At my job there this almond flavored coffee pods that when brewed smelled overwhelmingly almond-y. My cousin works in metal reclamation an they work with a LOT of cyanide, I tell him if he ever wants the day off, I’ll get him a pod, all he needs to do is spill that coffee and they’d shut down the entire floor to double check things.

(context if you’re lost is that cyanide smells a lot like almonds)

When social workers intervene in situations like this the practice is called ‘Crisis Intervention’ so depsite harsh sounding conotations I believe this meets crisis criteria.

“But who prays for Satan? Who, in eighteen centuries, has had the common humanity to pray for the one sinner that needed it most?”

I went to a religious school and after learning the whole fallen angel backstory I used to pray for him, didn’t know until learning of that quote that Im not the only one. I later learned from a smarter religious teacher that the devil is not canonical, at least not in the way they’re portrayed today. You can thank Dantes Inferno for modern devil characterization.

How much needs to be heated? If I toast the bread but not the other ingredients, then clearly I did cook by that definition, yeah?

Did the person who named the station know, or did they not research the name they ended up choosing? Its been declassified, it’s on Wikipedia. It strikes me as anywhere from unlikely to unresponsible that the guy didn’t research what he intended to use for a name.

Radio Free Asia is a CIA front for info dissemination so anyone who’s aware of that would rightfully be skeptical of ‘Radio Free ______’

Ill put it like this, im serious enough about it that this is as much of it I’d ever say on the internet.

I know thats right.

Thats the neat part, you don’t. Social medias value isn’t determined by it’s tech. Its value is determined by who and what you can interact with. For example, people wont leave Facebook because everyone they know is on facebook because people won’t leave Facebook. Twitter is literally run by a nazi at this point and still it’s the same story where Mastodon and Bluesky aren’t even close. Same thing for reddit and lemmy. Lemmy simply doesn’t have the content reddit does, look no further than sports subreddits where any given game has a live game thread with a hundred or more unique commentors.

If you want mode people to come here you’re going to need to do two things. One you need to post content people want to see, and two you need to get very very lucky because as it stands if you don’t care enough about decentralization to lose out of a lot of content, theres literally no reason to be here. Its a long slow road and you’re still going to need reddit to do something stupid before we see another growth spike.

Body positivity almost doesn’t exist for men. As soon as some asshole guy does something, its jokes about their body. Ive seen jokes about being short and no one cares as long as your talking about Putin or Tory Lanes, fat and small dick jokes constantly thrown at Trump. All of these are body shaming that will never be seen by the people they’re directed at but will be seen by pleny of others with those features.

If you believe the patriarchy doesn’t harm men and can’t be enforced or upheld by any gender, you have an incomplete view of what patriarchy is.

Courage the cowardly dog is how I describe the word Kafkaesque to people who didn’t read Kafka. At least the not bureaucratic context of that word, but im sure I could find an episide that has the bureaucratic context too.

Everyone says to talk about your problems but the second you do, you’re told that women either have it worse or how they have some worse problem. I’ve largely stopped talking about my problems because I’m never heard, just talked past or worse, made out to be the problem. The older I get the more reinforced my silence is because evey time I open up it’s used against me and this is just normal.

Meanwhile I’m expected to play therapist when someone else talks about their problems and I have to stop my autistic ass from telling them I really don’t want to hear about you. I can’t even get the silence I give returned to me.

Af first I somehow read Arbor Capitalism and I was like aww fuck they’re coming for the trees now.

But I’d seed an upload

The Bad Dragon company wants to know your location.

Yeah it’s more like a side effect of hate drugs.

Exit polls aren’t legal in Venezuela which is likely going to influence who and how many people actually respond. Take them with a big grain of salt.

Two nuts were walking down the street. One was a salted.
