Stuck between reporting this as a spam post and declaring AI self-help the next great copy-pasta trend.
This isn’t even bad advice, it’s just long AF and in shitposts. I guess he’s shitposting us back with arguably useful information? I’m confused.

As a teen someone repeated the myth that wearing a bra to bed can cause breast cancer, “Say no more!” said I and never did ever again.

I loved working in libraries. But even after becoming a manager, i couldn’t feed my kids. It sucked. I miss it.
- Comment on Something something far-left 5 weeks ago:
Every food service place in my area fired their under-18 staff. Apparently it was a manager fad to declare minors “too much trouble” and so the only high schoolers I see are bagging groceries or camp counselors for little kids. My kids are 15 and want to start working but the best job in town that allows them is serving dinner and doing laundry at the fancy retirement community.

But are getting argyle gun skins?
- Comment on Tabletop Convection Oven* 1 month ago:
It’s a great alternative if your rental has a gas oven and you are rightfully concerned about the indoor air pollution caused by the burning of natural gas. We can’t change the installed range so we use an air-fryer/ toaster oven on one counter and an electric induction burner on the other. We got a wooded range cover and use it as counter space for food prep.

The AR glasses project is also dead. They laid off the team working on the hardware shortly after Trump took office in a bunch of other layoffs.

Nono, I remember this from JPII’s death. They yell his birth name 3 times into his room and then they use the hammer to smash his ring and seals. Dude was in a coma for a just long enough for us to hope for a Undead Pope -> Emperor on the Golden Throne situation.

That would make it a foot measurement, not a shoe size.

I propose this has the red flags for LLM created content
- No human uses the number button emojis
- Em dash with spaces used correctly. Not even an English major does this intentionally.
- Crap ass editing otherwise. Whoever hurried to give this “a human touch” also didn’t know WTF they were doing and tried to re-write the Yoga section, pooly.

Hossenfelder is fine but tries to educate way outside her realm. Her cryptocurrency episode made me lose all respect for her.

No shit. I’m at the Dr asking for PT rx and they don’t fight me one iota. I just motion at my shoulders. “They are behind me.”

Security theater, just like the TSA. They don’t need to stop bad actors, they just need to convince their shareholders that they are taking action against losses.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 months ago:
Fucking infuriating! This happened to my 4’11" bestie because her husband is 6’ 6". They have been called out in public so many times and had to provide they are 14 months apart in age. Funny when they were 15 and 17 but now It’s been happening for 20 years!
- Comment on Anyone remember this? 3 months ago:
Yes, if all had been perfect it should have only taken about an hour but dialup internet was ditzy and unreliable so I spent a huge chunk of that weekend getting a full download.
- Comment on Anyone remember this? 3 months ago:
I sure remember the HOURS it took me to download that sucker on my 14.4kb modem. I was blessed by the gods with a parent in the computer industry even then so we had a 2nd phone line that I could monopolize for a day of agonizingly watching and praying not to lose connection again.
- Comment on Is Civilization 7 not fun? 4 months ago:
This right here.
I played 6 at launch and it was a huge downgrade from 5 but now it’s been updated so much it’s now unrecognizable from what was released as 6.
Every patch, update, and DLC will change it incrementally back into a similar experience as the others. They like to try to get real wild with the initial release but it tends to get back to the same sort of things eventually.

Thank you! I didn’t want to have to dig up the episode by hand. The YT short missed the excellent stinger that seals this joke.

Both are recoverable but the astrology daughter is much cheaper to handle. Tarot, crystals, and star charts don’t eat retirement funds.
Daughter with a Psychic, much tougher call.
- Comment on I got the money saved in my mansions safe. 4 months ago:
Doesn’t putting the $$ anywhere that’s not retrievable miss the point of having an emergency fund? It’s supposed to be liquid assets you can spend if you had to. Putting it anywhere with good returns would keep it from being available at 11:45pm on a Saturday night when the ER is demanding payment now or they won’t treat you.
- Comment on The one drawback to walking at night 4 months ago:
Not 7.5 times higher though. No other factor is as big a predictor as gendered violence. Men commit violence against women and other men much, much more often than women do.
And if you are a man, you should be just as mad because the chances that you are a victim of a violent firm by another man is much higher too.
Not all men are violent, but men and women are both victims of the anger of this small-subset of men that we have been unable to identify what else they have in common beyond gender.

Its the exact same thing I tell every libertarian asshole. You are all chained dogs who think you are lone wolves, can’t survive without whatever master you serve and bark at the rest of us to “do better”.
You told OP you think less of them for the post but call me disrespectful. Get fucked.

So, you a cat? You do nothing for anyone else and pretend you don’t use any resources?
There are plenty of people who took care of your dirty ass, whoever you are. If you are still breathing, someone gave a shit enough about you at some point to stick a bottle in your mouth to keep you from starving.
Hence, no one is an island and when you pretend otherwise, you prove what a kept, babied, ignorant person you are.

This is the exact ableist attitude the OP is talking about. Getting armed and defending yourself isn’t a useful option when they don’t need to storm your house to kill you and even if they did, you might not be able to physically use the gun.
Self-defense is an ablest concept, get out there and defend one another!

I played Dauntless hardcore in the beta. My team and I really enjoy it and it was going to great but it went to Epic we never gave it another thought. A real pity because the combat was fun. IDK how it evolved but the chainblade started out really enjoyable.

I’m upset about this but I’m way more upset to be finding out about it from Lemmy instead of from my school district or PowerSchool directly. My Pennsylvnaia school district hasn’t said anything about this.
