I never realized that when I was thrown into a locker, it was actually a giant allegory for a ‘gathering the group’ montage.

Nah, mickey’s old hornypostings were characterized by him wanting to make up a story about something. It’s too bad we lost nsfw, it was a good archive of the idiocy. Poorly written, rambling sex stories in reply to a poorly written, 12 year old’s question about sex.

Just compromise and play the games that were out at that time. Hardware/system is user choice ;)

(Yes, I add tags to clothing that doesn’t have them, except socks)
You monster.
…
but you’re right. My shirts that have the tag printed on are nearly impossible to put on without at least one ‘oops it’s backwards’ event a week.

Pretty sure the vore folks encapsulate them all in one spot.
- Comment on "So what was your veterinary dissertation on?" 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, it was always weird when the one stallion in the stable started doing it. I’m sure it’s some sort of nightmare (and someone’s fetish) scenario to be locked within scores of other horses, most of which are mares, and not be able to have sex. And, yeah, the owner of the stallion was definitely a strange one, even compared to all the horse girls.
- Comment on Littering 🚯 2 weeks ago:
They’ve been trying. I occasionally glance through the nra’s magazine because a family member is lust-addicted to the stories of people shooting others to defend themselves, and there have been little articles in their ‘defending gun rights’ section about lead bullet bans for at least a decade now. The nra and other gun lobbies have a lot of money to throw at the issue, and have actually overturned some of the bans, I believe.
- Comment on POV: You walked into a corporate meeting of people who make 10x your salary 2 weeks ago:
I had a family member in that ‘arena.’ The worst part of it is, the idiocy doesn’t end. He’s years out of it, retired, fat, and happy, and still talks like he’s trying to impress a thesaurus lusting dictionary.
- Comment on It should be a strict rule 2 weeks ago:
I have a neighbor who thinks a golf course is better than a park. I just want to shake folks sometimes. How is a hellscape of a solitary grass better than a place where you could get all sorts of plants going? One with hiking paths for everyone, and all sorts of goodies like gazebos, meadows, benches…

- Comment on Annon punches a Nazi 3 weeks ago:
If they would have been, or are today, then sure. If they aren’t, then yeah, let’s explore other ways to kill off nazis than punching them publicly on a video they are recording.
- Comment on Annon punches a Nazi 3 weeks ago:
Ultimately, it’s all a wash. The nazis we are punching would say their targets broke the social contract first. Tolerance should be an aspect of your morality, not the whole thing (and hopefully, that being said, your morality says punching nazis is okay).
- Comment on Anon joins the army 5 weeks ago:
I didn’t realize you could get out of the army without your wife knowing. Maybe that’s why it was gf at the beginning and suddenly switched at the end, so you don’t realize the incongruity.
- Comment on Why is Valve being sued for almost $900 million, but Epic Games wasn't sued when they bought Rocket League and Fall Guys to remove them from steam? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah, it’s no longer for sale. If you bought it before it was delisted, you can still download/play it through steam. What is fucking atrocious is that I had to go and make an account with epic to play. Well, they can spam and sell my ‘nannerbanner’sfakeemailforepiccunts@proton.me’ all they want. Fucking cunts. .

Krebs was easy. The pentose shunt pathway and (for me, others said it was easy :'() the urea cycle were nightmares. But I can still draw the phenylalanine -> epinephrine diagram!
- Comment on Just vibing 5 weeks ago:
There’s a neat video by smarter everyday (and a bunch of back and forths among youtubers, including electroboom) where they show it and argue about it, but the power is actually transmitted through the electrical fields ‘outside’ of the wires.
Imagine a loop of electrical wire that is 300,000km long. Your switch is at point A, and the light bulb is at point b, halfway along the wire. If the energy truly ‘propagated down the line’ it would take half of a second for the light bulb to turn on when you flipped your switch to complete the circuit. Interestingly, if you make the loop so that points A and b are closer than the lines maximum possibility (or, in other words if you imagine the loop as a 0, the points are at the left and right of the 0 instead of the top and bottom), then the light bulb turns on based on how far apart the points are, not the distance of electrical line between them.

