- Comment on Homo erectus, not sapiens, first humans to survive desert: study 1 week ago:
I wish I could see what it was like when numerous human species coexisted. It’s a fascinating window of our existence. I can’t learn enough about ancient humans.
- Comment on Destiny 2 Has Lost Massive Amount Of Steam Players Since Last June 2 weeks ago:
After The Final Shape, the urge to play has just plummeted. Episodes are the same. Thing. Over. And. Over. Again. With the same old awkward exposition. The seasonal events are the same every year. And so on.
I’m playing the new dungeon with some friends and that’s it. There’s better games to play. Or rather, ones that respect your time better.

When people say nothing bad happened I’m like “did everyone forget the huge amount of people who died needless deaths?”
I swear we live in different worlds

Wait so Belgium is the New Jersey of Europe?
- Comment on This is in a small convenience store where you can buy food things and heat them up while in the store 3 weeks ago:
Drug tests.
Buy store-bought urine or bring someone else’s for the test. It’s still gotta be body temp when you use it. So you nuke it for a few seconds before you tape it to your leg on your way in.

- Comment on Pointless existence 4 weeks ago:
Real talk, if my life ever goes real sideways I’d love to be a monk. Just maybe without all the prayer.
… do I just secretly want to be institutionalized?

I respect and am grateful for your service.
- Comment on Steal Her Look 2 months ago:
I remember reading ages ago that reindeer do that the other way around too - they learned to drink human piss when the farmers ate the mushrooms because it would get them high. So now reindeer are attracted to Siberian herder piss.
I have no clue if that anecdote has held up, the book I read it in was on some real hippie shit

Ooh, I should be near a few of these in a couple weeks. Might as well make the stop.
- Comment on Are illegal streaming sites really getting shut down a lot lately or has it always been like this? 2 months ago:
I wonder how profitable they actually are. The ad money must be reasonably good to justify the risk.
Though I suppose the risk is exactly why these sites are run from the countries they typically are…

For anyone looking for a fun way to play with your toy cars, I highly recommend the free tabletop game GASLANDS. Glue some guns to them and blow them up with your friends!

Oh I pulled that from Google, I just looked until I found the one that helped me grasp it.

Literally the only correct answer other than polite silence.

Thanks!

This should help
- Comment on Trick OR Treat 2 months ago:
I was gonna say lol that’s a fancy way of describing three-ways
Fun fact, you can put as many 4-ways in between those 3-ways as you want, or as many as your electrician will agree to anyway. You can switch the same light from a dozen spots if you really want to.
- Comment on This feels wrong. I love it. 2 months ago:
Makes sense, thanks. More of a data transmission than an electrical power thing.

Would you explain how, for a simpleton?

Concord/Firewalk is gonna be a running joke for years to come
- Comment on Pressure vs Temp 2 months ago:
Solid = conforming
Gas = non-conforming
Fluid = either depending on the person at the moment
Super critical = ignores gender as a concept entirely in their self-definition
- Comment on Pressure vs Temp 2 months ago:
Transcendence of gender as a concept entirely
I am I, gender is a social construct I no longer need. My gender can be perceived in infinite variations depending upon the observer.
- Comment on It's a matter of perspective 3 months ago:
If we were talking about the normal version where one perspective does see 4 sides and the other 3, then I’d agree. But right wingers often completely ignore science and facts for what they feel is right - despite loudly claiming the opposite. They’re simply wrong about any number of things, from economics to gender studies to climate change, but they insist on their positions because of how they feel on a fundamental level - that all the common-sense folks around them think this way, their preacher thinks this way, and they don’t trust anyone they haven’t personally encountered long enough to understand. Time and time again, science has disproven explicitly conservative viewpoints, from race biology to Social Darwinism to climate change and so on. But they double down because to change their perspectives risks alienating their peers, or even worse, possibly damning them to Hell.
That’s why I said what I did. Liberals are a pain in the ass and generally incapable of accomplishing much of value, but at least they typically welcome new data that may contradict a previously-held position.
