Haha, no no. You threw down with a gigantic source of cell destroying radiation. The fire did no harm.

It felt worse. Getting a recognition certificate or a white ribbon for coming fourth was a total bummer to my care-factor for participating. Kick a kid while they’re down and they’re not likely to be motivated.

- Comment on Why is the progress pride flag so poorly designed (especially the intersex progress pride flag)? Will it be redesigned? 6 days ago:
You’re right. Could literally design anything and people that know nothing about any of it could figure it out quickly. But instead, a salad of sex preferences, gender, race, kink, specific US cities, all appearing to be under the Intersex insignia.
It’s always seemed so bad to me that it’s more likely to be done by an anti-woke troll or someone like Michael Scott discovering Pride Month.
It’s just offensive. Obviously to the eyes, but also to any group being shoved together within its borders.

For me, first immediate issue was,
“Now let me settle in with my comfy computer jeans and leather boots.”
I bet that buttoned collar shirt has never seen Cheetos dust either.

- Comment on Why is the progress pride flag so poorly designed (especially the intersex progress pride flag)? Will it be redesigned? 6 days ago:
They all sprung up in that period where flags were trendy. Every little camp had to have one to feel like a singled-out tribe—and, no, this isn’t just kink flags. This meant many would be flag designers overnight.
The result is there’s some really fugly designs out there in the wild now and the idiots can’t go back. But most people are over flag phase now, so you’re unlikely to ever see this and most others out in the wild.
Nothing fails more at its job than a pride flag that people have no idea what is. It’s almost irony.
And is this one ugly? Oh, yes. Enough to turn a person straight.

Honestly, if we’re gonna be this bad on our bodies, we may as well just lay down and have monitors above us as the norm. It sounds unhealthy, but only because we’d be admitting to ourselves how unhealthy were being so we may as well take care of our skeletons over the hours and days and weeks and years of the same shit.

I imagine they’re depressed. Their job is to help out idiots every few seconds. When not doing that they’re probably pondering the validity of a doomed race.

What kind of idiots are comparing the two? They’re different things with entirely different markets. There was never a battle to be had lol

Ah. South of the Arctic.
- Comment on Does anyone actually own a shirt like this? Cos you'll need it in the ZA 3 weeks ago:
I have a couple, but they’re wind resistant, odourless for about 4 days without washing, quick drying, and durable. The buttons are also studs and covered to help with water proofing, but allow for opening it up to cool down.
There’s a big difference in a $100 shirt styled to look rugged and a $100 shirt actually designed for long periods in the wilderness. They probably look the same to most people from afar.
- Comment on what is north? 3 weeks ago:
I assume they mean “just north of Antarctica”. But really it could be any body of water on the planet it could fit in.

I’ve just had .ml blocked for a long time and life’s been good. I would prefer defederation. If put democratically, I’m sure that’s what would be voted for as well.
- Comment on Pull to enter, you say? 3 weeks ago:
To be honest, I sometimes miss these because I’m tall and they’re so low, by the time I’m at the door, I don’t see anything obvious. I have to bend my head down to notice there’s writing on a button that otherwise looks like the top of a fob scanner or something.
Those big chunky buttons that push like emergency stop buttons but are green, they’re helpful.
- Comment on Calm down 3 weeks ago:
Yeah, I feel like there’s rarely a “calm down” window for the men that need to hear it. There’s calm, then there’s hurting themselves by breaking things or hurting other people. “You need to calm the fuck down!” is likely to work, whereas “You need to calm down” will only make things work.
Insecurities fuelled by testosterone. Where fisty cuffing anything appears to be a positive step toward sound resolution.

- Comment on We're deep into the baggy era mate 4 weeks ago:
Aye, but in colder temperatures tight denim cools over leaving no air pocket to trap body heat or improve wind resistance. There’s no one on this planet that can generate body heat on such a level it can counters the atmosphere, so creating a little atmosphere inside the denim with loose jeans is the next best thing. It’s the same concept as single vs double glazed windows.
If you want tight pants in cold climate, need to use high textured material likecorduroy or fleece, otherwise add a thermal base layer under the denim.
- Comment on We're deep into the baggy era mate 4 weeks ago:
I’ve always rocked regular or baggy. It’s a comfort and practicality thing. Having skinny jeans takes away the point of denim being durable and warm, something it needs to be loose for.

It’s always this unless you can think of a time you specifically damaged the port. And you’ll be surprised how much shit comes out with the tip of a plastic toothpick; how it was somehow actually managing to still charge in the first place lol.
