- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 5 hours ago:
But one option is hygienic, the other two are convenience. Fuck convenience, put the lid down and wash your hands, it’s for everyone’s sake
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 5 hours ago:
You are correct, I did mean lid down too
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 5 hours ago:
It does make a difference, it means measurably less poo bacteria on places like your tooth brush
- Comment on The whole "toilet seat up, toilet seat down" gender debate could be solved by everybody putting the seat and lid down. 8 hours ago:
But seat down is more hygienic when you flush. It isv the morally situation superior position
- Comment on Is there a self-help way to deal with fear of germs/"contamination"? 21 hours ago:
Force yourself to do things you think are gross. Touch the sink and eat a sandwich. Eat a cracker off the floor. Little, very low risk things like that
Practice being able to overcome it, it’s that simple
- Comment on People who have eaten since December 31st, 2025, why are you trying to start new shit? 21 hours ago:
Trying to get out all the 2025 shit. 2026 may or may not be better, but I know I want to be done with 2025
- Comment on Do I have extreme anxiety? 2 days ago:
You think it hasn’t crossed their mind already? The urgency is the point. They need to tell others they are in distress
You can’t just be left in that state, it gets worse and worse. And if it’s a brain tumor, which could cause many of those symptoms, speed is survival.
I get what you’re saying, but sometimes “it could be a brain tumor” is the brain worm that makes you push through when your family initially dismisses your symptoms
- Comment on Do I have extreme anxiety? 2 days ago:
The headaches? No idea. Never had paranoia either.
But I just managed to get treatment for a crippling anxiety disorder, I spent 6 months pacing or crying into the corner
Your description sounds a lot like how I was before my family realized how bad on a way I was. It sounds like major anxiety disorder plus plus
It could also be a brain tumor or something else to. And it can’t wait too long
You need to get help, get your people, tell them you’re not ok, and let them help you. Call all of em. Scream it out that you ain’t ok
I am in distress. There’s nothing undignified about it. Let those who care about you pick up the call. Let strangers pick up the call
Keep screaming. I am not ok! I require assistance!
All else fails, go to the ER, they have to help you. But do the rest first, everyone has some kind of people. In a way I’m of your people, so I answered, best I can, how to call it out better
- Comment on What are therapists allow to share about their clients? 2 days ago:
They can share details, just not your details. And if the details they share reveal a connection to your identity, they fucked up
- Comment on If you save someone's life and then you save her life again next year, how many lives did you save? 6 days ago:
You usually can’t get pregnant in your 80’s lol
- Comment on If you save someone's life and then you save her life again next year, how many lives did you save? 6 days ago:
One. It’s the same life, otherwise you could save infinite lives by care taking for a suicidal octogenarian
- Comment on Hospital Bill 1961 1 week ago:
They actually turn around and will slash the cost for the uninsured the second you dispute it. They don’t actually expect people to pay that much
It’s a weird dance with insurance companies, they say it’s costs 20k and then insurance says “ok, I’ll pay 7k” and you pay 5k
An uninsured person might get away with paying even less than $5k when it’s all said and done. It’s not a real healthcare system
- Comment on How does internet advertising work? Where is all the money coming from? More... 1 week ago:
Yeah, it’s untenable. It’s a bubble
- Comment on Why aren't tall people also wider? 1 week ago:
They are sometimes? It’s just gene and expressions. You can be short and wide just like you can be tall and wide, it be either and be slender
- Comment on Are we deprogramming empathy in the US? 1 week ago:
Of course they are, they’re full and doing great lol
I might be starting one soon with mostly family… It’s a long shot, but I’d interview you then the time comes if you want. No promises
- Comment on Visa says AI will start shopping and paying for you in 2026 1 week ago:
Does it? It makes me feel hungry
- Comment on Visa says AI will start shopping and paying for you in 2026 1 week ago:
Don’t worry, the empire collapses once the debt gets so bad it can’t be paid
Then we either do a jubilee and forgive all the debt, print money and go into hyperinflation to wipe out the debt, or we do neither and our leaders keep arguing about it until starving peasants break down the door
- Comment on better? 1 week ago:
I think it just really matters where you were. In the Amazon? It was a huge food forest with an enormous river right there, not much gathering required
In African savannah? Well, now you need to do some walking, and hunting probably isn’t optional
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Because it’s a farm subsidy.
