  That was how I got my first head injury!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It would be so interesting if humans didn't have a gender assigned at birth and could choose who they want to be.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Imagine coming to Lemmy and being told you picked the wrong gender distro.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dreams are just ai slop your brain forces you to watch.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The big difference is that I often enjoy my dreams.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Humanity's concern with the extinction of a species depends on its complexity and cuteness.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Kinda true. We’re celebrating the upcoming extinction of Guinea Worm in Africa - a parasite that causes painful wounds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You can't see your own blind spots⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  That would explain the name.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unfortunately, child murderers have more in common with child molesters than with children.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI is great if you consider life is meaningless and these hairless apes are only here for the blink of an eye.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It depends on the tune.

  The average highschooler nowadays doesn’t get to dissect executed criminals.

  Apart from the obvious use, you can carry water in it if there’s an emergency.

  What do you mean ‘the far future’?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do people eat this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  1861? I wonder what the original poster’s ancestors were eating back then.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If you are, so am I. I was part of the BBS scene, and it didn’t survive the transition to the internet. I’ve never felt so well-understood since then. Sometimes I dream about the LAN parties and summer picnics.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨If the color of the Sun was orange, wouldn't the clouds and everything white also be orange? My friend is adamant that 30 years ago the "real" Sun was orange but got replaced with a white LED.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Your friend is not for taking seriously.

  That’s not really much of a concern unless you aim satellites directly at it. There’s plenty of space in space.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how to dust properly⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You can wash it off. Just hold the duster under a tap and run cold water over it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨how to dust properly⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  My wife uses an ostrich feather brush. It carries an electrostatic charge that holds the dust.

• How does that craft where you stab a ball of fluff with a needle until it looks like something work?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The more you learn about human biology and childbirths, the more you'd realize how shitty and inferior this form of existence is...⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh yea I have depression…

  I had wondered.

  A female friend once remarked to me that giving birth makes as much sense as exiting your car by crawling out through the exhaust pipe.

  My sister’s first pregnancy was high-risk and she needed a c-section. She went on to get pregnant twice more. When I asked her why take the risk, she told me “because I get a kid out of it”. 🤷‍♀️

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People with no friends needs to get the fuck up over it⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Turn youtube off and go outside. You need some light that isn’t filtered through your computer screen.

  I’ve always thought that if you share an opinion on a movie, you should also share your reasons for having it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could gunpowder be chemically addictive to humans ?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  And in the early days they obtained the potassium nitrate by boiling shit. Might be the opposite of addictive.
