- Comment on Y'all might not be ready for this 7 hours ago:
Idk, the internet, smoking rates, queer issues, maga, americans identifying as socialists, mass surveillance, etc.
Marty would be showing up in the 90s with a mustache and crop top, confused as to why everything is smoky as hell and why so many people are calling him homophobic slurs, as he has to figure out how to get onto and use the internet. Also a lot of his slang will be incomprehensible to the people of the 90s

Oh in Japan I saw a beer vending machine that had no age verification just on the street near my hotel. As an adult it was great since I was jet lagged and tired from a day of work, but I was also hitting up the conbini anyways so I defaulted to getting my beer with my onigiri

Oh I get that melded with the bed sleep. I’m definitely not energized the next day, but I’m relaxed then. It’s perfect for an enjoyable Saturday evening followed by a lazy sunday. I miss it

I think higher dose pieces should be available. 300 gummies are a lot and someone who’s on chemo will struggle to put down a ton of small candies. I just think that it should have low dose options available and boldly state on the front (and back) of the package the content per individual piece. It should also have a standardized dose recommendation.
If it was saying “1mg, very low dose, perfect for beginners and fine tuning” “5mg, low dose for regular users” “10mg, medium dose for frequent users” etc then I’m totally cool with it.
Fundamentally, it should be like with everclear. A 21 year old can just buy some everclear, but it isn’t being coy about the fact that it’s over 2x the abv of hard liquor. And in general I’m in favor of alcohol also having to openly display proof or abv.
- Comment on gummy 1 day ago:
Yeah, 2.5mg is a great dose for someone with little tolerance.
I support legalized psychedelics and party drugs and for them to be available at appropriate events, but the dose problem is a concern I have for it.

Yeah, typical 4channer would be disappointed that the artist isn’t either of those

Yeah, this ain’t whatshername that had his kid and went from chud to “dark woke”. Grimes has just remained the same

I had it really bad this morning. It’s definitely making me think I should make a secondary account for when world is down. Ugh looking up different instances…

My friend names all her d&d characters after parts of the vulva, and it works shockingly well. Just name a man Vas Deferens

That said I’m always here for some pro Charisma Carpenter sentiment. She routinely stole the show on Buffy

Because they get laughed out of our bars
- Comment on Happy Kirkday! 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, but you have to give it credit, it’s really easy to pick up as far as number systems go. Definitely less useful for math and science than modern European-Arabic numerals, but much better for logistics and administration than say roman numerals
- Comment on Happy Kirkday! 2 weeks ago:
It’s base 60 actually. With up to 5 𒌋 meaning 10 followed by up to 9 𒁹 meaning one. I actually should have put a space between the 60s place and the 1s place and formatted it as: 𒁹 𒌋𒌋𒌋𒌋
It’s a lot easier to read in clay because you bunch the characters up within their place, and if it were used in modern day it would likely be autocorrected to make it easier

If I’ve said it once I’ve said it 𒁹𒌋𒌋𒌋𒌋 times, the babylonians got it right

Yeah, seeing more info, I’ve got my doubts about her story, especially considering another trans member of the party is calling bs
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
“I don’t think it’s because she’s trans. I’ve faced the discrimination she’s claiming, but in the years since we’ve taken the party back and it’s generally very pro trans, including other trans people sitting in gendered seats aligning with their genders. Instead it’s likely about her hostile behaviors and some statements she’s made”

Microwaves are amazing, but they’re best for liquids or things that can be stirred and don’t need to crisp up.

Yeah and we engineers love parallelograms, but not as much as triangles.

- Comment on Happy Labor Day! 2 weeks ago:
Yeah that’s bullshit of them. I’ve seen a lot of favoritism towards office workers in manufacturing, but never differing days off
- Comment on Happy Labor Day! 2 weeks ago:
A lot of manufacturing shut down for large parts of the pandemic. Hence the supply chain issues at the end of it
- Comment on Happy Labor Day! 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, I’m an anarchist who generally does agree with Graeber, but I do think that it’s vital to understand that he did see office workers, including ones in bullshit jobs, as working class. He resented the bureaucracy not the bureacrat. And it’s important to note that plenty of office work isn’t inherently within his definition of bullshit jobs. Hell, I’d argue there’s a fair chance that the largest portion of people working bullshit jobs are in the category of “industry does more harm than good and the worker knows it”.
