I love this place. Post anything about this on reddit and it’s likely to be removed if it gets too positive or the bots downvote it.
- Comment on Wait, my body's own heat is enough? Always has been. 3 weeks ago:
This is a great way to mess with the self appointments lords of the thermostat as they caw their favorite sayings like “Wear a sweater” and “turn the lights out when you leave the room”
- Comment on Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice? 2 months ago:
That’s what I found. I thought people were faking because I was cynical. Then I met healthy people and realized it’s actually ok to care and I was choosing not to care instead of choosing to care. Do I care all the time, absolutely not. But I’m getting better. I find I enjoy listening to people who are healthy have these conversations while looking at them without the cynicism.
I started to realize the small talk that a lot of people online complain about is a choice.

Why are you keeping dead bodies in your house, ashes or not.
- Comment on Why limit immigration? 2 months ago:
No unfortunately. There is plenty of evidence of immigrants building their own justice systems and authorities under the radar of their new countries because it goes against the freedoms and expectations.
We shouldn’t ignore that and not talk about it.

Need to test by providing a tag at the start of these episodes that provides instructions how to kill yourself

I’m not on any of these sites but often I’ll sit down to play a game and stare at my game library. Fully knowing if I try any I’ll like them. But instead I sit and flick through the library and end up playing nothing, maybe even buy a new game and turn it off before the load screen. Then I go to bed. I wonder if it’s the same feeling

I think it was that people weren’t seen as victims. They weren’t seen as helpless
- Comment on How come it seems for the past decades the Catholic Church has been plagued with sex crimes especially among young boys? How long has this been going on? Or did I just miss something up. 3 months ago:
Kind of given considering the nature of the job. I heard a radio show where they talked about this with someone in the church who explained that the church offers forgiveness for sins to people who are willing to commit to God. I don’t think to many pedophiles want to be attracted to kids and probably see themselves as evil. People probably figure it out at the same age that the priesthood is calling. So it’s a place for these people who probably do want to purge themselves of their evil but reality is the church can’t do that so their ranks fill with them as much as it gets filled with our types of people who see themselves as sinners like former drug users and wall street bankers. The whole program and discussion made me feel like the church could be seen as a victim in all this as well. But then they fuck up by hiding these people and shuffling them around instead of bringing them to justice.

When it happens do you say " husband it is time for performing oral" and your husband says “why indeed it is time for performing oral how delightful.” Because that would be weird.

- Comment on IQ Test 4 months ago:
Awesome thanks for all the information.
Here is my take away, speed is not real. Its a concept created by Big Relativity.
Just mindblowing to me that speed does have no effect on us under certain conditions. Like learning that pregnancy can work in zero G. As if we are star people not just Merpeople from the ocean.
- Comment on IQ Test 4 months ago:
But then there is no limit to how fast we could move? Like there is no speed our heads would explode. There’s no side effect of speed I guess is what I’m asking. Like 2x speed of light would be no different to us the 5km an hour only thing would stuff external to us like the length of things gets shorter. I get in atmosphere we’d be shredded. But technically we can just go.
- Comment on IQ Test 4 months ago:
Wait, dumb question. I’m a vacuum can I go as fast as I want. Like as long as acceleration is cool. Is there technically no downside to increasing speed. Just like we’re technically on a planet spinning fast. If I was in a ship in a total vaccumu and it accelerated at a pace that I could handle, could that ship go faster and faster like a bajillion km a sec and I would just be like sitting there enjoying the ride.

I’ve always wondered if it’s those over clean types. People whose always obsessed with cleaning. They don’t want to dirty their own environment with trash so it all goes out immediately
- Comment on New tech discovered 4 months ago:
I don’t think that’s why questions aren’t asked. I find questions aren’t asked because of ego. Nobody wants to look like they don’t know things. Lots of people will judge others for asking questions. I’m a question guy and it always surprised me how other people just knew things and didn’t ask questions. But I soon started to realize that they don’t know as much as they want others to think. They just have a high value for more independent thinking.

AI clock would be sweet.
Knows I slept through an alarm and wakes me up or suggests the right time to set alarms based on traffic conditions
- Comment on I grew up in the era of Photoshop and people would post fake nudes. Why is it now a big deal that AI is doing it? Kinda like the Taylor Swift thing on twitter. 4 months ago:
What if my goal is to constantly be led around by media every decade to fear things needlessly when when they use the same lazy appeals every decade.
The right have immigrant headlines. The left seem to hate AI and technology now.
What’s mind blowing is how the same headline are used for both.
