I’ve proven this so many times yet still yearn for more. I suppose it’s masochism at this point.

O- here. I frequently get called up when the red cross needs donations. We don’t get paid either but it’s an hour I’m off work and it does save lives.

I liked this joke better when it was about async. Fits the purpose better.

I can spend an entire long weekend vaccilating between these two, while not actually doing anything at all or advancing any goals, AND arriving back at work on Monday feeling so much worse than I did before the weekend started - only to crave more time off that I wouldn’t actually know what to do with anyway.

Someone mercy kill me, please.

Encrypted DNS traffic => oh noed, what now?

Two bears high fiving.

Yeah lol never lived in a house big enough to have a hallway, let alone across multiple floors.

I see this advice often, and in most cases it’s true. But most people with these issues are young and have lots of time to turn things around. I’m 40 and had my chances and blew all of them.

I stopped trying. People don’t want to hear anything I have to say, anyway. It’s probably better this way.

No, no, I definitely feel the hate. It’s real, and for some reason it got WAY worse after covid.

If voting actually changed anything, they wouldn’t let us do it.

Accurate except at feeding time. If they’re not all there at that moment, I know something has to be up. They NEVER miss a meal if they can help it.

Absolutely not.

If they learn anything from this, it will be to better find the boundaries of what kind of grift they can or can’t get away with. The criminals will get smarter and barely a slap on the wrist. Worst case scenario, an entirely new flock of shitbirds will replace them and keep doing the same or worse.

As long as no one at the top goes to jail or completely personally bankrupt, there is 0 incentive for the system to change in the slightest.

It’s only deadly if you inject the nug directly into your veins though.

Lol there’s even people accusing me of making it up or going to an illegal dentistry.

If you really want I can post pictures, but I warn you; they really aren’t pretty. I suppose I could also post the two or three pages of “aftercare” I got.

All in all, it seems a case of “This hasn’t ever happened to me, and it’s not my experience, so therefore, it can’t have happened to anyone, ever”. Whatever floats your boat.

Thank you for succinctly summing up why this scene was powerful and not just smut for the heck of it. A lot of people have issues with that scene but this is the exact reason it’s in there.

Funniest shit is that this is basically how IT was eventually defeated. By being ridiculed and laughed at. Well, that and a preteen orgy (“no, it was a train!”, yes I know).

I was actually warned against this since it can apparently cause actual burns if the liquor is high proof.