flappy bird? Pssh, look at you modern gamers and your graphics. I play missile on a TI-83, like god intended.
- Comment on Is it possible to reverse pit a copcar before they pit you? Like if you know a cop is going to pit you on their right side, can you use your left back end to hit them first? 1 month ago:
The reason the PIT maneuver works is physics. Cars are typically heavier on the front end, steer from the front, drive from the rear, and the tires are ‘stationary’ in reference to the ground so they are using the coefficient of static friction rather than the coefficient of kinetic friction (an aside, if you’re trying to use a pickup line on an engineer, hit them with the 'ole ‘Is there ever a case where the coefficient of kinetic friction is greater than that of static friction? No? Then the hardest part of this conversation is over, eh?’).
What that means is everything is in favor of the car using its front end to push the rear end to the side. The front tires are turned in the direction of travel, so they have the static friction still going in a manner less likely to lose it. The rear tires will lose the higher traction from the static friction and suddenly be ‘drifting’ as they switch to the friction forces using the kinetic friction coefficient, whereas even if the front tires were to momentarily lose traction, they wouldn’t have the driving force of the engine keeping them in the lower friction state. The heavier weight from the front is more likely to be able to push the lighter rear.
There is also another factor, slightly less important to the pit maneuver itself (the tactic) and more along the lines of the overall goals of the chasers and the runners (the strategy)… and as a matter of fact, why cops don’t typically use the pit maneuver much anymore. Even with the specialized bumpers they once had, damage to the cop’s car is pretty typical. Damage to the fleeing car is very likely, and damage to people that might be around is common. Cops nowadays are pretty happy to just chase you, keeping a moderate distance, until you make the mistake and wreck or give up, either on the car and try to flee on foot, or by heading towards what you think is a ‘safe’ spot. In fact, if they get a helicopter up, you might not even see the cops anymore as they maintain a distance back and turn off lights. That one is pretty rare, but it occasionally happens, and more often than a pit maneuver. Anyway. If you tried to ‘reverse pit’ them, you’d be slowly taking your one advantage away. They have a lot more cars than you. They can afford to take a little damage if it means slowing you down if you want to start playing the nascar bump game.

Mostly normal. There is some good research and theory about the topic out there. They refer to the trait as ‘self-monitoring’ and rank people as high or low in the trait. High self-monitors are “alert to social cues that suggest what they should do, and they are ready, willing, and able to tailor their behavior to fit in… low self-monitors are both less attentive to social norms and less flexible.”
High self monitors are activity specialists, who have friends for specific things, like a “ballet friend” or “tennis buddy,” and they avoid disputable topics.
There are a few trends that can be seen, with the high self-monitors having higher intimacy in relationships to start, but the relationships are less committed and shorter.
Some papers to look at: Nezlek & Leary, 2002; Fuglestad & Snyder, 2009; Leone & Hawkins, 2006; Snyder & Simpson, 1984; Wright et al., 2007). Quotes from Miller, 2012

I negotiate boundaries with people individually.
Yeah, I think you nailed it there. I am perfectly happy talking about certain parts of my life with certain individuals, while completely walling off those parts with others.

Just let me be clear, it incenses me just as much as you, lol, but here’s the thing, run on sentences are much worse for us in the interim and we need to circle back around so that that issue becomes a lesser thing, lest we forget the true horrors of english perpetuating themselves through a normalization of nominalization that makes a trivialization of our original lines in the sand aaaaand now I’m just getting into the weeds with my niche micro-interests and brought in too many limes.

- Comment on Zootopia 1 month ago:
Because selling sex is much more about the teasing than the actual presentation. I’m convinced that the reason we don’t have nude models selling you stuff on billboards is that the lingerie/just-before-the-bedroom clothes are more effective, so advertising companies don’t care to get case law or actual legislation allowing nude advertisements.

Are they the ‘touch the handle, gentle arc across’ kind, or the ‘sensor begins smooth laminar flow stream into bottle’ kind? Because the first should be banned, ugh (I mean, not really, I still use the ones at the park), and the second is amazing.
