LOL thank you!

Can someone please explain who this lady is? I’ve seen her in other memes, they all have this “documentary host/ journalist” style. I presume she must be some well known journalist or news anchor?

Are the toxins in the saliva a product of bacteria (as it happens with komodo dragons) or do the mammals themselves produce the toxins?

No

No.
It really depends for what and who’s watching. I’ll prefer reading instructions to watching a video a hundred times, but I’ll prefer a video over a text for entertainment more frequently though.

There’s a chemical brothers song that, while not addressing your question straightforwardly, proves that salmon can have meaningful social interactions with humans. I think.

Is it really an addiction? What happens to you if you don’t have any money to spend on this? Or, say, for some reason there are no more gambling opportunities or sex workers in your area?

Problem is only you can redeem yourself. This feels a bit pointless to me, in particular since it appears you’re unable to draw boundaries, which means you are leaving yourself open to be taken advantage of, which in turn just perpetuates unfairness.
6 year old you isn’t you anymore. I don’t know what you did, maybe you killed someone, but my point still stands all the same.

Calm down. Have a cup of tea. There’s this type I recommend, I think you’ll love, it’s called Earl Grey

Why all those noes? What’s wrong?
- Comment on Can you read and understand this passage? 1 week ago:
No… I read your quote straight through and without issues. I had to re-read many of the sentences in OP’s quote and put effort to make sense out of them. Your quote feels normal, with flourishes, but normal. OP’s quote doesn’t. For me there is no comparison.

I would argue Sherlock Holmes, Verne, and Monte Cristo (which I really like) read nothing like the slob OP posted. (I’ve never read Oliver Twist though).
- Comment on Can you read and understand this passage? 1 week ago:
I started reading, I drifted away at about the mud part so I restarted. This is really not my cuppa tea when it comes to text. On the second run I did better but no, I didn’t manage to visualize everything. The Megalosaurus sentence doesn’t make much sense to me. The text is convoluted, boring, and depressing but yes I guess I see the shitty street, the animals, the people -a crowd-, the miserable weather.
I’m aware of more information I’m not really processing but I’m just too annoyed at the text to apply the necessary brainpower required to digest it. It’s almost 2 AM and I’m tired.
Then I make it to the end and realize it’s Dickens, and that explains everything. I never liked his writing. Good night.
- Comment on Is it normal for people to ask where you are from online? 1 week ago:
It’s a reasonable question but it’s unreasonable to insist without providing a reason.
- Comment on Games on my PC start stuttering pretty badly when they aren't the active window for a while. Have to close the game and restart to resolve the stuttering issue. What exactly is causing this? 2 weeks ago:
Look I’m not tech savvy at all, but I have been using windows for a very long time. Take the following with a grain of salt. Here’s my two pennies:
1: Windows has a tendency to run background processes as soon as it detects you are idle, and once those processes start they don’t stop cleanly if you resume activity. I find they will stop for good only if I do something that forces clearing RAM to start a RAM intensive process, such as restarting a game in your case.
2: The best deterrent to windows doing this shit in the background is to purge as much bloat as you can, and turn your wifi off if you are not using it. Turn auto updates off (or delay as much as possible). My laptop behaves pretty well on idle if it’s offline.

Oh sick I didn’t know it had the Shivering Isles. It used to be my favorite, I think out of TES it’s my favorite environment setting so far.
- 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. 3 weeks ago:
I’m far from being a firefighter and I’ve never encountered a decomposing human body. I just want to point out that the smell of pork most humans like, is the smell of certain pork parts only and under controlled temperatures.
In other words, if you were to throw a pork whole into a fire, the smell would be different from that of ribs on a bbq. You would be burning its fur, skin, internal organs, blood and excrement along with the muscle and fat, and I mean burning, not cooking, which also makes a difference.

There isn’t a steel supply tap to every house is it? I don’t think I’ve had to replace or buy any steel pieces over the last two months or so. Different story with water.

You have some really good answers. Just remember,
INSECT REPELLENT.
That’s what you need. People tend to forget about ticks, mosquitoes, horseflies and whatnot. And if you’re in Australia, add leeches to the list. They can be vicious and ruin your experience if you go unprepared.

Love Beetoota, always helping me keep up with the current affairs
- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
Considering all the replies you’ve had until now from different users, asking this almost feels like sealioning.

I used to be pretty neutral about ticks and leeches. Then I had the privilege of becoming their target and now both stir as much hate from me as fleas and roaches do.
