  Thanks for the explanation. Makes more sense that way

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Buddy baka⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol wtf

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there people without handedness?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They are so coordinated it’s hard to tell by looking that’s for sure. Keeping time has always been the hardest part for me though so I find drummers and bassists pretty impressive. RIP Phil Lesh

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there people without handedness?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I play strings right handed. It seemed weird to me too that the off hand is doing the easy work. Playing left feels wrong like batting right does though. I guess the rhythm is easier to control with the dominant hand and hitting the wrong note/chord doesn’t matter as much when you’re in time?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there people without handedness?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There are dozens of us! Dozens!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are there people without handedness?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A version of what you are saying is called cross dominance. Where a person is “handed” but users different hands for different things. For example, I write right handed but play sports and shoot left handed. I use left handed scissors but right handed hammer, screwdriver. All of the things feel awkward with the wrong hand but that hand changes with the task.

  I prefer corn tortillas but often end up buying flour to keep at home because corn tortillas have to be warmed and flour doesn’t

  Today what this whole convo needs. Apiarists and structural engineers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thought I heard a buzzing⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I have heard that but the ones that live in my parents walls die en masse in the winter and it rarely gets below 50F. So I don’t know if that’s life cycle or cold?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Thought I heard a buzzing⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I wonder if that would be up to code. What is the r-value of a bee box filled with bees and honey? Also, the consequences for punching a hole in the wall are now immediate and serious.

  You don’t think a man has ever tried to use divorce as a threat to change his spouses behavior?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon has marital problems⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ned and Ted have a marriage bed
  Monogamy is good for Ted
  Many hungry holes has Ned
  Ned shares the marriage bed
  with other men not named Ted
  Ted says Ned must quit their bed
  Because of commitments that once were said

  Ted now sleeps alone it seems
  For freedom Ned no longer dreams The problem wasn’t that Ted was cucked
  The problem is that Ned just sucked

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon has marital problems⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Such a weird obsession. Some people are shitty and infidelity can be terrible but to spend so much mental energy focusing on the humiliation and righteous anger part is bizarre. No one cares you were cucked. Women aren’t property and some of them suck. Everyone understands that some people suck. No one cares you were cucked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Broccoli, cheese, and MILFs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s medical advice because it came from a doctor in a professional setting when we were discussing how to get more iron in their diets since we don’t eat many fortified foods. Kale and broccoli are close enough nutritionally to be swapped if one is just looking for the vitamins and minerals. Lastly, It the longest I’ve ever continuously followed a recommendation and it has made my life way easier. That makes it the best advice I’ve gotten.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Broccoli, cheese, and MILFs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Many years ago my kids pediatrician recommended feeding the kids kale smoothies. I didn’t have any Kale at home so I cooked bunch of broccoli to mush and mixed it with bananas. Those kids eat half a pound of broccoli for breakfast just about every day now. They also eat it raw or crunchy cooked. Definitely the best medical advice I’ve ever gotten and the kids are used to a very simple and quick to make breakfast that keeps them full for hours.

  Tldr: Kids constantly surprise me and sometimes they like vegetables.

  What I like to remind myself is that we judge ourselves by our intentions and others by their actions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Excellent anti smoking ad⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Hopefully they are at least teenagers. Childhood is too early for cigarettes these days

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon reaches encopenment.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cope. Also, thinking that casual sex is the standard is self defeating if pleasure is the goal. Casual sex is cool because it requires very little of the participants. Get off and get going, everyone is somewhere between satiety and scratched itch in terms of payoff.

  Long term partnered sex is like an ongoing conversation about pleasure and likes and dislikes and leads to way more fulfilling encounters. It can also just scratch the itch but has more upstream pleasure potential ime.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I think your complaint is similar to that of non smokers when smoke breaks were normal. What you see as preferential treatment is just how everyone should be treated.
  Also, In my 20 or so years in the legitimate workforce, I have seen parents cut slack and parents get run off because the boss doesn’t like people having other priorities. In my direct experience it’s been a lot more boss dependent than anything else.

  Damn this is way better than the original.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it okay to take drugs to make yourself a better person? Does it make a difference if "better" is mental or if it's physical?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It just improves the ability to focus. It doesn’t really make one focus on the right thing. Also, the alteration in abilities isn’t free. The good effects of any drug are weighed against the side effects. There is always an opportunity cost to any drug. The poster above you was right on with his steroid comparison.

  Firefox for Android. Wouldn’t load the list of beaches for me until I turned off shelter. Just kept reloading whatever frame is beneath the text input.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How are scammers getting my email address?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve used that website in the past with no problem but a heads up I had to turn on js and off antifingerprinting to get it to load this time. For all those more security conscious than I

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Support local bands⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to love big arena shows until I saw a famous band do a three night stand at a small bar/club style venue. After that, I started going to shows of bands/performers I hadn’t heard of. Changing how I thought of shows, where before I thought of it as an event like going to see a theatre play, to thinking about them similarly to how I’d think of going to the movie theater made the whole live scene seem more accessible and more fun. I hope when my kids are older we can start going to more shows again.

  I read an article that said being in a band is less appealing to kids these days and that being an influencer is more popular than wanting to be a Rockstar. I hope it’s just “old man yells at clouds” because I feel like there is always room for more local acts. Support your neighbors, go dance!

  Takes forever to find the flight feathers on the little guys and it’s very intricate work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Goodwill is out of control⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I understand the frustration but Goodwill sells all that stuff to support it’s job training and skills program. Here’s the mission statement . Most people see it’s value as a place to donate old stuff or to buy used clothes cheaply but the organization sees it’s purpose differently.

  Not they could. They do. You can buy squab in restaurants. Maybe stores but none I’ve seen.
