Seems like, somehow, people have spent a lot of time thinking about Ariel’s tits. Perhaps science can tell us one day why.

There’s an entire generation of people now alive that won’t have any understanding of this meme… or Miss Cleo or a lot of other “part of how my brain structure works now” shit

This stuff used to bother me but then I observed nature and its cruel rules for long enough, and I realized that suffering is one of the few constants in life, one of the guarantees. Wasps that paralyze spiders for months so they can be eaten alive by their offspring, bird species where most chicks are left to stave to death, etc… yeah nature is just as cruel as humans can be, but at a much larger scale in perpetuity, and we’re a lot more efficient at turning that suffering into greater good that lessens the suffering of others in perpetuity. So, while I don’t condone or even like to think about baby monkey experiments, I will not bat an eye at lab mice being given Parkinson’s so we can observe and seek answers and cures.

You don’t want to discover you wanted to layer the queef track AFTER the artist has left the studio.

You can certainly compile and run your own apps, you need to pay the developer fee if you want to distribute the software to other people’s Macs or iOS, or use advanced features like iCloud integration or push messages.

- Comment on Why do I almost never see people flying drones? 3 weeks ago:
My inlaws do a big 4th of July fireworks show, for many years a drone would come hover 100ft above us, recording it. We never found out who it was. Fairly creepy actually.
I have a drone and played with it a fair amount, drove it around my neighborhood, well beyond the “line of sight” requirement. I managed to hit trees several times because it doesn’t have fancy avoidance features. Hard to tell from the single camera when you’re rising up or backing into a tree branch.
Eventually I got bored tho. I did learn how to file flight plans, do all the things right. I live near an air force base, so there are entire sections of the city including parks where I cannot fly it.
Eventually it gets a little boring. I can’t wait for my toddler to get a bit older and then he will think it’s fun. For a week, and then he’ll get bored.
- Comment on How did the gun buy back program work did you get a gift card or cash or something? How effective was this? Did this even make a dimple in crime? 4 weeks ago:
I have to rewrite this because Lemmy tossed my comment, links are not accepted in my comments for some reason.
Australia implemented a gun ban and buyback program in 1996 which saw decreases in gun violence, suicides, and mass shootings. This was following a mass shooting in Tasmania.
Since these were already trending downward, some claim the program had no effect. But they collected over 650k guns and IMO this helped the stats fall further. https://www.rand.org/research/gun-policy/analysis/essays/1996-national-firearms-agreement.html
Another buyback program started last year because of a terrorist attack on Bondi Beach. This program is off to a rocky start with a lot of resistance, but it’s only been a few months since they started implementing it.

I didn’t even really consider her involvement until this week, now I am assuming she was in pretty deep

He looks like a nice guy, I’m sure getting rich off the self-exploitation of others gets you into heaven, which is why I am not sad that another billionaire is dead.

I once got my own dick in my mouth, now if I sit in a chair without lumbar support I can’t walk for 3 days.

- Comment on Sunglasses suggestions 4 weeks ago:
Go to the mall, find a sunglasses stand. Try on polarized sunglasses until you find something you like under $12 or so.
You’ll find the brand/model number written somewhere on the frame. Google it, and find someplace to buy them by the case.
By a case of 10, put it in your drawer. Bonus points for getting it in another color (I have a set of white frame chunky glasses, but also the exact same model in black for fancy occasions).
Now you have sunglasses you can afford to lose constantly, a backup supply, and a signature look.
