What do you mean there’s no milk in my steak? I demand meat milk! lol
- Comment on Ubisoft: Microtransactions make games more fun 1 day ago:
For a second I was worried this was an Unpopular Opinion post but then I realized no one has ever actually thought this ever.
- Comment on Help prevent teenage agricultural addiction 1 day ago:
If I saw it today, probably yes, lol. I saw Gluten-Free on a package of strawberries recently, though.

I couldn’t even tell what they meant by that panel, lol. My first thought was the “non-gmo” labeled sea salt I saw once that blew my mind.

I’m sure they’re populated… by something. Roaches, probably.

Right, but he could have done the funniest thing ever and just left those kids there.

Oops, I failed and he killed another healthcare CEO. Oh well!
- Comment on Los Angeles paid $400M+ in 4 years to people hurt/killed on the streets. LA spends more money paying off people injured or killed by its street designs than it spends making streets safer. 1 week ago:
Carbrain is strong, but they’re still trying to invest some in public trans. Unfortunately, I saw recently they’ve been pushing a public Uber alternative as a sort of last step after using a train, which I can’t imagine helps.
I kind of understand why-- LA is very spread out. I was told or was because of earthquakes that we couldn’t build high but that doesn’t seem to be true anymore.
If it’s any consolation, we haven’t taken the “one more lane” thing too far, there aren’t 12 lane freeway monstrosities at least.

Ugh duck autocorrect.

SMS has a character limit, although most modern phones that still use SMS will at least give you a 3/3 thing and send all three texts at once.
- Comment on If this seems exaggerated to you then you haven't worked in IT long enough 2 weeks ago:
This sounds like something out of Rusty Lake to me, but needs more owls.
- Comment on Mullvad's ads are good 2 weeks ago:
Lol, people have post-reddit PTSD if they think you’re a shill. Maybe if/when Lemmy hits the mainstream but man, we’re so off the radar most marketers have no idea this place exists.
It’s a waste of money unless you’re advertising something for Linux and/or communism… which would be a bit of a paradox, lol
- Comment on cooking question 2 weeks ago:
I mean, I do like that new electronics smell. Not sure if it pairs well with the mountain dew reduction, though.
- Comment on That's the truth 2 weeks ago:
Not even just that, my stomach would make that weird gurgle sound and I’d be done for.
- Comment on A Completely Natural Conversation in the NYC Reddit 4 weeks ago:
You know, use of long dash is the same kind of tell as an image having 6 fingers. Not impossible to find in human interactions but generally very rare, especially in online conversation. (I’m not even sure if my phone can do a long dash, just these fellows: —).
- Comment on Behold 5 weeks ago:
Sometimes the alt text makes the image even better. I saw one from Shen comics the other day that went above and beyond on that alt text.
- Comment on Protip: 5 weeks ago:
There is an actual belief out there that your feet get some sort of power by connecting to mother nature barefoot. It’s insane woo nonsense, but that meme lifehack literally would be something they might do, lol
- Comment on *pat pat pat* 5 weeks ago:
That’s the expression of a man who just had a random naked encounter with an albatross. It’s a mix of befuddlement and wonder.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
I hadn’t even thought about it until you brought it up. Kind of disappointed in people jumping on this like flies on shit but like… it’s 2025, so bigger things to be upset about.
In any case, apples and oranges. And PSA, if you need a Switch 2, grab em on the rebound. There’ll be used ones, likely hackable in 6 months and none of that goes to Nintendo. Don’t forget what their legal department has done in the past few years.
- Comment on Nintendo Switch 2 Hacked in 48 Hours — But Here’s Why It’s Just the Beginning 5 weeks ago:
Piracy and emulation is inevitable, although we’ll see if it’s months or years. I’m boycotting Nintendo over their legal practices, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want to play their games. It’ll be extra juicy to be able to emulate it eventually, although buying used is technically an option too.
- Comment on the cake is a lie 5 weeks ago:
I mean, they still do (especially with rats). But yeah, blinding kittens and giving people PTSD and such was pretty bad.
- Comment on game has multiple factions fighting each other 5 weeks ago:
Oh right. Like #368 on list of reasons to hate the South, though.
- Comment on I don't really need it but it makes me feel better about myself 1 month ago:
Oh please, just tuck it into your sock like the rest of us.
- Comment on How do you keep track of what games you have played over the years? 1 month ago:
I’ve been using Launchbox, especially since I play emulator games. They’ve improved the efficiency of large libraries and added support for RetroAchievements, although I manually toggle completion status since I don’t always use it to launch my games so the time tracker isn’t accurate.
More importantly it let’s me hit randomize, so if I’m feeling adventurous it’ll pull a game from my backlog I might have got from anywhere.

Free to play players can at least restart their account until they get at least one 5* Queen, but even then it’s hard to beat the whales.

Jokes on Om Nom, Rule 34 exists.

Given I’ve got Pokemon themed decorative towels, the blood really adds a certain feel to it.

Nah, academics love their publication biases.
Wait, I mean journal publishers. Publishers love their publication biases.

Always hate when it suddenly tries to collapse on ya when you’re in the tub.

What I’m hearing is we should joke about alimony and suicide? Dark.
I’m kidding! You’re right, although I want to add that I’ve even heard the worm thing as a reason for his bad decisions, etc… Cover there, too, as plenty of people with no brain damage make terrible choices and have horrible anti-science views.
