The Sunlit Man is even more tech combined with magic. Read that one yet?
What other books do you like in that genre? I loved Mistborn/Cosmere realm and Powder Mage series.
- Comment on Do you think a story that mixes magic with super advanced technology can work? 4 days ago:
Most magic books have a magic system that seems to be backed up by sciencey like explanations for their universe.
I can only think of a few that don’t, like Harry Potter.

Bro, if it bites him he will get a spider dick that shoots webs.

They might have active parents lol. When I was growing up, very few parents cared what we were doing as long as we weren’t flipping cars or coming home in a police cruiser.

I actually think what you said is the real point of the image. To me they are saying that they will cheat with a girl that looks just like you, because that’s how guys be.
- Comment on Cut up those shitposts 5 days ago:
They replaced the foods with crap. A lot of people can’t afford vegetables and fruit and there are people living in food deserts who only have access to a family dollar for shopping.
It’s a real problem and they just cut all the funding to help get healthier food into these places.

Its actually an experiment to see how long someone can survive off Twix. The administrator is simply keeping the subject entertained with this left right twix discussion.

But the sun hurts vampires, wouldn’t they be happier without it? At least until everything else dies and they starve.

Oh this is way older than 20 years old. My grandpa was telling this joke like 50 years ago. He also was a school teacher, I suspect it has been circulating through schools for the last 60+ years.
- Comment on How I view others in social media 1 week ago:
The amount of comments I half write and then scrap is probably nearly the amount I actually post.
Does this add value or is it just taking up bytes? Am I relatively sure what I am stating is correct? Will this impact the person I am replying to, or the other readers more than not commenting at all?
And those are just first order questions before I even start to get frustrated with language structures or phrasing my thoughts in a way that is accurate.

I am imagining there is like thousands of years of canine lore about how sometimes the humans howl back. Trying to understand why it happens, what triggers it, what it means when the humans howl…

If I had a quarter for every bill that passed that was “unpassable” I would have a pocket of quarters.
- Comment on if pure water is not conductive why would condensation be an issue for electronics? 2 weeks ago:
So could I clean my air by putting a humidifier on one side with a fan and a dehumidifier on the other?

Yeah, but you can make like 20 servings of Jerkey at once. You could even buy a large amount of beef at Costco or a bulk meat market and use part of the beef for a meal and Jerky the rest of it.

They have lightweight air matresses. I get the best sleep ever camping, as long as it gets below 60 in the night.
- Comment on Ball for a ball 4 weeks ago:
Its not a headstone its the ball removal stone. You put your balls up on it and they wack it with a club until they are removed from you.

Those are actually coveted jobs, much less manual lifting and much higher pay because of the license requirement.
Merchandisers go into Walmarts, big grocery chains and the like and fill all the shelves, move out pallets that have already been dropped in the backroom by the truck hours or days before. The trucks have electric jacks, that part is pretty easy. What’s not easy is being one person during the summer time, hauling a dozen pallets out of staged trailer with a manual pallet jack with one wheel stuck (bc grocery managers are power tripping usually) and then move that all out across an entire Walmart to build out a 10 pallet display and then fill all the shelves. And the slower you move, the more soda you have to move later as people buy more… I have worked 28 hour weekends. Pay was good for not being skilled and I was in the best shape of my life, but it would have took my back out so quickly. So many situations where you are forced to lift over things or lift weigh too much, or literally move a ton of soda on equipment that isn’t entirely functional.

Kind of a tangent, but when I was younger I used to accidentally kick myself in the balls by sitting cross legged too quickly and hitting with my heel.
- Comment on To whom it may concern 4 weeks ago:
Feel free to stuff as much paper as you can fit, it’s just wood and plastics that are too rigid for the machines to handle sometimes. USPS gets money for returm mailing, so it’s a benfit to them as long as shims or pieces of plastic arent flying around the facility like a bullet.
- Comment on If I snapped you back in time 650 years right this very second, how would you use your current knowledge to succeed? 4 weeks ago:
Europeans would show up and my Native American homies would be armed with cartridge rifles, six shooters and a crank rotary machine gun.
- Comment on To whom it may concern 4 weeks ago:
It wouldn’t surprise me if one slipped through, there are overrides on stuff that get rejected and USPS is a massive organization with millions of parcels moving at any given moment.
This idea came from people mailing wooden shims back to the credit card companies because it would increase the postage cost over the normal weight… Please don’t do that though. Letters go through a Dr. Seuss Esque sorter system and the shims are too sturdy and sometimes get ripped out of the mail and shot across the facility…
- Comment on Anon is a senior citizen 4 weeks ago:
I have seen people destroy their backs working as a soda merchandiser before their 40s. That can be a surprisingly brutal job with ridiculous demands.
- Comment on Dehumidifiers are confusing. Here's why. | Technology Connections 4 weeks ago:
I think it’s bots that are targeting users. I have seen downvotes less than a minute after posting on good content.
In the same vein, sometimes you will notice one user who very recently posted a bunch of comments on a post and they literally all have 2 downvotes, yet are about entirely different things.

It would, he has fine hair and no matter what length or how it was cut it’s not going to look great without some product to give texture.
