  • Cocain isn’t calming at all! It tastes horrible, makes my throat go numb and dry which makes me gag, while everyone else seems to be somehow enjoying themselves and wanting more.

    I’ll be over here smoking my 16th joint of the afternoon while daydreaming of every anime fight scene I’ve ever seen all at the same, while taking out only half the trash before I start mowing either only the front or back yard while 2 songs simultaneously play in my mind thank you very much



  • I’ve been getting the Samsung ‘plus’ models several years after they come out for a couple hundred bucks and still can’t find a reason to upgrade from the S10+

    New phones are way too expensive for a better camera and marginally faster apps, which would be entirely out matched by a dedicated camera at the same price.

    Surprise surprise, I also drive an old ranger that has aux but no Bluetooth so everything works out



  • You’re previous, brief, comment literally mentioned media fear mongering - apparently it was imaginary media fear mongering tied to an imaginary scenario involving millions of interactions between men and woment and only two rapes (not sure how media fear mongering ties into an imagined hypothetical.)

    You are all over the road bud.

    I’m saying that it’s not media that’s brainwashed women into believing some Rape bogeyman exists - Imaginary scenario or not.

    It’s that every single woman personally knows someone(s) who has been raped/roofied/sex assaulted/groped etc. and they don’t need media hype to come to the conclusion that being raped in any environment is always a possibility. This is a very sad fact that women live with every single day.

    Not sure how you perceived that as an accusation that you don’t believe in Rape


  • Most of the “fearmongering” is actually women talking about their experiences.

    When media fearmongers Rape, it’s mostly by informing the public about rapists being sentenced to very light sentences, or rapists facing no jail time, or violent rapists being released.

    Either that or they outright victim blame and discuss what someone was wearing, where they were, who they were with etc, basically inferring that if she was safely at home under a man’s protection, it wouldn’t be possible for her to be raped - so look at all the safety she threw away to be reckless (outside without a male partner) and have fun (literally existing while being a woman walking sex organ waiting to be claimed).



  • Diamonds actually get their value because a single entity (DeBeers) owns something like 80% of all diamonds in the market.

    They dictate the price by throttling supply and naming a price. People are willing to pay as a flex but you are right in that DeBeers markets “real” diamonds and “lab grown”.

    It’s mostly done to capture different market segments, and to keep up the value of their stockpile of nearly unlimited diamonds already mined by people who are essentially slaves.

    That being said, if there was a market for diamonds soaking in vials of oppressed orphan blood (with provenance of course) DeBeers would absolutely sell it.

    If lab grown diamonds became significantly cheaper than slave mined diamonds, DeBeers would still likely keep their mines open to maintain control of the market. Even if they successfully moved consumers on to lab diamonds - can’t have someone else get diamond market share.

    If you haven’t tried the Enzyme supplement Fodzyme I can’t recommend it enough.

    Ever since I started using it I can (mostly) freely eat foods with garlic and onions as well as a host of other things.

    It doesn’t work on everything, but I have been ordering it since April and I am no longer reading every label on everything to avoid being sick.

    Everyone is different so there’s no guarantees on what will work for you, but I’ve been telling everyone about it (mostly because people always ask what I’m sprinkling on nearly everything I eat).

    I get the brown jar because the individual pouches are a rip off, but it’s less of an investment if you want to try!

    I’m clearly not understanding this platform as well as I thought, I should probably watch a video or something!

    The memes and boobs are great, but I’d love to get more reliable news and local information, seems like every Canadian one dies or is unpopular (fair enough given the limited user base which is still kind of nice)

    And the news + politics seems to crash, but that’s because I’m still using .World …I think?


  • Reddit is fun croaked for me last week, now I’m all Lemmy!

    Unless lemmy crashes, then I lurk reddit signed out with browser.

    As the crashes and maintenance here become less frequent and the platform is more reliable I’m ready to leave reddit in the dust entirely

    I’m okay with him being mocked with his own meme format, this doesn’t quite hit that note though

    “I’m a terrible human funded by other terrible humans : change my mind” is the way this meme should be used going forward.

    It’s no longer a useful meme for social commentary, and should really only be applicable when discussing how much of a piece of shit this human turd is.
