The real question is do they start using ounces for amounts equal to or over 28 grams?
- Comment on If a girl asks you if you're big, are you supposed to lie or not? 1 week ago:
Flirty answer followed by real answer if actually pressed. It’s not like it’s something you reasonably have control over anyway (I don’t consider lengthening surgery reasonable, though more power to anyone that does, it ain’t my body), outside of maybe some small gains if losing weight in your pelvis area or improving your general cardiovascular health.
Not gonna come out here and say size is totally irrelevant, but there’s lots of ways to have great sex without going around bruising women’s cervixes.
- Comment on Aight. Let's be honest. How many of you dress for yourselves, and how many dress for others? 2 weeks ago:
Hell, I BARELY dress for myself.

It seemed much cooler back when it was called cyber-anthropology. Second Life seemed like it was going to be much more important than it turned out to be, among other things.
- Comment on Does being a ‘hero’ mean you are a perfect person? 3 weeks ago:
Gonna echo the other folks here - heroism does not require perfection. Every one you can think of as a hero has a flaw (or several), big or small.
The upside to this is that heroism is accessible to almost everyone. Any opportunity you have to do the right, but difficult (and tbh sometimes not all that difficult, perhaps just uncomfortable or risky), thing is the chance to be a hero to someone in some respect. The downside is that people you may admire as heroes, when you meet them as just a person, can sometimes be disappointing.
The only flawless heroes are superheros (and even then, few are written about like that these days). Think about that prefix- how are the terms superhero and supernatural alike?

Sort of, or the legs of others? Ran to raise money for cancer research and awareness, he’s basically the closest thing we have to a secular Saint in mainstream Canadian culture. The Terry Fox Run is a staple of grade school life.

You ever start having a lucid dream, then something kicks in and it’s not really a lucid dream anymore?
This is me with this thought. Quite liberating in the moment but hard to maintain to guide my actions for very long.

Kid steals magazine from dad/convenience store, shares the wealth with the homies, ditches the evidence.
Though I do still enjoy the legend of Horny Appleseed, doing god’s (?) work.
- Comment on winter fans 1 month ago:
The vibes are pretty comfy until you get past -15°C and/or mid-to-late January. After that, it’s either too cold, too slushy, or too grey and gross for me to enjoy.
Give me a summer evening/late night over that any day. Do love me a good snowstorm, though (from inside, with a hot spiked coffee and simulated fireplace).

The thing is, the specific meaning transmitted in a meme can shift slightly depend on how and where it is used. I’ve seen this format used in one of two contexts to date:
-
Purity statement, whereby one side is clearly meant to be the ‘correct’ position. Usually assigned to the male figure, but with some variants where that is switched.
-
Illustration of differences between two groups, where the idea of ‘correctness’ of one side over the other is either absent or secondary to just illustrating that difference.
Then there’s the slippage between these two, which can be fun to tease out. IMO this meme is an example of the second usage, with some possible slippage. Both sides claim to love science, both sides have things that are sciences and things that are science related but adjacent. Each is assigned topics for which there’s a stereotype about men’s/women’s level of participation. I look at it and think “Here are two people who both truly do love science, but different domains, and each is still learning which is why some elements are imprecise/not specific sciences”). Basically, 1st year undergrad BSc man and woman meet at the record store.
Now, depending on authorship and original context, a declaration of purity may be intended (I’ve seen stuff like this with that intent from insecure engineering students before, usually men), but I feel it loses some of that when deployed in a generic science memes community (as opposed to something like ‘Spicy Memes for Bridge Building Boys’ or whatever).
I’d be curious if this was OC, or if not where it was taken from.

- Comment on The recent Steam censorship debacle actually sort of opened me up to adult games. 1 month ago:
Kinda funny to see it in Canada as well, especially when you throw Quebec culture into the mix (things seem a little more sex positive over there compared to other parts of the country, which is neat to think about sometimes).

- Comment on what books about personal boundaries do you know that don't mention god? 2 months ago:
It’s a question that isn’t relevant to OPs ask here. Do you have a useful book suggestion that presents the topic of boundaries and maintaining them in a secular way? Whether they believe in a deity or not?
- Comment on what books about personal boundaries do you know that don't mention god? 2 months ago:
Nedra Glower Tawaab’s books come highly recommended: Set Boundaries, Find Peace + the accompanying workbook, and Drama Free (mentioned here already).

C’mon Flax, we get it, you’re a Christian. OP’s just looking for a secular self-help/psychology book. Do you have a recommendation or not?

I am a horrible person, but the only thing I can think of reading this is a small-circuit wrestling event where all participants have this set of chromosomes, billed as ‘The Triple X Throwdown’, for the title of Supreme Female.

Milk, butter, a lil’ cream cheese, extra shredded cheese, spices to taste. You’re welcome.
- Comment on It slaps tho 2 months ago:
Boil mac and cheese, drain the pasta, put in industrial cheese powder agent, moisten with water instead of milk, put in butter/margarine/tears and stir.
- Comment on They'd just appear out of nowhere 2 months ago:
I’d recommend seeking out a therapist if it causes you distress, specifically one with some clinical interest in psychedelics if possible (keywords include ‘integration therapy’). Know that while there’s still a lot to learn about HPPD, you are not alone, and in a lot of cases it can be managed. It’s mostly a question of recognizing your triggers and developing tools to work through them (so if stress is a trigger, stress reduction techniques; abstinence from cannabis or other drugs if that’s a trigger (pretty common), etc.)
Some folks just kinda roll with it, but there is stuff you can do help manage.
- Comment on They'd just appear out of nowhere 2 months ago:
Lol, HPPD go brrrrr.
I can’t tell you if this is what you’re experiencing, but worth a read if you haven’t come across the term before: …wikipedia.org/…/Hallucinogen_persisting_percepti…
- Comment on Anyone else from Europe feels the same while browsing the "All" feed? 2 months ago:
I think there’s a place for a community called ‘epiceriedumemes’, a play on words denoting both variety of content (like an epicerie) and spicyness (epicier).
Then again, it also really invites more bakery memes, so idk.

Real talk, this is the absolute first thing that popped into my mind reading this thread. Have some cards for therapists in the overnight bag for folks that make her go “This is beyond my expertise as an escort. You want the other profession that leases their time by the hour for human interaction.”
