- Comment on What would happen if two buttholes perfectly opposed both fart at the same time? 4 days ago:
A person’s gut bacteria is unique. You could literally eat the exact same thing down to the last molecule as someone else and it would be processed differently between you two.
- Comment on NOT SEEKING MEDICAL ADVICE. Doctors can prescribe a whole host of "downers" like xanax, methadone, the whole benzo family. Is there any uppers they can prescribe? 1 week ago:
Had a stomach bug one time. Went to the ER (in hindsight I probably didn’t need to go). They were giving me fluids and something that had me crawling out of my skin. I just felt like I needed to move but I had an IV and monitors hooked up to me. Then they pushed some benadryl and I came floating down from that previous high. No idea what the stimulant was, but I did not like that feeling.

Drinking cotton Gin leads to cotton mouth.
- Comment on Why doesn't the NHL include playoffs from lifetime stats for players? 2 weeks ago:
Pretty sure all pro sports do this.
- Comment on Why does all AI graphic design have the exact same style? 3 weeks ago:
It’s like confirmation bias which I think survivor bias is a type of.
- Comment on Bisexuality released in 1995 and the devs still haven't dropped an update 3 weeks ago:
I remember applying for jobs in 2015 that were asking for 5+years experience with LGBTQ+ality for an entry level position! Fucking bonkers.
- Comment on if I rip a fart, will putting a fan facing out the window or facing in from the window clear the stink out faster of the room? 5 weeks ago:
Any room that was so airtight this would be a concern has already taken that into account. Air will get in under the door, through cracks or fixtures, or even the window the fan is in.
- Comment on Disgusted 1 month ago:
Only somewhat?! You disgust me!
- Comment on why'd we skip ceans? 1 month ago:
Pretty soon we’ll be back to jeans.
- Comment on A couple mates and I run askhistorians.lemmy.world. How can we get more people to post instead of myself all the time? 1 month ago:
Answers would help. Posting random questions hoping others will answer isn’t what makes an Ask[X] community.
- Comment on What would be a biological equivalent to an EMP? 1 month ago:
Not really. EMPs work by messing with the electromagnetic field. This essentially causes a surge of electricity in otherwise open circuits. There’s nothing really that would affect human internal components without also hurting us externally.
- Comment on How come Pornstars don't teach Master Classes? So the average joe or joness can improve relationships and get better orgasms. Who would be better than pornstars? 1 month ago:
They don’t need to be mutually exclusive.
- Comment on How do I turn fresh tomatoes into pasta sauce? 1 month ago:
Pro tip if you hate extra work and planning. Freeze the tomatoes fully. Then let them thaw a bit. Skins peel right off. This messes up the texture of the tomatoes, but is inconsequential for a sauce.
- Comment on Is there a website that can tell you the new names to I guess "classify" people? Like the R word, or the N word or skin color or nationaility? For ex. Is African American still acceptable and so forth 2 months ago:
I’d use
Black instead of African American
Native instead of Indian
Indian for someone from the country of India
[Nothing] for someone with a mental disability unless it was required in the context of the conversation. And then I’d hopefully know what the specific condition is (ie downs syndrome or fetal alcohol syndrome)
Not an exhaustive list. But a start.
- Comment on How to deal with people who obtusely miss your point on Lemmy? 2 months ago:
You don’t scare me! I’m upvoting your response here too.
- Comment on How to deal with people who obtusely miss your point on Lemmy? 2 months ago:
We clearly disagree on the point of your comment so I’m upvoting. Take that! You’ll think twice before you vote the wrong way next time.
- Comment on How com the ad industry make so much money? 2 months ago:
Unless I go on to buy it, no it didn’t. And there have absolutely been times I’ve explicitly avoided a company because of their advertising. As I said, I’m a net negative to those ads.
- Comment on Would a disk shaped planet have uniform gravity like earth or would it vary depending on whether you're near the center or edges? 2 months ago:
A galaxy isn’t a planet. Planets themselves are rarely perfect spheres. Earth is actually an oblate spheroid. Solar systems also exhibit planar geometry. They all spin. The angular momentum is enough to overcome the gravitational pull. If that momentum was not enough to overcome gravity, all that mass would collapse into a spherical object. Depending on how much mass would determine what kind of celestial body it is.

