Yes, you have to spread your hand out like a spider to hit at least 5 of the nipples at a time otherwise it’ll bite and nip at you.

You are just… Everywhere.

Not complaining, I’m just impressed. I feel like I’m in Lemmy home when you’re around.

How in the heckin’ is JD below a dwarf, a mad scientist tinkerer, and a random catchy band?

He is a caring, trained, and competent doctor who will put his pride and personal life aside to help a patient.

I’m gonna have to take the bullet and tell my girlfriend I’m gonna go kiss a boy because I really want to know more about 40k

I do this all the time. My son used to roll his eyes, but now he joins in, asking his grandmother for a “fork and ka-nife” or saying “I can do that, it’s my pierogi-tive”

I like to think that he forgets, keeps trying and then makes a new post about it

That bear didn’t do anything that was unpredictable, it did what a bear does. I never said a bear wouldn’t maul you, treat it as a bear.

I didn’t say women aren’t unpredictable, that’s a weird take at best, and an argument on a logical fallacy at worst.

I didn’t imply that women can’t be just as evil as men, they absolutely can, because they’re human beings. Same for anybody who’s non-binary, they’re just humans.

I’m sorry that happened to you, nobody deserves abuse.

I don’t understand what you mean by data source. It was an internet trend and some men, not all, got really pissy that some women, not all, chose bear instead of man. A friend explained to me why they might do that and it makes sense, at the end of the day it’s people sharing their opinions, and sometimes trying to understand others opinions helps us understand them better.

I don’t see how it’s sexist, I see no proof, only your opinion based on talking points. Same goes for it being transphobic, it doesn’t make sense to me, please clarify.

If anything this is just a conversation, not proof, your word is worth just as much as mine. We’re just two people sharing our opinions, that’s it.

Tbf a friend had to explain it to me, when the debate went viral at first I was mainly confused. I’m sure when I was younger I would have been one of the men with delicate egos that would find it irrational to not choose a man. It’s actually more thought out and rational when women say bear.

This place is worse than Chomashu!

The question isn’t sexist, it’s emotionally driven, and dismissing it outright is narrow minded. That is what I think is dangerous.

The truth is the question reveals that to most women asked the question, men are unpredictable, and women have to navigate the world that way.

A bear is a bear, it’s always going to do what it does, and you can work around that. Leave it alone and it will leave you alone, even if you have to work hard to avoid it. If you disturb it, it will kill you. It’s predictable.

Men on the other hand are very likely to respect women, maybe even work together. However, there is the small, small, SMALL chance that they will be a terrible person. They could attack, abuse, sexually assault, straight up rape, or even kill the woman; or they could do a disgusting combination of those.

The true root of the question isn’t “do you think a random man is more dangerous than a wild animal?” Of course not.

The real question being put on a social scale is “what’s more predictably dangerous, a random man, or a wild animal?” And the fact that women almost unanimously have the same answer should be commentary enough on how they have to live their lives.

I don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, I had the same thought

I get that, I think the difference is Mr. Beast never admitted to being a dick and presented himself as “fun and kind”, whereas Louis expressly and repeatedly says “I think I’m doing a good thing, verify if you want, fuck you if you disagree, I don’t care about your opinion.”

I’ve had both kinds of people as bosses and employees, and I would absolutely work with the second kind again.

Louis is self-admittedly an asshole, but he’s a fair asshole and his people stick by and swear by him, even after they leave.

I respect him and truly feel he’s honest, especially when he has so many receipts.

I’d rather an honest asshole than a kind manipulator.

Maybe this in Julian calendar?!

That means we only have 247 years left!! REPENT!!

I like your question! To me it starts with a real apology without excuses. Real apologies are generally short and put one in a vulnerable situation, like

“I’m sorry for spreading these lies, they aren’t true and I did it from a place of ignorance”

No “I didn’t mean to,” no “I’m not racist, I’m mixed,” and so on.

She’s not expressing remorse, she’s selfishly scared for herself.

Remorse requires accountability, not excuses and projection.

She made a racist, hateful, hearsay statement and now that it might affect her she says she can’t be hateful because she’s “gay and biracial.” That’s the definition of dodging accountability.

Because they have Air Conditioning.

The thing they should have had for the last 40 years. With record breaking heat year after year it should be hazard pay without ac

This is the problem.

I needed a car battery the other day and just wanted to know if it was in stock because it’s a little uncommon. I went online, it said they did, went to the store, they didn’t, told me to call and verify because online updates overnight.

I called 4 different stores, nobody answered the first 3, 4th one rang forever, then an auto answering thing kept me for 5 minutes and when no option helped me it said “try again later, goodbye.”

You didn’t misremember, it was a scholarly discussion point that spread too far before it got debunked, like how some people still believe the “gum stays inside you for 7 years”

I was talking with my girlfriend and Tar Shampoo came up, and I said “I don’t even know exactly what that is used for other than dramatically killing off a horse” and she hung up on me.
