  I do, otherwise I couldn’t have this issue! Pretty close to the way you do it, as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Such a welcoming community⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Right wingers fucking wish they could shitpost this hard.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon has a warning for incels⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I agree, in that “self improvement” is a fairly nebulous concept and acceptance of the self is a positive trait, but they should probably still look to improve themselves. Exercise, volunteer, pick up a hobby outside the house, cut off your toxic community and find another. Volunteering and community tend to go together, from my experience.

  But mind the allure of the trash piles, with their sleek chrome and opulent velvet. Lest you become what you rail against

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitch shape attack⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re asking a question without a complete answer, as it’s a complex system in active research, but truthfully, I only know of a couple offhandedly. Some strains of lactobacillus occupy space largely benignly, and some E. coli produce vitamin k. Hit up Wikipedia for an abundance of specifics.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitch shape attack⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Some perform tasks, but they largely just take up space, and that’s a good thing. Your body’s full of materials that malignantly pathogenic bacteria would love to get their hands on. Bacteria that are largely incapable of doing anything to us take up space that would otherwise be occupied. You’d likely prefer an old squatter living in your walls, rather than a crackhead. You’d probably prefer an electrician, but that’s life. Better they’re largely benign than overtly and desperately malicious.

  You factually do have a viral balance in your internal ecosystem. Bacteriophages cull populations, and some viruses hyper-specialize in attacking cancer. There are more examples, but I can’t immediately recall

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitch shape attack⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Take some of those same bacteria and set them directly against the intestinal lining without any of the delicious mucus in the way and you’ll have a slightly unpleasant time. And I’m being literal. It’ll be aggravating, and deleterious to your long term health, but usually not immediately life threatening. They’re absolutely beneficial, but they’re in it for themselves. They’re not beneficent, they just are, which was all the point I intended to make.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitch shape attack⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Never heard of it. Did you mean to say gigananomachines?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitch shape attack⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  In the same way that the mafia plays a crucial role in the Italian mafia government. They’re still a bunch of dicks, even if they’re working for us. Move ‘em 2 millimeters in the wrong direction and you’ll have a bad time

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Bitch shape attack⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Frankly, all life and life-adjacent things on this planet are either nanomachines or scalable nanomachines.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is a gamer⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t imagine buying a game and not playing it. The visual clutter gives me severe anxiety.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spidey Senses⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Moreover, they can give birth to live young. Live young that are, as you said, pregnant. My loathing for these parthenogenic little fucks cannot be overstated.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think she will notice when she gets home⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  4chan’s unique mix of garbage and treasure, subversion and trope adherence offers intrinsic value to all of its stories. Until you reach the last line, you can never be certain where it will go.

  But more than that, this is some misanthropic kid’s attempt at connecting to a wider audience, regardless of outcome or response. They’re a newborn, stretching out their fingers for the first time, freshly experiencing existence in an eclectic space that accepts all comers with near-equal ambient hostility. But yeah, this was a waste of time to read. And that’s probably what they were going for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spidey Senses⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Aphids are borderline mindless, their chief strategy is simply breeding more aphids. I’ve gleefully spectated ladybugs devouring dozens of aphids, and not a single one responded in any way. Tiny dead idiots.

  You might be on the right track, but I’m still struggling.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Spidey Senses⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Ants are rarely visual, but I’m also struggling to figure out which predator this is meant to dissuade.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon finds love⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Upvoted because I can’t be the last to hold the burden of reading this. I just fucking can’t, man.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Winner, winner, chicken dinner⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d name them Ramsay

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's the deal with gasping? Is it an inherent reflex? Is it learned? Did I desensitize myself to the point of not gasping anymore? Do you gasp? Do certain groups of people gasp less commonly?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Gasping exists as a universal reflex in at least certain cases, like jumping into frigid water. Dunno about other cases

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨bork bork bork⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m pouring one out for all the good ones we’ve lost along the way.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon loves The Lord of the Rings⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No, marketing firms. Have you not noticed them?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon loves The Lord of the Rings⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I have to ask, what spontaneously made the internet love the lord of the rings movies? For decades after they were made, only occasional jokes about unhinged 20 hour directors cut binges. Now? Frequent jokes about 20 hour directors cut binges, and endless sincere complements. They’re good movies, to be sure, but the shift always seemed inorganic to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨/tv/ watches 28 Years Later⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve given up on 99% of all movies released in the last decade. The remainder is the 1% starring Nicholas Cage, and therefore mandatory viewing. Was 28 3 really that bad?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon watches The Whale⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Spam

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon watches The Whale⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Robocop’s message was pretty simple, I thought. If you do crime, you’ll get your genitals shot off by a cyborg.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon watches The Whale⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Flow was a turning point for me. Haven’t drowned a cat since.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon watches The Whale⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s funny, I found it terribly sad, with a distant backdrop of optimism. Given that it was an allegory, set within a mashup of 3 different mythologies, I suppose it makes sense that it would have multiple interpretations. But yes, it was terribly sad, to my eye.

  For real. Fuck Goya

  “And he was cast down into the rolling expanse from which he carved ebon dominion. Those careful few who continue to tread upon his midnight kingdom have granted him a name, the only thing he could not take for himself. Fur Lucis.”