You thought it was about starving people? Fuck no, that’s basically coincidental, it’s for the farmers! You know how they get when they don’t get endless subsidies
- Comment on ICE Contracts Company Making Bounty Hunter AI Agents 1 week ago:
Then don’t get Galaxy scale with it, I wasn’t. This has nothing to do with evolution, that’s a myth of capitalism. Capitalism developed organically, not naturally… There’s a huge difference
Throw 50 people into an empty resort for a week with nothing to do. What happens? They play games, they cook together, they go on hikes together, they start projects, they separate and return to the group as needed
This isn’t a hypothetical. Have you never experienced the natural human state? No multi day reunions or weddings? Or living on campus at University? Just any situation where money isn’t really involved and everyone is around with lots of free time
- Comment on ICE Contracts Company Making Bounty Hunter AI Agents 1 week ago:
Of course. Because we’re social creatures, that’s our natural state
Most of humanity’s problems exist not because they’re inherent, it’s because for 1000 generations we’ve been building up self-reinforcing social structures that have entered the end stage. Where everything is squeezed for profit and the real value of it is drained away
We like to do things together. We’re wired for it. With unlimited time and resources, why would we not live near and visit our favorite people? Why would we not explore the world around us? Why would we not work to make life nicer? Why would we not reach out to others who fall through the cracks and find themselves isolated?
- Comment on China Has Reportedly Built Its First EUV Machine Prototype, Marking a Semiconductor Breakthrough the U.S. Has Feared All Along 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, but that would be like launching a nuke. The whole world is dependent on TSMC for like… All of modern life
- Comment on ICE Contracts Company Making Bounty Hunter AI Agents 2 weeks ago:
Luxury space communism is what they have in Star Trek.
You can make anything with no human labor, so why shouldn’t everyone have access to whatever luxuries they want? Obviously there are practical limits for the common good, like everyone can’t have a yacht, there’s not room and it’d destroy the oceans. But everyone could share a fleet of yachts
Instead, people work for social status, and because humans just like working
What I’m referring to is what if we mastered automation and shared the fruits of robotic labor freely? When machines can build and maintain themselves outside of the gravity well with no human involvement, we’d have an exponentially scaling pool of workers and basically infinite raw materials
Then we’d be free to do the jobs we want to do, not what has to be done or what has a high work to reward ratio
- Comment on Firefox dev clarifies there will be an AI 'kill switch' 2 weeks ago:
I haven’t seen that, but the memory footprint is insane
- Comment on ICE Contracts Company Making Bounty Hunter AI Agents 2 weeks ago:
Tomorrow the Epstein files will be released, 70% of all politicians and most billionaires will be arrested for pedophilia, and we will come together as one to build luxury space communism
Don’t wake me up.
- Comment on China Has Reportedly Built Its First EUV Machine Prototype, Marking a Semiconductor Breakthrough the U.S. Has Feared All Along 2 weeks ago:
China seems to be closest though, if they reach viable modern CPUs first…
But realistically, I think China made a deal with the West to hold off on Taiwan until we have at least one modern chip fab working in the US and Europe
- Comment on China Has Reportedly Built Its First EUV Machine Prototype, Marking a Semiconductor Breakthrough the U.S. Has Feared All Along 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, that’s what I mean
Doesn’t matter if China’s chips are economically viable if they’re the only ones making advanced chips…
- Comment on China Has Reportedly Built Its First EUV Machine Prototype, Marking a Semiconductor Breakthrough the U.S. Has Feared All Along 2 weeks ago:
And even then, it’ll need to be commerically viable to compete with the West.
Well, unless they invaded Taiwan…

- Comment on megashark literature 2 weeks ago:
Unironically, yes. Creations turning against their creators, classic. The wizard was probably set up as the personalization of some force or ideal, like a Greek god
And let me guess… This led events that set up some kind of call to adventure for a hero, who initially ignores the warning signs until something bad happens, then he goes on a journey through a wider world than he could ever have imagined, and after defeating the villain and/or ending the threat he returns home changed?
That’s a total shot in the dark, I have no idea what movie you’re talking about, but in modern storytelling we usually have an A and B plot. And the heroes journey is by far the most common story in media
How close was I? And what’s the movie?
