That’s when you hurriedly plant milkweed and force the monarchs to begin their migration immediately from your backyard, while you bathe in fruit juice.

MY GRATITUDE, FELLOW HUMAN.``` - Comment on Insulin 2 weeks ago:
I thought “crash your glucose instantly” would be understood as hypoglycemia, but English is not my native language.
- Comment on Insulin 2 weeks ago:
I’m sure an experienced medic in an emergency could work with it somehow, but for the rest of us living in civilization, insulin that has been outside their recommended temperature range is very dangerous.
Long-acting insulin has crystals that dissolve at body temperature over time, hence it can gradually release insulin over hours. If you break or dissolve those crystals by freezing/thawing/overwarming, the best scenario would be that it became fast-acting insulin, and it would crash your glucose instantly on injection of your usual dose. The worst scenario is that it no longer acts like insulin.

- Comment on How do you objectively tell if a parents "I love you" is actually sincere, if they actually care about you? Or if the words are lies and they don't actually care? 3 weeks ago:
May be both, but universally, actions speak louder than words.
- Comment on People who think an attack on another user is approproate for this sub, and the mods that enable them 3 weeks ago:
Ah, I see it now. I’d agree that the post should be removed, because it’s mostly noise, it isn’t even an attack.
Maybe the description could have been clearer, to help clueless people like me who aren’t used to all the different UIs Lemmy can be accessed from.
- Comment on People who think an attack on another user is approproate for this sub, and the mods that enable them 3 weeks ago:
I see no significant attack in your screenshot, if you want mods to censor to such level, you’ll make this place hostile for casual talk, a fascist place where people will preemptively censor themselves before being punished.
If you so passionately dislike the thorn guy, block him, and let others decide if they want to block him too. Don’t impose your tastes on the public.
- Comment on How hard would it be to trap gated communities by crashing dozens of cars into the front of their gates blocking them from leaving ? 4 weeks ago:
I think you’d just make Uber Helicopter start sooner.
- Comment on Are platforms like reddit just "internet noise" and bots or just genuinely the darkest parts of humanity? 4 weeks ago:
Reddit has become a profit-driven cesspool, even more that it was before their IPO and the LLM craze.
It is still home to great communities, so don’t drink from the firehouse, google Reddit+interest and only visit those communities. Subscribe if they match what you need. Ignore the main feed, it’s a perennial garbage dump.
- Comment on What do you call the beleif that gods are just higher beings on other planes of existence? 5 weeks ago:
Okay, it’s superstition, of which religion is a variant. There’s a very thin line between having faith in the supernatural and worship.
- Comment on What do you call the beleif that gods are just higher beings on other planes of existence? 1 month ago:
Yup. Believing in higher beings from other dimension is just religion with different words. Only when the belief is based on fact and not faith can it not be religion.

- Comment on Fictional 1 month ago:
One light year is 9.4607379e+15 meters, so there’s a power of 10 that could give us a unit of length close to 94 cm. That would not be as arbitrary.
But fuck me if we discover the speed of light has not been constant along the history of the universe, the c would be an awful base for cosmic distance, or very long term science.
But don’t worry, humanity doesn’t look like it will exist long enough to do very long term science.
- Comment on Velma can't math. 1 month ago:
Holy cow, it’s a 70s franchise, but I misremembered, even though I watched dubs in the 80s! Technically it’s a 60s franchise because it was born in 1969.

Oh shit that looks like the Fallout 76 Enclave cot! And you say its smart‽ Give me 20!
- Comment on Velma can't math. 1 month ago:
I don’t know. Seeing how modern shows like Foundation, The Witcher, or Star Trek Discovery, to name a few, have gratuitously walked over their own canon, I can understand how the producers thought Velma was a good idea for a new Scooby Doo show.
- Comment on Velma can't math. 1 month ago:
It was never about Scooby Doo. IIRC, this was supposed to be an original show, but latching it to a successful 99s franchise must have looked like a sure money maker.

You ignoramus. This is what allows us artistic geniuses to freely unleash our gifts to the world, what we call “creative liberty”.

- Comment on [deleted] 1 month ago:
Make up should disappear, and more emphasis should be applied in medically-sound skin care. Your skin should be healthy enough that you don’t need to cover it with paint.
I get that using colors is fun, but makeup as it is today is way beyond reasonable, it’s not only about painting your skin, it’s about insecurity.
Painted hair is cool though.