Should have just called it Overwatch Minus One.
- Comment on How com the ad industry make so much money? 2 months ago:
That’s why I specified the ads OP was seeing. For me, there might be ads that are seemless with something else in doing that I don’t notice and might work. But in OPs example in his reasons to you, fuck any fucking company that puts an ad inside my goddamn car. Ads at the gas pump can get fucked as well.
- Comment on How com the ad industry make so much money? 2 months ago:
The advertising you are seeing doesn’t work that well on you. I’m in the same boat. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t work. There’s a ton of advertising where I’m a net negative. That doesn’t mean the overall output is negative.
- Comment on Mark Zuckerberg leaves stranded boat passengers to die in middle of the Pacific. 2 months ago:
Pretty sure boats are registered to specific countries and generally fall under the laws of that country in international waters. In non-international waters, I’m pretty sure it’s under that nation’s laws.
- Comment on If you could use a Rube Goldberg like contraption on any task you find extremely strenuous, what would it be? 2 months ago:
Yup. Noise canceling headphones and audio books has helped me if a task doesn’t really require “braining”. If it does require “braining” I’ll find a noise youtube video. My preference is brown noise or any super deep low frequency noise.
- Comment on If you could use a Rube Goldberg like contraption on any task you find extremely strenuous, what would it be? 2 months ago:
Sounds like adhd. Setting 20 minutes aside for the purpose of folding is a monumental task. 10 minutes of panic searching when time is of the essence? Now that’s something I could hard focus on.
- Comment on Different strokes 2 months ago:
Worked at an office supply store. Ringing this guy up and one item rang up higher than he expected. He pointed this out and mentioned he even called to verify it was on sale. The GM hairbrush to be right there so I called him over. Customer says his piece again and the GM, I shit you not, just goes “oh yeah, I remember that call. Well that’s the price.” And just walks away. I just kinda blinked a bit and bagged the rest of the customer’s items without ringing anything else up. He got way more than what my boss was trying to stiff him on. I couldn’t understand what the hell he was thinking.
- Comment on Is the sea calm beneath the surface during a storm? 2 months ago:
I’d imagine it’s somewhat oversimplified. Consider rip currents. They look calm on the surface but can be deadly and carry you a mile out to sea. It might not seem like it if you don’t have a point of reference to track and cresting waves to get above.
- Comment on 10 miles to escape a bill 2 months ago:
There was little pain or blood.
The blood is all on the inside. That’s where it’s supposed to be right?
- Comment on *landbastard intensifies at the right of replacing a 2 dollar light switch". 2 months ago:
Halfway houses are for rehabilitation. A court allows you to live there with restrictions as opposed to locking you up. Even outside 55+ communities rentals can restrict other “tenants”. Those are vastly different scenarios, legally speaking, to restricting what the legal renter can do while simply living. As others have pointed out stay at home parents are a thing.
- Comment on *landbastard intensifies at the right of replacing a 2 dollar light switch". 2 months ago:
No take. Only throw.
- Comment on Why is AOC a big deal? She just speaks common sense and calls out absurdity. Have we really gone that far off the rails where we don't do it ourselves? 2 months ago:
She’s an attractive latina. This shouldn’t matter. The reason it does is because the right hates her for being liberal, but they hate even more that they could never have her. One thing to understand about the typical “alpha male” hyper^toxic^-masculine right wing narcissistic douche is they view themselves as hunters. They can’t or won’t acknowledge (or maybe they don’t understand) that they are in fact trophy hunters. When it comes to women, some of the biggest “trophies” are the strong, independent ones. Add in the latina flavor and top it with being liberal (that they would view as needing to be educated) and she’s one of the biggest trophies in their world. The fact that they have absolutely no chance with her pisses them off to no end. So she becomes the target of their ire. Then they try to trash her every chance they get. For this she has gotten a lot more air time and publicity than others.
