up for about three years before coming back and beating it. There’s a section where you’re supposed to go to a specific city to progress, but there’s a semi-secret long way around that lets you experience a different character’s story early. Well, I somehow sucked at following directions and went the semi-secret way, and then couldn’t figure out how to get ANYWHERE that let you do anything. I wandered around the same continent for several months (playing a few hours a week) before moving on.

Jesus, the finding people thing was tough, but finding the quest item that I had already looted from a grave and either dropped or sold to a random merchant? Game ending, man.
