Are the pads kevlar? I thought they were mostly just plastic.

Looking at the completely undesirable and incomprehensible bits of reality is bad for the psyche if you think that death is inevitable. Otherwise you’re just looking for clues.

I’ve found that trying to find a girlfriend is futile. I’m 45 and have girlfriends whenever I want to deal with that level of drama and commitment.
The trick is to go out and find groups that are also into your hobbies. If you are actively improving yourself to get better at a hobby seems to be attractive to everyone, though I will admit that far more homosexual or bisexual guys hit on me than women, unless I should count the compliments I get, those come from women more often than men, but I don’t know how to gracefully receive a compliment. My standard response is “Thanks, umm [insert something complimentary towards the person in question.]”

Derail Valley Simulator won’t let you drive that exact steam engine, but it simulates Diesel, Steam, and an Electric engine quite satisfactorily. To the point that I can’t use the steam engines without blowing them up accidentally.

I feed my dogs pumpkins as a treat. They love them. Every year we get a patch of pumpkins growing where they poop. Poopkins if you will

It’s corn! It has the juice.

I was a kid at the time, but I’m pretty sure we used kerosene. It was red.

CAVEAT: This does NOT apply to hornets, particularly the ones that boil out of the ground. Run for the fucking hills.
I’ve only encountered those fuckers once in my life. They made a giant nest in a rather large sand and gravel pile on my parent’s property. After a year or so of them being there, an older cousin of mine had the idea to try to take them out with slingshots. I suggested napalm.
We compromised. We whipped up a batch of improvised napalm with a bunch of kerosene and a styrofoam cooler, poured that down the main entrance of the hive extremely carefully, and lit it on fire. We then spent the next few hours taking potshots at most of the hornets that tried to flee while on fire. We made certain to kill the queen when she finally emerged, though I don’t think she was long for the world anyway. She couldn’t fly, and had burning “napalm” covering half of her. We still made sure to throw a large stone on her.
- Comment on What is your favorite Metroidvania? 2 weeks ago:
Castlevania Symphony of the Night.
It’s only $3 on play store and iPhone store. The phone version has the advantage that you only have to cast/input each spell once, and then you have a button to press.

No clue. No idea if this is the same dev that joined the VS team.
- Comment on HyTale has been acquired by the original devs and is going to release into Early Access 2 weeks ago:
I wonder how this will affect Vintage Story. At least a couple of the devs were working with them on a “Fantasy Mode”
- Comment on Stop stressing my GPU and start hiring artists 3 weeks ago:
Similarly Schedule I. Tyler optimized TF out of the very unrealistic graphics in that game, and is only hiring an artist so that the expansion looks pretty.

Found my first grey hair when I was 16. Since then, multiple GFs have found the occasional grey hair. I’m 45, and weirdly my hair keeps getting darker. Used to be a platinum blonde, turned sandy blonde, and now it would be called brown…

Leaving it.

Unfortunately, if one were to invest a single gram of plutonium, not only are you ill equipped to actually properly harness even a small percentage of the heat energy it will produce, it also qualifies as a heavy metal, so there is every probability that whatever you do actually ingest before the chunk of plutonium exits your rear end, will end up in your bones thereby irradiating you further than the original gram of plutonium irradiated you as it passed through your digestive tract, mostly unobstructed, provided one doesn’t have a previous bowel obstruction.

Yeah, rewatching the documentary that Patrick CC made on him does highlight that a bit more than I remembered.

He’s openly said that he isn’t Jim Carrey, Jim Carrey is his Batman to his Bruce Wayne.
“I’m not real.” -Jim Carrey.
- Comment on When it hits you.... 3 weeks ago:
I think you may be reading him wrong. He keeps saying he isn’t him or anyone else. I think he thinks that he is just a guy, and Jim Carrey is his Batman. I kinda feel bad for the guy, as it seems that he has to keep feeding the machine so he can pay for whatever debts he’s trying to take care of.

I just tell myself that I was 11 when Christina Ricci played Wednesday as a 14 year old. So my eternal crush on that particular version of Wednesday Addams is fine, since she is always roughly 2-2.5 years older than I am.
Interestingly I super babby hate every version of Wednesday ever since. The animated ones were cool, but the latest version isn’t an Addams. The latest Fester is kinda cool, but he’s still not quite a proper Addams. An Addams is all about protecting, helping, and growing La Familia.

Seconding Pissman’s advice. The only other tip that I know of is to encrust it with salt as well as oil, but that seems to be expensive and unnecessary. Honestly just cooking several pounds of bacon in it will do the same thing.

- Comment on Happy American import day 5 weeks ago:
American or Canadian propaganda that was slapped on 1/12 or 1/13 of the entire Native American harvest festivals. I don’t remember if there were 12 or 13, but their version of Thanksgiving happened that many times per year.
We just took one of those days and slapped a coat of Union Jack paint all over it. That’s also why Canada celebrates their Thanksgiving earlier than we do.
- Comment on Happy American import day 5 weeks ago:
Thanksgiving is not celebrated correctly anywhere it is celebrated. It originally was a set of 12 or 13 harvest festivals that the English settlers appropriated a single one each. That is literally a celebration of imperialism. Watch Addams Family Values if you want to see an appropriate representation of what thanksgiving should look like.

Sure, but then you mash them. Technically, the peanuts you get in most stores have only been roasted once then mashed.
