  Yeah, the whole experience is a relatively traumatic one, the idea of bringing metal implements to bear probably means the alternative is worse, but part of expertise is in weighing options and risks.

  As an aside, I believe Sylvester Stallone’s speech is due to nerve damage from a forceps incident at birth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why are dads like this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Even their necks are wild.

  The writer and ex-doctor Adam Kay wrote in his book “This is Going to Hurt”, about his time in the maternity ward of an NHS hospital in the 2000s, that he would find it funny, visiting friends and their new kids and his friends reminding him to support the neck and stuff, when in the past he has had forceps around the head of a child and has leaned back with his full weight trying to assist in the removal of a child trapped in the birth canal, and both baby and mother coming out of it completely fine.

  As a brit, I imagine it is to conjure up the idea of the village fair. Where often times you’ll have cake and vegetable judging taking place in tents about the place.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨do you know?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I never thought my county would appear on lemmy.

  Look at their little faces though!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced: Official Game Overview Trailer⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You can buy the GTA3 Trilogy still on the Rockstar website. I dunno if its missing music from the original release like I heard several years ago, but im playing through old San Andreas now. You just can’t get it on steam.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Judging by the Arthur Morgan technique, you hold it by the two hind legs, in one hand, and just grab four fingers-worth of it’s arsehole and yank violently down towards the head.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I used to be a fan 🤦‍♂️⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Never offered real fixes for the problems but made you laugh at the fucking state of things.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Shart of The Deal⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Curious…

  Girls that put their hand in their pants and then put their fingers in your mouth; Saint Peter can’t even look them in the eye as he opens the gate. 😳

  A line of ground pepper.

  It’s a good thing he can’t go outside then.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I left YouTube two years ago. Time to come back. [Tom Scott; 1:40]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m excited to see what he found to do in the three major counties of my life.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I left YouTube two years ago. Time to come back. [Tom Scott; 1:40]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The best guess would be Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland next.
  Or at least I would hope.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘It beggars belief’: MoD sources warn Palantir’s role at heart of government is threat to UK’s security⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Would certainly give the government a reason to look for an out, if they ever got rid of Starmer.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨war with Iran has been delayed⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d say it would be a MARPOP violation, but I dunno if military vessels have exceptions or something wild like that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I have a rasberry pi 5 collecting dust, what are some neat useful things i can do with it?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Thank you so much for getting back to me with such a trove. I really appreciate it. I never know where to start looking for certain topics and terms.

  When you know nothing, you dont know what you dont know.

  The raisins ride a loose shotgun to the power of cinnamon and salted butter.

  As long as its just us. It throws me through a loop when theres no bagels left at the shop :[

  Takes out duct tape and does a tonsure wrap of tape around their head and ears

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨deez nutz save lives⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah but the hairs ruin your razor, shaving the puncture site.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My father the tween literary critic⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I remember one holiday with my mum and dad in a cottage in the hills. They had a DVD player and dvds on the shelf in the little living room We put Gone Girl on because it was relatively recent and I’d heard of it, and about 10 minutes in my dad was like “oh wait, I’ve read this book…it’s shite.”

  I insisted we watch the whole thing because I cant stand watching a bit of something I find I dont like, voice my opinion on it, and then get told that if I didn’t watch 'til the end, then how can I know?

  Anyway, he was correct.

  “Water can only fly when its a gas!!!” Words from losers that have never looked at the sky.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The sun is a deadly laser...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, sorry. Its difference in temperature. I got delta-T in my head and blinkered in on either making a ‘triangle’ to denote delta or just write it out, instead of just saying temperature difference.

  Apologies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The sun is a deadly laser...⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I know its memes, but the astronaut tim peake discussed the space suits on No Such Thing As A Fish where he said that the whole get-up is like 16+ layers thick, and the only heating inside is for your fingertips, so you dont lose fine motor function. He said you can be sitting working on a panel outside the station, with one hand facing the sun and one hand facing the shade, and the delta-T of your two hands could be something like 500°C.

  Maaaaadness! (It’s been a while since I listened to this episode, my memory of numbers could be skewed.)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A new homelessness law in Wales is being called 'world-leading'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is excellent. Thank you very much. Im going to take the points on the crisis page onboard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I have a rasberry pi 5 collecting dust, what are some neat useful things i can do with it?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  What do these things mean?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A new homelessness law in Wales is being called 'world-leading'⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Your sister sounds pretty incredible.

  I never feel as though I’d know what to do or say, or would be able to even help in the first place.

  Kudos to the pair of you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨bit rude, innit?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes! Exactly this. Hahahaaaaaa. Whadda buncha shites.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨bit rude, innit?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is a whole sub-genre in British tabloids. Absolute melts pointing at things with a sad or annoyed face.

  Cannot for the life of me remember the collective term for them.
